Lots of dots fellas. Thanks. :D
. Started the chipping today. Some panel lines. Several more evenings of painting and weathering. Fun stuff. Installing magnets on the hull for quick tear down. A lot of wiring left.......

Such a beauty! I love the weld lines. They have a nice "late war" look.

Where did the Jagdpanther go? One minute it was there on the counter and then it vanished! ;o)

Hi Painless,
I’m having to pull out all tactical measures to exercise concealment from the tyrannical cats we have.

Thank you. I’m building this tank as though it survived the duration of the war and the updates along the way. Been a fun one. I have a ways to go, but am enjoying the journey and research.

Why not let this cat play with the other ones? I know it's a Jagdpanther, but a "Hunting Panther" is close enough..

Man, that looks great. The fine weathering and the awesome unique dot camo makes that a TOTM candidate for sure!

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I make my living as an artist. I see a lot of people struggling with their airbrushes at times. If ya ever need some assistance, feel free to chime in .

It's so well disguised, only the fretboard and bridge give it away. :thumbup:
