Hi Andy
the new HL panther would be a lot easier 
though it has been great fun to do and I learnt a lot (not scared to get out the saw now)
trouble is with the pantiger mod its still out of scale and proportion (not that I have another Panther to compare it with)
If you have plenty of time, go for it  (and get the new HL panther as well) 
cheers

Thanks Rob
One day I will do the side plates, yeh more plastic ;D ;D
next mod is the KT, so will be easier, so shouldn't be as much plastic so the stock pile should build up for you :o
good to see the tiger build coming along again looks great  8)

Hi Rob
Hopefully the KT wont be such a cut and glue job as the Panther so less plastic to use(but you never know) ::)
Will share the KT build here, have been building a new tank factory(garden shed) nearly finished then I will be starting the mod
cheers

Hi All
some comparison pics of my HL panther mod with a Tamiya Jagdpanther
has come up fairly close, few noticeable differences
front glacis plate and fenders
bit narrower
engine hatch and deck
rear storage bins
cheers
