Hey everyone. I'm posting my recent pics of the RFM TIGER 1 Initial Production, Leningrad 1943. The RFM kit is just excellent! I think maybe RFM makes some of the best kits on the market today. So clean and crisp with excellent attention to detail. Granted I didn't use the included markings for the kit, but instead kinda created my own version of the kit with inspiration from the Dragon kit for this same model. I painted with Tamiya as usual. Some subtle hairspray chipping and then used lots of oils and Mr Hobby weathering products which are just awesome. Overall I am happy with how it came out. Such a cool paint scheme. I hope you enjoy it and please comment, criticize and share you thoughts. If you have questions, please let me know. Cheers, G Thanks for looking! I HIGHLY recommend this kit. Seriously, just get it you Tiger addict.

Hey all, just a general question. I have got the Tamiya Tiger 1 Initial Production kit, it has Afrika on the box and is shown as a Desert vehicle, was there any noticeable difference between the productions except for the commander's cupola. I want to know as I am going to put the vehicle in a diorama and Desert dioramas seem a little bland to me. I also have a question in regards to the uniforms, did the uniform have any different look between the desert and other areas, other than the change in colour. Thanks in advance for any answers Kind Regards Brandon

Not really a construction wip more of a weathering and painting experiment, the ferdinand is an absolutely great kit by zvezda, pretty recent, and for £27.00 with link and length tracks it a total joy to construct, i built this over 3 nights complete oob , including kit tracks, and then primed , this was built as more of a paint mule so i could try out some chipping methods, no hairspray, all with a paint brush and sponge, old school, Also i need to learn to weather tracks, my sherman calliope ones in the gb are terrible, and a right let down, so i cobbled the ferdinand together to copy, learn, some techniques, the tiger initial, which I'll be building as tiger 100 from the battle of leningrad, this tiger apparently was captured intact by the soviets, this will be painted in a winter camo and I'll post the progress of this, I've got some pe coming for this from hk, theres a few bits that need to be re done , and I'll need some tracks which I'm hoping to pick up from cosford tomorrow, along with some mud and dirt effects for both kits, I'm thinking fruils for the tiger, comments on the ferdinand good and bad are sought, and appreciated, cheers Glynn
