Maddoxx77 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Here she is, my finished StuG III Ausf. G. with full interior. If you want you can check out the buildlog. ( i don't know how to add the link 🤣 ) I'm very proud of her. I spent alot of time building, painting, correcting mistakes, learning, researching, weathering etc. Anyhow, here are the pics. Enjoy and feedback is more than welcome. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echen Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 This fulfils all the promise of the WIP - it was plainly going to turn out to be a great build. It has come together very well! 👏👏👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef N. Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 And you should be proud of that. You've done a cracking job on that with a nice amount of dirt, damage and detailing. Well done.👏👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm...... well... i kinda glued the tarp to the glacierplate so i can't remove the topside 🤪 I realized my mistake when i was making the photo's. Today i will try to carefully cut it loose so i can take the top off. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrancisGL Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Hi Madoxx77, A great result, a lot of attention to detail, with great dedication to the model. I hope it can be "opened" to see how it finally turned out inside. A comment, not a criticism, with a constructive spirit... I don't know if it will be the photos (which can be very annoying when taking them, since matching the tone of the model is not easy), that they look a bit dark (at least for my monitor), or that the model it really looks like this, kind of dark looking. Not a bad thing per se, but much of the pre-weathering work can be lost... In my models, I try that when I finish the modulation, it looks clearer than I would like, well, for sure, if we are going to do several processes later (washing, chipping, etc...), to end up with a weathering something intense, in the end, everything will take on a dark aspect, which even hides details that were there before, or are difficult to appreciate.... I remember that at the beginning of my return, a veteran told me that, it also seems that the eye prefers warm colors to cold ones... or something similar, basically, that it tried not to darken the model unnecessarily. On the other hand, I like it very much, and the interior must look great. Besides, I have seen in the WIP, that you have made a great model too, the MX-77 BBQ Station at 1/1....what a great job, 😱I want my brother to see it, he loves tools and DIY I don't have room for one of these though...😅 Until the next model, Cheers and TC Francis.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As metioned before i made a mistake with the tarp. I glued the front to the glacierplate of the main gun. When i was taking the photo's i realized that was stupid since i left the topside of the fighting compartment free of glue so i could open it up...... I will try to carefully cut the small bit that is glued to the front. Haven't had the time to do that right now. When succesfull i will post pictures here. 1 hour ago, FrancisGL said: Hi Madoxx77, A great result, a lot of attention to detail, with great dedication to the model.

It's part photo, part wash. Since i based the final look on refference photo's where the Stug was looking wet and muddy i tried to replicate that in the model with a dark umber oil filter. I tried expirimenting with the light color while taking the photo's, i'm very new to that and i don't have the right equipment ( yet ) Still you are right about the darkness on the photo's so in my next build i have to take that in to consideration while applying filters.

Rob Maynard Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 That looks brilliant! Glad you were able to carefully detach the Tarp, it would have been a shame to hide all that internal work! 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muchmirth Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The second set of pics do it justice and the inside looks great, really battered (but in a good way if you know what I mean) top job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Robin Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 That looks how "real" AFVs looked. They were dirty, grimy and covered in c**p. You've nailed it. The tarp laid across the upper parts just kinda sets it off for me. I like things that catch the eye and add a bit of something to a build.
