Thanks Mr Schpzr, trying to replicate a real tank years after it was destroyed is a nervous time.
Hopefully its a fair representation of what it looked like the moments before fate took its course.

Cheers,

Good Afternoon, Herman!
It all came together beautifully! A testament to lost Armor.The super realism achieved by you with the zimmerit and battle ready yet weary detailing makes this Panther stand out and deservedly so. Looking forward to crew if any are showing up. The tank stands alone on it's own, incredibly well.
regards,

Your credit is greatly appreciated Sir.
Another Panther it may be, but to have spent time in real life with the steel relic was very special.
Just hope I did the right thing by the men and machine to bring it to life in 16th scale..............

Thanks Mr Wolf, I did wonder how I was going to get it right as I went along the path...........crew is on the cards, but a way off.
111 has a Commander in place, but the full compliment of high quality crew is reliant on someone that can paint them :haha:

The Celles tank is quite sad, but at least it’s there I suppose!

My version of 111 is as complete as I think it needs to be.
Perhaps a helmet hung and a bucket & extra jerry cans other than those on the rear, all of which are nil stock here in Aus. :/

I will try to get some better pictures outside asap.

Thanks for looking in, all the advice & praise along the way.
