thanks for the drawing pete ... but there just a copy of a set of colour diagrams from the trumpeter kit .. and there useless #as if you measure them there not to any scale .. there so many dimentions that are wrong it would be like pinning the tail on the donkey with a blindfold

Hi mcevoyi where did you get the photo of the Panther II it throws the History books out the window ,according to the so called history there was only one Panther II made and this is at the Patton museum it has a G type turret.Have Been looking at these and the Jagdpanther II thinking of future projects one hull two tops but it would have type f turret same as your photo.

regards pete

i have the same pic in one of my panzerwrecks books and it shows a destroyed panther A in a collection area somewhere in France, sorry but the pic is a fake' although a very good fake at that.

one thing that gives it away is the other vehicles are all busted up but the panther II/f is in pristine condition, my scanners on the fritz so i cant post the original.

cheers oz.

Hi if you have micro-soft Publisher its posible to scale drawings up or down using the scale ruler on the screen all you need to know is what size it is when its 1/16scale make the wheels the right size and everything else sorts it self.then you can change the drawing to which ever format is best for you .

thanks pete .. the problem with the above drawings is there not even in scale with its self .. there just for colour layout ideas

i have a mate here in weston s mare thats a drafts person for airbus and he often scales things for me ,, if i can get a good set of clear
drawings ..... but seems impossible

i wish i could show you the original pic but i have no scanner, what i could do is post it on a couple of other forums i belong to and see if anyone can post the real pic if thats OK with you ?, if they can I'll post it or post the links to the forums so you can read any feedback.

cheers oz.

hey oz, could you just take a picture of the page with the pciture ? dont need to see in detail the text, so taking a pic of it should do,

cheers,

Matt

P.S. It could be a Panther F there were 2 of them made

thanks again.. its the other side of the pic you posted above .... as you can pic between two versions of the trumpeter kit ...

still no use as no in any scale ..or with its self ...

pete thanks for all your help ... its great !
