TommyF Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Here is my entry for the Panzer III GB - a little 1/72 Trumpeter StuG III. This will be my first StuG and as I know very little about them and the Panzer III in general I'm really looking forward to reading up as the build progresses. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hi Tommy. Welcome to the GB. Great to have you here. That looks like a very nice kit. I'm looking forward to following your build. Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Welcome to the build Tommy, good to see a 1/72 kit to balance out the 1/35 builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxbat Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I'll follow this one with interest, I do like the early StuGs when they were still infantry support and not ersatz Jagdpanzers Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hi Tommy. Hope you are well. I was just wondering if you have had chance to make a start on your build yet? Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaStix Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Hi Tommy. I'd say that looks like excellent progress!! The detail looks good for 1/72 too. Looking very smart! Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyF Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 My first StuG completed 🙂 Plus first attempt at weathering (watercolour paint and pastel pencils) on any model. Lots to learn there but I really enjoyed this build. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Fantastic job Tommy, nicely done and those outdoor pictures brings it all to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Stuart Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Looks good Tommy. Heads up, depending on brand, the binder in pastel pencils (and ordinary pastels) can be softened or dissolved in water, which can give you some interesting effects. Try experimenting.
