discussion 1/16 KNOCKOUT TIGER

[eddiesolo]

I wanted a knockout Tiger to go on the battlefield with the other RC tanks. It also will house the sound system for background battle sounds.


So, with spares I had I started to make a knockout and stripped out Tiger.


Awaiting a turret and that will then be worked on.


So, this is the work so far, still only able to do a little each day but getting there, still more to do.

Some more work on the Tiger. 


I am still waiting for the turret and some tracks to arrive then I can set too on them.


I added some more rust, the front spare tracks and weathered them. Added some more smoke pigment to the inside grille work.
