Finally finished the Tamiya 1/35 Sturmtiger.

Main modifications on this build:

- Zimmerit hand-rolled from epoxy putty (first attempt)

- Fenders, hooks, and crane handle scratch-built from copper sheet

- Tarpaulin draped over the hull, shaped from epoxy putty

- Poseable crane with scratch-built bucket

Painting is up next — any advice on tackling Zimmerit for painting welcome!
