Treads on, camouflage added and details painted.  Now the last thing to do is add some decals and weathering.

Looking good.
During my sort out I've found a diecast (1/35th?) jeep.
It's yours if you want it.

That would be really nice and much appreciated,  thank you! I won't be in work tomorrow,  could I collect it from you after the half term?

And finished! This was the most frustrating kit I've built in years,  but it was still a fun project.  I've learned a few things I can carry forward to build my Tiger tank in the process,  so it's had its merits to finish this Panther.

Thank you very much! I'm going for 1945 last stands with the colours, old and beat to Hell with scuffs and dents.

Well next up is the Tiger 1 from "Fury" and the 76mm SS anti-tank gun from the same movie. I just bought the colours for them today!

It's taken me until the early hours,  but I finally got Tiger 131 glued together. I had a look at some pictures of the tank (both on screen and in the museum) and noticed bullet holes in the rear exhaust guards.

The Tiger has had its coats of paints, now it needs decals, details and weathering to finish!
