Again, cant seem to select discussion group in the dropdown list.

Anyway, here's my 2nd entry to this campaign, DML tiger1 (late)

This kit disappointed me, the position and fit of the idler wheel is totally out and wrong, the brass provided for the exhaust guard(or whatever they're called) doesnt fit properly in to the back.

Here it is

No comments guys?

Small scale kits never seem to be as accurate as their larger cousins! It looks like a Tiger to me, and you've made a pretty good job of it. Was the Zimmerit moulded in with the kit or did you add that?

I have Tiger 1 from Revell, having problems putting the lower hull together. The lower hull warped ... headache.

Mind my comments but I feel a bit of wash and drybrushing will bring out the small details especially nuts on the wheels.

Nice work though; I like your Tiger.

Hi guys, thanks for the comments.

The zimmerit was moulded onto the kit. Nowadays, 1/72 is getting better and better, give it a try

Danny, nice job of Wittmann’s last command.

1/72 scale armour has come a long way, in both quality and quantity, in the last four years. That said each release from the major companies is an improvement in quality on the last, let’s hope this trend continues!

Very nice, I like the look of it. I'm doing the Hasegawa Tiger (early I believe it is) and it does have some issues too but the fit's not too bad and I think it'll look decent.

Thanks guys for the comments.

Maurice, I'm sure your Tiger would look great! Keep us posted.

Nice work you made Danny, is the tiger 1:76,
Good job

I like the paint job. One thing IMHO, some silver highlighting on the tracks in the areas of metal/metal, metal/ground. I did one of these years ago and they're not easy. Good job!

HI guys, thanks for the comments.

Eric, the model is 1/72 scale. It is for the miniature magic campaign.

Art, until now i do not know how to highlight the 'top' tracks with metallic. Is it by drybrushing?

Yep, dry brushing is one way. What I usually use, and I don't know if it's available by you, is something called Rub-N-Buff. It comes in small tubes in a variety of colors and is used for antiquing wood, You can find it in a craft store. Just put a tiny bit on your finger and rub it over the high spots on the tracks, and anywhere else that metal contacts metal/ground. It gives a nice worn metal look without being overly shiny. Hope this helps.

Thanks Art,

I'll go check it out then.
