what a really nice looking Tiger, I love the rust and weathering. I also think the detail on the original is excellent, very well done. I look forward to your next model.

Martin.

The colours & materials used in my mid-production Tiger are as follows:

HUMBROL enamel (for sooty areas]
Artists Oil colours in tubes [ black & brown]
MIG production dark & other washers + FILTERS
Powder pigments
