This is a single unit build of a WWII German Panther D, from around 2010 or 11. Flames of War sells individual blister pack units of their 15mm miniatures, too. I needed an extra Panther for a game I was going to play in and I figured this would be a good opportunity to test my brush painting skills on a complex camo pattern. The Panther came with a solid resin hull and metal accessories. You will note in the finished work pictures that I did not opt to use decals... I don't recall why exactly. The turret comes loose, and I had still not learned about using rare earth magnets to secure them in place yet, but may do so in the future (alternatively, a little BluTac works nicely for that purpose).
The Tank Commander came out great!
For scale comparison, the 15mm miniature placed next to my 1/35 scale plastic model!
