I feel the need for a Jagdpanther.

A word of warning: The Tamiya German Panzerkampwagen V Panther Ausf.A (#35065) has tracks that are too short, the drive wheels will be pulled out of the proper position.

That's this one:

That's the kit I have but bought some workable tracks for it so I should be okay.

Thanks for the headsup buddy :thumb2:

Ok... where the hell have I been that I've missed this...???
Hollywood just PMed me about it.
WOW!!!
Guys you are amazing, I can't believe the way this has taken off.
You guys are awesome!!!
A few minutes ago I was a little on the fence as to whether or not I could join due to timing.... but screw it. You're enthusiasm has sucked me in like a Hoover.
I'm in.
I have a really nice Panther Ausf. G berg that I will use. I've got all sorts of goodies for it too. I've been saving it for when I had time to build her.

I think that it's been realised Mark haha.
Both admins and a Moderator have signed up haha.

Nice kit Lee... I built that for a buddy of mine last year.
It goes together really well and is good on the accuracy. It's a tiny bit soft on some of the details, but you'll enjoy this one buddy.
It's a nice kit!!!

cool that this will happen
i have a night fighter from the muncheberg division in mind (yes i had to look that up)
and that panther Coen has looks like a nice base kit for the whole idea
don't think it is that widely available tough but i'll make it happen somehow

You guys are a bad influence! I promised myself I'd only do the ISM GB's. But seeing all these great kits is making me want to join. I'm on the bones of my arse at the moment so I'll see if I can find a little 1/76 panther of some sort. I think revell will probably do one? :pistols:

Yeah its quite some time till we start with it, time to prepare yourself with reference material and inspiration. However, my Jagdpanther kit is smiling at me all the time and whispers "build meeeeee".

I hope I can pull off the Ambush camo again

Before anyone tells me whether they did or didn't mount the scope on a Jagdpanther, I'll tell you I don't care. It should look interesting and that's all that counts.

Then you should also mention which Panther kits are best to avoid, for example Tamiyas old Panther Ausf. A.

I built one too some time ago, kit's not that bad to build but it has some inaccuracies and fitting issues.
