Pictured with a Panzerjager IV L/70 - This was the tank the E-25 would have replaced if it went into production. It would have used the same gun as the Jagd IV, which was also the same gun used on the Panther tank.

Album info

This was a nice build with a great kit from Trumpeter. The only problem with the build was I put the rear wheel transmission covers on wrong and I had to reposition them so the track would fit AFTER I had painted. I wanted to do something different for the paint job so I made up a camouflage based on the "Octopus" scheme seen on late war Tiger II's. The tank is painted with Tamiya paints and I used two different size hole punchers to make masks to paint the "Octopus" camouflage.
