Brickmania has released two new digital instruction sets for sale on their website. The digital instruction sets they have added this week are the M18 Hellcat Tank Destroyer (designed by Daniel Siskind) and the Panther – Panzerkampfwagen V Ausf D (designed by Daniel Siskind). Both of these models look great, but my personal favorite is the Panther tank.

According to the Wikipedia page for this tank the Panther is a German medium tank that was used during World War II on the Eastern and Western fronts from the middle of 1943 to the end of the war in May 1945 . Apparently the “Panther was intended to counter the Soviet T-34 medium tank and to replace the Panzer III and Panzer IV” and was “considered one of the best tanks of World War II for its excellent firepower, protection and mobility although its reliability in early times was less impressive”. One of the first details that really jumps out for me with this model is the great camouflage coloring they have achieved with aid of sticker pack that you can purchase separately from the model instructions (tap here to view it in the Brickmania store). Other great details that stand out on the model are the great looking main gun and turret, the track base, and the overall proportions the designer has managed to achieve which all add up to a really accurate and great looking model!

If you don’t already have these awesome models in your collection it is definitely worth checking them out! In addition to the instructions there are also sticker packs and special parts (BrickArms and otherwise) available for purchase so you can complete these models in all of their glory.
