yes i bought it from Bram on BTN some time ago, but have done al lot off work on it lately

what still i am planned to do is, putting the confing the cable holders and all the stuff empty, it is much improved sice then, the loaders hatch get functional it was closed when i bought it etc ....

and it get a three tone scheme ...

it has to be KT transporttracks on it , a friend mark lawson explained why it could have the KT tracks late like it is now, they are to broad in general for this tank, its only weighted 55 tonin compare of the koti 68 tons

you can see them also on RC universe and BTB battle Tanks Belgium i have threads over there

i swapped this for a new KT kit with bram the thought was very well done but still is not perfect, it is on a KT hull mounted

As i have already said , great looking tank,and what a great build Bram did on it.

May be you should have been a little bit more up front about it, rather then just being caught out and then having to come clean ;)

Still a great tank though, and always nice to look at great modded build.

this on my revieuws on RC Universe and BTB there it was pronounced that Bram's build it , its not a shame there is much changed on it, i normaly don't buy anything build but this was a rare oppertunity my favourite is the King TIger , i have five of them and two porsche Koti's ... 3 panthers too and four tiger I , not evverything is finished yet but thats the spirit

was collecting a peleton of each for my 1/16 Kampfgruppe Kesnika (Kes : comes from kestens, ni : comes from ninove were i live , ka : comes from my forename karel so all together its Kampfgruppe Kesnica ) ... the Peiper emblem is just refers to the fight at the ardennes '44 of the kampgruppe )[/b][/color]

because i live not far of the ardennes were Peipers Kamfgruppe attacked the allied forces

Although i bought the Panther II it is still my build too!
