1:16 Taigen Panther

Having been busy with my job, children and the holidays, I've tried to take a little time to get back into my shop and finish up some unfinished builds.

I purchased this panther from Tom a while back and decided to make the time to finish it up. It is still missing a few detail bits for the hull and drive sprockets, but it's about 90% complete. Needed parts are on the way.

Too little time I'm afraid to do a complete build thread so I figured to post it up near completed. Image

When the weather allows I will get it outside for a run and some video.

It has an IBU2U FO board, Maxmekker's (Stian) speaker system enclosure, Tarr smoker system, recoil and flash. 360 degree turret and all the metal goodies. It's sort of an interesting Panther ( I think) as it has late Panther steel road wheels a missing left rear tool box...

Hope you like this welcome break from Sir Spamalot :crazy:
