Panther G new road wheels

Post by AlanWhite »

Yesterday i received a set of rubber tyred metal roadwheels for my Panther G from Dave at Forgebear
Very prompt service and decent price :thumbup:




I painted them with Tamiya yellow brown then gave them a wash of red brown and when dry gave them a wee splatter of the red brown wash
i think they turned out well
Cheers
Alan

Much much nicer than the raw pot metal look.

Wheels and the entire model look great Mr White, but a point of constructive critique if I may.....................

Please remove & replace the 4 digit turret number you have on there.
Thats a Heng Long/ Taigen model series number & is not only inaccurate but looks out of place & diminishes a models overall finish.

AlanWhite: I, too, have been seeking a way to put correct markings on my three-tone camouflaged Panther G. Peddinghaus offers one or so, but I would prefer first masks and second press transfers, as decals (with which I have decade upon decade of experience) will "silver" despite all our tricks and efforts so to avoid.
