Almost done treated Impact tracks with AK metal burnishing added both mgs , glued ball for mg and made the aerial . Need some masks for turret no etc just thinking about what unit.

Very nice job Mr R42
Some very delicate and well executed detail work, you should be very proud

Really brilliant job. I really like the effects of the burnishing on the tracks. Well done bravo You have done impressive work on this tiger!

Thanks mr73 and mr bix Been a learning curve, well worth it, You learn more from the mistakes you make.

Did not like the hassle of decals on the Zim, made some stencils. Quite like the emblems like the hammer and lightning , thats something to look for and try to make. Would have been better to try the little one first as its a flat surface. Not perfect but on the zim a little overlap and its not a flat surface , next time will use better sticky sheet.

Numbers look great

Thanks all One question is it worthwhile doing a number on the rear of the turret ?
Panther and tiger1 yes but not found a king tiger rear no photo.

Yes, there were KTs with numbers on the rear turret, very unit specific though.
I will get a photo for you, but I feel your particular one represents a unit that would not have done it.

Numbers look excellent, the painted on look has always seemed better to me than decals IMHO.... I paint them on when I can. Brilliant work

Another little upgrade ,the periscopes . The loaders one needs some work paint the rear of the perspex and fill the gap under the guard. Better have look at some walkarounds or photos. Thats 2 sets of scopes sorted another 3 to do when i am in the mood to do more fixes..
