As Herman says, experimental atgm.

X7 red riding hood. Allegedly used at the Wars end! I’m not using it anymore, not enough space on the roof with the IR night fighting stuff!

And I think I’ve had a change of heart with the aa roof armour.

Thanks for looking in guys!

Repositioned the spade, extinguisher, aerial base and hatch as per late photos and Weald Foundation Jagdpanther.

Have installed the tow cable holder on the side. Will be keeping a clear hull side as per late pictures/1946 stuff.

Periscopes added. Brackets for night fighting to follow.

Spent some time detailing scratch C hook holders for the rear panel. Fine chain and retaining pins added. Ran out of chain on a Sunday damn!

Adam it looks good, Will it have a matching paint scheme or raw metal look like red oxide or rusted metal like it was added simply to be functional? With some heavy weld beads?

Thanks Carl - havn’t decided. It’s not fixed yet but I will be adding weld detail.

Mick, C hooks are Tamiya then staples and fine chain for the retaining pins. ;)

I think the tow hooks look very smartImageMaybe paint the bracket and light a totally different contrasting camoflouge pattern like it was repurposed from a panther that battled defending Berlin and reattached to this beast....Image
