Painted a Tiger 1 up for my Buddy

Post by RMD Photography »

So this is the first time I have ever tried painting a tank, He wanted an ambush style camo pattern and some heavy battle damage. Its nowhere near perfect but I think it turned out decent and he is thrilled with it.

This started off as an all tan Taigen.

Then I got ahold of it.

Thanks! I tried to get it as accurate as possible but colored damage photos are kinda hard to come by. Some said go shiny silver, some said darker grey, I tried to get a nice dimensional mix with it.

Submitting photographs of real Tanks with real battle damage and calling it your own build is very bad form sir.

I think I am about to upset someone :haha:
