Tamiya 35172 - 1/35 Panther Ausf.G Photo-etched Vent and Grille Set  [35172]

High-fidelity Grilles for the Panther Ausf.G

The Tamiya 35172 1/35 German Panther Ausf.G Photo-etched Grille Set supplies delicately cut metal grilles to upgrade the kit. These parts add realistic perforation patterns and sharper edges compared with stock plastic components.

Historical Notes for Accurate Modelling

The Panther family combined protection with mobility, and later Ausf.G production included refinements to ventilation and engine layout. This grille set helps replicate those finer details on a 1/35 display model.

Advantages of Photo-etched Metal Upgrades

Photo-etch is ideal where scale thickness and hole definition matter. On the Panther Ausf.G, metal grilles provide lifelike shadowing and take weathering treatments more naturally than plastic.
