From whence I came...

A tale of two Taigen Tigers-
The darker tank is my first RC tank and the first one I tried my hand at altering the finish and weathering in 2023. The Lighter colored tank is the unmolested stock finish out of the box that recently joined Kampfgruppe Brunner. Both will be repainted some time soon. The darker one had several coats of green paint filter applied to mute the purple hue to a more appropriate gray. Then lots of use of AK Streaking Grime as it was all the rage to me back then. And of course heavy handidly applied pigments.
Fun to see the difference in finish and a little impromptu flashback comparison.
