Re: John's Late Tiger 1
Hi Nick,
Know what you mean. I had a look at some examples but most just show side view. Just go with the flow. I have toned down the wheels with some dirt shade. I will add numbers and markings before doing too much with the hull and turret.
I will send you a link which might give you some ideas.

Re: John's Late Tiger 1
Nick,
The camo colours are deep green XF-26 TAMIYA and red brown XF-64 TAMIYA.
I misted over with GW graveyard earth but very lightly above the mudguards as I want to get some numbers and markings on first.

John,
Your Tiger camo paint looks excellent, first rate! A little weathering and it will be complete. The details are superb! I hope you enjoy the RC fun as well. Best regards,
Bob

Re: John's Late Tiger 1

Re: John's Late Tiger 1
Having a break from the tiger while waiting for some items I need to proceed. Decided to put some paint on a Schwimwagen that been lying around for months half built.

Re: John's Late Tiger 1
The pictures look wonderful John. Looking forward to seeing them for real especially the Tiger. The detailing is great and looks quite different from when I first saw it.

Re: John's Late Tiger 1
Some more detail added. I built the elevation box but found it interfered with the kit mechanism so had to cut it. Also added a seat for the LOADER. Tilts and swivels.
