Detailed Engine Grilles for Authentic Panther Builds

The Tamiya 12666 Etching Parts Grille Set is created specifically for the 1/35 scale German Panther Ausf.D model kit (Item 35345). These finely etched parts reproduce the protective mesh fitted over the real vehicle's engine grilles, keeping the appearance true to the period. The set is aimed at hobbyists wanting to boost scale realism on their Panther projects.

Made with accurate etching and clean edges, the grille panels add subtle texture and fidelity to the model. They suit builders comfortable with delicate metalwork and folding, and they noticeably improve the finished look on a display model.

How difficult is it to fit the Tamiya 12666 grilles?

Fitting requires cutting, folding and careful gluing of small etched parts; it is best suited to modelers with experience handling photo-etched brass and using fine tools like tweezers and folding pliers.

Can I weather these etched grilles?

Yes, etched brass takes washes and light rust effects well after priming; apply paint and weathering carefully to keep the fine mesh detail visible.
