| Subject: | Re: StuG III Ausf G tracks. |  |

| From: | Christophe Jacquemont | |
I think Winterketten are most likely to be on a very early StuG III Ausf G
(earlier type than Tamiya's, can be done with Tamiya kit and CMD conversion, or
good old scratchbuilding).
Ostketten would have been used on late production StuGs, therefore more
suitable for the Dragon/DML StuG III Ausf G or its clones (Gunze Sangyo,
Revell). 1/35 Ostketten are hard to find Cromwell was the only manufacturer to
do some (resin lengths) but they are now out of production.
Cheers,
Christophe
