Do you plan to alter the tiger? I am thinking of painting it over to olive brown colour like what i see in COH . Dull gray is really "dull"

mine is Olive brown..hehe
repainted handpainted

Eh bro. Can share some technique , colour schematic and what is needed?

The last time i was involved in painting was like 10 years ago so skills all totally rusted.

Can you upload some pic of your Tiger?

got one pic in few pages back.
color scheme i only google n find which color i like for the tanks.
u use wat to paint? AB or normal brush?

Alamak, last time when kid i use normal brush only . How much you charging to be part time painter?

normal modelling painter brush is ok.
hmm...depends on the color scheme u want.

Roughly le bro? If exp then i better learn again my "Artistic" talent haha

normally around 30-50 for small models.
better paint urself bro...more satisfaction

Aiyo bro, U say paint then i just can straight paint meh? Been ages since i last hold a brush, Your tiger is just solid colour or with camo? Not really clear from your pic

I was thinking of painting it like the Tiger from kursk campaign in center page but i have absolutely no idea how

no camo for mine...only lighter brown with weathered shades,
sumthing like a battle weathered tank
can try painting on cheap toys first bro..hue hue

Do you repaint back the german army cross? Also bro, Does your gun stay up when you make it or does it level down automatically?

no i didnt..i put masking tape on it to prevent from being painted on...very le hard tu paint straight lines..lolol

Tiger 205 from Tiger Ace campaign is it?

Anyway if want to wait (which is IDK til when), surely they will come out with variation on the camo and also production model as Tiger I are divided basically into three production model IRL, namely:
Early "Early Tiger I's are generally identifiable by the tall commander's cupola, rubber-rimmed roadwheels, dual headlights and Feifel air cleaners among other things."
Mid "Mid-production Tiger I's have the second design turret with the smaller cupola but retain the rubber-rimmed roadwheels."
Late "Late Tiger I's are most easily identified by their steel roadwheels...."
Link

BTW all Tiger of CoH are of Early production model, albeit without Feifel air cleaners.

Early production model on this kit with very apparent high cuppola, but variances are single Bosch headlight, absence of Feifel air cleaner, no smoke discharger and threads on side of turret, aside from the obvious colour difference


Same mold with Tiger from 1st issue :/

I'm waiting for the Tiger II

Nope. Keeping it the way it is. Have few plans for the tanks but putting it on hold for a moment.

OT haul from bookfair in PWTC last weekend, but related

300++ pages fully coloured with details of respective major tanks from around the world. At MYR 63.00, I reckon it's a steal

Nice catch bro

Interesting and good reference too

Thanks guys. Sure it has innards of the tank mechanisms and some datas, but bear in mind the inside/info is more towards quick references/light reading, not for detailed analysis of the tank itself.

Haha yeah, Loved that games to bits especially when you can control your tank in last expansion and blast those birts to tiny debris. Now thats what you called a tiger

I even pronounce it as T- Ger instead of malaysian Tiger haha

Did you paint that tiger in your pic?
