Hi All,

Just a few snaps of my Panther feeling at home in the snow













Short video:



Thanks Antony

that is a great colour scheme anthony,it comes into its own when the snow is around,you can see why they did it, regards simon manning.

Thanks Simon,

Here's a couple more Panzer III's in winter camo:



Solid White



Disruptive White

I think the disruptive scheme is the most effective unless the tank is in an open field covered in snow (The Stepps for instance)

Thanks Antony

Hi Ant,

Great photos mate, we have had a little bit more snow than that, about 125mm. took my tiger out and it jammed the tracks up, just a bit too deep, or maybe the wrong type. Hopefully it should freeze tonight so I will try again tomorrow

Paul.

Great photos Anthony, you've got the perfect camouflage for this kind of weather

I like the false perspective you've captured in some of the pictures

Adrian.

Nice shots Ant, good fun driving in the snow, i was out for about an hour with the bulldozer but lost the feeling in my fingers so had to retreat indoor's to thaw out.

Tony, I especially like the side view looking through the trees, definately Ardennes! The camo paint looks great in the snow! Happy Holidays!

Anthony,

The Panther is outstanding!

The snow......well, I like it on Chrstmas Eve and Day; but, before and after that, I can do without it...... But, please feel free to use it for picture back-drops and setting. Just sort of keep it to yourself (GRIN!) - BUT PLEASE KEEP SHARING THE PICTURES!

Anyway, never mind me.....HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Hi All,

A bit more snow a few more photo's:











Thanks Antony

And yet more snow so a few more photo's and a small video clip..........

























Thanks Antony

One of your road wheels on the right handside is not rotating. Or did you know that?

Is this an example of the road wheels freezing, as in Barbarossa, or something else?

Steve

Hi Antony,
Your Panther looks better than ever in the snow, bet you want the snow to last for ever

Steve

Hi Steven,

Yes I noticed that but it's just been way too cold to see why it's done that. It could be frozen but more likely just needs a bit of lubrication I tell what these things are great fun in the snow and their grip is superb. Luckily the snow just seems to come off and has not clogged up at all .

Hi Steve,

Yes I think the snow will be with us a little longer so I'll get more photo's a video in a new location for a change

Thanks Antony
