Tiger Faces!
It started with a Heng Long Sherman modified with an HVSS suspension. It needed a new look, so I painted it:
Then came the Tongde M24 Chaffee. If I could paint one, I could paint two.
I felt something was missing. Ah, the Pershing!

Re: Tiger Faces!
Ah, the Rice's Red Devils Sherman HVSS is famous from the war in Korea. But I had not see the Chaffees before. That's quite a tri-tiger terror, Bob. They must get a lot of attention and hoots of appreciation.
Re: Tiger Faces!
One actual photo of the Chaffee and numerous model representations!
Of course regarding the Pershing, it's popular in museums and models. Many variations, as they were ad hoc.

Re: Tiger Faces!
I remember reading about these during the Korean war a looooooong time ago. Correct me if I'm wrong but were they painted this way partially for moral and also to scare the Koreans? They look great Bob.
