It's a nice KT, although the colour is a bit monotone. Kinda blends in too much for me.

Also the tarp over the mantlet - how does the gunner see the enemy!

Model built decades ago not as knowledgeable then as am now please forgive oversite P.S. never saw many brightly colored tanks maybe because they didn't survive log.

Put simply, most King Tigers were painted in the factory with ' ambush ' camouflage. As this one has no zimmeritt, it would be in the correct timeframe for this.

Whilst not ' brightly painted ' by any means, they were certainly multi-coloured, hence the reason for my comment.

If you look closely the multi colored camo is there under netting and weathering.

Very nice Tiger.

Grumpa, I didn't write that you were, I just suggested you might like to introduce yourself to us....and thanks for doing so.
