I've just finished Tamiya's Jagdpanther and had contemplated doing a "how to" on a three color ambush scheme. Then I began to doubt if that would be a Jagdpanther option. I haven't found any pix's in my stuff of an ambush pattern on a Jagdpanther. What do ya'll think? Possible, not possible?

why not go for it , as who is to it's say wrong towards the end of the war many cammo patterns exsisted and it was up to the crews to apply it in the field

Hi PLMP110:
It is a perfect option. Here is the pic that you´re looking for. This is my Italeri´s Jagdpanther with ambush scheme. I haven´t finished it, still remains the final weathering and some details. Go ahead.

Steve Zaloga's old D-Day to Berlin from Squadron books has an illustration of a Jagdpanther in ambush scheme, so nbow you have a source. Go for it. If it's good enough for Steve Zaloga, it's good enough for the rest of us.
