Jagdpanzer IV L/48

Bart Goesaert
very nice work, is the zimmerit self-made? Nice colors and the snow and is discoloration is one of the most realistic I've seen. Could you tell more about it?

Philipp Groß
Thanks a lot Bart! 🙂

The Zimmerit is made from Milliput, the pattern was made with a small screwdriver. Almost like the real thing. I'll add anther picture of it before it was painted.

The snow was made with some railway modelling product, I don't remember the brand. It gave me a lot of trouble, I had to make about 3-4 layers of snow until I was happy. The earth was simply made from brown pigments sprinkled onto the areas that would get dirty.

Really great diorama!

Philipp Groß
Thanks Soeren! 🙂 It won me a prize back when Modelarmour still existed😉

Ulf Petersen
Great model, Philipp!👍 I admire people who make their Zimmerit on their own.

Hi Philippe, what is your opinion about the Revell kit?

Philipp Groß
Thanks again Ulf!

Rui, the Revell kit is the old Dragon/Gunze kit. It's not perfect but it's definitely one of their better kits from that time. If you can get it cheap, do it 🙂 I have a second one, I'll turn it into a late L/48 kit some day.

Hi Philipp, Thx for the information and opinion. I've got it (a bargain), in my stash already.😉 I was wondering about the fit...🙂

Philipp Groß
Fit is about perfect, at least I didn't encounter any problems. I replaced the front fenders on mine because the hinges are oversized, but that's all.
