Many thanks for the comments guys!!

panzer88 - the disc pattern was drawn onto a piece of thick graphic tracing paper.
               The outer edges were cut out, leaving the discs slightly touching each other.
               I then painted the side skirts in the tri colour camo scheme. Once dry, I placed the
               stencil over each side skirt and sprayed it dark yellow.
              
              
                If you're interested, I've blogged the build.

Manstein's revenge - that's the emblem for the Herman Goering Panzer Div.

Crockett - Cheers buddy. I honestly didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

cheers,

Jurgen.

I have an excellent article in an Armour Modelling magazine that shows how to replicate this--just the same way you did...this whole disc-scheme idea was discussed at some length about a year ago...this is one of the pics I still have from that thread that shows the tank you modelled:

The round overlays were photoshopped in to show the "discs" in the pattern...one of the ideas that was debated was that the disc scheme and the ambush scheme were really one in the same...

 Looks like the tanker far right suffered burns.  I think I'd rather be infantry...

Hi! I hope you can help me find an answer. This very tank is being discussed in a group and no one can give a correct answer it seems. The issue is the unit insignia on the front of a flag vielding centaur. Obviously this isn't the official Hermann Göring division insignia. Could someone PLEASE shed some light on this issue and maybe solve it once for all? Also, excellent build, I'm impressed!

A blast from the past...

Interesting subject the R01, and what an awesome build this is!

Help me out, what is the issue?

Regards

Johan
