discussion Panther Ausf F Nachtjäger

[Guest]

This is my other build (that's 4 including the SU-152 that's sulking in a box somewhere!)

It's the 1994 Dragon Panther Ausf F. This was a very early kit & shows how Dragon have improved with time. Nothing particularly wrong with it, just lacking some details & the schmalturm turret is too wide.

I've made the searchlight out of a resistor & brass strip & bought the ET models commanders night vision device.

I'm planning an adaptation of the 'ambush' camo scheme to suit a night-fighting vehicle.

As you can see, currently it's wearing a pale blue basecoat.

The appliqué armour is 1mm plasticard.

Thanks for looking

Thank you Ian & Polux!

Actually I forgot to put pics of the ET Models night-vision equipment. It's a smart resin & pe set that also includes a replacement rear stowage box. I'm only using the NVG part
