What A Tanker!
Panzer IV... Like this one more
Panzer IV with schützen damage (above) compared to the Panzer IV I sold (below).
Used my same method for my the paint job. The schützen was still slightly awkward to put on as I recall it being the first time, but found it easier the second time around. Painted the schützen and the tank separately. Cut away the paint at the places I wanted to connect the struts on and it glued in place fine enough. The instructions said glue the struts to the side of the tank and then glue the skirt to the support. This was a pain last time so I just glued the struts to the skirt, did a rough dry fit against the tank and let it set. As long as I kept the struts at 90 degrees to the skirt, my worry that there would be floating struts and no way to glue it neatly to the tank was a needless one.
