Soeren she is a beauty thanks to your excellent skills! I admire your determination and hard work and it's evident in the results
Tanks alot....
Re: Panther G late. Taigen +Details
I guess never finishing is part of the enjoyment. Had this sitting on the shelves for 2-3 months now. And returned back to it. Added the spare track links pins and chains and some of the tools now. Bug will add pictures here in the correct order. Working on the servo recoil is planned as well. It always gave me a bit of a disappointment when the project was finished. Gladly, you can never really finish a tank.

Anyways, turret weathering as an initial start for th ehull weathering. Some tweaking is still needed her though.
Re: Panther G late. Taigen +Details
Gotta get going on that one again. Wanna try to change the elevation recoil unit for a servo setup. During that surgery I will add the beautifull Schumo mantlet. Not cheap, but will get rid of fish bulbs
Re: Panther G late. Taigen +Details
Although this mantlet looks great. You cant use it without consideerable modifications. So I skipped it. But I carried on with some details. Added some Tools. The tools are straight Taigen out of the box pieces. The C-Hooks are by Schumo Parts. Cheap and in regards details the best I have ever seen. Then I added a Aber Machine gun and modified the machine gun ball. I ordered the Resin from MK. Problem? it is not round but oval, that is the ball but also the armour cover. So I skipped adding that, but cut the inside apart to mount the ball and have the stepped shell trap and a ball with optics.

Great work.
The tracks holders are schumo parts?

Re: Panther G late. Taigen +Details
Thank you guys . These are actually the ABERs from the basic Panther kit. On the Jagdpanther I have the Schumo parts. The Abers fit the track links much better and the bolts are straight forward. For the price I wouldnt recommend the Schumo hangers you get more for your money to get the Aber kit.
Re: Panther G late. Taigen +Details
Aber basic kit? I’ll have a look. Wasn’t sure what was included.
