Meng 1:35 Panther Ausf. A kit Review
Hello and welcome to Scale Stuff in this weeks video I am going to be reviewing the Meng Models 1:35 scale German Medium Tank Sd.Kfz. 171 Panther Ausf. A model kit
kit number tyrannosaurus series TS-035
In this video I take a look at the model kit in the box and then go on to look at how the model kit goes together and point out a few bits in the kit that you as the modeller might find a little tricky to build
I also take a look at how accurate the model is compared to the real tank and give a very brief history of the Panther tank
Over all I found the Meng Panther late type a really good model, it goes into a lot of detail more so than any other panther tank that I have built and personally with all the extra photo etched parts clear bits and wire that this kit comes with felt that meng had really tried to look after the model kit maker with this kit
It falls short on a few little details like the bolts on the wheels but personally I feel that this little error can be forgiven
As always thank you for watching I hope that if you are building one of these kits at home that you found my little review helpful
Anyway until next time look after yourself and have a good one
good bye

      Only mentioned having to spend a night in the DUKW tied up to a ship overnight, possibly when D day was postponed and how the tyres could be inflated whilst in motion. I don't know what lorries he drove afterwards but he nearly lost his life whilst resupplying a fuel dump which was attacked by a plane, everything behind his vehicle disappeared in the explosion.

    As far as paint goes, that's why i stick with Tamiya spray cans. You don't have to do 4+ light passes with it. Tamiya isn't prone to running, so first coat I "dust" it lightly then let it sit for about 4-5 minutes and then let her rip. One good coat with Tamiya and it's always perfect.

    like the brush painting instead of airbrush. although airbrush is technically better, most of normal people might use brushes so nice to see those videos.

      Yeah best of both worlds if the wheels can go on accurately, you get the solid track and detail plus speed, the link in link tracks can be a bit much I have literally spent longer making tracks than I have the entire tank on some models

    Did you do a panel lining/pin wash between the paint and adding the decals? (and from there did you gloss coat it before?) I have this same build ready to go, just trying to get a feel what to do with it. (Love the paint job here)
