For the Wife. Tamiya Tiger 1
Hi all, here we have my latest. Tiger 1 (another one lol) from Tamiya, and a joy to build. This one was built under orders from the wife, so fitted it with PE zimmerit from Eduard. When i finished putting all the zim on i flowed very thin super glue all over the PE to give it a more scale appearance, i'm glad it worked and you can still see it. Sorry Ron (spanner570) it was painted with the airbrush, i did however tried using oils for dry brushing and i'm more then happy with the results. I can't say much more about it but the wife loves it and it's now in pride of place where some of her stuff was.
Have fun, John

Thats a top tiger John! You've done a good job on the zimmerit as often think the PE stuff is a bit false looking.
I like your chipping too, overall a great result!

Thanks everyone, i'm still gobsmacked Wendy wanted me to build this for her. It has got me wondering what i could get away though, but i think the 1/32 He219 that Steve (Stona) posted would be pushing it lol.
Ron mate going to give Santa Pod a miss this year, plus i'm saving up for a new car so the money would be better spent on that.
Ian (papa 695), she wasn't bothered about a diorama so i got out of it lol. I've just seen her looking in my stash, i don't know if i should be worried.
Thanks again. 
Have fun, John

It's brilliant, especially tracks and painting work with damages on the surface. I'm impressed. Regards Bart

Thanks Bart, at one time i would run the other way at the sight of individual track links. But now i find it very therapeutic, it's that or i'm sad lol.
Have fun, John
