Thanks Kevin, it may not be as detailed as your Panther D, but I'm having fun with it.
Hopefully some more pics tomorrow.

....Thinking of adding a tank commander and Panzerjägers similar to the Tamiya box art.

Normandy, your Jadpanther looks great :D

I wish I'd gotten one of these kits back in the day as the Jagdpanther is one of my favorite German WWII armored vehicles.

Thanks for the comments guys, hey Tman see if Pickelhaube has any kits left. Matthews kit is a real
nice one, that's next after I finish this (the Huns) one.

Here's the Pickelhaube Jagdpanther....this is Matthews pic

Thats alright Pickel, once you get back to making armor you'll be ok....... :D

Started on one of the figures, a Panzergrenadier. Most likely three on the back of the tank.

The Panzer Commander is the gray primed torso in the first pic, its a Tamiya 1:16 figure which is the
same size as the 21st figures. :?
