Man Tojo, it is looking great. I have always liked the Panzer series of armor. Looking at the photos it looks like it went together with no troubles. Are you going to follow the box art with your paint or do you have something else in mind?

You have my full attention, and I'll be watching until you have that beauty finished. Enjoy the build Tojo.

Nice work so far. I like the look of the zimm. I was not to sure about doing pre zimmed kits, but after doing one, i am becoming a convert.

Does it include Schurzen.

I like the looks of this tank. I hope you will keep the updates coming.           gk

The Jagdpanzer is looking great.  The molded zimmeritt looks good.  Dragon is really making some cool kits with nice features.  You're doing a great job on yours.

Loving the build so far. Are you going to add the shurzen to it?

The kit is looking good, one of these days  will have to give a dragon kit a try. Can't wait to see this finished.

Robert

Thanks guys

Bish and Erik,yes it comes with plastic shurzen which I plan on using.

Today I got the roadwheel forest done v today as well as the shurzen panels.I will try a Quick Wheel Mask to paint the 36 roadwheels

You just got to love road wheels. Kind of curious how the Quick Wheel Mask will work, hopefully it will make painting faster.

Tojo nice subject and looks like things are going nicely.

Lookin' good Tojo! Most annoying thing about Panzer IVs and varients is all those friggin' road wheels, hope the masks work out there. 

Tojo,

Looking forward to seeing some paint on this jagdpanzer! I've been thinking of getting the quick wheel masks, let me know your thoughts. And do you feel they can be used more than once?

I got the basic camo coat down,wheels are painted.I also cut the one piece shurzen into seperate pieces for more realism,next up detail painting,filters and weathering.

Ohhhhh, the camo looks nice Tojo! 

Thta looks nice, and good ida to cut the Schurzen as well, looks much better in seperate pieces.

Coming along nicely Anthony. Also echo the comments on the schurzen

The paint job is looking good.

Robert

Very good work on ths one.  I like the zimmerit, looks much better than the resin Atak product I had used on this vehicle.

I woulda left the skirtzen off...just my preference---looks much more interesting to me if you can see the tracks and running gear...

 

 

I know what your saying,but I built one version with no skirts,even used Fruils.On this one I wanted the armadillo look.

Thanks everyone for your looks and comments.I got all assembly done,decals,pinwash,roadwheels weathered and attached.Next up the amagic Tracks,and some chipping and streaking on those big panels.I broke off the gunners periscope,but am in the process of rigging something up.

I hope you don't hate me if I say that I think you should have lightened your Dark Yellow. It looks awfully dark in tone--but it may be the lighting.

It looks good as a model build though. Those skirts were rare on the late variant, but is IS true that most people build them without them, so this will be a nice change.

got this one done a couple of days ago.It was a good straightforward build.I managed to get the gunners periscope back on.I chipped up the shurzen and used some AK Streaking wash,and dusted the tracks,roadwheels,and no lower hull and shurzen with some Mig Pigments.

Karl I probably should have stuck with my Tamiya mix on the Dunklegelb that you gave me awhile ago,as I think the Vallejo got too dark after weathering,or maybe just lighten the Vallejo.

Thanks for checking in.

Good looking build, I really like how the camou came out.

The darkness of the dunkelgelb seems to be within reason compared to the chips Tomas Chory has researched.  If lighting it because of scale effect, I would do the brown as well.

regards,

Jack

Tojo,

I think it looks fantastic! The chipping and weathering are very well done! As for the german dark yellow, I agree with Jack, it's within reason. Great job!

She looks good to me Tojo. The chips and dings look way better than anything I've been able to do. 

The photos look like you took them on an overcast day, could that make her look darker than you painted her? 

Excellent work,love the skirts.

The beat-up skirts look great, and so does the exhaust.  How'd you paint the exhaust?  It looks spotchy and irregular.  It looks perfectly right.

Thanks everyone.Muffler was achieved by texturing with Mr Surfacer 500,painting with MM Metelizer Gunmetal.,AK Rust Wash,and a mix of Mig Pigments,smoke and rust.

Chipping was achieved by dry brushing MM Metelizer Gunmetal.
