Hi Dave,
This is not ment to be critical(disclaimer)
Cool! Colors look spot on. My only comment would be on the hull side. The front,rear and top deck have a nice "irregular" pattern where as the side is sorta "striped"(shape sizes are the same size and vertical) just my 2 cents
That being said, maybe you are representing a photo of 009. I don't have my "Tigers on the western front" book to look at right now. If so, disregard my first comment above.
Looks awesome overall! Can't wait till its slightly weathered.
Best regards
Tim

Hi Dave , I am no expert, but your paint job looks fantastic to me. Infact I have been using your photos in the gallery as reference for my build (hope you don't mind). The way I see it ,is that the person who painted/sprayed the real Tiger in the workshop was an individual and had his own ideas of what his tank should look like and this should apply to the models. If you had been that individual back then,then your real Tiger would have the camo that is on your model. It sounded good in my head. I'll never make it as a philosopher!
By the way,what did you use on the deck to give that texture. Was it Mr Surface?
Keep up the good work and keep you gallery updated,
Cheers
Lionel

Dave,
I think it looks good. When its all together and running around it will look superb.
