    Greetings to all forum members. On this occasion I wanted to share with you a project that I started a few months ago (and that is going to last a few more months).

    It is the Bergepanther Ausf. D, 1/35, from Takom. This particular Bergepanther is the one manufactured by Seibert Stahlbau, in the last year of the war, from broken down Panther tanks. They served the function of tractors, as they lacked a winch and rear shovel. They only had a light winch on the upper part of the hull.

    The quality of the kit is very good. The detailing and fit of the parts is more than correct. In fact, more than half of the parts in the kit are for the interior. A good number of parts are completely hidden after joining the two halves of the hull.

    This first part corresponds to the construction of the interior up to the joining of the two halves of the hull.

    I hope you like it. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.

    Greetings to all!

    These newer kits are incredibly complex, (@juanravi73). I built armor back in the day when Tamiya kits on had 30 or 40 parts and rubber band tracks. Well done.
