In this update I finish the detail cable holders on the side, I made the radio antenna box around the HL antenna so it can be used as a base but now it is in the correct place. I scratched wood grain into the HL jack block which was perfectly smooth from the factory. Then I primered the Tamiya parts and attached them. Its coming together now!

With the Primer it no longer looks like the Henglong Jagdpanther at all!!

Carve out the inner portion of the antenna and attach the screw and wire.

Scrub or brush on, then wipe or streak off. It works as a filter and wash in one.

More to come!

Great work so far. I enjoy following. I am a fan of the Jagdpanther myself. Will you do a build video in the end as well, like you once did for the Jagdtiger?

I really like the video format, and enjoy doing it but all the editing takes a lot of time. I most likely will though eventually. Thanks Soeren!

Awesome work so far.

It was on eBay last year but I sold out and I did not like how much ebay takes in fees now. I have several kinds, the jars are small but go a long way. See the jnewboy customs jagdtiger video on YouTube to see it being used. PM me and I'll get you prices and quantity. Thanks

Fantastic job, I agree 100% on Aves over miliput. Much easier to work with.
