Bring sharper gun detail to the Panther Ausf.D model

The Tamiya 12664 Metal Gun Barrel Set is a focused upgrade for the 1/35 Panzerkampfwagen V Panther Ausf.D (Tamiya Item 35345). It supplies a precision-formed aluminium barrel plus separate resin breech pieces to enhance both external outline and close-up detail.

Superior surface and profile definition

The aluminium tube reproduces the correct taper and finish of the 7.5cm gun, while resin breech components provide clear casting detail that improves paint and weathering effects compared with the standard kit parts.

Recommended for detail-oriented modellers

Matched to the Tamiya 1/35 Panther Ausf.D, this set is aimed at modellers who want to lift a build from stock to presentation level by refining the turret armament details.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Aluminum and Resin
  • Compatible Kit: Tamiya Item 35345
Minor gaps can appear where the metal barrel meets the mantlet. A small amount of modelling putty and careful sanding will produce a seamless finish before priming.
Degrease the aluminium, lightly abrade the surface, then apply a metal-primer. Once primed you can proceed with standard acrylic or enamel top coats and weathering.
Complementary upgrades include improved mantlet detail, turned metal accessories, and aftermarket photo-etched parts to enhance periscopes and hinges for a more complete presentation.
