Hi all, an update on my progress on the Jagdpanther. Figure still requires a bit of work, plus a few other small details!..








Thanks for looking
Andy

Nice looking Jagdpanther. Are you gonna put any marking on her? I like how some of the wheels have the paint scraped off probably from rocks and stuff rubbing against the rim

looks great!! but what a strange green color.

I'd like the pink barrel ( or what color it is )
One thing, the exhaust pipes, why aren't they rusty??
Or is that just a part of the 'small details'?

Wow.. Looks Great!!!!
Are you gonna leave it plain??? Many "Late" Jagdpanthers and German armor in general didn't have any tactical markings.. There wasn't time to apply them..

That is a fine looking Jagdpanther Andy, and it really shows off your skills with the airbrush and shading..
I love the axe, both the finish (new) and the positioning, good use of the track rack..
It probably is the photograph, but I too wonder about the shade of green, it looks to light? The figure also looks to be painted in a very light shade of brown (?)..
It might be the lighting (flash?) that has altered the colors..Try to take the pic's outside, in natural light.

Cheers

I love the shade of green and want to know how you made it

Also.. I would think no markings, as someone else posted this was a tank rushed out of the factory, no time or resources for markings

Looks Super Andy, only thing I can see that maybe need attention is to brighten the ice pattern of the tracks with a drybrush of flat aluminum, or if they are fruils, just hit them with a super-fine sanding stick!

Great work on your Jagdpanther. I have been waiting to see how you made out with it.

I like the overall late-war green with the red-oxide primer showing in places. What I really like now is the weathering on the lower hull, rear hull, and esp the roadwheels.

Figure looks cool, and I think the pose is perfect for the vehicle.

Outstanding !!

Cheers !!
