Panther Tank Crew
1/35th Figure Set No. FST040
This recent release
from Firestorm is of a Panther Tank crew in relaxed pose wearing late
war summer uniforms.
The set consists of one full figure and two half figures. The casting is excellent with the usual casting block to be removed. While there wasn't any noticeable release agent residue a bath in warm soapy water wouldn't go astray as with any resin figures.
The detail on the figures is first class with face details well defined.
The resin used is a greenish grey colour and you should undercoat the figures in a light sand colour before painting, this will help with the flesh tones if using oils.
Should look good in any Panther although they could be used in any late war German tank.
This and other figure sets are available direct for Firestorm Models at: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~firestorm1/
Thanks to David
from Firestorm Models for the review sample.
