Starting Dragon Tiger 1 (7251). Just 80+ parts.

Ok, I am calling it done. Tamiya Panther ausf D. Thanks for a great campaign.

Panther looking real nice

Bryan, superb job on that Panther.

If anyone needs more time, let me know if an extension is needed.

My JagdTiger is way behind, I'm afraid I won't make it.

Beautiful work on that Panther Bryan!

My entre,



Nice model but i did find some gaps that needed filling



i made a little base from polystyrene



This is the idea, panther already in base color





more to follow

@Jan - Nice work on that little panther.

I am not very optimistic about finishing my tiger in time, I managed to get all of the ATAK zimmerit on, the only real trouble area was the front of the turret.

I have to bail on the Tiger 1/25 build for this campaign. I thought I posted this pic for my backup build but dont see it. So here it is.

tonight I start the painting process.

oh joy, the best part.

I can't remember if I ever uploaded my initial pic:

Actual work started in February and paint began this month:

Progress update, first primer on and pre-shading.

Been a while since I posted. I actually had to ditch the Panther for this campaign - had to go on work trips so less time on the bench. As there is only a few days left till we finish this campaign, I settled on this tiger. Started a few weeks back but only made it to the painting stage recently. I didn't like the first colors so I repainted wit vallejo RAL 8000

Advances on the 1/16 Tiger,

A compare with the 1/35 one,

More update pics.
@Daniel very nice big scale Tiger I.

Daniel, what a monster! Looking forward to see more.

Lap man, great job on the camouflage! Very cool and late war.

I am making good progress on my Tiger I, but I do not want to rush it. Seems like I am not the only one being behind on my work.

Is it possible to get a months extension on this campaign?

It would make it possible to finish my build - and potentially others - without rushing it.

Here is where I am with my build:

I could be done in a week, but even one more week would be a help. I got slowed down by some stupid graduate school thing this entire spring.

Time to catch up on posting
Priming

Colours



The DG isn't - it's way too yellow for my liking, so it got redone, pictures to follow

Well, I actually have more progress pictures, but will just be posting these latest ones. Repainted the kit in RAL 8000 + 7008 (Vallejo Model Color and Model air). The Tamiya decals went MIA. Used Academy's instead.... big mistake. Did not pay attention and applied them (without cutting the carrier film that much) and sealed with a dull coat. The thing still showed off the carrier film. Resorted to adding successive oil dot filters to hide it. Also dusted the lower side hull. Have yet to do that on the wheels themselves... am split with either A) Applying an overall dust coat on the running gear or B) Applying a more selective dust coat and putting the dust mostly on the panel lines and rivets and crevices.

Any news on this?

decals and weathering next.

Nice job on the camouflage!

Ok, no problem !!!
