Hi Chris, Sorry I missed your question . I'm out of work so moneys a bit tight . So believe it or not I get my glue from poundland think you get 10 or 12 tubes for a pound . I'm not saying its the best but its stuck everything Ive done on this Panther build . Including brass , styrene , HL plastic , wood , the wire mesh grilles .

Hi Ive decided to coat this in the MAN style zimmerit . Its not perfect but resembles the pictures I have . I have coated the lower half to as I altered the tub for this reason. Ive realised it needs some more lines as per the picture but I supose they were different ? As I did it from a different pict but its simular ? The zimmerit looks better than it does in the pictures.

Hi All . Ive stripped all the zimmerit of as I felt it didnt look correct . Ive started to re do it now . The same pattern in the MAN style but small squares and longer dashes . Will post some picts once this and the skirts are done
Hi all Ive been experimenting with the skirts today . Had a dummy run and now have got it all worked out however school hols start tom so less tank time . Im making the detachable mounts out of brass and the skirt sections out of styrene . The mounting points on the tank are a bit doggy Ive cut a piece of 'u' shapped styrene and glued it to the underside . But it only glues to two points on the tank . This is why the skirts are meade from styrene less wait pushing down . Will post picts once Im happy ., promise
