Befehlswagen Tiger 1

Post by Rob59 »

Finally finished this project.
Added a wash with AK300, slightly thinned, onto the camo parts.
BTW, the Tiger is on 2 wooden blocks, thats why the tracks are not resting on the road wheels.

Hey Rob,

Your perseverance and painstaking work to give each trooper a distinctive look is really paying off. A really great bit of modeling excellence. :clap:

In fact, the AK wash did the job!
Glad I added it onto the camo clothing.
During painting the men, I was not really satisfied how they looked, it was just not what I had in mind. Repainted several of them, but now I am really happy with how they turned out.
Was a lot of work but it was worth it!
Rob.

Hell off a set up you have created Mr 59, and I stand and applaud at the outcome, but even more so for having the consideration to show us all along the way how you did it.
Thats why I love this hobby, and why this Forum/platform is so important to preserve.

2 pics outdoors.
Not the best, but for now they're will do.
Next Fall/Winter I will ad better ones, because that period will suit the soldiers better with their Winter clothing!

Such a well done package Rob, All In!

Figures are great, but where did you source the fuel drum with mounting skid?

That‘s just a homemade construction!
Cut 4 wedges out of some pieces of wood which I glued onto the motordeck.
No rocketscience.
Looks better in my opinion than securing it with a rope or chain.
