Congrats on your first 2012 completion Tojo72!  That's a fine Panther you've built; camo and weathering are top notch!!  The Dragon Zim looks great!  What's your next build?

Looks nice. I like the camo. You remembered the silver on the rims of the middle roadwheels. Good job, many a modeler seems to miss that.

Does the kit not come with an MG for the top, or did you just not want to put it on? Regardless, it looks very nice.

One of my favorite tanks... your Panther looks GREAT! Yes  Looks like you are on track to build 12 armors this year?

Yeah,beautiful job there! And in a month, I might get a model done in six-monthes to a year or so and it wouldn't look nearly this good. Kudos sir!

Veeeeeeery nice build here...camo, markings and restrained weathering look great!  Looks like a Lehr or Hitlerjugend Panther in Normandy...
