Smile Thanks friends!

regarding the interiors, I have read in Achtung Panzer this: "Vehicles produced from September/October of 1944, left the factory with complete or partial camouflage paint schemes (brown, green and yellow) with red oxide primer base showing.  Eventually, from December of 1944, the interiors of the tanks were no longer painted and remained in primer or were painted dark yellow. " ( Tiger II, interiors )

Regards!
Rodolfo

Hey Rodolfo,

A lovely build that tickles my taste buds!

A big Kitty with sensible weathering. I know the barrel and the interior colour has been covered so I won't mention that but I really like it.

Great job all round - the cammo and dried mud effect is something special Yes

Just a small addition, the interior colour was generally a ivory/cream colour. Looking at your rear hatch I'm not sure it would get that dirty/rusty

Other than that I like the build and great camo colours

Smile Thanks for your kind comments and obvservations friends!.   Yes, Super Angry it was a mistake, in the year 2009 I had a wrong concept about the main gun, now all is different and I have taken the correct way Big Smile.

Regarding the the exhaust Pipes they were applied Mr. Surfacer 1000 of Gunze Sangyo in order to give texture and 3 different rust tones of pigments MIG. 1).- Light Rust 2).- Santdard Rust y 3) Old Rust.

Have to agree with Constructor on the black. I too found this out the hard way.

On the other hand, sweet camo and build. I especially like the effects on the mufflers. Could you please share your technique?

i like the way you did the camouflage I just find the 88 has too much black on the muzzle end. It does not get that black even under heavy use.
