Hi all,

This is my progress with a Tamiya Sturmtiger I've had for over a year now. Decided to join a group build with friends and finish kits that have been left incomplete.

This is where I left her before starting



Black Primer on



Camo On


Current status






Will be doing a filter and then some washes next. Had to retouch a couple of parts but they stick out like a sore thumb. I hope the weathering will hide the imperfections. Thanks for looking. Would really appreciate any feedback or suggestion.

It looks very nice. I especially like your work on the camo! I guess it is the 1/35th scale? Which tracks did you use? They look like the rubber band type Tamiya puts in the box... If so, you did a very nice job here as well!

Thank you. It's the old 1/35 model from 1989. The tracks are individual links that came with the kit itself.

Even though beating my mind around this kit for a good deal of years I havn't known they put in indy-link tracks here so far Always something to learn! Anyway as I said: Nice work!

Got some further weathering done. Added pigments and streaking. Not sure If I'm done with it - not entirely happy yet. Might do a bit more dust on the superstructure. Would appreciate any suggestions!
