Stug

Dammit,  I hate resin models they're so hard to fix if they're molded wrong.  This is a Warlord Games resin Stug G and that's right, it's wrong. I've had this for year's and hated the original paint job, it didn't match any of my later models and just looked shoddy. So in a fit of positivity I pulled it to bits (carefully), stripped it and started again.  It was at the this point that I remembered that the tracks were curved and no amount of hot water baths and gentle bending would restraighten them.
So in the end it was a little green stuffing to the rescue,  I don't think you can tell they're bent anymore. 
I added the schurzen this time round as I like the flat space for the camo scheme and decals.
I don't think Warlord make these anymore with the introduction of their plastics range so I'll hopefully never have to deal with bent resin again (yeah right).
