Next up - Dragon Jagdpanther G Update 1

So I went with the Jagdpanther for a reason I can no longer remember. This Dragon kit, like most subjects, is much more detailed than the Tamiya version I just worked on. That means more time to do, more meticulous building (much more smaller parts - and some go missing :( ), and overall a bit more skill (or is it patience?)

The kit is superb, the parts are finely crafted, it comes with Zimmerit, there is little to do in terms of clean up, just sprue connections and fine mold lines. The only challenge was which option to build, and what parts to use, which are spares, and which ones I wanted to put on anyway.

Of the six options, I picked the  s.H.Pz.Jg.Abt.645, Western Front 1944. This one had the later 88mm gun, which I like better, more detail, contrast in different parts on the barrel, and more colorful camo pattern, with red id numbers.

The build was long, I tried to be careful as possible but ended up losing a few small parts. With a gray floor, I was screwed from the get go. I had to build from scratch or look for something similar from the spares box.
Anyone have an extra Dragon tow cable "C" clamp?

Basic build is done, paint to come.
