I liked the original paint better, why not leave it as it were and just restore it to running condition in original colors....

Pity, there are too many "factory fresh" restorations out there, just conserving, replacing the missing bits & displaying it with its history would have (IMHO) been better.

I think that's a shame - there are lots of Panthers around in German camouflage, but there were only 2 in FF markings.

It's interesting they've put on Zimmerit, though I don't believe it originally had any.

large areas covered by Zimmerit have been found on the lower hull walls (the area behind the road wheels). That's why they decided to put zimmerit on it.

The 88 looks like the way I used to paint my old Airfix models

Ditto haha Smile

it sure qualifies with honors for the "Baby Poop Pattern" category!
