Re: Tiger 1 detailed build.
That might send the purest here in overdrive. Frankly. I couldn't be bothered to spend hours researching. Ordering special paint....just all of that. So I used what I had. All Tamiya. XF64 red brown. XF61 Dark Green. XF59. Desert yellow. All airbrushed over a black base. Looks ok to the mk 1 eyeball. Green could be darker. Brown could be redder but eh. Scale effect I'm calling it.

Re: Tiger 1 detailed build.
Im thinking its just the opposite..........
The green is right(tamiya Olive Green is too dark out of the bottle)
The red brown is right- lighter than out of the bottle (or at least thinned enough to be a light shade.
The yellow seems right against the base shades, but being desert yellow not German Dark Yellow, it does seem to lend itself to being a bit chameleon , my PzIV was like that
Top job, and remember any washes will darken the final shade.

Re: Tiger 1 detailed build.
Thanks for the kind words. As the paint settles it's all starting to come together. I'm hoping to get the sand striped finished today.

Re: Tiger 1 detailed build.
If my puny efforts were any good don't you think I would be showing them?
I am still at the early learning stage,
For all that I keep altering the ratio of Flour to the amount of water in the Bucket I still cannot get the wallpaper to stick to the side of the Turret,
Where am I going wrong?
