Sean,
Excellent Panther so far, looking forward to seeing this one finished. I'm doing a similar Ambush scheme to my Tiger, but minus the Zimmerit, the tracks for mine are individual links and a time consuming pain.

Great progress on your build and interesting wartime pix.
The Tiger is painted up but still a long way too go.
