wow JT  This is truly impressive stuff!!! That diorama with the Abrams is just impressive with loads of detail...like the Panther as well Got a question about that btw: those anti aircraft plates on the engine bay: did you weather them first and add them afterwards to the model or did you weather them onto the model? I'm asking this 'cause one of my Panther stuff got them too and they seem quite fragile... Cheers |

Thanks guys for the great replies.
Hi Wouter, I left them off and painted them and the panther seperate. They were pretty fragile, when they were assembled I put them on a little ball of blu tack on a piece of cardboard to paint them.
Cheers
JT
