Yes, it's pretty nice, although a bit basic. I've been looking a at sturmtigers online. Some have muzzle weights some don't. Same with fenders. One restored ST has a simple flame-cut ring for the weight. Some show parts of the fenders missing. I think the subject allows many possibilities. A 1/16 version would be fun.😀 Paul

This came in the mail.. It's a Sturmtiger from Tamiya (35177). Also got a set of zimmerit decals from DEF model. The kit has individual link tracks. I'm going to get started on this right away. The Def Model zimmerit looks promising. Anyway, I hope this is useful for some . However it goes I'll post build pictures.

I have a set for the Tamiya Sturmtiger and I bought a set for Tamiya's Brummbar. I was able to get the Sturmtiger using points on Amazon... Otherwise I would have bought The RFM kit. I'll look at the instructions tomorrow when my Sturmtiger arrives. Apparently, most Sturmtigers had Zimmerit during the war.....not the Museum examples however. I thought it would be worth a try😀 Thanks...

Hey, has anyone used these products ? I saw that the Tamiya sets you have to cut the Zimmerit from the backing while the Def Model product are water-slide decals. I bought the DEF MODEL. Any comments/advice would be helpful. Paul

Saw an "unboxing video" of that kit...looks good and the Hampden is certainly an unusual looking aircraft.

A virtual transcript how clever!!!!!

Nice work. Which F4 kit is that?

Bravo my thoughts exactly. 😀

Well, or buy another kit...start over. I saw the same kit on EBAY for under $30. US. It looks like a nice kit for its age. I considered getting one the other day. After watching the video I mentioned. Then this build appeared. I don't know about British Armor.

A situation so much like the video I watched on You tube about the same kit.....is this a common mistake?😀 Everything sounds so familiar.....

Sorry to hear of the mix-up with front armor. Hope you can fix it. Was surprised to see the external drum fuel tanks---I mean, how Soviet ! BTW.......where did you get those blue clamps ? Paul

Very nice😀 I have that one in my stash......Inspirational build. Thanks

Really sorry to hear this John. , but I understand when building becomes a chore why continue? Modeling is meant to be fun.... I have a few projects on hold right now....waiting for painting. Circumstances don't allow me to get to my bench for now. In the meantime,---Feeding Squirrels----real Squirrels. I also have been collecting OOP and older Tamiya kits-----ones I missed the first time around. People might not understand or approve of this, but I enjoy doing this as well as building. Hope you may have a change of heart----or start another project. as I enjoy your builds.

Thanks Carl😀 Inside the box there's a form for the Tamiya Club of Canada membership.

I am sorry to hear of this Hubert. Sending hopes and prayers and wishing for the best Outcome.
