Hi to all!
I'm glad to see many fine works,congrats!!

Because I did not find crew for my KT, I left for a while ... I did work with this nice kit from Trumpeter,with fewer parts, no flash, very easily to assembled . PE-s are from a Dragon Panther,gun and cannon guard from the same kit.It was a real pleasure the work on him...So my Jagdpanther late ,western front 1945,unknown unit...

I hope you like'it!!
























Cheers!!!

As always your build look really good. I like the way you "distressed" the side skirts and the track painting looks beautiful. Did you do the camouflage with an airbrush or by hand?

Cheers,
Jan

Hi Dani,

impressive work on your jagdpanther. I like the sideskirts and the faded look. How did you achieve the latter?

Dani,

You have a very nice Jagdpanther!

Did you "pin" or "tie-down" the tracks to force them to have the proper sag? If so, the left track rear is a little too tight.



But, as others have stated, your brush painted camo is very nice.

Excellent work. How did you manage to achieve soft-edged camouflage with a brush?

Did you perhaps attain this effect by tapping your brush ón the models surface? I've employed this technique myself, but failed to reproduce this effect as convincingly as is demonstrated by this model.

Dani very fine work buddy.

I'd really like to see how you paint the scratches. Can you give a description of your method?

The link you provide is not working by the way.

Best regards, Alexander
