Brief historical description of the model:

The Panther Ausf. G was one of the Wehrmacht’s most technologically advanced armored vehicles, introduced into service between 1944 and 1945. These tanks played a key role on both Eastern and Western Fronts, including the Battle of the Bulge. The version with Zimmerit—a special anti-magnetic coating applied at the factory—was characterized by its resistance to magnetic mines and its typical surface texture. This coating was used until September 1944, mainly on the Eastern Front.

Product details:

This allows you to achieve a realistic appearance for your model without the need for laborious paste application. The metal parts faithfully reproduce details such as edges and interruptions in the coating, with full attention to proportions and component placement.
