Very nice start.

[Guest]

Bit more done on the Tamiya Panther, I added more photo etch, also joined the two hull halves together and added a few Dragon Panther spares to the kit.


The turret was started and isn't far off finished, really enjoyed this Kitty, it's goes together with ease, and is a complete joy to build


Www

[Guest]

Nice start!

[monica]

looking good Tommy,it dose have nice detail,almost makes me feel like starting one of mind lol,


as you said that you joined upper and lower hull,s,wont it be hard to put the tracks on ? or not glued let, 9_9

[Guest]

That's coming along nicely Tommy, the pe really adds to the detail.


I feel the need for a Panther now!

[Guest]

Thanks Kajari, nice to have you along 


Hi Monica glad you like it  not sure about the tracks just yet, not decided on the kit tracks, or individual links


Hi Patrick, glad you like it, going to get a start on the other Panther shortly

[Guest]

Got a start on the Dragon Panther G, and managed to get a good bit done on it, I didn't encounter any problems with  it so far, other than the gun mantlet.


I'm going to be adding some photo etch to it later, and hopefully get a load more completed on it.

very nice work on both,Tommy,looking good,as you do have one with PE,and the other without,


you kind of real need to add the grill cover,


and this got me thinking ,if you could use fly mesh as a grill cover, ? as it is still very fine mess, :/

Not a wing in sight, yet I am strangely attracted...............

[Guest]

Hi Monica thanks for that, I'm going to to adding more photo etch to the Dragon Panther, especially the grills


I suppose you could add the fly mesh to use for the grills, but I think it would have to be in scale, or otherwise it would show the scale difference, and your eyes would be drawn to it.


Hi Colin glad you like it, and it's nice to have you along buddy

[colin m]

Glad to be here. I will build a tank one day, honest.

[Guest]

Nice looking pair of panthers there Tommy, which one do you rate as the better kit? Some nice little detail touches as well.

[Pikeman]

Both looking great Tommy
