Hi all,
Here are some pics of my finished (I think) Panther Ausf F. Just in time for AMPS East! In summary, it's the Tamiya Panther G base model, CMD conversion kit, Fruil tracks, Royal Model etch and resin as well as scratch building.
I have to thank Don Hoffman for the IR base parts and Ted Nichols for the refrence material.
Constructive comments welcomed.
Matt
PS, someone PLEASE tell me if the dreaded red Xes show again. Thanks!

A nice clean build indeed. I like the IR gear you have placed on it. Is "Maria" painted? Transfer? or decal?
Cheers

Hi Dave,
Maria is hand painted. That's my wifes name:) I put it there hoping I could get some brownie points. It didn't work lol. Looks like I'm going to be busy this Sunday with the honey do list!
