First up is all the parts. Including all the track links. Brass details and even some pieces that are wrapped in some foam for protection -
This is a interesting model of the Super Pershing from HobbyBoss. The kit has a lot of details including full engine bay and individually linked tracks. Along with torsion bar suspension.

Quite a bit of progress since last check in. got the turret skirts all on. Sorted the gun and muzzle break out with a bit of weathering and now gonna to add more to the whole turret at some pint now. I have made the smoke launchers on ether side of the turrets front god they were fiddley with 8 tiny pieces each. But there looking good now. have decided to have all the hatches open on the turret so worked that out best I could and it looks great. Even if I do say so my self. -

Finishing up putting the parts of the turret skirts together. And dry fitting them to the tank along with the gun. And commanders hatchets Quite happy with the hatches and cupola. And with the parts dry fitted to the tank. Gonna paint the unpaited bits now and add the rest of the turret hatches. In the open position. -

Done some more work on the Panzer. Got the front of the Gun mantlet put together. And the barrel along with it. With those pieces glued together I moved onto painting and dry fitting the gun barrel and muzzle. as a whole these parts fit together very nicely. however I find that I had to file down the aligning lug inside the mantlet piece as the barrel was actually sitting with the break at a 30° angle instead of being level. Also stuck together one piece of the turret skirts. to see how it looks. -

Had a small pice break in removing it from the sprue. Managed to repair and place it. So main storage box is now installed on the turret too. -

Ah yes I did a lot of searching and looking in some games like Tank Mechanic Simulator. and found that majority of courses showed a light cream/Beige colour. the blue colour. was supposed to be darker but I quite like the look and contrast so I kept it instead of scrubbing and starting again. -

Well it's been a while. Have been to a convention and a military show (Militrax in the Netherlands) while waiting for replacement parts to come in. But now atleast work can continue. -

I It's definitely a nice kit tho this one is branded as the G verient. There is on there website the actual H verient as well. This kit however is like a mix between a 4G and A 4H. Still a nice kit -

There is definitely alot more loose tools on these German tanks compared to US and British tanks. But it's nice putting them all together and painting them. Very satisfied with this. First off the convoy light. Really happy with this tiny detail.Its such a simple yet ingenious way of keeping distance. If the following tank/vehicle is too close they would see all 4 lights. If to far they would see 1 block of light. But if at the right distance they would see 2 blocks of light. Now some hatches And before details shots Left sideRight side And now with the details Right side Left sideand a little close up -

There are so many tools and pieces of equipment attacked to the sides of this tank. And most other German tanks. Do you think they ever heard of using a tool box? Lotsa small details. Also really happy with thoes spare wheels I painted Theo's with no guide or cover/masking. And I also stuck on a small handle. -
astounding looking build. love the detail and scene.

It's a good model but I have found some issues with it. Firstly an error in casting leaving 2 holes slightly out of line but easily accounted for. But 2ndly I wouldn't call this a panzer 4H or 4G it's like an amalgamation of both. Biggest difference I have found so far being the radio antenna. On the 4h or any verient with the side skirts it should be on the back left side of the hull and there should be something in between the side skirt and hull were it is normally. But it's in the standard location. I'll come back and show with some images when I get round to it. But with that being said it's still a great model. Yet to do the turret but that looks like it's going to be the main bit of fun with a full basket and interior. -

Well what a day. I am now a fully qualified counter balance lift truck (forklift) operator. So what better way to celebrate than doing a little more tank. First up a couple towing hooks. Fastened them loosely into there brackets. After gluing the 1st bracket I had to slot the hooks into place.And here's there rest of the tools
