Surely a bicycle is also in order? No bicycle jabbly, adding a bucket to a Panther's rear however makes me happy.

Excellent looking buckets, Guy. The grandkids go to Disney when I kick one like that.

Thanks guys. I've decided to leave one off, it looked like overkill.

I skipped a diorama for the Panther. It will be glued onto a display base I'm preparing. And the Panther is getting done as well. Photos follow soon. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Hello guys, not much, just a photo of the display base I had to strip from a not so good diorama. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Tamiya putty was thinned with Tamiya Laquer Thinner and besides the terrible fumes that came off I managed to apply it where necessary. Next is the black paint to be airbrushed on. ![](https://i.ibb.co/YDr2vKT/IMG-20221101-074146.jpg)

That should make a nice base when it’s done, Guy.

Are them buckets the brass ones? Indeed, they're brass Ian. I had to fill and sand a lot to get rid of the uneven surface (once a diorama was built on it). I'm glad you like the idea of a stand alone model. Currently I'm at work in my daughter's house which means no benchtime today.

Hello guys, with the details painted and a mist of Testors Dullcote sprayed on subtly this ride has come to an end. It was a great journey and now I know just a little more on the difficult subject "Panzerkampfwagen V" or Panther. The one I finished is an Early D type with a D2 turret. I hope you enjoy the end result of my effort. The commander will be painted in another thread. Thank you as always for your supportive comments, you fellas rock! ![](https://i.ibb.co/DY5gc8z/IMG20221103114305.jpg) More photos in my thread Armorguy's 2022.
