Title: Stug REME ARV
Post by: Buzzbomb on March 28, 2016, 01:25:23 PM

A modelling buddy found this photo some years back.

Some discussion by others much more learned than I on these things,  as to whether it was an Artillery FO charger or, given the stuff on the engine deck an ARV of some sort.
I like the ARV plan

Over the past 18 months a reasonable facsimile of this has started to evolve out of a pretty ordinary Dragon Stug

Well after a burst of wild enthusiasm, we have burst into frenzied activity and ended  up here

Still some more weatheration to do and fix the figures up a bit.
The skirts are way too short, as they were based on a Pz III set template and Stug skirts are evidently deeper.
Maybe fixed in the next release.
Or not.

Cheers
