My first R/C Tiger.

Post by jackeb »

Here's my HL Tiger. My first effort, which I'm quite pleased with, considering I haven't done this sort of modelling for twenty odd years.
I chose a weathered panzer grey to keep things straightforward and, as you can tell by the number, it is not modelled after any particular tank. Forgive the funky headlights. These will be replaced at some point. Further mods planned are: Main gun extension (in the post), upgraded running gear (including 3:1 boxes and adjustable idler), but first has got to be an Elmod electronics upgrade, so I can use my lovely 2.4ghz JR radio. The supplied 'radio' is a bit grim. I've been spoilt by the, relatively, sophisticated electronics in my helis!
Still any comments or criticisms will be appreciated.
Cheers.

Very nice, im working on a Tiger one myself, iv applied zimmerit and have just started spraying it tricolour camo, i have also beaten it up a bit to give it that battle tired look, but enough about me, you have done an excellent job of the weathering, hats off to you. :thumbup:
