Nicely weathered for svinehundens competition.. not overdone.. just right!! Like a good meal.. yum!!

Kit Rating: 10 / 10 (can't really fault it in any way!)

Decal Rating: 8 / 10 (Good register, and went on very well.. there just wasn'tt enough of them to make the tank interesting!)

  • Very nice model! I like how you didn't over do the weathering, but its still very used looking!

  • @SwissCheese707 Weathering is an art, which I'm yet to master.. but I believe in 'less is more'!! Also, it is more weathered than shows up on the photos, actually.. my light is not brilliant, where I take my photos! Had hoped to take my B-17 outside today for some daylight photography, but the rain has put a stop to that.. :P Still, at least the Tiger is doing well, started the pre-assembly painting yesterday and have glued the turret already.. :) I don't build inthe right 'order', always.. :)

  • @BasicModelling Ya, I agree. I build first what I see fit to, and cross out the step that I did, to avoid confusion.

  • @SwissCheese707 Good method.. as used by the best... and me! :)

  • Wich size of a tank is good? i have a 1/72 but i think its to small for me and its really enoying with small parts. I want a big tank but not to big. plz help me!!

  • @dragonfire970 Tamiya has a good range ot tanks and vehicles in 1/48..they're bigger than 1/72 but not as big as 1/35.. :) :) Give it a try.. :)

  • You should hollow out the rocket tubes (if they arent already), then put in a simple 'match' rocket made by wrapping the head of a match in aluminium foil. then light it from the back and BAM! watch it fly in the night sky!

  • @2002And Far better than the Katiusha... :)
