jean Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Hi Dennis, this is from a complete illiterate when it comes to armor. Would the Jagdpanther qualify, although I suspect it may not? Cheers JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shall I add you to the list ? Dennis Post #62 on page #3 shows some of the Jagdpanzer models available.

Bergepanther, anyone? The French army used Panthers for a few years after the war. However what would be really interesting would be to see a model of a post-war production Panther. Nine Panthers and twelve Jagdpanthers were completed after VE day under the supervision of the REME. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mig Eater Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) The Panther in the Bovington museum is from that post-war batch, it's different from the wartime produced versions as British parts were used in a few places to fill in the gaps etc. Edited November 29, 2019 by Mig Eater 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis, I confess. I did actually apply to join, not realising that I already had, and then deleted that bit so my previous post does say 'edited'.

Mig Eater Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) I had originally planned to make a Panzer V mit 12.8cm "Scorpion" for this GB (which Corsair graciously allowed even tho it's a "Paper Panzer"), however my stash has grown to now include several different Flakpanther variants that are drawing my attention. Most are "Paper Panzers" too, several of them reached the wooden mock-up stage though. There is still over 10 months to the start of the GB so plenty of time to decide, but I feel I might struggle as there are just so many Panther variants to pick from...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 Not that my opinion counts for much. However 1,2,6, & 5 in that order would be my choices out of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mig Eater Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 As GB host it is your duty to guide me in my hour of indecision 😝 1. I dont have this one, Takom have a kit of it which is readily available though. 2. I have the old Dragon kit, along with a much needed PE set. 3. I have a resin turret but I need a hull, was thinking an Ausf.A with zimmerit. 4. Kit bash of a leftover E-50 Flakpanzer turret & a Tamiya Ausf.G hull. 5. This would be a scratch build/3D print project on maybe an Amusing Hobby Panther II hull. 6. Trumpeter is releasing a kit of this next year, which I'll be getting ASAP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems 2-3 are the most likely candidates as you have them already. 8 minutes ago, Mig Eater said: This would be a scratch build/3D print project on maybe an Amusing Hobby Panther II hull. This is my second best option but i know how hard and time consuming designing the pieces is. Im still kind of waiting on a Patton variant ? 😉 9 minutes ago, Mig Eater said: 6.

Now of course you don't mind outlaying $£€ then 1 & 6 become contenders. If you are telling me that you want me to tell you which one then it falls to my favorite choice #1 followed by #2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did one for a Tiger build some time ago; they are just a bit of fun but great to build! Yes they qualify. They do represent an actual vehicle, albeit in a somewhat distorted way but it was a real tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 My choices for this GB. The Panther is an old kit, originally dating from 1969. It can be classed as "a kit I didn't build as a kid but wanted to". I'm looking forward to finally building it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im probably going with either the Tamiya Ausf G or Academy Ausf G in 1/35th. Im planning on modifying it into a Skorzeny M10 clone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
