Started looking pretty good by the end, now the rust and exhuast detailing really changed it from the Toy look to a well weathered model. Well Done

Thanks Sax! I tried to make it look as real as possible.

From the way you advanced your weathering and detailing was a excellent technique to me, it was interesting to pick out each new detail as your KV1 Progressed to completion. Now the real test, battle against a German 88.

Like this one?

I would refrain from offering an opinion until I see the complete Tiger, Looks good from this angle. Late model road wheels, yet early headlamps,track bracket(on front) Track holders on turret are mid to late model. But the Division Marker and the Red rider seem to imply a late war Tiger from the SS LEIBSTANDARTE Adolf Hitler. Just a guess, SS Panzers are something I need to learn about, to much time spent on Grossdeutschland Panzer Battalion. Which has the honor of the Highest kill ratio of any Tiger Unit. I was thinking about one like this, but it is still a work in progress. Almost complete so maybe you should wack the KV while I regroup and do some finishing details.

All kidding aside nice looking Tiger,
cheers

nice KV you have done,top job on that detailing love that rusty look

Thanks alot guys. I brought the tiger and KV to a tank battle this weekend and many said it looks alot better in person as the pics made the weathering look a bit overdone, which I think myself. In person it is subtle and looks realistic.
Sax, the tiger was built as a hybrid that had some early and some late parts...call it field repaired LOL. Anyway, the road wheels let me down at the battle. I ended up losing one in the brush and seems these asiatams are simply junk. they will come apart in any terrain, it's just a matter of time. Now I need to find out if the Wecohe wheels will work with the Asiatam lower hull...No repsonse when I emailed them about it...
Here's a link to a video of some of my tanks at the battle day.
