Anyone do Panzer IV with zimmerit?

[peterh]

Just wondering about this since I did an internet search and came up empty - thanks for any information!

Model Collect have had one listed as 'forthcoming' for a while, the box art shows zim but if and when it comes out no telling whether it will have it.
Been trying to persuade PSC to do one a combined H/J kit with zim even done some concept drawings for them but so far to no avail. If your on Facebook, where theres the best imput effect, send em a nagg lol

FWIW, I have the PART zimmerit 7.62 mentions above for a pile of Revell Pz IV Hs and Js that went on very well. I just have the undamaged stuff. I haven’t painted them though. If you want pictures, let me know.

What is the PART set composed of? Replacement parts, or is the Zimmerit something you add onto the Revell parts like a sticker or something?

It's photoetch stuff you glue over the existing plastic, yes. Though I've been planning on just using actually hanging the hull skirts sections without using the Revell skirt, the idea being the bits and pieces will fall off during the game.

Models with side skirts are always a great big PITA to handle in a game.

Not sure if this is an official photo or not, the stuff looks better than the image.
