Holla,

Here I am with my first update of my Tiger II and my first dio attempt. It all happens in the Bulge. So there will be snow and mud. this is just the base.

Is your Tiger going to stick out this much outside of the base once the dio is completed? I think that would look kind of odd.

wesley ,

ziet er op het eerste gezicht mooi uit......

Maar laat je tank niet zover over de rand steken hou je model binnen de kaders van je dio .Want als je hem zo uitstekend aanbied op een wedstrijd gaat dat je zeker kostbare punten kosten..........en dat zou zonde zijn.
Ik zie ook dat je struiken hebt geplaast komen er nog bladeren op ? En bedek je ondergrond onder de struiken met dood blad ( versnipperde droge echte bladeren en gedroogde thee blaadjes uit de zakjes )

succes

Eric

The first picture that was taken, was a bad one. He's actually on the base like in picture 3. I had taken that one and I realised the tiger wasn't placed well

Eric,
zoals ik hieronder al zei, was het een verkeerd genomen foto. Zag te laat dat de tank erover stond. Is allemaal verbeterd nu De bosjes ga ik zo laten. Maybe een paar blaadjes op, maar niet te veel. Het is trouwens winter eh En onder de struikjes kan ik wel wat verdorde blaadjes leggen. En een klein laagje sneeuw. Niet te veel. Op de originele foto lag er ook maar een halve cm -cm sneeuw. Dus nie echt veel eh

I make snow with baby powder. The technique like Faust told me! A golden rule!

It makes a real fine coat where the powder sticks to it. Not too much powder. So you can have a fine coat of snow. And then u seal the coat of snow with another light coat of hairspray. And so on and so on...
