mylo66 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Finished back in the spring (hence the daffodils in the background 😉) Not sure if this type of camo pattern/Zimmerit and crew uniform are historically accurate but they were all things i wanted to try out. The Zimmerit was Tamiyas self adhesive set which i could have spent more time on and made a neater job of. Paints were from MIG Ammo a set called 1939-44 German standard colours. I`m certainly no expert when it comes to figure painting but I wanted to have a go at painting the dotty type camo uniform (name anyone?) The figures came from a set from Hobby Boss which i can highly recommend. Tank camo pattern courtesy of my imagination. 21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanC Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 The 'dotty type camo uniform' is, I think, called 'erbsenmuster' or pea dot pattern. There's actually a Wikipedia article on it. Nice Tiger! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 The faces of the figures are really good. Especially the eyes. Well done. The tank ain't too shabby either. Good all round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylo66 Posted July 26, 2021 Author Share Posted July 26, 2021 Hi Bertie, very kind comments thanks. I'm certainly no modeling expert (an 18inch view distance is ideal 😉 ) but I do love the hobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Looks good, nice work on the figures. I've not seen any Trumpeter figures before, they look better than I was expecting. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylo66 Posted July 29, 2021 Author Share Posted July 29, 2021 Yes the figures were nicely moulded although no decals for badges etc so get yer smallest brush out! 😉 Mind you for £8.05 what did i expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
