Winter scheme with some mud.  Lighting may not be great on the images.  Didn't go too crazy with it.

That is great effort. It turned out well.

Yes, I was debating that myself.  I'm adding mud over the weekend and I might do more white wash on the lower hull.

Don't want to take anything away from a fine build, but it's just a little too uniform for my taste. I would have done exactly what you did to it, but not so much on the turret maybe, with some more gray showing through or perhaps a section of more whitewash un-degraded, for contrast's sake. The dirt would definitely break things up more.

Thank you all for the feedback!! 

I am planning to add some mud over the weekend. 

The whitewash was done using vallejo chipping medium sprayed on before I sprayed the white on.  Then used water and a brush to chip away the white.

I'll also post pictures of the finished t34/85 pair I have almost completed.

Thank you,

Matt

LOOKS GREAT! I am working on a mid-production tiger 1 myself, my first tiger. Thanks for the motivation to get back after it. Rudy

Nice build and as was mentioned before, a some dirt or mud on the wheels; considering that its winter; would definitely put this build over the top.

Yeah the whitewash looks pretty darn good. A little dirt or mud as Tojo pointed out wouldn't hurt.

I was thinking about it.  Probably do a little bit of on the wheels and tracks using some pigments.
