I really like the authenticity of the primer,
It is almost universal in our niche of scale model building whereas such devotion to detail is quite uncommon in aeromodelling where the prototype base colour is almost always lemon yellow due to the use of etching primer but this same lemon yellow is almost never seen in the scaled down builds.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

Good Afternoon!
The Tiger is coming along super nicely! The lil' Chibi-Tanks are fun. ;0) They are starting pop up everywhere along with ships and aircraft in the same vein.
regards and following along,
Painless
