Dave,
Simply awesome man! I did the same things as you did on a Tamiya JagdPanther and it took me 2 years to finish it! Looking forward to see it painted and hopefully you will do SBS on the painting

Once more, I love them so much when they're like this. Are you sure you're going to paint it?
Bravo!

Looks great Dave!!! Are those the kit tracks? I'm working on the same kit.. it's on hold a bit till I finish my Honey...
I also have the Aber etch.. this will be my first time working with Aber.. I saw on the instructions that on the fenders yours supposed to used a pen to do the indentations.. was that step pretty easy? Or do you recommend a different tool than a pen (I was thinking my scriber)...
Looks awsome!!! Keep the pictures coming!!!

Hi Tuna, Thanks.
The Tracks are DML, but I got a bad set of tracks with lots of broken pieces, hence I am using Tamiya ones to make up the rest. That's the black tracks.
The fender thing is very easy to do, probably the easiest in the whole build, do it on a piece of wood or something, I use a ball pen to do it. HTH.

thanks for the info Dave.. I'll try wood and ball point pen... should be on that project by next week!!
Boy those tracks look great detail wise! are the DML as nice (I suppose I'll have to check when I get home from work).... I have a set of Friul tracks.. but I figure if the DML's look nice.. I can use em on the Jagdpanther and then use the Friul's on my Tamiya Panther G..
again, thanks for the details on your project!
