Bandai 1/48 Panther Ausf.G Sd.Kfz.171


A kit from the 70's that holds up well in many ways to those made today.  They always come with good fit and lots of figures.  There is a lot of interior detail, but current research casts doubt on it's complete accuracy. 
A friend on the forums who knows more about tanks than I do (well, that describes a bunch of people!) tells me that the slope of the aft hull is more like an earlier Panther version but the side skirts do hide that
pretty well.  Rubber tracks were in the kit but they must have shrunk as they were way too short so I went elsewhere.  Initially that was Quick Tracks, but that did not work out well at all.
