The panzer brigades used tried and tested battle group tactics learned on the Eastern Front during 1943 and early 1944. By grouping all of their armoured assets into a single battle group and launching lightning-fast strikes against enemy spearheads they could destroy the attacking force before it could be reinforced. The 106. Panzerbrigade FHH received 36 of the latest production Panther tanks, as well as 11 of the very first production run of Panzer IV/70 tank hunters. Supported by armoured infantry and self propelled anti-aircraft units they were capable of delivering a bloody nose to any American unit in their way.
Designed by Evan Allen, James Brown & Will Jayne.
Painted by James Brown, Blake Coster & Jeremy Painter.

Assembling Panzer VI/70 (V)
|
Step 1. Begin assembly with the tracks.
Note: That the two front road wheels on each track is missing.
|
Evan has designed a new set of reversible road wheels for the Panzer IV series. On one side is the rubber-tyred road wheel and on the reverse side, the steel-rimmed road wheel. The Panzer IV/70 (V) was nose heavy due to the size it's gun and the weight of the frontal armour. This caused the rubber-tyred road wheels to fail, therefore the stronger steel-rimmed version were fitted in the first two positions. |
|
|
|
Below: Attach a set of road wheels to each track. Ensure that to steel-rimmed version are showing as in the example below.
|
Below: The steel-rimmed road wheels attached to both tracks of the Panzer IV/70 (V).
|
|
|
Step 2. Attach the mudguards to the rear of each track as shown in the examples below. |
Below: Both tracks fully assembled with the steel-rimmed road wheels and mudguards. |
|
|
|
Step 3. With the track assembled, its time to attach the tracks to the hull of the Panzer IV/70 (V).
Note: Each track has a lugs on the back that corresponds with the recesses in the hull to aid in correct orientation. |
Below: The lug on the right-hand side track and the corresponding recess in the resin hull.
|
Below: The lug on the left-hand side track and the corresponding recess in the resin hull. |

|
Below: Attaching the left-hand side track. |
|
|
Step 4. Next, attach the main gun to the resin hull.
|
Step 5. Then, attach the loader's hatch as shown in the example below. |
|
|
Step 6. Followed by the commander's hatch.
|
Below: With the hatches in place the basic Panzer IV/70 (V) is assembled and ready to be painted.
|
|
|
Step 1. When attaching the commander's hatch simply angle it slightly towards the rear of the vehicle.
|
Step 2. Next, attach a tank commander in the now open commander's hatch.
|
|
|
Adding The Schürzen
The Schürzen is optional and
can be added or left off to add some modelling variety to the platoon.
As can the stowage sprues included in the box set.
|
Step 1. There is a left and right-hand side plate of Schürzen for the Panzer IV/70 (V). Each side can be distinguished by the small letter L or R located in centre of each piece.
|
Step 2. To attach the Schürzen, place a small amount of hobby glue to the underside of each of the lugs as shown in the example below. |
|
|
Step 3. Centre each of the lugs on the bottom of the Schürzen over the first three wheel bogies. |
Below: With the Schürzen place, the Panzer IV/70 (V) is now fully assembled and ready for painting.
