Meng 1/35 Panther Ausf A early

Post by Brandons_Iron »

Not much to show off on this one yet. I have big plans for this. I will be giving it a full Zimmerett treatment along with with a diorama placement of it sitting on a collapsed bridge. I found a pic online of this very tank having fallen through, so off I go. Currently I have the suspension loose so I can adjust once I get the dio started. I'm working on getting enough of the upper hull and turret complete so I can add the zimmerett, that should be an experience. I'll paint it full camo with winter applied over the top. Still looking for the right mix of soldiers and tank crew to fill the scheme. And I am likely to find a set of workable tracks as I don't think I can manage to use the individual kit parts and fit them on giving the odd way they will fit sitting half on a bridge. We'll see.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

Road wheels are looking good!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Nice! I’ve been looking a decent Panther Ausf. A. Road wheels looks great!

Off to a great start
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
