recently looking at some posts, and found some stuff about panthers fighting around Budapest. Being of Hungarian decent, i am real curious. any info, pics of models and tanks.
Wiking SS were the only SS division never accused of attrocities , being a viking myself , I kinda like that fact ! There are a few pics on missing links site about the wiking panther division , the tanks had a very unusual camo scheme , kind like triangles on the turret.
sorry about the wait , having a bit of trouble with the formatting on the other pic ,… so i got one to work ( they are pretty much the same anyhow ) . Now supposedly these are wiking division panthers on training manuevers , I don’t know where .
this i a clip of a formation of Wiking moving up to combat near the Seelow Hights
if you get the Tankpower books there some nice paintings and photos in them
I painted it like one in East Bavaria, like in the picture, and got the turrret on today. i still need to paint the rd wheels, and am waiting for my friul. Looks good so far. Tried some new weathering techniques. i’ll put some pictures up. (now where did i put the camera[?][?])[:p]
i think that there is a picture on the net of a knocked out panther (maybe a wiking one) in the middle of a square next to a fountain in Budapest. i’ll try and find the website for you just in case you are interested.
