Hello friends of model making, :D

nothing has happened here for a long time, but it's still alive. :haha:

The Tiger was one of the models I was able to save in the night of the flood.
Unfortunately I lost the remote control and some electrical parts. :problem:

Alex, a good friend helped me out with paint and material, I had lost almost everything in the night of the flood or was no longer usable.

The base color has been applied and I can now start with subtle brightening and pigments.

Afterwards I will add a commander, which I bought from AfV-modeller - very good quality.

Here are a few more photos so you can see how it's progressing.....

I like the spare wheel on the rear deck - nice touch!

Hello friends of model making,

first of all, I wish everyone a healthy and successful 2024. :thumbup:

The work is not finished yet, but I would like to keep you up to date.
To explain, the tank turret is only laid on for easier painting.

As soon as I am satisfied I will take a few photos in daylight, the light in the cellar is not ideal for good photos. :crazy:


with kind regards,Guido :wave:

OOOH! The brackets and tie-downs for the tools and cables are scrumptuous. And the weld cuts on the armor are amazing. And there is so much more to applaud! :clap: :clap: :clap:

He certainly does have some tasty Tiger treats that I'm digesting.

Good evening,

the first step of the crew is done, I had found a nice figure from "scale fanatics".

It's a good thing I hadn't attached the commander's cupola yet, so the Oberleutnant could take his seat.

I quickly realised that I hadn't painted a figure for a long time, maybe I should do some more detail painting. :crazy:
