Panthers often had zimmerit applied in manners different than many other panzers. Often the ridges were vertical rather than horizontal.
Sometimes there was a grid or cross hatch pattern added to the ridges
also, sometimes it was just a simple grid pattern rather than the ridges
Anyways, I made mor progress on my Panther G in the past couple of days. Yesterday I added the lower glacis plate to the die cast hull using Gator Glue and held it in place with rubber bands until the glue dried. Today I super glued on the side plated and final drive housings...
Then I built up the running gear
and glued them into place
Then I built up the remaining fiddly bits
and glued most of them in place on the hull sides
and I got the exhausts and fiddly bits glued to the rear hull plate
and I glued the main gun barrel in place after I sanded the seam smooth. So after maybe 4-5 hours work, all I need to do is add the tracks, screw the upper hull to the lower and glue the last bits on, and then it will be all ready for painting...
