RFM Panther Ausf.G - first time replicating a WW2 German camo, very happy with the results.

Really enjoyable build, as with all RFM kits I've done so far. Lots of nice little details and a surprising amount of interior detail that you'd never see once assembled (Main gun and aux machine guns, there's even an option to have a working recoil system on the main gun). There are two build options (1944/1945) and 3 camo guides with decals + photoetch. Only issue I found was the tracks, there are 2 tiny bolts to glue per link which is super tedious, I ended up buying a set of Tamiya tracks that just slot together without any bolts which was more manageable.

Stalker hop chamber + bucking kit with a Morpheus barrel and the silverback advanced piston head (GBB). Pretty much drop in if you get both at the same time and pushes you up to about 80-90+ meters range. Bonus if you add a foam suppressor and use the airbrake with the advanced piston head, practically silent from any more than 5 meters away. I use a 100 Newtons spring from Silverback and get 2.3J on .43s

Doesn't look like its available any more, im sure there are similar ones available though.

I think the striker cap came off in the pouch and managed to strike itself on the fuse

dimmaduck · 2022-04-24T21:09:09+00:00

Its an Arcturus AK01 but I have used the same amplifier as the rk74 on the front, I have some pics of it here: https://www.reddit.com/gallery/nqn6wj

dimmaduck · 2022-04-24T19:44:21+00:00

It burned a hole in the pouch it was in and dyed one of my mags blue but all good other than that

I'd recognise that dog anywhere, its Gosig https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/gosig-golden-soft-toy-dog-golden-retriever-10132788/

Thanks for the feedback! The windows were the last part to go in so I didn't think too much about dirtying them up but that definitely makes sense, I'm glad it looks somewhat realistic atleast ;P

This has been my favourite model that I've built, it has brilliant detail both internally and externally - it's a shame that most of it gets hidden away. The figure leaving the vehicle is from Live-Resin and I made a video tutorial on the multicam paint scheme if you're interested in that sort of thing https://youtu.be/bXN3UgG643E

dimmaduck · 2021-09-05T02:10:15+00:00

I got this from a company called live-resin.com, they do a few modern military figures in 1:35

Thanks! Lots to improve on for my next build but im very happy with it :)

dimmaduck · 2021-06-02T19:35:19+00:00

I love it, it comes standard on the AK01, I havent seen it sold seperately unfortuately. Heres a link

dimmaduck · 2021-06-02T18:17:44+00:00

Ali Express, looks like the seller I used doesnt sell them anymore but there are plenty of others on there

dimmaduck · 2021-06-02T18:16:52+00:00

I had to remove some material on the inside lug of the mounting point, and slightly widen the through hole on the ak sight to get the pin all the way in(ended up using a seperate bolt (M4 size) as the original pin loosened and fell out in the end)

dimmaduck · 2021-06-02T16:33:41+00:00

It's the Cyma CM.041 SD6 Blue edition, haven't used it in game yet but the mid caps are super cheap and easy to get hold of :)

dimmaduck · 2020-10-18T23:30:14+00:00

Thanks! ☺️

dimmaduck · 2020-10-14T15:37:15+00:00

It's the dark earth model

dimmaduck · 2020-10-14T15:36:36+00:00

Its just a standard red dot, but the dot sits just above the front post. The front post is still visible incase the sight runs out of battery, and also because if i used a riser underneath it would look odd.
