Hi chaps,Thought I would just update ya'll on my HL pantiger project........most of the work has been on re-modelling the hull which is very wrong dimensionally, but 'scrubs up' well with a bit of plasticard and some cyno
........I am using an Academy 1/25thmodel panther as the reference for this model which will be a mk V......just hope the Academy panther is accurate!!!![

Thanks for the encouragement guys,I am planning to use the Mato Metal gearboxes with metal sprockets and tracks and to add a flashing
hull MG and to make this moveable.........I will add other detail to such as opening hatches and tow cables which Stern posted a while ago.......this is the first full reconstruction of a tank that I have undertaken and it is enjoyable but as you say, a lot of work

......the only concession I am making on the scale is the width of the tank, which is slightly too wide but hardly noticeable, since I have increased the length..........I'll keep ya posted on further progress..........Cheers
