1/35 Jagdpanzer IV L70: Bringing the Beast to Life

In this video I will be painting and weathering the Jagdpanzer IV L70 (v) 1/35 scale model kit from Dragon. A mashup of an old Panzer IV kit with some newer parts added to make the tank destroyer based on the chassis of the Panzer IV tank. I will plan to transform the Jagdpanzer IV Sd.Kfz.162 into an ambush predator, by adding camouflage net and making some foliage to add for cover. Production of the Jagdpanzer IV started in September 1943 but at the time the L70 gun was being prioritised for the Panther so vehicles were fitted with the L48 gun. Front armour was 80mm thick set at a 45 degree angle. Production with the L70 gun finally started in August 1944 and around 930 were produced up to the end of WW2. Vehicles produced were delivered primarily to the Panzerjager battalions attached to Panzer divisions. The Tank was rather nose heavy and later models would introduce steel road wheels for the front. I hope you enjoy watching me turn this tank destroyer into an Ambush Predator. If you do then please like and subscribe. It really does help Music from Epidemic Sound
