Scale Modelling the Panther Ausf.G Early in 1/35

The Panther Ausf.G Early stands as a notable example of late-war German tank design. This Tamiya 1/35 kit recreates the vehicle's external form and fittings with attention to scale accuracy.

Combat Development Summary

Conceived to meet the challenges posed by Allied armour, the Panther combined sloped frontal protection with mobility. The Ausf.G variant implemented changes to armor layout and manufacturing methods as operations evolved in 1944.

Mechanical Overview

Features such as the Maybach HL230 engine and a torsion-bar running gear gave the Panther a balance of speed and protection. The kit mirrors these traits in the chassis and suspension parts.

Model Build Highlights

Tamiya's precise moulding and part design make the kit attractive to modellers who focus on accurate assembly and period-appropriate paintwork.

Specifications

  • Scale specified as 1 in 35
  • Manufactured from polystyrene
  • Glue required to complete the model
  • No paint is included with the kit
This kit is targeted at modellers with some prior experience. The level of detail and number of small components can be challenging for first-time builders.
Adding fine aftermarket parts, careful paint layering, and subtle weathering will greatly enhance realism. Reference photos help guide accurate finishing choices.
