If I can see his brain all over Vespe..hatch open. For PG 13 hatch closed.
Sorry but I like that hatch open.

Wespe Completed... along with PzII Series II. Will release after BETA TEST finished... I know, you guys want the hatch closed... I thought it was a nice touch to see the driver...

We could say that this one is the summer version and a possible hatch closed version would be the winter version

Why not make two versions, one with hatch open and another one with hatch closed?
Very nice model btw.

This hatch discussion is funny in a way. Sometimes I follow these long detailed discussions about historical accuracy of models, discussions at an expert level that can be hard to follow (at least for me ). However when it comes to this hatch open/closed position for which it's very obvious that the hatch should be closed, the historical accuracy does not seem to matter a bit. I have no saying in this but allow me to make a suggestion. Vonosten is unstoppable, he will skin this great looking Wespe with or without open hatch. So if Gagarin plans to skin this beauty then I would let him decide.

Typically, such a dialogue (as it is now with the hatch) occurs between the modeler and artist, in the manufacture of, or correct the model. It is quite trivial - "working moment". For the average user it does not matter, it takes the finished product, and does not ask about such details.

I don't care anymore about the hatch or realism of it. I leave decision to maker. Below 2 units with open hatch in combat.

Sztyrlic, you seem to have a talent for picking out great looking units/skins

Ok... message received... I can make three different versions of the Wespe. Buttoned up Driver top hatch open Driver front sight open Funny how the little details get so much discussion. But I like it because it shows the attention paid to historical issues. Actually, the driver was in a difficult spot and would never have hatches open while the gun was firing. The weapon crew would at least be protected by the weapon chamber once the breech was closed. The driver would catch all of the blow-back from the round leaving the barrel. So... since I really don't want to start a poll on this, please continue to sound off on the topic and how about you guys can choose which one to use after release. All three will be included...
