This is a Panther G by Dragon. I have painted it to represent a tank that has been repaired with salvaged parts and rushed back into action. PE has been added as well as other details. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.

Love the rust effects on the mufflers, tracks, etc. What did you use for it? Also, like the way the various paint schemes work, from the non-camo'd turret, primered hatches and copula against the original camo.

Cool!

This is really cool, I like the late war feel its got to it. Especially the weathering on it. A diorama with this would be awesome.

Love it! Good selection of paint to represent a late G. Might think of the same for my 1/16 too!

Nice work!

Thanks for kind words! I use pastel powder for most of my weathering either by itself or suspended in mineral spirits(rust stains and streaks). Mud and and caked dirt is pastel powder mixed with future. The pealing muffelers were done by applying baremetal foil painting over and then peeling it back. Then you weather it with rust colors and powder.
