Hi Guys, sorry for the delay in reposting here.
The tank is now very nearly finished with just the weathering to do.

I took it out for a play on Saturday and have just uploaded a video to YouTube.

Hi all, have had a lot of distractions over the winter and it was far too cold in the garage.
Anyway, I've started on the Panther again to complete some of the outstanding tasks and the first of these was to fit and paint the 20t jack & brackets that i collected from Steve Winstone at Tankmod last October.
I did have a modified white metal jack which i believe was a 15t version that came with the tank and i was generally quite happy with it until i saw the ones that Steve produces.

Anyway, I fitted and painted the new brackets over the Easter weekend and have been painting the jack for the last few days.

I am pleased with the results although i think it took about 8 hours to paint it in total.
