Coleman Collector's post in this thread is just so funny. I'm in the attempting withdrawal stage using halftracks etc to mitigate the withdrawal symptoms :D

Over the past week or so i have been putting some more finishing touches to the Jagdpanther
Turned the engine deck lifting hooks round so they are in correct direction, also deleted the legacy 27mhz arial stub (done this on KT , Tiger and PantherG as well)

Well done! Turning those lifting hooks around is quite a trick. Firsts removing them, I would have them so mangled they would be blobs of plastic. And those original HengLong/Taigen/Torro antennae drive me nuts. Just pull 'em out: yeah, sure.

Good Morning!
Alan, Good Job catching the lift hooks and turning them around. ;0) The Gun looks great! The rear deck cover looks good once filled in where the antenna stub was at as you have done. A detail trick I picked up from another member was to take a small hex key and make an indent in the center of those two covers. Looks like the original mounting point then. Have a Great Day!
regards,
Painless

Thx guys :thumbup:
Herr Doctor I to was hesitant about doing the lifting hooks in case i mangled them but i found gripping them with long nosed pliers and waggling them side to side they popped off
A wee sand down to remove unevenness and glued them back on using polystyrene liquid cement (Revell cement)
the 27mhz arial stub was again using long nosed pliers i just gently levered it out and it popped out no probs
