The camo is rather unique. Did you find a picture of one with it or was it self inspired. At any rate it is very effective. Nice looking Panther you've built there.

Can't speak for the OP but it's a real scheme. There's a winterised one which is similar - the concept is to be hidden in tank traps like Drachenzahne. It's probably one of the places that the vaguely fantasy splinter camouflages people use for 1946 tanks stems from. But I think the tank that comes from is 3rd Panzer Division. A very nicely realised tank too! Great work.

Yip, my Zu Fuss Panther was loosely based on this scheme and a ME262 Jet. !!

Nah, that's one of the tanks the Luftwaffe painted for them. Them cats put splinter camo on everything! @)

Seriously, though, that's a great looking Panther. I especially like the mud on the skirts. Makes her look like she's been rode hard and put away wet. Really great work, Chief.
