As I’m still not sure how long I have my desk for this will be straight obb. My first ever Stug so as long as it basically resembles the box pic I shall be happy.

The old inaccurate Tamiya kit re-boxed - will you be correcting it or just OOB Mick?

Box says 167, instructions say 163 as Tamiya and only 20mm !

No time I’m afraid Simon so if it’s Stug shaped when I’m done it will do for me

 

[SimonT]

Fair enough

I spent ages rebuilding one - chopped in half vertically and horizontally, moved the bogies, thickened the thin wheels etc etc, then went and dropped a helping hands support thingy on it

Didn’t do it a lot of good

 

[Bobthestug]

Bet the swear box was full Simon

 

[Paintguy]

I'm on my first Stug too Mick, so we're in it together.
