Hi! This is my first time building a tiger 1 and using hairspray technique for chipping and oil paints. What do you think of my build?























Base coat of 90% tamiya german grey 10% flat white. I applied oil paint wash of burnt umber to bolts in road wheels then weather of tamiya weathering master mud and snow. I used modelling clay to create the camo pattern i flattened the clay, spray of hairspray by hortaleza over the base coat and dry it for 45min and second coat of hairspray to make sure. Flat white is sprayed all over the model, after 20minutes random scrap using tootbrush. Last wash of burnt sienna to make rust stain in the bolt and weather the exhaust of tamiya rust.

Hi Alvin, welcome

It looks nice

What kit did you use? Tamiya?

Can you post some other better pics?

Cheers

Well, I'm not a panzer expert, my favorite are russian armours, but I'm sure you'll be able to meet here on armorama, someone who could help you better than me

Anyway for winter german crew, look there



Cheers
