Hello,


Here's my newest kitty - Panther Ausf.D.


Dragon - 1/35 - Premium Edition.


Few words about the kit. It was a bit of a disappointment for me to be honest. Not the quality of the moulds, premium addons, but the fit itself. Traditionaly, Dragon's instructions were not good, missing parts, etc. Usually I really enjoyed Dragon kits, but this one was a bit different. Anyways, it was fun to paint it and weather. Decided to go for a non-muded vehicle, just some dust. I hope you like it.

Really great Bart! Its good to see a German AFV done with a subtle touch - I always think that's how they would have looked.

Very good although the kit was not all you expect. You have taken your skills to produce a very authentic representation. I like the front armour damage to the armour plates and subtle weathering, it also gives the cleaner look and not the full on dirty battle weather beaten look.........


Now you can stick it in a dio :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Yeah! We've only just stopped Ron doing the same thing. Interesting question though, how did you get rid of the background from your original photograph?
