Thx for your kind comment, yes, the kit has an interior, which consists of the combat chamber, the projectile supports, a seat, a steering wheel, the projectiles, and the back of the mortar, except for that part, the supports, and the floor, perhpas, Is very rudimentary, apart, that once mounted, you would not see anything or very little ...

Many thanks for your like and kind comments, it is very possible, because it is one of my first kits completed since returning to hobby after many years ...I think that now I would do something better with him, because I have more materials (I did not even know) and something more skill, maybe, although they are very different obviously, you can see differences between Stürm and M48 which is the last kit I have finished...

Badder Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Just popped in after a few months to remind myself how excellent your Sturmtiger is Francis. Super, smashing, lovely. Rearguards, Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super, smashing, lovely. Rearguards, Badder I am the first surprised, has already passed the 4000 views, I do not forget your advice with the fender, to make it correct and that makes this success is also a little bit yours. I'm reasonably well, I hope you are too, thinking that it is coming soon, and it's just that when you have more than one project to shoot, I find it very difficult to decide for myself ... Your diorama is going well, too much for me, I would love to do something similar, but for now I find it imposible. Many thanks for your kind comments again, cheers Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job - I wouldn't touch an italeri kit with a barge pole... Many thanks for your kind comments, the damage in the Zimm, as in this case were pieces of plastic "equal" to the sides of the vehicle, once stuck in place, with a cutter, in random places and more likely to appear chipping, "carving" some damage, and once painted, I have used gray primer (it is denser than paint, although I imagine it would also work), to paint them. Although I'm not 100% sure, I think the right color was that ... gray. It cost me a lot of work that the two parts, the barge and the hull, will be "fitted" as it should, but I think that in the end I got it ...

sonofjim Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Francis superb job all around sir . A perfect balance between paint finish colour and weathering, the model remains bright and interesting to the eye but weathered realistically . Your work emphasises the brutish look of this awesome machine . . Jim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks for your kind comments, i'm gad you like it, This kit is one of the first (maybe the 4th ??), which I did after resuming the hobby again, and although they are very different models, you may notice the difference between the Stürm and the M48A3 Patton which is the last one I have complete with more resources at my disposal and IHMO a little more skill ...
