The Sturmpanzer IV “Brummbär” (2 Viewers)

[tmanthegreat]

I’ve not seen anyone post pics of War Park’s new Brummbär Assault Gun yet, so here are some of my little display with the vehicle. The model is a good effort and has some nice features like opening hatches and rolling tracks. The painting band weathering are better than on War Park’s Normandy Tiger I tank. I’m surprised they didn’t add schurzen panels and racks. the crew figures, which come in a separate set from the Brummbär, are very well done. I really like the “thinner”/better-scaled MG-34 the gunner is holding. It even has the hanging ammo belt. Overall, the Brummbär is a nice addition to War Park’s lineup of WWII German AFVs.

Another superb scene Tristan, top notch

A very realistic scene Tristan, that model has some terrific detail.

I have the TGM version but wondering if I should upgrade to the Warpark version as the open hatches certainly add to the scene.

Can you provide some comparrison photos with the TMG model as the only issue with me would be size differences as I understand the Warpark models are small like First Legion Armoured Vehicles. However I do have a Warpark Nashorn and it blends ok with my TGM and other smaller/more accurate 1/30 scale stuff, so maybe its size won't be much of an issue.

Every War Park tank I have is larger than its First Legion or TGM equivalent. The War Park Panzer IV is slightly bigger than the TGM Panzer IV, and since the Sturmpanzer IV shares the same hull as the Panzer IV, if I were a betting man I'd say the War Park Sturmpanzer IV is just slightly larger than the TGM model (or at the least the same size).

Thank you for the info.

Thanks OzDigger! I’ve got the TGM Brummbar as well, but it’s packed away out in my garage at the moment. Echoing what Hunter Rose said, the War Park Brummbar may be slightly larger, but my first impression is that they’re pretty close… If I can get to my TGM model easily enough, I’ll try to post some comparison shots of the two vehicles.

The opening hatches on the War Park Brummbar are definitely an improvement, though I like that TGM included the schurzen side armor and racks on their model.

Nice one Tristan, I’ve been ‘on the fence’ regards this vehicle, will have to take another look

Really like the stone wall and tree used on the scenic base.

Thanks Ken! The wall and trees are JG Miniatures products (though Sheffield Miniatures makes the same things now as well). They’re very useful diorama accessories
