- Detachable (removable) Schürzen (side armour)
- Optional rear stowage rack
- Optional spare road wheels
- Optional periscope
- 3 sprues / 54 parts


The almighty StuG III Ausf G with Saukopf gun mantlet – Late production

…and with Schürzen (side armour)

Alongside with her big brother… a Panther Ausf G!

Size comparison of the two…

Some more close-up images!



Some group images with several SdKfz 251/1 Ausf D variants…




…and finally as a StuH 42 with a 105mm howitzer!



If things go well with production, the StuG III Ausf G will be available around late March!

I see spots before my eyes!

Kidding aside, nice looking vehicles and paint schemes.

Looks great! 1/56? A scale I've never tried yet.
