Hi all this is the Tamiya Elefant which has been a really pleasant build, I've built it straight out of the box and added a few minor improvements. Its the first time I have ever done zimmerit and it looks to have gone well (its been the ruin of a few kits in the past!). I have gone for minimal weathering as I don't think this tank lasted that long. Any comments welcome

That's beautiful. I've been wanting to build one of these.

Really nice Elefant. The zimmerit looks great and kudos for putting it around all those bolts.

The Zim looks great. What did you use to make it?

Thanks

Looks great!

realy looks great, very nice camo paint job.

Very nice build.

Thanks for the comments, I plan on using the figures so will post a pic when they're done




I used Revell plasto putty which can be very sticky, I thinned it with Tamiya cement and that gave me a little more time but I had to work in small sections, it tended to go off in about 5mins. Pattern was made with a small screw driver.

As I mentioned here are the figures finished finally, really gives a sense of scale to this beast!

That looks superb. The zimmerit is really effective and is some of the best I've seen in a long time as it actually looks like part of the vehicle. Cracking job mate.

I'll second that. Well done sir.

excellent work.

Great job! I have this in my stash.

Your figures add some great details! I doubt my figures will ever look that great.

That's beautiful

Thanks for the kind comments, I really appreciate it.
