And the example it will be finished as using left over parts and decals from a Meng Panther.

I was invited over to a friends on Friday to play with his airbrush. So off I toddled. And this is the result (the hatches are just tacked in place). Not bad for a first try.

INterior looks brilliant.  I have the Mcdowell book, too.   But I didn't even open it when I did my Tamiya Kursk Panther...   I wanted that one OOB.
