HL Jagdpanther late winter repaint

Post by capt midnight »

Here's one I just finished up for a buddy. It's a standard HL Jagd with added metal gear boxes, drive sprocket, idler, road wheels, and treads. I just applied the winter white wash over the stock HL camo.

He had came across a picture that he liked, so I tried to get the paint pretty close Here's the example.

I really liked the way that the mufflers came out. Here's a couple of close ups of them.

Was that just a fun personal touch? It is definitely unique, I have never seen a Jagdpanther with the stamped late road wheels. They were only on a handful of the last panthers.

My buddy that I painted it for picked up the road wheels. If I remember correctly, he came across a picture and liked the look. I never really thought about it until now. I'm just the schlep that slings the paint! :haha:

Steel wheels look great, mine is due back after having them made for the Tamiya chassis.
