Re: Plastic King Tiger Henschel-->Jagdtiger
ra272, Good morning,
I am really a fan of the flowing organic looking three tone paint jobs on German armor. As the other folks have noted, you really have got it spot on!
regards,
Painless

Re: Plastic King Tiger Henschel-->Jagdtiger
Thank you all for the good comments.

I would like to have less overspray, but it's hard to play with nozzles, dilution, pressure...
If you look closely, it's not that good...

Re: Plastic King Tiger Henschel-->Jagdtiger
Thank you, I have a FR8 in my Taigen Tiger, but it was hard to find room in the metal chassis, I thought in the plastic chassis of this project, it would have been even harder to fit such a big speaker.tao wrote:That is one great build! Not sure if you tried it yet but the FRS-8 speaker really has a deeper sound than the FRS-7 to my ear fits great with such a big tank! (I have it in my KT and Tiger I now)

Re: Plastic King Tiger Henschel-->Jagdtiger
It's always tricky fitting everything..on my KT I took the locking device off and put the battery across the back- also those
zippy thin lipos give a bit extra room. Regardless amazing work done here!!

Re: Plastic King Tiger Henschel-->Jagdtiger
The three color camo is now finished.

I broke the thin tow cable...Heng Long plastic it very cheap. I was wondering if it is possible to adapt a Tamiya cable I had from a previeous King Tiger project, and guess what?
Tamiya and Henglong cables are exactly the same.
Absolutely no difference between the grey Tamiya and the black broken Henglong.

I have painted the tools and the tracks, and I began a light weathering. It's not finished yet, but I took some pictures anyway.
