Yup…started these today:
Let’s see how this goes !!!
I started this BuildLog at the old site S.P.A.M. --self propelled artillery mayhem –
With these…
these were also finished :
Anyway,still a lot of work (and fun ) ahead, let’s see how that goes!!!
Looking forward to seeing how these turn out, have a Grille on my shelf of doom.
I’ve made the top one. I have to take my hat off to you buying additional PE! I didn’t even use all the PE provided in the box; I baulked at the tie-downs for camo netting, they were so small I was sure to lose several, so decided to not bother rather than having an incomplete set! Overall it’s a good kit with all the usual DML provisos - instructions!!!
I’ve also done the Tamiya Wespe, which despite its age is a cracking little kit. Other options are now available from the Big T including an “Italian Campaign” vehicle. The camo scheme on the featured kit box is spurious. It is based on one shown in Panzer Colours 1, which calls out Panzergrau and green, but the picture is taken of a 9SS “Hohenstaufen” vehicle in Northern France in the winter of 1943-44 prior to the deployment to the Ukraine. Since these weren’t issued until late in the year, they were almost certainly Dunkelgelb base with brown and green overspray; the confusion is due to the contrasty photo taken in winter light. We even know the commander’s name - Sturmann Hartmann!
Very good info !!
Mine was a simple German Grey , no camo.
But you are correct,it’s a great little kit from Tamyia
