Some new photos! Sorry for the color temperature. I've a new camera, and I still don't understand some functions...
I hope you like it!

Well lets start with the markings in the kit. What does it come with? You are right though, there are not a lot of Ds that had that combo of features so you might be limited. I believe Panzer Lehr may have had a few at Normandy but not sure.

Thanks all for the comments!

Schlichtr , thanks for your interest!!

The kit only contains decals for two "Unidentified Units" the "232" and the "425" panthers.
I have some good photos of the 232, is necessary to make some modifications on the turret and I've ruled out.
I haven't photos of the 425 but I have photos of one phanter which corresponds to the characteristics of mine, appears abandoned with only two numbers on the turret "16".
I have proof of one more, one unidentified panther of the "Pz.Rgt 24" in France 1944.
I don't know more...

Anyway, here are some new photos!

Thanks!

Most Ds had no zimmerit. In fact Ausf. A production was underway when zimmerit application became mandatory. Most D with zim got it during rebuilds or in the field. A very few first production As also had no zim.
