Thanks Phil Lloyd

Thanks Chris Thanks M3talpig Lloyd

Thanks Steve I don't know where you would put much more detail. Thanks John Yes I have the older Academy Magach and the Meng is quite a bit better, especially with all the ERA. Of course it's newer and twice as costly. Lloyd

Thanks greif11 Lloyd

Impressive viper. Sure looks like 1:1 scale to me. Geez, every time I look at the photos I see more details, beautiful job. Lloyd

Quite a project and a superb job Phil. I like Jagdpanthers and love this one. Lloyd

Thanks Darryl The panels are kit supplied and the numbers are decals. Yes that's an air recog panel, or supposed to be, actually orange painted tissue, lol. Lloyd

Thanks redcap. Yes the modern stuff is rather "blah" Lloyd

Thanks Bandit Lloyd

Finally did some more on this and will call it complete.

Looks interesting. Lloyd

Thanks Darryl. Yesterday I got the tires off the tractor and sanded them with 80 grit and installed the steps under the cab doors so the crew can get in. There's hope yet, it may get painted soon, lol. Lloyd

Thanks viper This one is a couple of years old now. Lloyd

Thanks armored Yes it will be pretty much the same as the box photo, I hope. The thing just falls together no problems (yet) and it's ready for paint when the operator gets at it. Lloyd

Here it is more or less finished.

Thanks John This one could use a bit more work on the tires, eventually I'll get back to it. I have a LAV-25 SLEP on the go to go with these two also. Lloyd

Thanks Darryl Sanded the hell out of the tires with 80 grit then just a bit of pigments. Lloyd

Thanks Darryl Lloyd

I didn't have any real problems with it Rob. I did pick up the new Hobby Boss Leopard C2 MEXAS not long ago and it's a more detailed kit. Lloyd

Another small project in between all the Russian builds

Fun little project.

Thanks Darryl Yes almost 2 feet long. That's a T-72A sitting on it. Lloyd

Thanks Darryl Now to get at that KZKT Transporter to put his on. Got some nice tie down chains and resin hooks and chain tighteners from Accurate Armour that I want to use on that and some home made chocks. Hope it looks and works ok. Lloyd

That looks great John. That for sure is an ugly muzzle brake. Like the rolled canvas and the straps, no... dammit I like everything. Super job. Lloyd

They look great Darryl. I bought one set for a Panther way back when and they are much better than the Meng or Dragon offerings and magnitudes better than the dumb Tamiya rubber band junk. The sag is realistic and they add some heft to the model and it's easy to have some worn bare metal on the tread faces and the guide horns. The drawback is they are over Cdn$80 per set. Run a lead pencil around the rims of the inside road wheels to show where they rubbed on the inside of the guide horns when you get to the weathering. They were usually pretty bare metal. Lloyd
