Ah Hell, since this kicks off next month officially, sign me up... I'm in with this kit that I've had in my stash since it was a new release back in the early 90's... so roughly 30 years...  Not to mention that I haven't built a Panther tank since the mid 80's and the ones that I have built are long gone. So this is a big gap in my collection for my Wehrmacht Heer. |

I’ve a Panther in the stash, if all fails… an old motorized jobbie in a bizarro scale… but I’m planning on a stop at a great model shop on the way to a wargaming expo next week and will see what they have before I commit to a specific kit.

since the last group build I participated in was ~10 years ago, Steel Cats on FSM Oh man I TOTALLY remember that one. I'll have to look back to see what I built! I would love to be in on this one...but I doubt I would be getting going anywhere near the start date. I can hardly even get to the forum right now with summer business ramping up. Let me see what I've got! |

Come on Dupes, you know you want to! Oh, I absolutely want to! The reality of my work situation may prevent me from doing so. I'll do my best to get started on June 1. Was looking through the stash last night - I have several 1/72 Dragon Panthers that would work, and wouldn't take me forever...  |

There is a Dragon kit for that but it would also be a very easy scratch build mod. One of these kits has sat in the clearance section of my local hobby shop for years.  |

I'm definitely in on this. I just haven't decided which kit yet. I'm leaning towards Ryefield ausf g with the cutouts, but I'm still actively searching.

Good man! Nichimo tracks are made for motorized use and only have a vague resemblance to the real things.

Any scale Partially started okay,not over 50% Dioramas,vignettes,AM all okay This is an armor build,so let's keep it to vehicles. Need to post your start photo,at least a few progress shots,or as many as you want,and of course your finished shots. Finally have fun,and be sure to comment on and encourage each other.Well meaning and useful criticism is also okay. Roster: Anthony Tojo72: Dragon Panther D w/zimm Masterbox Figure Set MrT: Takom Panther A w/interior Armornutii: Takom Jagdpanther G2 w/interior Chromedome35: Academy 1/25 Panther TCoat: Meng Bergepanther A Reserve: Tamiya Jagdpanther Late VW9w43 : 3 assorted Panthers Lowlife : Tamiya Panther Leon: Dragon Bergepanther Hasenpfeffer : Meng Panther D Stikpusher : Italieri Panther A DennisM: 1/48th scale Panther A with 16t Strabokran by Suyata Thechaos: Nichinp Jagdpanther Here is the group badge designed by Jack Geratic,feel free to use it in your signature if you like.If my computer knowledge is correct,you should be able to download it,then upload it to your own photo hosting site and then display it.  Hi Anthony Ok, so I'm!! Two kits too, as there are two in the box. I'm committed to a Japanese plane GB elsewhere but that doesn't start until 1st July. As I'm nearly finished my studies that will give me a month to kill on the modelling front. Nothing very complicated and these are for the wargaming my son and I do. ATB Andrew  |
