    1/87 Heiser resin Panther D

    First steps in my attempt at Heisers' resin Panther D w/upgrades. It seems resin kits were all that was left in the stash. I'll add some stuff from the bits box (dark yellow plastic).

        Will likely do 'A' upgrades. Never understood D, A, G designation progression. Why D first & where are B, C, & E? I think schmalturm is F?

          Same, and they did similar weird stuff with the Tiger: the first one was Ausführung H1, later renamed to E, and the second — but a 100% different design — was Ausf. B?

          Either that or Panther II, but I can never keep those two straight.

            Some progress. Adding 'A' upgrades. Don't like supplied (white) spare tracks, will look for plastic ones like (rust colored) example.

                Nice. Are you going to put it on your diorama?
