VERY nice Herman
Have you seen the RC tanks Australia utube clip for the alternating flak recoil
It would compliment your first class tank.

Woops, sorry mate, but this ones Mr Frankies baby...............not mine I wish..............

I just ran out to my Panther & got a 1/16th officer figure to put next to it, and that mock-up in the B&W pic seems much bigger than my little experiment, plus Ive stood on/next to, and inside several real Panthers all round the place & that pic just seems like ole-mate is a bit out of scale even if he is real

Looks like they pick the smallest guy in the factory to stand beside it. Propaganda. Make the tank seem larger than it is?

[frankie]

Scale issues? Lol

[frankie]

..the guy in the publicity shot looks shorter than these guys..unless, without the weight of a "real" turret the hull's riding high....

[jackalope]

Wow another stunning model by Mr.Frank! Where do you find the time to build all these fantastic beasts?

[PainlessWolf]

Good morning,
It is a beauty, Frank. I'm chuckling at the scale issues mentioned and the photos. I notice that the 'prototype' uses an early Panther hull. Would that have anything to do with the deck height vs the worker?
regards,
Painless

Have to say that out of everything you have built, this goes to the top of the list in my book. Incredibly well done and it all works. Top job Frank, I love it!
