biffa,

Thanks man! I think dupes said you’re the one wrestling with the snow chains or starting some chain brigade. Did you see the ones I put on my Krupp? Go check them out in my post in armor (Completed projects: Stug III…)

How did you make your chains. Have any photos to share?

Jester75,

Thanks man!!! From your list of “on the bench”, you ARE a StuG fan! Ever built a Stug III Ausf G Early? That’s on my list. Any pictures to share?

I like those lists at the end of your bio’[tup]…I’m stealing that idea and adding it to my bio. I think it lets people know your tastes, might get conversations going.

Here’s to Stug’s!!![#toast]

Sure, Ill post the links to the posts as to not steal your thread here…

Jester75,

Just to clarify…not referencing you’re work from my bio’ in any way. I just really like how you tell what you’re working on currently, and what you have plans to build. Great idea![:)]

That is really an outstanding job of weathering. If you decide to do another winter camo one, I for one would like to see you do a step by step tutorial.

Snake Doc’,

Thanks for the compliment. I’m in the “Winter Warriors” group build, I"ll do a tutorial on my Panther G if there’s enough interest by the forum members. I have been getting some real nice feed back on the Stug and would be honored to share how I do weathering and winter camo’ on that project.
