Very nice looking Panther, I'm liking the camouflage, the Panther is a great looking tank, very good job there sir :)

Really nice result Gillaspy, the end product really shows the amount of work that's gone into it. It's not an easy camouflage scheme to attempt, but you've pulled it off. Well done!

Thanks everyone, the bat is on the mantlet and I put one on the upper glacis plate as well, don't think it had two but hey why not! I do think the camouflage scheme was intended just to drive the enemy crazy, it certainly has for me, so Herman it's working!! Still got a bit to do but it's definitely getting there, get some fading and some more washes on I think.

Hey all, been a very long time on this one, finished it off a while ago and thought I would share. Very much getting back into the hobby, lots happened, a lovely messy divorce getting in the way however its freed up my mind and my time to do things like this!

Lots of pics here, got the chipping done and then increased the streaking too, grime and rainmarks. Added some oil spills and also some petrol spillage, mixed that with some pigments however it didn't quite turn out like I wanted!

After the streaking I used some of the Vallejo thick mud and splash mud.
