I'm cirrently working on a DML 1/35 KIng Tiger with pre-molded zimmerit. I'm thinking I'm going to do it in a winter whitewash camo. Check the armor forum for an update soon!

Doog!!!  

   That is some FANTASTIC work you are doing; so small, but without the comparison photos the *scale* is difficult to eyeball.     Excellent!!!  

   An "eye level" castle photo like the one near the end of your album, with a 'real sky' background and in-sunlight, would be visually deceptive to say the least!    I'm sorry I haven't found this thread until tonight, Doog, but certainly glad I did now and will go through it slowly the next time to see how you did it!     Beautiful work!  

   Thanks!!

Man, that is impressive.  Even though you mentioned the scale earlier on, seeing it in relation to the 1/35 fig and other items really gives perspective and highlights the fine work that you did. 

And Professor Big Brains School Project accessories,....    gotta love it.

You are a Master. Stunning!!

I hardly ever use the adjective... it's soooo OVER USED, but that is freak'n "AWESOME" !

Well done! I luv looking at it. A feast for the eyes!

Just an update, for those of you wondering....

Jenn was blown away by her castle; she loved it immensely!

Here's something funny--she got me a "Neuschwanstein 3-D puzzle" to put together before I gave her the model! LOL! We were definitely on the same wavelength--as we always are! 

Here's her with her present:

awesome stuff, doog...

her great big smile = job well done!

Birthday idea: Build the puzzle, weather it, wrap it up

Really, doog... That castle in her hands, it just looks so god damn real! and finally we got to know it's size real life for real       But really, it is so god damned well done...

) I'll tell Jenn you liked it! She was worried when she cut it--she donated the length to some cancer society.

Still waiting for you to show us you pretty mugshot with the 3-d puzzle.   Don't be shy, the camera won't break.  And by the way we won't laugh (not)......  You lucky devil.  Two masterpieces in one photo op.

doog: Glad to see a photo of your sweetheart holding the gift...the items in the previous pic's for were nice...for scale, but pale in comparison to the look of joy on her face...nicely done, and glad to hear she was thrilled!!!  Actually the castle is bigger than I thought...

I have a cool pic' of a King Tiger...it won the theme award at AMPS EAST, I think it was "Heavy Armor"...it was very well done, thought you might like to see it, I'll shoot you a PM!

Agree with all the above.  Any gift is better when you know the giver spent so much time and effort on it!  And, like everyone else, I'm a bit amazed at the sheer SIZE of the thing!

Good work, good gift, and great smile.

Nice model...and I like what she's holding too...

Thanks, guys; Jenn will appreciate the comments, I'm sure! I appreciate the nice sentiments!

Hope you all have someone like her to hold this New Year's Eve!
