Jag har köpt Waldemar Trojcas Tankpower, där finns samma bild på Panthern.
Där står det att den var en av de få vagnar som hade infraröd utrustning och att den hittades övergiven i Krefeld den 3 mars.

Några mer bilder eller färgprofiler fanns det inte i den boken.

This is featured briefly in Panzertracts 5-3, Panzerkampfwagen "Panther" Ausfuehrung G".
Completed by M.A.N. in January 1945.

Chris Leeman usually puts a lot of research into his models, and he states that he worked from 2 photos. Why not ask him if he could share the other? He is a pretty decent guy. He is on Facebook. I think it is also possible to purchase digital copies of the AFV Modeller magazine from their home page if you want to find out more of this build.
