75th Anniversary of Battle of Monte Cassino and Northern Italy (Army Build)
German STuH
The German’s had a few assault guns running around in Italy including a few STuHs (like STuGs but fitted with a shorter barreled Howitzer) so I’ve put together a platoon.
A base coat of Dunkelgelb followed by some light green and medium brown lines airbrushed over create the cammo pattern – very easy to do with the airbrush. After the decals, a painted on coat of dip and matt varnish provides the depth.
Tracks were a hull red dry brushed with gunmetal.
Once again, chipping was applied with a sponge, first a black-brown paint followed by a light gunmetal on the edges.
Finally, quality low weald ground clay mixed with pva is dabbed on for the mud splatters. All covered with another coat of matt varnish to seal it all down. Quick and easy and ready for the table top.
