:haha: :haha: Yeah i know i keep saying i want a winter camo tank but everytime i get a new one i go with something else :crazy: I have just brought a Jagdpanther upper hull to fit on this chassis, if i can some how get it to work with the colour of the wheels and lower hull i might have a winter Jagd :think:

Keith,your Panther looks great.From the description you changed the control arms,was this necessary in order to use the Asiatam wheels? And the zimmerit looks great,did you order a gray Panther? Sorry for all the questions just interested in the Panther as I have a new Jagdpanther that I got Nov4th on my b-day and have yet to start my build.Sax

Hi Blake knowing i was going to put zimmerit on, the colour of the tank did not matter as most of it gets covered anyway, like you i looked for ages on the net for info on the colours but could find very little, I found a picture in a book (not a photo) of a 1945 Panther G and thats what i copied, the numbers on the turret had faded and new ones painted over the top of them but their was no info on the tank, but i liked it so i painted it :D

Here is the picture i used

Thanks Keith,I have seen that picture and being near the end I would think they would put any tank available out to fight,their are records that mention tanks being factory rebuilds so I think a gray Panther is very possible.Your looks great,and if I come up with any information with regards to the picture I will send you a link.
