Hi all,

This time I'll work on a Tiger 1 with a winter camo, just few modification will be done on it like a proper gun tube, tools, trunk etc.

The idea is to get it a nice worn and used look like on the Eastern front.

This is how the tank looks like when I get it.

Hi, If you go to "Heng Long Builds" and click on Sub Page three you will find Herman's "White Tiger Build",
There is a lot of very useful information to be found especially on the Painting and weathering. By the way I assume you have moved the Cupola since you first got it,?
I only ask because the photograph shows it at "Ten to Ten" when it should be at Twenty to Eight"

Hi Shaun,

Yes the cupola will be moved on the right place.

Regarding the painting and weathering, I think I can handle it but thank you in anyway it is always useful to get more info.

Just before Christmas I had some spare time so can work a little bit on the Tiger.

Here I start the white camo, some chips first to let appears the original camo underneath:

Looks excellent very interested in this as I have several tiger 1 projects on the go and one will definitely be
winterised

regards john

Hi,really like the winter tiger,always nice to see something different ,gives me incentive to try it. Regards

After New Year"s break, time to be back on work on the ''White Tiger''

Chipping on the turret continues:

Nice job on the on the winter camo....Looking Good What method are you using for the weathering of the winter camo?

Alfa this looks just excellent! I've never attempted this finish so I too am very interested in your chipping techniques
