Glad to hear that from you Soeren. It is every time again nice to see, how other modellers appraise my own model...
Thanks again. :thumbup:

Good afternoon,
Hotte is our Man on Tigers around here, especially with this Beauty. Look up his late Panther G Build sometime for more eye popping authenticity.

In this part it goes as announced about pollution at the lower hull.

Image

All around some dirt splashes,…

Image

Image

…at the rear wall and especially at the rear fenders were a bit more polluted.

Image

This time I would display some dried mud at the road wheels. For that I’ve experimented with a mixture of pigments and linseed oil. pictures…

Image

Image

Image

Image

The side fenders receive also at the upper side some dirt splashes.

Image

Image

Thereafter I’ve worked again at the barrel cleaning rods; they were taped and the metallic ends receive a paint.

Image

Than they look like this one.

Image

The muzzle brake receives also a treatment.

Image

Barrel cleaning rods and tow ropes were for sample at the Tiger mounted,…

Image

Image

…the real completion will be done next time.

Hello Burger_Patrol1,

as I wrote. As first the desired camouflage pattern with acrylic paints. Thereafter a filtering with turpentine oil and little drop oil paints in each base colour. The dirt splashes are made from pigments, linseed oil and turpentine oil. Applied with a brush and my airbrush gun, using only air to blow it against the lower hull. The thick mud splashes are a mixture of pigments and linseed oil, applied with a tooth picker.
Oil paints and linseed oil neeeds more time to dry; this can be shortened in a warm environment.
