Just thought I would put a few shots of my latest paint job, re-done my tiger 1 it was in a horrible yellow colour I never really liked so decided to do it in proper colours- dunklegelb, rotbraun and Olive graun, don't know how I lived without an airbrush either! This tank deserved it to as I spent alot of time and money in the internals. Also though a shot of my 3 finished tanks together- panzerIV and V, enjoy!

The airbrushing on the cam is sensational mate, did you use one of them you-beut filter coats on the finished paint ?

Only used a filter on the tiger Herman, it's the first time I have done one, the camo finish looked abit to stark compared to the base coat so I just mix in a 10% dark brown and water it came out better than I thought for such a simple technique and brushing it on, then just shared over the top with the airbrush in Black

Good Morning, Sponge,
Great use of the air brush, Sir! The filter does a great job in adding realism to an already great paint job.
regards,
Painless

Thanks painless and Michael, the filter really does make all the difference! Will have to see how my next project turns out!

I think that would be a great idea, the Tiki is my favourite Tiger 1 scheme what with it been so unique and hardly any history about it.
