My second build from Vespid, the first one being the most excellent A34 Comet, and another cracking little kit. Not the cheapest (i think $25 ish), but well worth the dollars. Lots of cool detail, PE parts, options for different versions, nice decals, nothing to really fault it. These newer kits just go together easily. I left the hatches open (on the Trumpeter and Zvezda kits you cannot), and added two excellent AB tank commanders. Also added my own plastic aerial.
Painting I sort of copied the box art with a brown and dark green splotchy camo over usual dark yellow. Some brown washes and plenty of european earth powder. I also added some muddy texture under the hull above the tracks. Tracks were done quite rusty with highlights using a pencil for the metallic effect.
Overall lots of fun and well recommended. Now I have four finished Jagdpanthers that is more than enough …… he said never………
Now that is very nice indeed, Will, and good that you could put some crew figures on it! 🙂 I like the camouflage scheme, not as much overall yellow showing on this one and it looks really good!

thanks John! yes always like adding some extra figures. My other Jagdpanthers also had no open hatches so this can be the command tank

That is very nice. The crew figures certainly lift it up.
I’ve always liked the rakish sloped front armour of the Jagdpanther…
Cheers,
Pete.

Another great piece of work Will, you certainly have mastered the art of Cammo!!
I have to agree with john in regards to the figures really completing the job, I just purchased an Airfix model plane only to find they no longer supply the crew like they did once , such a shame!
