Just to show I do paint German stuff also (I've posted a lot of Brit AFVs recently) heres some Milicast wargaming Tigers. 1 mid-late and 3 late production versions.

Stock except I hacked about with the track guards to give em some individuality. Detail is a but soft where i created some track out of the solid resin but it'll do for the table. The other thing I could have done would have been to change the two holes for the binocular gunners sight on the late versions to the correct single monocular sighting hole ..... details details details ......

cheers
Brent

Hi Guys,

The scale is 1:76th from Milicast. They make a range of resin kits mainly aimed at wargamers (these are from the Battlefield range and have one piece hull / track castings) although they do also have some full kits.

A link for those that aren't familiar with them

Hi Brent
Very nice work! It's almost a shame "playing" with - it's art! Keep up the good work.
Best regards
Jacob

Superb builds!

I cast my eye over Milicast's range, inspired by your builds and will be buying a few kits of choice from them shortly.

Cheers
