Dragon Henschel King Tiger in Progress..
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, June 12, 2004 12:52 AM
Here are some updated pics of the Tiger II in progress.. I have the decals on, and have added the wash to the roadwheels. I still have to add the second future coat over the decals and wash/weather the tank.. I included the link if the first and third pics don't work.. Thanks for looking!!

Looking really nice! Did the Dragon kit come with a basic turret interior like Tamiya's?

Sorry I haven't replied before this, I just got back from vacation....

Tigerman, This kit was really fun to build.. I have only two points that I didn't care for.. One was the indy track links.. I replaced them with Friulmodel ones.... And the instructions are actual photos of the model in the assembly process, so some of the details are vague... I would recommend building a Tamiya version first to see how things go together, but this kit does have better detail than the Tamiya kit.

Phroosh, The ONLY interior detail is the gun carriage, there aren't any stowage racks for shells or anything else, so an aftermarket interior kit is probably advisable if that is important to you..

Geeze, did you use the kit treads? I have DML's porshe turret and I'm halted in the build because of the treads. If you did use the kit treads, I hold you in the highest honor!Thumbs Up [tup]Thumbs Up [tup]Thumbs Up [tup] Nice, just needs a little weathering and a lot of mud and it will look awsome!

ArmorMaster,
I used Friulmodel Metal track links.. The kits plastic indy links need way too much cleanup to get them together and I love the Friul tracks because they naturally sag..Big Smile [:D]

Claymore,

I used Tamiya Red Brown and Olive Green acrylics.. I typically use Dark Green, but there seems to be some discrepency as to either Dark or Olive, so this time I used olive which turned out really well..
