Dan & Andys 1/35 ICM Early Bergepanther. Don't Pretend You Thought I'd Ever Actually Finish It !​

Evening Ladels & Jellyspoons. I hope everyone is well & belated best wishes for 2023. Anyway, this has been nearly a year in the making. It hasn't taken a year, I've just not had the time to do it.

Just to recap, I got this from @The Smythe Meister in April last year. He'd painted the wheels & glued the suspension arms on but lost interest. I love me a Bergepanther so picked up the challenge

Enough talking, pics....

I'm hoping to have more time & inclination to get back at it from now on, hopefully I'll finish some more this year.

All the best,

Dan

Nice finish Dan, she looks perfectly battered and abused...

Thank you all for your kind replies. I've already pulled the next victim out of the stash in the barn. Nice to be back and I hope to be a bit more active again in the coming months.

Andy. Thanks again, I think I'm lined up for a career building recovery vehicles. I'm warming up for a full interior Bergepanther at some point. I'm still struggling with figures though, they just don't get rusty however long they've been out in the rain.

If you start yours again Dan I'll promise to resurrect my second 'Shelf Queen' Bergepanther - that is not pretty as it stands I promise!

Go for it, there's not enough Bergepanthers in the world.

Very nice. In aircraft world we talk about 'weathering' when things get a bit dirty. I'm not sure what the armour equivalent is, but this has got it in bucket loads, and I like it lots.
