HL JP

Post by Yellowshaker »

Here is a recently completed Jagdpanther. I corrected the gun shield, added texture, and welds. I then installed Mato 3:1 gearboxes with ETO 480 motors. It is powered by ElMod PRO and has the blasterIV with custom sound set. A few other little details were added as well. This HL also has a custom made traverse system using micro servos for all the main gun functions.

Great looking tank destroyer. The detail in the weathering is amazing!

One thing that, if may be permitted, i would like to suggest, is to add one link to the tracks to give them a more realistic look as at the moment they look over-tensioned.

Having said that, it all depends on the use of the tank. If functionality and drive-ability are the priority, well tensioned tracks are the obvious option.

Well done!
