Re: HL Panther rework
Mg sorted, its the devil in the detail . Sometimes its ok but you always know it can be better.
Re: HL Panther rework
Great and definitely worth the effort.
Re: HL Panther rework
Hi Soeren Casting is looking like a learning curve is required, 1st go was with blue stuff and epoxy resin. Mixed results tried the mg and tow shackles. Added detail to the cupola.
Re: HL Panther rework
Cupola done ,paint ok on hatch stop. Fixed hinge cover as its low on HL.
Re: HL Panther rework
Very nice modeling!
Re: HL Panther rework
Electrics problem, slipring has failed. Problem is unless slipring is dead centre the cables will twist and some will fail. Will look for a slipring that has a shallow profile, rewired with computer ribbon for now. Upgraded the barrel elevation from servo lever to a servo gear system.
Re: HL Panther rework
A few more little fixes and a repair. Hope i can match the yellow , or just add some grime as its a void beside the tracks.
Re: HL Panther rework
Fitted 2 towing shackles i cast from the Trumpeter kit. Next try and get the paint to match.

Re: HL Panther rework
Clever idea using JB weld to make shackles !
Your going great guns matching all the details to the background paint.
I have another Panther project on the list so this is very handy info
