Panthers

I managed to get my boxed set of Plastic Soldier Company Panther tanks finished tonight. I am quite pleased with the way they have come out.



The hulls do not have the zimmerit, but I think they look good enough as is.


As I mentioned in the earlier WIP post - I have done them as a variant A, with a few variations thrown in too!


I decided to model them as two higher command tanks, and a regular platoon of 3 tanks, as can be identified by their turret numbers.


I know the panthers often had spare track and other stowage on the turrets, but this really makes adding decals difficult! So I left the turret sides clear, and put the spare track pieces on the rear hull areas.


Decals by DOM.

Now where are those allied tanks hiding?

    1. A mate has bought the new "Blood, Guts and Glory" book, so I have a feeling there may be another box of these due to arrrive at 'Bowman Towers' sometime in the not do distant future...

  4. Nice job, as always. I like the weathering. I've been lazy on some of my tanks recently, not putting the effort in to properly weather them. Tanks looks so much "heavier" when you do.
