It's still summer. Wait till winter comes. Remember what happened on the eastern front. Who makes that model. Is it a mark 1 like Ice Monkeys?

[Matdragon]

looks really nice mate!

Excellent, Now lets see under the hood! What features are installed? Really have never gotten a chance to see one in any detail.

Its a field of armour with graupner electrics it has sound with gun elevation but no recoil yet I will have to do that as well as fit a smoker and exhausts.

Keep up posted and let us see how this is put together. I am interested in feedback on field of armour. I was thinking of getting a shurzen set for my panzer iv from them.

Hi tankmad,
Its a nice looking kit you have there.....but can I just ask,why the sandbags and the 'Afrika Korps' symbol on the front ??

Thats the way I bought it I know there was no Jagdpanthers in Africa and it was allied tank crews that put sand bags on their tanks when I am done with it there will be no sand bags or palm trees in sight.

Hi Stevie,
Phew ! I am glad that you are going to put that all 'Right'. I think that a length of track or a spare wheel has much more protection than a bloomin sand bag......It has always puzzled me why the allies did that.....I doubt that an 88mm shell would be slowed much by a canvas bag full of sand !
