Rtvmodeler -
Sweet looking Panther G! Hoping mine comes somewhere near the great job you've done. This one would work perfectly in my diorama. Hope you've got plans for one of your own. It is screaming out for action.

Rodolfo,
Awesome Panther. I really like your camo. The colors blend together very nicely. The detail is superb!

Great Panther and fantastic completion time!
My one suggestion would be that the periscopes in the cupola, loader on the turret roof, and the radio operator could use some glossy black/blue paint for the glass portions in the centers.
Other than that, I think it looks great

Hello friends:
Thanks a lot for your kind comments!.
Yes, maybe I will add on a Diorama, but I need to buy figures and another things.
I used my airbrush (double action) with the minimum pression of air
No, this version of Peiper Group not was added the zimmerit
You are right, I repainted with gloss-Midnight blue of Humbrol, thanks for the observation
Regards,
Rodolfo

It should be Kampfgruppe Peiper.
Edit: Nice model. Did you make the base by hand?

Not to copy everybody else's comments, but this is one good looking panther. But not just the model , you did a very good job with the pictures aswel. If I could give you one tip, try to add some 'detail' pictures aswel. Your overall shots are very good, focused right through, but it is nice if you add some close up detail shots. But only if your camera will take those offcourse.

Very nice indeed...Camo came out great..I agree with the dio idea..or at least a figure on the base, a great way to show scale!
