DML 6454 StuH or StuG... I don't know yet

[panzerjager]

I don't know is this GB is still open; if not, please somebody move the thread to my workbench.
Well, I think this is an excellent kit, with a marvelous zimmerit engraved on plastic, and in many parts. You can see reviews here:

There is no much to show of the building








The problem with this kit is the wrong color schemes/units, as I discussed here:

More advances:

Left side track and some interiors:








One of the fail of Dragon's kit: the fenders support, MIAG style instead of ALkket style. I've tried to fix this mistake using the parts provided and, of course, plastic cell phone card

Little advances: right hand side tracks and some details on radios. I think this is a kommand vehicle, as it carries Fu 5 + Fu 16

Thanks Andreas, but...that picture is not from a 7,5 cm StuG III?

I got this picture, I think from Spielberger book, and I see the Jari Lievonen's StuH too:
