well as I,m waiting for things to dry ,I have started this one,Academy; 1.35 Tiger 1 early ,


so far a very simple straight forward build,


was hoping to get the primer on the wheels today ,but someone called fuzzy,fond a new stop to sleep,right were I,do spray,:confused::eek:,but don't have the heart to move her,so that can wait, ;)


you can see the difference in size from the Panzer Kampfwagen 11,Ausf.F/G to this one,

He he cats are funny creatures! Mine was a stray - she turned up on my doorstep one day in the pouring rain. She was soaked & crying so I had to let her in. Since then she's decided this kitty hotel is a nice place to stay! :smiling3:

well got some progress done to day, ;)


have the turret together ,


will start the wheels soon,gave them the base coats,


ok this is going to be a problem,I did try the German tank dark yellow,but its far to green or should it be ? :confused:


I gave it a coat of desert yellow over the top which to my eye dose look better with more depth from the darker yellow,


under it,:confused:


any ideas and suggestion for this one,please,?

I'm guessing that's Vallejo tank dark yellow Moni? It looks slightly too green to my eyes, but I've often thought that Vallejo aren't always 100% accurate.


Dunkelgelb was a green-tinged yellow, but as the box art looks like one of the Tunisian Tigers, I'd say a sand yellow would be more appropriate IMHO

thank you,totally agree Patrick,that dark yellow is far to green,if you look at the pic of the turret,were I,over layed the desert yellow over the dark yellow,


looks all right to me,:rolleyes: and did not do the barrel part you can see what I mean,


so would you think thats ok ?


as I,m doing the tri color ,dark green,red brown,and yellow /desert/ 2rd SS Panzer Division ,Kursk,1943
