The easiest thing to overdo or Misuse. This Panther is going to be a war horse. I decided to focus the damage on the driver's side of the tank. Maybe the Tank rounded a corner or met the spearhead of advancing Russian probe before it could retreat.
I started with the wheels. Looking over a few photos The wheels are usually quickly replaced by Werkstatt. There are some photos from Normandy and Eastern Front where the Panthers have been .... Shoot to Pieces. They however do show how the Wheel would be damaged in action by 75mm shells
To mimic the real wheel I shaved down the inner wall of the wheel. I used a Dremel tool with a few sanding heading. This allowed the realistic effect, Using Tamiya Thin glue to soften the plastic I used tooth pick to Punch the impact in to the wheel
Fast forwarding a bit We can see the "Damage" Freshly incurred and painted. The Outer wheel and third Wheel(yellow) Interact to blend the damage together.
And a Tease of Part 3
