So after looking over the old AMT/Hasegawa decals from this kit and another kit of the same boxing I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that there is just no way for me to use the original decals. The decal's film itself is fine but the ink has very large cracks through the roundels that even a couple of coats of varnish would not fix. Luckily, I have a decent sized decal stash and the same subject is on one of my ESCI Starfighter sheets! Now I just have to find that sheet! LOL :-D

Nicolas
Nice Project, I'm watching.

Rando
Bring on the crazy conversions, definitely want to see this!

Moreno Baruffini
Me too!!! Following,!

Nicolas, Rando & Moreno Baruffini, welcome to the project!

Moreno Baruffini
Thanks to you! Really a great start!

Rando
Had no idea that they made a carrier borne Mosquito til I saw this project, lots of interesting and unique features to include here

J35J
@Rando - Thanks for your intrest, indeed it is a quite unique bird.
Derived from the Mosquito the Sea Mosquito was intended to be used aboard the Fleet Air Arm's aircraft carriers. During its time in service it would only be used by land based squadrons. Two variants of the de Havilland Sea Mosquito were built and only 67 was produced.

Neil
Very interesting project. Looking good J35J. Following 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Joining the party 👍 very nice job so far

J35J
Thanks Neil & Łukasz Gliński for your comments.

Andy Ball
well, this version I haven't heard of, so I'll crane my neck over yours...

Łukasz Gliński
Seems quite a logical idea - staying afloat in case of ditching into the sea 😄

Bernd Grün
Very nice project. It turns out very well. 👍 Didn't know anything about Sea Mosquitos.

J35J
Thanks mates for your intrest and kind comments. The project is slowly moving forward. Waiting for some photo etch parts.

David Taylor

Rando
Damn what a clean paint job.

J35J
Thanks David & Rando for you comments. Much appreciated👍🏻
Paint job and a light weathering in progress. Need to crack on with the decals in next phase before getting the folded wings in place.

Robert Podkoński
Somehow I missed this project before... And I have never heard about Sea Mossie up to now... Great job so far - keep it up!

BC NRA
This is very impressive work. I didn't know there was a Sea Mosquito.

J35J
Thanks BC NRA for your kind comments. Yes, the Sea Mosquito was a rare bird. Always fun to research & build the more odd versions.

Started working on the Bronco workable track link set.

M4A1
Finished putting together one side of the tracks of the Panther. Added also a picture of each of the German infantry men after two rounds of painting.

M4A1
Added a picture of the Panther in Normandy where I'm basing this project on.

Rui S
Looking good 👍

Mathias Decommere
This is going to be massive

M4A1
Thanks guys. Just bought this Takom Panther and a set of German tank riders after I found the black and white picture of the Panther in Normandy and started modelling. Let's see where this project will go.

CaptGPF
I smell a diorama in the making! Watching to see how this turns out. 😃

M4A1
Your smell is right. 🙂

M4A1
The Panther is ready for a coat of primer. Construction is complete. Added some jerry cans to the hull and a helmet to the turret. Also added the machine gun to the turret cupola and gave it a little PE upgrade.

M4A1
Started working on the base using leftover foam parts.

M4A1
The Panther has got a layer of grey primer and now a black layer of paint for preshading when applying the dark yellow base color.

Rui S
Perfect gloss? black preshade 👍

M4A1
Thanks Rui. Did some more work on the base. Added more leftover pieces of foam and it looks alot more like the base of the Normandy bocage now.

M4A1
Finished the construction of the foam part of the base of the hedgerow. Next step is adding sand to it.

M4A1
Added sand to the base and after drying, I spraypainted it black. Now working on the base with scenery material which is making good progress.

M4A1
Started working on the bushes and trees. Making them myself with pieces of sea foam and green foliage.

Neuling
Coming along nicely ......

CaptGPF
Love the different shades you have on the foliage - especially the tree.

M4A1
Thanks guys!

M4A1
Painted the Panther in it's dark yellow base color and after that with 3 tone camo.

M4A1
Painting details on the Panther and that goes very well.

M4A1
Started with the wheatering of the Panther.

Mr James
Looking good so far

M4A1
Thanks James! 🙂

M4A1
The Panther is finished. Now working on the base and the figures.

M4A1
Added a new set of photos of the Panther from all kind of angles. Added a little bit of dried mud and sand to the upper parts of the hull and to the turret roof.

gorby
Very nice work!

M4A1
Thank you!

M4A1
The 4 German infantry soldiers are done. Only thing left to do is add a bit of mud to their boots. That leaves the 2 tankers to be finished.

Dave Flitton
Excellent work!

M4A1

M4A1
The finished German figures test fitted on the Panther.
