MrChef, you are at it again with the teaser photos! Hmm... Was that the 85th birthday? Just guessing since you won't reveal anything.

Hahaha 85 thats a few years away... I turned 52 last Monday thank you guys.

Someone has to inject some excitement into this forum... So here's another for you intrepid investigators-


This will be my first full paint job with DIY upgrades. I'm documenting progress so I can share in a cohesive build post.

A Jagdpanther with that paint job you have your eye on will look pretty cool.
Lots of outstanding JP builds in here for reference too

Bingo!

I'm at the end of teardown phase. I'm investigating weld seams,flame cut markings and cast texturing.






The new girl looks so naked and afraid... And Damn I didn't realize how different I got the stock finish on the Panther.

I'd like to do another one of those, they are very cool.

Just looking at your road wheels, the box says they should be metal ?
Are they?
Lucky you if they painted the metal upgrades, normally they stay raw metal.
