Tanks & Trolls

Panther

Athough it had a disastrous combat debut, the Panther matured to become one of the best all-round German tanks of the war.

Conceived as a response to the Russian T-34, the Panther featured sloped frontal armour, wide tracks, a powerful engine and a good gun. As a result, it had good mobility, especially on rough terrain, and was available in large enough numbers to make a difference in many battles'

This model is the Newest from tamiya, RC full option Panther.

I have added my own Zimmerit paste, made from decorators paste and several secret spices, great on tanks, even better on chicken!

Just about finished, just to add little touches like the crows feet antenna, etc

As you can see, I added a few extra detail parts to the stock kit such as skirts, spare tracks/wheel, zimmerit	These winter camo's are starting to grow on me	This one has really been in the wars with bazooka and small arms scars
the sooty engine deck is a nice contrast against the white I reckon	Top down view	The pointy end
Johan and Adolf have a breather	Klinkerhoffen checks his AA streetmap
Little brush work on the tools	The blunt end	Spare wheel is actually 1/15 scale but if you dont tell anybody I won't
Notice the areas where the Zim coating has chipped	That coat looks snug	Adolf does his Tommy Cooper impression
Hmmm, looks almost like a milky bar	Messy end	just can't get rid of em can we?
