Mike, really nice job on that Tiger II. The camouflage looks very nice and looks exactly like the adversary scheme.
Very nice Gepard, Ed. Nice work on the crew as well.

Rick you must put your url between the [img] tag .
Small update, my Sturm tiger had the tools attached, finished the camo paint, and I started some basic washing, first part with a brown/black mix and the day after a brown/khaki mix.
The tracks were painted with a matt black 1 st coat, and then washed with the previous mixes, and also a rusted mix.
Still a lot to do, pics soon.

Does anyone have a link with Modern West German tanker uniforms? Need some ideas to spruce up my Leopard. As soon as the photo gallery is up I will be able to show what I am up to.

I just got done adding the party foil to my drivers hatch on my Leopard and that stuff is awesome. It just makes the model pop! Does anyone have any idea when the photo gallery will be up and running so that I may share my enthusiasm. Besides, I am almost done. FINALLY!!

Here you guys go. Like or hate hit. This was a new endeavor for me as far as the striping. All freehand. Of course totally fictional.

I was able to add alot of detail since this photo was taken. I was able to add pigments and netting as well as the different shading of the windows.

Ye Cats!! A headless tanker!!
I said in an earlier post that the color was Tamiya's Mustard Yellow. It is Tamiya but the color is Dark Yellow. Testors makes the other brand, don't know what I was thinking
Mg is stock mount with a ammo can add on

The basket material is the wrong type, helps to double check the box to make sure there are two sheets of material.

There is still alot to be done. I have been able to add pioneer tools, netting, antennas (in the works) tank crew, markings as well as dusting (pigments). I think then it will be done once everything is finalized. Like I said, all fictional. The Tank isn't but the camo pattern is, I am sure everyone figured that out. Give me some input and maybe some more ideas.

So in the last 72 hours I was able to accomplish alot. I used pastels on the lower hull and added the pioneer tools and some extras. I was also able to add the multicolored foil which made a huge difference in the appearence for the optics and periscopes. I also completed one tank crewmember with desert Flektarn camo. Comments are always welcome.

You can see a difference in appearence with pastels vs. no pastels for weathering. I like my tanks to look like they have been out in the field.



camo on the crew member

Netting to soon be added and to keep everyone up to date

If you notice the splattering on the rear portion of the turret the airbrush didn't explode. That is just my interpatation of oil or fuel being spilled during some routine maintenance.
