In this video I build the Tamiya Panther Ausf. D in 1/35 scale, one of the most famous Second World War German tanks. This scale model tank build covers the assembly and construction of the kit while exploring the features that make the Tamiya 1/35 Panther a favourite among armour modellers and scale modelling enthusiasts.
The Panther Ausf. D, introduced in 1943 during the Second World War, is known for its sloped armour, long-barrelled 75mm KwK 42 gun, and impressive battlefield performance. In this scale model build video, we take a close look at the Tamiya Panther kit, discuss the quality of the moulding and engineering, and begin bringing this legendary WW2 tank model to life.

They keep me going without interruption, so I can stay in the zone and create worry-free!

Thanks for sharing. That's the amazing attribute with Tamiya. Some of their stuff like the '67 Panther Ausf A kit won't necessarily look the best, but their model kits ALWAYS function. You'll spend on them, but you'll have a nice replica afterwards. I can't say that for every toy models company

Complete scale model tank build: from sprues to finished model - step‑by‑step assembly, model painting, realistic weathering techniques, and the inevitable moment I realise I’ve glued something upside down. Classic plastic model kit building in all its glory.
Like this video if you enjoy proper 1/35 scale armour builds - it helps other modellers find the channel, and I shan’t take it amiss if you’re really just here to watch me struggle with glue. Subscribe for more Tamiya model builds, painting guides, and the occasional half‑decent finish!
Question: What’s the one part you always manage to fit upside down or back‑to‑front on a model? Mine’s definitely those tiny vision slots on the turret…
