Description
The Jagdpanther (German: "hunting panther") was a tank destroyer built by Nazi Germany during World War II based on the chassis of the Panther tank. It entered service late in the war (1944) and saw service on the Eastern and Western Fronts. The Jagdpanther combined the very powerful 8.8 cm KwK 43 cannon of the Tiger II and the characteristically excellent armor and suspension of the Panther chassis,[1] although it suffered from the general poor state of German ordnance production, maintenance and training in the later part of the war, which resulted in small production numbers, shortage in spare parts and poor crew readiness

I think you have a unique ability to transport the viewer to other places and times beyond the present through your imagery. Granted my point of view may be due to my own imagination entering into it. But it's like your paintings are a portal into the past. I have noticed this from the beginning. Another wonderful treatment of this subject L/t

These tank art pieces have a great style all your own, John.

Thanks Douglas, they're actually quite fun to create. The hardest part is finding a decent image in the PD, which is difficult considering the tech from the period.
