Early this morning I remembered, and looked out this Airfix Stug III.
I think I can give this a blast and 'blitz' it today.
As of now I have 16 hours. Can I do It?
I am determined to finish at least one GB!

The Renault FT defeated me. I may go back to it some time.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Breakfast break time; [09:30]
It looks like this; wheels have tyres painted. I'll let the glue harden a bit on the main construction, then slap the paint on.

Lunch time;
Just have to wait till that paint dries. The downside of using enamels.

And yet another one to hunt down. Hope the tracks are OK.
Great progress. I expect to see another Blitz in February.

Finished at 22.12 approx;
I used decals from the spares. The kit ones had no white and the numbers were a bit smudged.
