GuP mods for HL King Tiger: Erika's tank (new pics and vid)

[Estnische]

It will be interesting to see how yo finish the KT. The figures have a finish true to the anime video. Will the tank be the same? I'd imagine if you use traditional weathering, it may clash.

Thanks guys, appreciate the kind words!

Yes, I do intend to follow the show aesthetic and keep the tanks pretty much unweathered. There are some scenes when the tanks get beat up and show some grime/dirt, but generally they stay pretty clean. I think at most I'll do pin washes to pick out detail and maybe some color modulation if the first base coats seem too flat. Trust me, it will be hard to stay disciplined because I love weathering.

Here's the latest video showing off the mods and some of the new sounds I uploaded. There's only one clip of Erika yelling "Ute!" which I have as an option (she doesn't say much other than b!tch!ng a lot), but Maho's commands are way cooler and are featured here. I've got the motion and sounds/music dialed in just about how I want it: it drives pretty scale and the functions all work. The tricky thing is remembering which sound/function goes on which stick, I'm going to need to create a cheat sheet!

Good morning,
The General introduced me to Girls und Panzers a long time ago and I have to admit that I enjoy the way that the show has kept the tanks foremost. The writers have a knack for showing off the power of armor while simultaneously keeping it light-hearted. Your Build has certainly captured the aspects of the Armor and all of the fun as well. Thanks for letting us see it in motion. Next up. a grassy meadow outdoors?
regards,'
Painless

What board did you use for the sounds?

[tankgirlfuzzy]

ElMod, please see first two posts. As far as sounds/voices from the show, I got those from ripping clips of CDs and BDs of the show.

Thanks Jarndice, more to come, things are a little stuck right now as life is making it difficult to concentrate on hobbies right now... But I try to do a little here and there and hopefully will have some progress pics to show soon.
