Hi Alex,
I'm afraid there are no pictures yet; I've got the wheels painted and the hull and turret are in the primer. Next stop will be pre-shading...
During the build I was also working on the diorama for the kit
(see WIP Building a french farmhouse ) so the build takes a while longer. I will be posting some pics soon.
Good luck with the Tiger!
Martin

I decided to go with a raw umber filter/wash, I spread it liberally through out the beast and that brings us to now.

Looking good to me. But, wouldn't the markings on the turret fall off with the coat of zimmer fell off? Instead of having the last number of the turret number in the damaged zimmerit part, it shouldn't be there?
I dont know, I'm not an expert at all. Unless, it was painted afterwards?
