Tiger 1 1331 Kursk, Heng Long\Asiatam\Elmod

Thanks, Got the recoil working but am interested in the mod. Does Dietrich have a post on the mod? I was painting a figure in peadot camo last night. Took photos of each stage of camo and at the end realised I did'nt have a memory card in the camera and had no photos. I will post some pictures of the finished figure in the painting post. Also did some step by step faces but this time have pictures.

Your Tiger looks great! You definitely have a talent with the airbrush if this is your first time. With regards to your troops and crew they are absolutely awesome! The facial detail is so realistic, which figures did you use?

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the comments on tank and figures. The crew figures are from Verlinden. I get them on ebay from seller (3dverlinden), Based in US but gave a great postal price for Europe so give him a try. Has full range of figures at great prices. The tankriders are also from ebay seller,
(resin-kit) basedin China. Offers free postage worldwide on many items. Realy good models ,has a nice range. Check out the 1/16 Kubelwagen in resin at reasonable price. I think it is a copy of the verlinden. This seller also has a website with some other great figures including a very good figure to represent Michael Wittmann. I will post the site name later. It does'nt seem to be working at present so I may contact seller.

I am putting up pictures on another posting on painting figures and will add more this weekend. Post is in Tips and tricks, Painting and weathering,Painting crew and support troops step by step.

Thanks Sparks. Got a video of sound check. Loaded on Utube. Now to get it onto forum. Was trying to get some outdoor video today but had some wheel bearing problems. Kept grinding to halt. Will try again. It does not like grass. Better on dirt.
