Its always nice to watch Andys building. Real professional work, going a->b easily understanding way can educate same time. One best model builders on KZread.

I've seen some comments to the effect that the assembling/glueing part is only to get to the painting part. I find glooing parts together very theraputic, especially when they fit well together (like this on here). Very good vid Andy.

@William Koppos - I could not agree more! When I read the comments on this and other modelling videos, I get the district impression that building the model is seen as a chore and a lot of people would be happy to buy a completed model and just paint it!

Yes! A build! So very happy!

Pre-ordered mine right after your initial announcement. Super stoked now that I watched the video!

Really looking forward to getting mine. This one will be easier to built than the Dragon in 1/35th. I hope you show the marking options in the next video. The aftermarket will go wild with this one.

That is one beautiful looking kit and model. I love how everything just snaps into place, so you can very easily test fit each piece. Can't wait for part 2

Thanks Andy this is going to be a big help when my preorder arrives. Looking forward to your painting and weathering video.

I preordered mine as soon as I saw the first video. This looks so good and very helpful tips Andy. Thank you.

AMAZING! Model and that original tank tread that they sent you is also awesome. Thank you for the builds.

Outstanding build video Andy. Great looking kit and, when done right, looks like a pretty good step by step build for the modeler. Many of us appreciate you still taking the time to do these construction/painting/weathering videos. Your success story is truly one for the ages and very briefly meeting you at the IPMS Nats and watching you work your vendor table you’re still the humble guy that knows his roots. Thanks again and always look forward to the next video release😊

I can’t wait to get this. So freaking cool. Thanks for the video Andy

At last! A ANDY build! Man I have missed your builds, the classical music segments are like the return of an old friend... now the kit itself, although not my era ( I’m a modern armour man theses days...) have to say it’s beautifully designed and put together....imagine the aftermarket kits for drivers interior and engine decks!! A stunning build and very useful for those who buy this....welcome back big fella, it’s been waaaaaaaaaaay to long!

The fighting compartment will need aftermarket too. Even just looking through the hatches, you can see that lots of items are missing.

Thats massive!! love the track!!

Andy that's an exciting build love that Armor!!! Wow 1/16 th what a beast !! Thank you for getting back into Armor building Cant wait for the painting and finishing effects!!! Carry on Andy !!! Excellent !!!

Add it to my Christmas wish list. Great timing on their part.

Pre-ordered mine when you first showed the kit. Looks really nice and can't wait to start it!

Things have certainly come a long way since the Airfix models I used to build in the 50's another great video, and what detail in that model and you make it look so easy !!

Great video, thank you. Looking forward to receiving mine in December!

So glad I preordered one. Really looking forward to this build.

Masterfully done tracks, Mr Andy:)

Love this tank, this tank really took off after they changed the gun for sure!! Awesome build as always thanks for all ur ways u show how paint

Excellent presentation. Thank you Andy.

Awesome video Andy!...cant wait for part 2.....and cant wait till my kit arrives!

One of my favourite German tanks..gotta love the stug.great build andy

Watching this build 2 thought comes to mind , First I really want to get this kit as it looks amazing and second . The fit looks fantastic

Beautiful detail on this bit of armour 😊👍

Great, I like Stug. III, this is beautiful!!!

Just bought this kit and the panzer 3 from you Andy. Can’t wait to put um together. Gonna use these videos to help.

Nice job Andy. Glad to see ya building again

This is a fantastic looking kit and a fantastic price cannot wait to get this kit good video Andy Steve

Looks great. Rusting job is spot on. Thanks

Awesome build

Nice looking kit. Looking forward to the paint job

Lovely, definitely one to save up for, great to building again. Mike

great build video my friend looks a fantastic kit very detailed look forward to seeing it painted thanks for sharing

Now that is a seriously impressive kit. Got to get one.

Another nice vid and build Andy, I will be getting one after seeing your vid/ buildup

Amazing

Always love your builds and reviews Andy so, informative. Just bought a 440 hundred kit collection of vintage 1960’s 70’s and 80’s, WWII kits some real nice stuff from Hawk, Aurora, Microscale, HobbyCraft etc. Keep up the great work it’s people love you that keep the hobby moving forward. That’s my speciality is buying and selling vintage kits.

This looks so cool

I’ve been waiting for years for a Stug lll G in 1/16th….Great build, l can wait to acquire this kit.

Awesome build Andy!

What a beautiful kit at a great price. Definitely gonna have to get one.Especially since I randomly ordered a couple 1/16 tank figures a few months ago that will be perfect for this kit.

Many vids show a model being built, but very few explain as thoroughly as yours. Beautifully crafted detailed kit.

