Steve/Allen,
Interesting stuff chaps....I know diddly-squit about panthers so good to know who to annoy speak to when I come to build one of mine properly :nerd:

With the start date fast approaching (9 days!) I’ve been putting in as much time at the bench to get my Tiggy to paint stage.
Spent a few hours assembling some AFV club workable tracks. Some minor clean up required but assembling was really straightforward. Gradually working my way through the final additions to model Tiger 332....even doing some of the damage.




Can he get to paint stage in the next 9 day.....dun dun durrrrr:surprised::smiling5:

Neat Tiger Si, good luck!

During the GB your mojo may suffer so here are some motivational posters to keep you going

The posters are great Stevie and they will probably keep us going the whole time......

If my mojovation gets any higher, I'll probably explode and spill my beer everywhere!!! And hey, no need to thank me Bro, if I can help somebody out, I'm always glad to!!!

Hope I can improve on the Marder :thinking:

Bob, your Marder was a really nicely detailed build. Camo and finish were both great, so the Hummel will be a walk in the park for ya!!! Please take care of yourself and do what the Matron says, OK???

Prost
Allen

 

[BattleshipBob]

Thanks Allen for the comments, appreciated!!

 

[Allen Dewire]

No probs Bob, just keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down and beat this illness. You don't need this bull so close to retirement...………...

 

[BattleshipBob]

Sound advice, yep too true, 3 months 9 days to going down the escape tunnell

Hi Steve, if I did build a "Toon" for yours & Si GB which I won't, I don't mind my threads being silly that's why I didn't enter Ian's Lighting GB.
But the main reason is if I built one with no extras it would be the shortest GB in history, I no a Sherman isn't a animal, but I've put one together with everything at the ready parts, decals in 22 minutes.
Pete.
I know I'm sad but I'm good at it.

 

[Steve Jones]

If you would like to make a guest apperance with a toon you havnt done yet which is animal related we would love to have it in the final album. Ever thought of a dio with a pack of toon animals in it??

 

[Guest]

Go on Pete, think that would be great. Nice idea Steve .

 

[Ian M]

Well lets see; A tiger, a Panter we know you can do those, add a Rhino into the mix, and a wasp and you will soon have a whole zoo!

 

[Guest]

Hi Steve there aren't any I haven't built, I'm making my own now. I've done 29 of them.
I could do a Panther dinosaur tank kit bash if that's not break-in the rules, I have one in mind.
Up to you & Si .
Pete.

 

[Steve Jones]

Go for it. I'm sure Si would agree

 

[Si Benson]

Go for it. I'm sure Si would agree

The man from Del monte, he says yes

 

[Guest]
