WOW SB! Great job! Love the fading and streaking. And I wish I could get my tracks to look that good.

Hey Gamera how you doin ? Thanks for lookin at the Jagd . It was a fun build . I'll be hangin around more .
Carl, missed you brother! I'm so glad you returned and....wow! What a sweet build. Love the weathering.
Eric
Yeah Carl, (sorry can't keep everyone's name straight!) good to see you back!
Almost there! I'm redoing the spares, because I was most definitely not happy with them. Got the cables on. Not really happy with them either. Grrr.......
Hey Carl, nice to see ya over in this GB again. The Jagdtiger looks awesome. I watched it come together over at MSC. I'm always impressed with your builds. Painting/weathering is superb.
Not a whole lot done in the last week, but some progress.
Switched up the close defense weapon, really just for the heck of it. Maybe just because I was playing around with the soldering and I thought it looked kinda cool. I fixed the right rear cleaning rod stowage bracket, put together the fire extinguisher and got the side skirts sorted. Once I get the tool clasps on, I think she'll be ready for some paint... finally. Not positive of the scheme yet... Maybe Wiking around Kovel (June 1944)? That might be too similar to the last one though.
Cool Dave, again I love all those little extra detail parts!
Eric , good to be here again . I'll have to get caught up on what been happening here .
Gamera , no prob. I have that same memory thing going on .
Dave , good to see you in both places .
MSC? Hmm, What up with that ?
Cant remember where or who asked it but according to Afrika-Korps the Tiger I could have a dual and tri-color pattern. Not widely used as all tanks whether grau or gelb they all ended up with a dusty gelb color. will have some pics soon of the finished kitty added green to the camo and I am currently making and painting stuff to put on top of the kitty.

tigerman MSC? Hmm, What up with that ? Well , I don't know , just trying out something different Eric .

Reserve, that is an awesome scene of the guys running to the tank. I need more pics my friend.
Hey Thunder , thanks !
Picture a man, sitting at something once called a computer., a contrivance of a time gone by. Light flashes on a screen and images of old and battle scarred machines appear and he sees himself holding one in his hand. At the sign post up ahead... The Twilight Zone.
WOW that's kind of how I felt. been I while since checking in and see that this just rolling along like a ... we...a tank! New completion for the gowning list at the front of the thread. Md, Carl, P-Bro Dave, Reserve .. nice boys... real nice.

OK let's see if this works better today
Hopefully they'll all make it this time. Figures are MiniArt, zimmerit is from Atak, and the trees are from Sterling Models. Camo striping was freehanded with an airbrush, overall pinwash with a diluted mist of dark yellow applied. Some pigment found at the local railroad shop was applied for a light to medium coat of dust, no mud this time. The model itself had some fit/assembly issues but overall went together pretty well. Thanks for lookin

I note I failed to give thanks for the nice comments pardon me please.
Thanks guys
Mark -- no worries, this is a superb job of work! The figures are quite literally telling a story, it's time for this beast to get active! I must do a Tiger I in zim one of these days, and I hope it comes out as good as this. Which kit is it, BTW?
Cheers, M/TB379
It's Cyberhobby's #6650 Tiger 1 Feb. 1944. It was expensive, you might think about a Tammy or Dragon instead as I didn't see what made it worth the asking price. I managed to snag it for 50% off and still paid about 45 bucks for it.
Hey Shawker - I asked a couple of weeks ago regarding DAK colors on Kitty - found numerous b/w photos which show 2 / 3 tone camo - I'm using the Bison Decal set for Early Tigers in N. Africa - using a two tone - photos enclosed below - note second attempt - didn't like the green tone so we re-did .... Armor86

Keep up the good work Dan. I don't envy you doing all those wheels.
Still time to get in on the group build? The Wife got me Dragon's Königstiger "Battle of the Bulge" kit for my birthday. Should be able to get it done in time for the end of the GB.

I haven't checked this GB for a while, so many GB's, so little time. But i am so glad i did now. Mark, that dio is amazing. Stunning work all round.
I am with you on the price of those CH kits, i can't see it either. I know some of them are unusal subjects, such as the Panther i built, but still. Sound like you got a great deal. I paid £70 each for my Panther and Wittmann Tiger.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I am planning on digginbg out the figures for my Pantehr this weekend, so i am hopeing i can wrap up the Diorama for it before the end date. Fingures crossed.
I like that Tiger Dan .

Yes sir, you can still get into the GB. The deadline has been extended. Would love to have that BoB kitty in the GB.
