Nice job and great attention to details on the Half Track...

Thanks a lot😁👍🏻

Very nice. I did this one years ago, and apart from wondering where all the troops were from the front painting, found it to be a good little model. As for airbrushes, well.... I did buy one years ago, found it a pita to clean up and prepare, and haven't bothered with it after that. For just about every single type of camo (even the vaunted "cloud" camo on Luftwaffe aircraft, caunter on British tanks, etc) I managed brush techniques to get fairly good representation. I model for relaxation and enjoyment, and since I didn't find airbrushing enjoyable (the finish was very nice though) I haven't bothered with it since.

Thanks a lot. It is a good one despite the lack of crew haha. I wholeheartedly agree with you, it’s about having fun and trying new things to see if it works for you. I’ll definitely give airbrushing a go some time this year thoguh😁👍🏻

Nice work I'm going to get one

Great memories - building them and wargaming with them too - more innocent days for sure. Thanks for the trip down Memory Lane pal.

Nice video, and well done with the build. I have quite a few Airfix Vintage Classic kits, all in 1/76, and they can be very nice to not very good at all. This one looks 'okay.' I've built the Panther I and it was okay, except for the tracks, while the Mark I Male Tank and German 88mm Gun and Tractor kit are both are excellent. Unbuilt I have the Buffalo and Willys Jeep, and it looks nice, while the AEC Matador/6-pounder gun and the Bren Gun Carrier (which doesn't come with a Bren gun 🤔) look just okay. But, they're all fun little kits...

Thanks a lot, glad your emjoyed it. It’s definitely is showing it’s age but it’s still as you said okay and fun to build. I’ve avoided the old Airfix Panther like the plague I must say haha. The 88mm was a really good kit, I’m sure it was a lot of fun to play with as a kid with the folding arms and the towing wheels haha. The universal carrier I did seemed fine. The 6 pounder it came with seemed a bit full though sadly. Have a good weekend👍🏻😁

Nice work on this Airfix kit! It's an oldie, but goodie! PS: went looking for the Zvezda 1/72 Panther. Did find a 1/72 Zvezda Ferdinand snap-tite. Really nice kit!

Cheers mate😁👍🏻. It sure is a classic! Yeah I’ve actually got a video for the Ferdinand in the works too. It’s a good kit but the way you assemble it is really strange, there’s like an internal structure to help line stuff up🤔

It's a shame Airfix dropped the tarpaulin cover for the roof from the kit

It would’ve been a nice touch, especially without any crew or cargo. Was it in the original kit?

@Luca_Sprues_Model_Kits Yes many years ago, I built loads of them, then as normal life takes over and I've just got back to modelling. So I was a bit disappointed with no cover in the kit.

That is a real shame@@tregaronwales I guess you could possibly scratch build a cover somehow.
