Nice build and well painted It would of looked a bit better if you added some mesh screens to the engine deck.

I like what I'm seeing mate. Looks good. Is that straight out of the box?

Top job

Marcin, nicely done. Also, I would like to see some close up shots, and how you did the painting and road wheels.

Looking forward to more shots of the Jadgpanther.

Looks good

my favourite tank destroyer




would you recommend the kit to a newcomer to 1:35 vehicles, I have been building large scale ships (well 1:350/400) but found them a bit too fiddly and it got to the point where I was just building the thing because I wanted it off my desk!

All Tamiya AFV kits are ideal for anyone who's starting to build 1:35 kits, they are simple joy to build and finish. And while other might whine that they are overly simplified, it's possible to pull off nice results just doing OOB.

Marcin, t'anks for the close up photos, and showing your tank collection.

Where are you going to display all of the tanks you plan on building?

Also telling us what vehicles you have used while in the Polish military. Interesting to hear about your experience with the PT-91 and Leopard IIA4.

I was in earlier US tanks and APC's - M60A1; M60A3; M113; M150 TOW CAP; M106A1 4.2" Mortar carrier. I assisted in fielding all of the new tanks and vehicles in the 1980's - Abrams tank; Bradely Fighting Vehicle; MLRS, and many more.

You did a great job on the camo and weathering. The track sag looks perfect. The only things I would have done different is to add the screens to the rear deck and replace the plastic tow cables with twisted electrical wire so it sags on some spots for a more natural look. The plastic one looks too straight and stiff. Also the small wire roll on the right side looks to be brass color? If it's brass a little dark metal paint will make it look better.
