discussion Farewell Comrades; From Monicas king tiger GB

[monica]

calling this one,
Lebt wohl, Genossen; Farewell Comrades
I have enjoyed this build,never done,zimmerlit on a tank before,and did enjoy doing it,
the Tamiya,kit was a dream to go together like most,so no build,or instruction problems,
unlike a dragon,build,need to be a rocket scientist,to read,
the reason I left the guards off is,I real like how the tracks sit,so I wonted that shown,
and with there camo,being mix match,ding all in white,just did not suit my mood when painting them,

think the little scene say all,about whats going on,

well hope you like this one,

What a little beauty, I really like this, nice weathering on the tiger and your figures look great.

Superb finish Moni. As always your diorama really brings the kit to life. Very effective.

I meant the Tiger! Can't see the other one - sorry. The picture's too small.

That turned out very well Moni. The Tamiya zimmerit was better than I expected tbh & I'm glad you kept the rusty look to a minimum! you know what I'm talking about!

One point I'd like to raise though. Obviously it's the builders prerogative to place the finished model on a base if they so desire. But as it's a single type GB, I'd have liked to have seen more pictures of the tank itself. Don't worry if it's now glued to the base, I wouldn't want you to risk damaging it.

keep it more as a dirt,mud wash,not rust,a little were it would be,I think,
but real pleased that you like this one,

[monica]

as you can see some,bits well,and ,oh what,I forgot to put the anteater on as well oh boo,
but did add the wire going to the light,so that's a plus,
