Hi guys,
it's been a while..
too busy with life finally got the chance to build something that i always wanted to do...actually i'm bored with the normal cammo... so one day as i sit alone, i got this idea to paint the tiger tank to looks the malayan tiger (panthera tigris tigirs) while trying to maintain the cartoon-ish look
so here are the photos (trying the new photo hosting also)

This does remind me of a model(I just heard this I did not see it) of a crazy Panther.It was painted pink and had the Pink Panther as it's commander.

All I can say is AWESOME!!!! I love how you painted the tank. It kind of reminds me, of the painting on the airplanes during the Tiger meets.
