Default Panzer IV, 1951

Hi guys, I think I have finally finished this build. I wrote my thoughts here, if somebody has interest on it.

Some pics as a teaser, but more on the link above:









Thanks for looking!

Lovely work Rad as ever,
I do like a PZ4 with a winter finish and your skilled painting and weathering are always pleasing to the eye.

I drove it to the Stolzdorf outskirts in a patrol mision, and I managed to knock out an scout T34!

Hi, Very impressive Tamiya Pz4, looks way better now! Also, great figures by your friend too. Read your tank build write up and I am done with Tamiya RC Tank Kits, for now. LOL. John

Anubizz I have seen now you follow me on youtube! Thanks, but 99,99% of what I do is in my website. Feel free to visit it anytime!
Tankster Thanks mate!
Pcomm1.v2 Well, in fact it is the same paint as in the past. I did not repaint it, I just keep adding small things like the lights, new sounds and so on. Pictures are better, though.

But yeah, I believe I am done with RC tanks. Once I finish the Hooben T54 I am building (that thing makes me miss Tamiya, LOL) I willl be pretty much done with them. But also because I want to focus in buildings and diorama. No point in having too many tanks and soldiers if you dont have a decent scale city

Nope, 1951. If you read my entry, is explained there.

The German Panzer 4 was in service in the Middle East until 1967.

So this is a tank in Spanish use? Why the cross still visible in 1951?

Hi mate, I think you did not really understand what I wrote...
But anyway, Ill explain: Everything I do, everything I build, is on my own style. Uniforms, vehicles, camouflage... the original does not really matter to me... I paint and build how I like it. In that website entry it even says this Panzer is a newer version, hence it has extra parts and strange camo.

All my diorama and toys run in alternative dystopian past, in 1951 and the war is still active, so that is why my battlefield has also 6 legged walking robots and many things like that.

Sorry for the rivet counters, but that is how it is. Whatever you see among my toys is historically correct, at least according to my invented and dystopian past.

OK thank you for that, I have seen many WWII service vehicles in 'other' service after the war, so I just had to ask, as a P4 with German markings still in service in 1951 would be new to me

You are welcome

I love to have freedom when creating my stuff.
I painted the plate for the entrance of my village, it just needs a concrete base. And I must also say we are in growing numbers, we are at least 6 rc tankers in a radio of 25 kilometers

I don't follow tanks much unless I have to come in here to handle a problem, but I will say this, you guys have great talent.
