Panther F by Shige

He's at it again, this time with a late war oddity. Once again with a piece of "Destroyed" tank in the dio.. What a guy!

Re: Panther F by Shige

The infantry around the destroyed 'bit' looks very real. That turret on the Panther is my all time winner for the ugliest change to a tank in history. Much preferred the original but the whole thing is still a nice job, especially the landscaping.

Re: Panther F by Shige

Holy smokes...look at the realism in those figures. The guy craning his neck to see with his mouth open is AWESOME. Seems to me that figures in realistic, fluid poses are pretty unusual. I love the dented storage bins at the rear and of course, the T-34 arse...wouldn't be The Good Doctor without it.
Gotta agree with MAGNA on the turret. While it has it's own appeal, it's a blight on an otherwise 'beautiful' beast. It looks simpler design-wise.
Thanks Dave...as usual, amazing stuff.

The archway with all the vines and stuff adds heaps to the dio.

Shigeyuki's groundwork always makes it real for me. If you look carefully you'll find at least 5 different types of vegetation on the base.

Very Nice,

The attention to detail on the ground is amazing... but then so are the figures, and the armor, and the...

Agreed with all the remarks above...and I love the flex in the tracks, too!

Thumbs up Re: Panther F by Shige

How long does it take this guy to finish one of these? He's gotta be retired for this....

Cheers, yep, the terrain really sells it for me.
