You have a nice conversion. It looks like a bit of a hybrid, though, in terms of variants. The muzzle brake is a G. The single headlight is an H or J. The commander's cupola is an H or J, maybe a late G. The placement of the spare tracks looks on the sides looks an H or J. The lack of side shurzen implies a G. The rear exhaust would be a late H or early J. The early Js had all four return rollers. But, they quickly transitioned to the 3 roller setup. The sprockets are from an H or a J.
You do need an antenna to be accurate. As mentioned the H and J had it on the rear left.
Also, in the video, your muzzle brake is turned. The ports should be parallel to the ground.

Will turn the muzzle brake, but look at making a H.
Antenna it certainly requires for sure.
Side shurzen for a H is another required addition. Then I be even happier.
I do enjoy this model for sure

Cool! Got references? Waldemar Trojca has a great reference with good diagrams and rough timelines: "Sd. Kfz. 161 Pz. Kpfw.IV Ausf. G/H/J vol 2" I think you could Google it as "Trojca 20". Other good ones are Tank Power 250 and 147 (WM 147, WM 250).Will01Capri wrote:Will turn the muzzle brake, but look at making a H.

There are a couple of minor details that I have noticed about your PZ 4 G/H,
The Left rear fender should have a reflector on the lower centre section and the rear light that is on the hulls rear right hand side is an addition in the minds of Heng Longs designers,
I have searched high and low in many works of reference of the PZ4 and I cannot find that light unit.
I await the evidence that some smart a*se now produces to prove me wrong (Again)
If you do decide to fit the MK-Modellbau Aerial a tip is to smear a drop of washing up liquid on the rubber base and then twist the aerial into the mounting hole, it will go in much easier if you do.
