Hi Phil,
Your build is looking good, mine has got a long way to go to get to where you are.
A quick question what base colour and make are you using ?
Regards Roger

[phil fitzpatrick]

Thanks Roger
Take your time with your build,most of all enjoy it,even the problem bits
Over my red oxide primer I am using U-Pol filler spray a beige colour,and its good
for helping to cover up som things that you want to and is just right for the Tamiam
TS-3 Dark Yellow spray and it doesn't take much to cover.
I am modelling my King Tiger at about the time that the dark yellow was running out,
might even have been the last few tins
There are loads of postings on the Forum which you may have already discovered,to take
ideas from.
Enjoy your build.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil,

She is really coming along nicely and a nice choice of paint scheme

Paul.

[phil fitzpatrick]

Thanks very much Paul,
I am modelling my King Tiger in Hungary in winter 1944-1945.
My end finish will be a subtle winter cam over the original so you can still
see some showing through.
Cheers
Phil
