Hey all,

This is Dragon's 6370 kit. I'm pretty happy with the results. Unfortunately I've forgotten to put the metal antenna on while taking the pictures

Thank you

Very nice build. You've done a great job on the paintjob and the weathering is perfect. Well done.
Best regards
Jacob

Fantastic work Muzaffer. I like the attention paid to the leaves, mud and bloody rag on the mud guards. They really look like they've been trampled on by the crew moving around the vehicle.

Quick question, where'd you get the decal for the fire-extinguisher?

Looking forward to your next build.

Thank you Christopher. I'm planning to build some jets next but I'm not sure. Building and painting armour is such an addiction

Here is the link for the fire-extinguisher decals.

The leaves and debris is a nice touch and so is the mud/sand on the road wheels... nicely done and just the right amount.

I really can't find anything I don't like! Nice work!

Excellent job! I really like the worn edges and the slight sheen to the paintwork. Tracks and road wheels very realistic. Overall a beautiful model.

A well detailed and painted Panther. Inspires me to detail one I am currently working on. Thanks for the inspiration.

Absolutely fantastic! The paint and weathering are something I can only hope, in the far future, with LOTS of practice, to achieve. I have a Panther G in my collection, and I must say that I'll be looking back at your pictures, and will use them as a guide for mine. A really, really wonderful model!

Very nicely done Muzaffer.Your build deserves a diorama!I am presently working on an IR ready late G from 6thPzDiv,same time frame as yours(spring 45).I see yours is a 25thPzDiv vehicle.I'll be happy if mine finishes looking 1/2 as good as yours! Cheers...Murray McLennan

Hey Curt, thank you so much for your kind words. I hope you'll have great time when building your kits.

Hi Murray,

Yes this is 25thPz.Dv. Maybe I'll put this on a diorama later. Have fun when building yours and I'm sure it will look better then mine. Cheers.

Nice work on this Panther. Got to love the little details that have already been mentioned but my favorite has to be the replaced commander's cupola hatch.

Thank you Bill.

The replaced commander's cupola hatch is something that I thought would be interesting to see on the kit, I don't know if it was replaced like this on the war though

No reason to think not. Late war vehicles got factory schemes so entirely plausible to see a replacement hatch like this that didn't match if the crew hadn't had a chance to paint it to match the rest of the vehicle.
