Hi Tim, outstanding meticulous detail, if you did not know it was a model, you would have said they have just rolled it out of the factory

Tim,
The fan shrouds are fantastic. Another top notch addition. Your tank is a museum piece. Thanks for the inspiration - you keep raising the bar!

Hi

I received these from Bob Morey last week and although they have been posted on the forum before, I thought it was worth showing how amazing they are again.

They are fully functional, metal "C" hooks with locking plungers for the swivel-lock. Also in the photos are Bob's "U" hooks. both a great addition to my Panther. Thanks Bob!

As a side note, My spare track links are coming out of the molds nicely and I am waiting on some pins I ordered. When I have enough to put into kits of 12 links, I will gladly offer them to those who are interested for hull-mounted spares. The first ones are a very tough resin and metal ones may or may not follow in the future. I'll post pictures when I have a set completed. Also, deck parts are coming out of the molds well in the same resin. I will be putting together those sets as well by the end of Sept for those interested.

Thanks

Tim

Wonderful model Tim . It was good to talk to you yesterday. Your machine looks so real ..Tim what colour did you use on your tow rope ? Dale.

Hi Dale

Likewise, it was great talking with you. My tow ropes are a work in progress. I was bored one day and decided to add some paint/color to them attempting to match a color I saw in a photo somewhere of a cable on a panzer in a museum. It's not meant to be rust but ended up kinda looking that way. Not there yet but it's better then my black I had before. I'll try again later and I plan on adding a good amount of weathering and coating of Normandy dust to it before its all over.

Last minute tidbits. Mesh grills installed and MG cover made.

Cheers

Tim,
The details on the fan gaurd are amazing. I have too look twice to make sure you didn't sneak a photo of a real tank in there. Wow!
