Small Scale Military Headquarters

Ok here go's I have totally cut up a good panther and tiger to make this beast.The tiger is going to be a strum later on so I used foward muzzle and back piece of barrel for jagdP.I used the mantle of the panther and put it inside so barrel would still move up and down.Made templates for all sides scratch built all stuff from lower hull up I still have to finish top plate.The side, front and back are real tricky because the front is a little wider than the back so you have to have the right distance for it to look right from the top.The Mantle and plate were a pain in the#%@ but it's taken on really good shape.I made the mantle from supersculpey and the plate out of balsa foam a really good carving material.Then I seamed it all with milliput.I would like to know your guys opnion on this thanks Dave

Hope you'll share some pics of the finished product!!

WOW This is looking Bloody awesome

It`s always great when you get to see the WIP on projects like this

Love the Mantle BTW,that`s great,though so is everything else too

Look forward to seeing more as it develops.

Good work! This is what I like to see.
Besides, modelling is fun and creative.

Keep us posted.

Great looking Jagdpanther Problemchild!
The mantlet looks fine. I can't wait to see the finished vehicle.

Wow there's no stopping you PC. This Jagdpanther is looking good. You would think the folks at 21st would have come out with this model years ago. Keep up the great work.

Yeah, they did, but it didn't make it into the 1/18 scale.

thanks again to all here are more pics I finally gave it a yellow base coat to see where all the bad spots are the grey you see is putty.I taped barrell on for now it's to long to work with so it will go on last.I need to finish top and it's almost ready for paint.I really don't know why 21st won't do one of these in 1/18 it would be cool, but I would rather see a king tiger

Nice job man ! ....Looks "bad to the bone" already...Now this is just another example of what can actually be done to anything,...especially 1:18 stuff...EXCELLENT !

I want one of those!!!! Can you make me one!!!! Just kidding.

Great work! I agree with you - a Jagdpanther massproduced in 1:18 would be very cool, as well as a King Tiger. 21c did and excellent job with their 32x versions of both those vehicles, save that the 1:18 tanks would have to include an interior!

Great Job!

Excellent. The Jagdpanther has always been one of my favorites. Keep posting shots as you progress. It is a good way to show the construction techniques and details.
