Next up 16 Stug 3s, Stug 4s and Stu 42s. All primed and base coated so far. I'm sure Ushcha would approve of them at this point, or maybe the paint isn't slopped on messy enough?

Ed, and interesting side-by-side comparison of dunkelgelbs.

The Stugs are probably my favorite piece of German armor.

Mine too 79th – Tonne fur Tonne, the best German AFV of the war me thinks.

And I believe the highest single AFV produced by the German army.

The highest was the 251 halftrack if you count it as an AFV. Painting up these Stugs is going to be put on hold for a while, got my last order from Arrowhead Miniatures yesterday or Saturday. 25 vehicles that need building. :)

I don't personally count it as such but I could not say what the actual definition is :(

Some good numbers on German AFV production

Great work Ed – and that's a lot of glued on wheels too!

Marc33594 Supporting Member of TMP15 Aug 2023 10:31 a.m. PST

Arrowhead getting a bit too pricey? Always nice castings though.

Thanks Dave. Marc, no they are going out of business and selling off the remaining stock at 20% off.

Marc33594 Supporting Member of TMP16 Aug 2023 7:15 a.m. PST

Such a pity. They did do such excellent work. Thanks for passing that along Ed.
