flyinghorse Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) I will be building a Tamiya 1/35 scale Panther Ausf. A. It's an inexpensive but old mold of a decades old kit but looks very fun. My only complaint is that it comes with markings for multiple tanks, but no information as to which units these markings belong to. Can anyone help me with identifying them? Thanks.

Could you post a scan of the decal sheet? Might give an idea as to what the tank is to represent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stef N. Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 2nd SS Das Reich is the knocked over Z. GrossDeutschland is the helmet. 3rd SS Totenkopf is the skull. The one with the key is 1st SS Liebstandarte. The others will definitely know the other symbols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longbow Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 You may find, unfortunately, that that kit is so old that they just made up the markings for the market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
