Looking good Iain :thumbup: I see you have back-dated the Jagdpanther (crew compartment heater taken off, different grills, exhausts etc)

Cheers Ian

more kv-5 pics

Post by mcevoyi »

hi all just a quick few pics of the kv-5

this is turning out to be a much bigger job than i expected .. the gun mantle two two attempts ... ... the gun barrel was made from a snooker que ...

the hull still has some way to go .... did some weld seams .... but you cannot see them in this set of pics ... but i hope when the paint hits the plastic and some weathering you should see them quite well

enjoy
