Re: Grossdeutschland Panther A
Thank you Stuart!
Today was the last little bits of work I needed to do before I get the hull all closed up... except one thing...
I got the periscopes and drivers vision block glued into place on the hull
and on the commander's cupola
And for one last bit I glued the side skirts armor plates into place
tomorrow I'll add the last bits of mud to the upper track run and inner faces of the side armor plates, then get the hull closed up.

Nice progress Carlos.
Seems to me like you Arizona guys are always going to or coming from some sort of
fun model club meeting. Must be a good population of styrene addicts in that state...

Re: Grossdeutschland Panther A
Chris & Mike, thank you.
Chris, the Phoenix area has a population of several million, so yeah a good starting point. IPMS Phoenix has well over 100 members, and a good number of them, say 50-70+, show up to any given meeting. I don’t know what the numbers are for the Tucson chapter, but being a smaller area, I imagine that there are few members to draw from. Our AMPS crew is much smaller, but draws from a wider area. I know that there is also a car modelers group in the area, but since that is outside my interest area, I have no idea of their numbers, only that they exist, and have a loose affiliation with Phoenix IPMS.

Re: Grossdeutschland Panther A
Stuart, I was able to keep my word here!
Last night in the afternoon and evening I got the hull glued together
Then today I added all of the last bits... except the commander's AA MG
Tomorrow I can start the painting and hopefully have this all wrapped up in a few more days. I'll add the AA MG after paint and decals but before final weathering.
