Hi Everyone,
Just thought I would post up the pics of the repaint of this H/L Panther that the club will be raffling at the Open Cockpit Show in July..... Very Happy

Some of you might find these pics of some use if you are planning on a repainting one of your tanks.... Smile

Upper hull and turret done along with the numbers... next step is the lower hull, wheels and rear exhaust panel.

Cheers Ken

Yeah Stince it sort of gives it another depth to the paint work not only does the hull red come through but the light standard paint works comes through also to give another layer..

Tom if I had the money I would be there tomorrow, would love to get out on the field and battle with you guys.... that would be something... Very Happy

Second Lieutenant Posts : 624 Join date : 2013-03-18

Still. Keep the standard high. What if I won?

Sgt-Major Posts : 400 Join date : 2013-03-13

You gotta buy a ticket first Tom..... Very Happy

You buy a ticket and I will change the headlight... Laughing

I am curious, what is wrong with having the headlight on it, these two historic black and white photographs of late Panthers both show a headlight.
