Hello friends,

I have built this Dragon box recently :



I couldn't make a WIP thread here, had to buy another camera, sorry for that guys.

Btw, it's an out of the box project, quite straightforward but I had to collect more information on the internet, because the manual wasn't that clear now and then. Wartime pictures told me that the side skirts were mostly lost in battle action.

Ok, here is the finished tank, I hope you like it :

























And this is a lovely photo, isn't it ?


Thank you for your attention ! I always appreciate comment to improve my skills. Greetz G.

Hi Guy!

Looks good!
I like the camo, it must have been a lot of brushwork! I know it's not an easy job to paint hard-edge camo in 1/72. My only problem is that the green does look more like gray, but that could be your camera cheating with colors.

I would have added some more dust on the lower parts of the hull, but it's rather a personal preference.

Hello Peter, it must have been the camera, I used Tamya's Acrylic dark green for the green areas. The Panzer will be placed in a small diorama. When finished I'll make a new thread in Diorama section. G.

A very nice build indeed!

I do like the paintbrush work you did, looks very smooth. I have been trying to decide which Dragon Jagpanzer to buy and your build has just decided it for me!

Still have the Matchbox 1:76 kit I did as a 14 year old.

cheers

Mike

lovely. just lovely. congratz there guy.

Oh my God--this is 1/72?!?! That's a fabulous looking build there! It'd fool me as 1/35!
Mice paint, and very good weathering!

Hello Karl,

I like the Dragon Pro Armor Series, detail is quite good. It's made just out of the box, no aftermarket parts involved here. And the fun I had building and painting was just great !
And for a small price...
Thanks for your reply sir ! G.

Hi Guy,
Excellent job! I really like this vehicle, I have it to build with the Eduard etch set. your pics have inspired me to launch into it.

regards,
Steve

Succes Steve, it's a nice looking model the Jagdpanzer IV, quite aggressive !
At the beginning of this project, I wasn't exactly in love with the Jagdpanzer model, I've built a Tiger I and a Jagdpanther before this one, so it also came out rather small !!! But as I was working on it...just love it now, and I'm planning to make more of them ! G.

Guy,

Excellent build! Convincing job on the camo and weathering. Like all the pics you selected for us to see. Looking forward to seeing this beauty on a dio.

Keep up the good work.

Definitely one of my favorite AFV's! Looks great, and excellent work on the camo at that scale!
