Veery nice build.
Extremely excelent brass and solder work.
Those new wheels look very bling,do they have kind of bearings in them?

Keith looking at that style of cammo I think that it's just the vertical surfaces that are in cammo. The horizontal surfaces were left in whatever the base coat colour was. Looking at the picture you posted it seems the base colour is the yellow. I'm going to go for go for a green base coat on the paper Panzer with yellow and red brown splinter pattern on the vertical surfaces. Once I get the late pattern drive and idler wheels. However if I get a 2nd panzer IV upper hull to allow me to interchange with I will have no option but to do the the ambush scheme again, but with a bit of a twist I've seen in Tony Greenlands modeling book. Looking forward to seeing yours in paint.

Cheers Steve, each wheel has 2 bearings in it, i will post some detailed pics of the wheels tomorrow to show this

Hi Alan, these are the camo pics im working off, it shows the camo from all angles







Keith

Here are the bearing pics as promised, as you can see there are two bearings in each wheel, the shaft goes through the middle in to the suspension arm, and is then held in place by a grub screw, i actually had a problem with a few of the shafts this time, and i had to sand them down a bit to get them to fit through the bearings, but the set i fitted on my Panther was perfect




Keith

Ok, after a couple of days masking, getting mad, masking, getting mad, i finally got the Jagd painted i still got a lot to do weathering and all that, but what do you think
