Panther II

This is almost OOTB model but I've add some extras to it. It is not finished yet because I want to add scrach build commanders and driver periscopes since Dragon decided to omit this (bad DML) and IR equipment which I have from Tamiya Panther G (I wonder why DML not include IR set in this kit since they made superb Night Fighting Panther). For detailing I used Karya towing cables, spare wheel from kit and some ship modeling chain. Because DML haven't make detailed drivers and radio operator hatches on the inside surface I had to make handle and other parts from scrach. I want to hang bucket somewhere. I have used some spare track hooks on the turret which I took from Italieri Panther Ausf. A kit. I thought, why not since this is SF tank anyway ;) Figures from other DML kit. Tank is painted in ambush camo scheme and could portrait tank used in German offensive against Russians in late 1945 after long opposing to their forces near river Oder. For painting I've used Pactra acrilic enamels. Weathering was made also by same acrilic paints.
