Early K&C Diorama (1 Viewer)

Here is the 1/35 scale Verlinden building Andy mentioned done by Ian Hill. Andy did a good job for it being scratch built of paper mache and also being his first diorama.

If you look carefully in the photo, through the archway, just to the right of the hanging French flag, you can see what I believe is one of the really early wood Panthers, #711.

Here's a link to Bill Sager's website, where you can see a photograph of this very Panther (#711) in K&C's winter 1993 Flyer:

The neat thing about these very early tanks is they were individually hand decorated by Andy and Gordon Neilson. Each had different numbers, so this must be the same tank in both photographs (one taken in 1993, the other in 1996). I wonder if Andy still has it?
