About product

Side skirts (Schürzen) for the Sturmgeschütz IV 1:35 (Aber)

An Aber photo-etched metal detail set in 1:35 scale. It holds the Schürzen side protective plates for the Sturmgeschütz IV assault gun, including their true thickness and brackets. They replace the thicker plastic skirts and make it possible to render bent or missing pieces as well, as was common on vehicles in service.

The real subject

The Sturmgeschütz IV (StuG IV) was a German assault gun on the Panzer IV chassis from the second half of the war. The Schürzen side plates protected the flanks and the running gear against armor-piercing and shaped charge ammunition; in the field they were often missing or damaged.

Building and painting tips

The photo-etched metal parts are thin and small, so separate them with a sharp knife on a cutting surface and bend them over a metal ruler or a photo-etch bending tool. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), as cement for plastic does not hold on metal. Degrease the metal before painting and go over it with a coat of primer so that the finish holds; at the end a fine wash and pigments help to pick out the detail.

Who the set is for

  • modelers building the StuG IV in 1:35 scale
  • builders who want thin metal skirts with realistic brackets
  • advanced modelers who enjoy rendering wear and missing parts
  • collectors who want to lift a model with fine photo-etched detail

This is a detail accessory, not a standalone model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
