That's coming along real nice 'Admiral' Bob!!! Great help from the guys here as seams are always a PITA and hard to get smooth. The only advice I can give on this matter is............
Build a Stug...No seams, so no probs Buddy!!!.......Just a thought...............

Loadsa seams, just call 'em welds and don't file 'em flat! Ask Bob if he's still on board! (Pardon the pun!)

The session started not to well, how you ask??
Collected the airbrush, masking tape, paint etc. Opened the modelling room switched on compressor and connected airbrush then started to mix Mr color. Thought the compressors taking its time, nothing my luck its decided to pack it in!! Then corner of my eye noticed the moisture drain plug on the bench!!!!!!!!!
So off we go again, again not the correct colour. Masked the upper grey and sprayed dark grey to the lower hull
Very pleased with the masking effort but a few areas show were I did not spray the lighter grey down the hull enough.
I am not going to try to repair these, I am just happy to be back at the bench and delighted with the new room, for me money well spent.

Used a fine point pen to hopefully show the vent holes?
A pen was the only way I could think off colouring them in, using a brush would have got me on the phone to the samaritans!!
Some may need redoing once dry
