As crew now done I can consider this finished …….at last. PSC Stug III kit upper hull mated to a PSC Pz IV lower hull and running gear. Adler crew.

Not bad, though track sidewalls are a little high?

Thanks guys. 15mm and 28mm Fanatik not quite sure what you mean, but always tricky drawing conclusion about anything from a drawing your assuming the artist has got it correct in the first place. In that drawing the tracks look way too close to the mudgaurd line to me the littlest bit of debris picked up by the tracks is going to jam the return rollers. All I can say is the side skirts look in the right place and their size is based on the Revell H kit, so works for me. L |

Agreed. There are plenty of scale plans of various types of Pz IVs on the interweb and they all have more track clearance than that picture (or is is a model?). |

I see what you mean Martin, looking closer the tracks look more model like than drawing but the periscope glass is really well done if a model. L |

Skirts look spot on, the drawing shows the rails on which the (taller) skirts were hung |

Fairly sure that picture is of a 1/35 model. This one link |
