Tiger Camouflage (Von Rosen's Scheme)

Post by Allan Shannon »

Hi, Guys

Finally put the base coat onto my tiger 1 and was wondering about the camo scheme. Would the camo pattern continue under the side skirt or did it only follow onto the skirt itself, so if the skirt was removed or damaged it would only show the Dunkelgelb?

Also I plan to do Von Rosen's tiger 1 scheme (Normandy) I have only 2 artist impression of that scheme and both look different if you have any other images I would love to see them? I know that the 503 scheme whilst in Normandy looked very busy indeed!

The 2 images I have is that of Jean Restayn and HQ Paint Mask.

Look forward to your responses.

Regards Allan

It is indeed a late tiger, No 311.

Have you checked the tiff.de forum ?

It's in German but Chrome does a pretty decent job of translating it.

Do a Google or Bing search for Tiger 311 and under images look for late Tigers with the number 311 to see how other modellers painted theirs.
