Hi there,
I’ve been working on this thing for a while, mostly working the hole summer has given me little time to finish the tank. I tryed to find my old post, but counldn’t find it. On my Panther all thats left is putting the two sets of tool racks on, finishing painting the crew member, find out how to put the rubber strips of tracks on right.
Thanx for posting the pics. May I make a suggestion? You incorrectly placed the side fenders. Have a look here for how they actually mounted:

Hope this helps
Hay thanks for changing that T26E3, I counldn’t tell on the sheet which way to put them. The only peaice that don’t fit right is the hach on back of turret, when the gun breach is in the upper postion it force the hach open?
Not bad. I see you’re having a bit of trouble painting the inner wheels? That’s why I leave them off myself. Did you mask the camo or hand paint it? It looks like you might have a fingerprint on the camo part of the barrel.
I used silly putty for painting the camo, it worked fine. Which picture did you see a fingerprint on?
The first one. I apologize if I’m wrong.
On the barrel it looks like…
Looking good!
I’ve looked on the tanks barrel and can’t find a fingerprint? On the picture it kind’d looks on one? Well anyway, I finished putting the two tool racks together and mounted them on, along with the two tow ropes. And figured out how to wrap and glue the rubber tracks on.
in the second pic it definitely looks like a fingerprint there.
other than that it looks pretty good.
Oh do you mean the barrel that has dark green on it, and theres a spot of red brown on it? I see, that’ll be fix in no time.
