I build the Tamiya Panzer IV with the Kraut Kit update set: It was a pleasure to build so far:

I´ll rebuild the missing skirt, I´m not happy with it.
I´ll got a Verinden dio base and new figures from Alpine and the Body:

Looking good Tobias, thanks for sharing. Makes me think of getting the 1/35 conversion. Cheers, Tat

Does Kraut Kit make a 1/35 scale version of the conversion?
I would like to order a 1:35 version.

Why the blue lenses? If those are supposed to be IR filters to stop visible light being transmitted, they should be black. There is no military purpose to having blue filters on searchlights, although they are useful for photographing under tungsten lights using daylight film.

I have a recollection that a museum in Germany put blue lenses on a Panther but it has no basis in fact.

I saw the originale parts in this Museum and they were in blue, so I painted them blue

Tried to google the company with poor result.

Is there a 35th scale kit or blueprints to do a conversion?
