Background on the Panther Ausf.G late model

The Panther Ausf.G late variant represents a matured design in German armour development, combining the long L70 75mm gun with improvements to protection and production. Introduced in 1943, it played a significant role in mid to late war operations.

Modelling value and period features

Late Ausf.G examples show revised armour profiles and a reworked gun mantlet that reduced vulnerable shot traps. These authentic differences give scale modellers specific details to reproduce for historical accuracy.

Kit build and presentation tips

This Tamiya release reproduces the late Panther exterior with crisp moulding on the engine deck and intake areas. The kit is well suited to careful painting and presentation on a plinth or in a small diorama.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Required for authentic finish
The kit reflects the late production changes such as mantlet shape and upper hull revisions, making it a reliable representation for display models and study builds.
Intermediate skills are beneficial due to smaller fittings and the need for precise painting. However, careful beginners can follow step-by-step instructions to achieve a good result.
Apply a clear matt or satin varnish to lock in weathering and decals. Use a dust-free case or cabinet to reduce handling and preserve paint and finish over time.
