Not a bad job overall for your second attempt. Like how your camo job turned out, as well as the weathering on the Panther and her tracks. The portion of the tracks coming off the drive sprockets looks a little too rounded, but good overall. Great job, thanks for sharing your work.
How do you like the bigger scales? 1/25th compared to 1/35th, then your plans to tackle a 1/16th T-34/85...wow!![]()
Cheers -
Thanks Tim. To be honest the only reason I kind a like the larger scales is that they are a little easier to work on,the only draw back is they seem to lack some of the detail that you get in 1/35th and the selection is very very limited. Oh Yeah! they take upa lot of SPACE too!!! My first build was Dragons Pz.Kpfw. ll Ausf F . Man that was a small model .Little did I know that in reality It was a small tank. I thought all 1/35th were that small. I do have a couple models in 1/35th that are a lot bigger than my first build so I'll
get to them after I finish This T/34. This T/34 is going to take a little time .It seems to be quite detailed in the interior. Should be fun!!! ( I hope )
Thanks again Tim

gerat job really nice Panther G only one thing, you've left the small round sink marks on the spare tracks. Look out for this, most kits with indy type tracks have them. they're frustrating to remove but realy worth the effort.
It's nice to see a larger scale tank for a change! I agree with everything that was said, real good work on the paint and subtle weathering.
Thanks for sharing!
Someone else beat me to the injector pin marks on the tracks, but two other little things for future reference. One pretty panther specific one is the coil of rope on the hull side is actually cable as well, so metalic color for that.
Secondly the periscopes on the upper hull ,one in the second picture and one under the hood on the drivers side and the ones on the cupola and singleton on the turret roof could/should have dark glass centers inside the metal frame.
Nice build, keep up the good work, and keep it fun.
