Mukund SB Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Hi Folks, I am a new member at Britmodeller. Thought of sharing my build photos. This Dragon JagdTiger was started as a Group Build with another forum. Currently completed most of the build and base painting done. Still lot of work needs to be done to complete this. The build progressed quickly enough but now it is sitting there for a week without any work. Was looking at the build threads here to get some inspiration. And decided to share my progress pics here as well..... I have signed up for a GB in Britmodeller which will be starting soon...So this post would as well test the photo uploading work flow I have been out of modelling scene for the past several years. Slowly getting back to build again.... Lots of new things to learn.....Feel free to comment and point out mistakes. A question - Is it OK to share the progress pics from GB elsewhere? Thanks for watching and Have a Great Day. Mukund 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mukund SB Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 Small update to my build..... Tools and such painted.... Getting ready for washes and weathering.... After the Mr color clear the colors looks really bright in the pictures... Will tone down in the next steps hopefully. Thanks for watching and Have a Great Day Mukund 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Model Mate Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 yumm - factory fresh... I bet it's got that "new tank" smell! Don't worry, weathering will knock it back. Great work so far... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mukund SB Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 Thanks for the vote of confidence @Model Mate Even though my choice of LED lighting has exaggerated the brightness in these photos, I seriously hope to tone it down in the weathering steps.... Thanks again 👋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stef N. Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) The wash worked well. Calmed the newness and the colours down just enough. What colours/paints are you using btw?👍 Edited October 26, 2021 by Stef N. Added question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What colors/paints are you using btw?👍 Hi @Stef N. Thanks for the comment. I use Mr. color mostly. Wash using oils. For detail hand painting used Tamiya enamels. The main culprit for the shine is Mr. Color Gloss. I used the rattle can. Toning down that shine is always a challenge for me. But the clear coat is very versatile and stand some rough handling so I still stick with it... Took few more pictures. I am going to leave it alone for few weeks and pick it up later to continue with tracks etc.... Thanks for watching and Have a Great Day. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
