A little bit of weathering. Perhaps there's hope for FOV.

Actually, the little bit of mud and weathering is what I did after recieving this piece. The original FOV pantheer had no weathering what so ever.
I am starting to buy the older releases as their prices will probably hike when collectors see the difference in weathering between the new and old releases.

^ This.
If the older models are still about the same price as the new repaints, then it only makes sense to buy those instead and get a bit better quality.

The older releases also have a larger variety of diorama stuff as well.

Way to go FoV! Another factory-fresh paint job. Those tankers must wash and detail the Panther every day!
