Has anyone made a saukopf mantlet for their StuG III G? I've been fiddling with the idea ever since I purchased my kit.
I think that later Gs with that mantlet just look 'purposeful'; the cat's whiskers if you will.
I've made one in 1/10 scale; cast in aluminium, years ago and was thinking of scaling it up or perhaps working with someone who's
possibly printed on up on a 3D printer.

Re: Saukopf mantlet
So, there's good news and bad news...
The good news is I am the new custodian of the Spearhead Armour castings and masters, or at least some of them.
The bad news is it's all in my storage facility and I shattered my collarbone on Wednesday in a cycling accident and can't drive for a few weeks.

Owww! Sound horribly painful. Hope you mend well and quickly. Tanks and parts are secondary to one's health and well being....Adrian Harris wrote: ↑Fri Aug 12, 2022 5:40 pmSo, there's good news and bad news...

Re: Saukopf mantlet
Thanks guys. Fortunately it hasn't been painful, just very inconvenient.
