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

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.
