Album info
This is the Sturmpanzer IV 1st Series (Overhauled) from Tristar in 1/35th scale. I am pretty happy with the end result, not so happy with my photos or maybe I should say the composition of my photos. Anyway, here she is in her full glory. I did have a couple of setbacks, with the main being me dropping it. It was a stupid drop, but a lucky break. Nothing grand and I could recover from it. The zimmerit was done with Milliput 2-part putty.
It is finished as StuPa of the 3 SturmPanzer-Abteilung 216. The base colour is Gunze Dunkelgelb and camouflage lines are Gunze Olivgrun. There was some mottling over the black base with Tamiya Dark Yellow and then I did the blend coat with Gunze's Olivgrun. I don't feel the effect is there or perhaps it's gone under all that weathering. I used artist's oils for weathering and various weathering products for mud, dirt and dust.
