Grossdeutschland Panther Camo

[Christopher G.]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had some examples of summer camo patterns for a Grossdeutschland panther? I am doing a model and really dont have anything to go by and I have been unable to find anything I really like.

I have one here but I would like to see any others people might have.

Thanks,
Chris G.

Well I dont think I am going to get too many responses so I am just going to continue adding to this post.

Thank you Derka...does there happen to be any other shots of that camo scheme? Possibly like a top or front view?

Regards,

Very nice color profiles, some of these looks like variations on the same color patterns, that's one of the things I love about WW2 German armor camo jobs, since these where usualy applied by the tank crew or field mainteinace unit, the amount of forms and patterns can be from the simple to the most "busy looking" camo paint job, it all depended of the available time and ability of the painter(s).

Good luck with your model and hope to see it in the scale model area in the forum.