That is a beautiful kit

Just ordered this from your site, will sit nicely alongside the Pz.KpFw.1 Ausf B that I am in the process of weathering, the detail on these 1/16 scale models certainly stands out.

Great start!

Allready orderd one for my collection. This thing is also big enough for a RC conversion. Great video Andy 😀

I ordered 2, 1 for me, and 1 for my Best Friend. It will be a Christmas gift!

Looks like a really nice model, with great fit and finish.

Using the real track as a backdrop for the model would make an awesome diorama! Nice build

That is one awesome build so far Andy. Looking forward to your next video.

Impressive Andy!

Great kit and review video.

The kit looks sweet. I pre-ordered one a month ago. It's going to be an awesome Christmas this year.

So happy I pre ordered mine 😀

The potential for ultra detailing is immense. Can't wait to get my grubby little Mitt's on one 😂 another great video Andy 👍

Very cool kit Andy......................... 👍👍👍

This is a awesome kit.

Had mine pre-ordered for a couple of months. Can't wait to get it and start building. Because I am 59 years old, with not too good close eyesight. I figure this kit will be easier to build and paint, than a 1/35 scale one.

This really is an exciting new build! :-)

Very interesting high quality model. Two things I must point out: the late production tracks are absolutely the same for the both the Pz.Kpfw IV and the StuG III but it was longer on the Pz.Kpfw IV by simply adding more tracks! Finally those lines on the nets are much needed fuel vents as all German tanks are highly inflammable gas!

Adam Mann is eyeing those tracks.

I really like this model . Years and years ago I had a Stug a Dragon 1/35. I'm as seriously tempted to buy this s from Andy and build this 1/16. It was the most effective AFV that the Germans had.

Is Andy pulling a Radar O'Reilly? This week he gets a section of track in the mail, next week the engine? Maybe a road wheel? This time next year is Andy gonna due a 1:1 scale Panzer III, IV or a StuG?

Hello Andy, from what I can see on other models and pictures it seems that the piece 27:35 are used to lift the vent. Very nice model. I am jealous every time I see you doing does beautiful models. Can't wait to have the space and time to do them. Great work.

No, those are the holders for the antennas when stored / not used. There are no "vents to lift" outside. In the engine bay there are shields that close off the radiators, but they are operated from within the StuG.

A great reference for the scratch-built 1/12 scale StuG IIIG I am building on my channel, thanks.

Hello Andy . I'm a new Follower of your very amazing Site but watchung your Vids for such a long time. I 've ordered my kit instantly after watch this Vid. I'm German and the Stug 3 is a historically monument in german history,despite the criminal regime whoms engineerd it. It's a wonderful peace of engeneering abilities. Fantastic Vid,keep going. With nice greets from Germany. Markus

The "real" Tracks indeed used as Armor... because they were painted in three-tone-camo.... love them :D you did a very good job on the Build, Andy !

Iam bussy 2 bild this 1 amazing tank 2 build. And happy new year Andy from Belgium.

I'm a little late to the party, but thank you for the build Andy! What an amazing kit! I do wish you had left the suspension working as that to me is a hugely attractive part of a model like this, but I understand why you didnt!

Hi Andy hope all is well and good great video again they are to hold up the grills when working on the tank as not to hit the crew as it would fall forward if not held in place. God bless to you all,

Damn, after watching this vid, I went ahead pre-order it....

マニア？コスパのバランスも納得かなぁ！配信ありがとう😉👍️🎶

Outstanding job sir! My guess as to track damage would be a Soviet 14.5mm tungsten core round fired from a PTRS or PTRD anti tank rifle. A known tactic by Russians was to aim for the tracks hoping to cause a break and aim at vision devices to blind the crew.

Super build Andy. Shame that a lot of interior detail is hidden. You keep making videos and I'll keep watching and buying.

Great deal

Been waiting for this video for awhile

Bring on the paint and weathering!

Nice kit. I think some 1/24 tanks would be a good idea . Maybe a Panzer II or T-26.

Спасибо за интересную видео! К зажелению бункер Zeppelin не ходил-тогда туда вход был запрещен...Только лазили в Майбахе и там действительно все етажи были сорванные...Помню,что искали проход в ниже,но все было забито каменным мусором.Так что наши саперы свою работу отлично делали...

Wow.....the largest scale model tanks I built as a kid in the 60's were 1:32 scale and I thought that was huge.

That's a pretty sick gift! And the Russian heavy mg was the dishka in 12.7mm basically Russian. 50. It's deadly seeing that strike on the track as folks don't model the heavy MG strikes on their armour just lighter bullets. But with a hole that big one one could put some serious damage on a kit.

Super kit Andy - and a nice build to your credit. Was wondering if a "saukopf" mantlet option would be in the offing. Would give modelers a choice for building the variant of the StuG.
