Hi everyone:
I´ve deleted my previous post because I was unable to make the link work. I will try again in this one.
The idea is to share with you all new pics of my Jagdpanther (Italeri) that I´m building.

Looking good dude is it completely built out of the box or have you used PE parts. I really like the Camo paintjob you did. and the tracks look very convincing too.

Thanks for the help FAUST. It´s completely OOB, no PE used or any aftermarket resin parts. The tracks are from a Tamiya Panther G Late (vynil) that I found in my spare box. Next will come the weathering of the vehicle and tracks.

Great job so far. Personally, I think the ultimate camo is the ambush pattern. Looks great.

Well done. The numerals are the best I have ever seen. How did you do it?

Thank you 210cav. It was simple, the decals are the ones of the kit & I followed the traditional method, this is:
clear coat (Humbrol clear varnish)
appling decals (with Humbrol Decalfix)
when well dry clean excess of Humbrol solution.
mate coat (Vallejo Mate Varnish)

Hi all:
Here are more pics. I gave a coat of mate varnish (Vallejo Acrylics) and drybrushed details with Gunmetal (Model Master).

Pretty impressive, csch. I love the detailing, the camo is nicely blended, and the detailing is precise. The lettering/numbering (decals) are nice and clean. Looking forward to seeing it weathered and completed. Are you going to do a diorama for it?

Great camo work csch!! Everything looks so right. The drybrushing with the gunmetal is excellent and really makes the kit look like its made of metal. Good to see what can be made from an Italeri kit OOB. I know you are not finished but try to hide the track joint, as its quite noticeable. Your building is so clean and is easy to see how clean it is beacause of the shine on the earlier pictures. Nice one!!

Yes mrs selrach, I´m planning to palce it in a dio with my whitewashed Panther G (you can see it in the Gallery). Thanks for the nice comments.

Thanks Plasticbattle, I´ll fix the joint when adding dirt to the tracks.
