Yep, if they don't increase the price by 60%, as they did with the 'Mossie'.

Excellent work on that one!

Taken from Serbian modelling forum... This guy made Panther Ausf. G in 1/35th scale. It's a scratch build and main material is copper. Here's few finished shots and a link to more finished shots...

Here's a few shots of work in progress and link to entire work in progress. Be sure to check the link, all text and comments are in Serbian language, but I believe that pictures speak more-less for themselves.

I'm always impressed by true model engineering, and the Panther is really excellent. Wonder why 1/35th scale though, with a number of good kits around? I thought he'd maybe want a larger scale, to be truly unique. But, it's his model, so he can do what he wants, and he's really made a superb job of it!
Some nice work, especially in 1/144th scale, on those airliners. Still puzzles me which clear windows aren't used, rather than decals.

 

[javlin]

I think for one Terry I would definitely not want to have to mask off all those windows and two the decals colors and translucency is quite good.

 

[Airframes]

Good point Kevin - but many airliners have the cheat lines across the length of the windows, and these are provided as decals, so it could be done by masking the line of the decal, and applying the decal to bare plastic. I know it's fiddly, as I've done it, but worth it, as I think 'solid' windows, printed on the decals, spoil an otherwise good model, and more so on the flight deck windows. However, if the only decals available have windows printed on them, fair enough. But those flight deck windows could still be clear ....
