I know I haven't been the most active member recently, but that doesn't mean I haven't done any modeling. The hobby shop here got the Tristar Sturmpanzer IV in stock recently so I decided to give it a go.
The kit itself is really nice, but the complicated suspension construction slowed things down a bit. After that hurdle the more fun part started. I had some issues (partly due to my own stupidity) with the front plate hatches. The mayor superstructure plates went together rather nicely. I added some flame cut texture to the ends of the plates. Some welds were missing and some needed boosting up a bit. All good fun as the joints are simple and it was a really straight forward matter. The tracks surprised with how easy they were to assemble. No other blemished except the two sprue connection points. I have added one picture with the shurtzen all applied, but I think I will most probably leave only some on in the end.
