Bill.B Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Wanting a rest from building aircraft I dug out a 1/35 Zvezda Tiger out of the stash to try some new weathering techniques and as a result this is simply a test vehicle, not a cabinet Queen, although I don't think it's too shabby. It's built from the box apart from the Friulmodel tracks and Aber aerial which I salvaged from an earlier kit that eventually ended up in the recycling. Paints are a mixture of Tamiya and Vallejo, Humbrol weathering powders and Windsor & Newton acrylic Matt varnish to seal everything in. 20 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Robin Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 How, may I politely ask, is that NOT a cabinet queen? It's bloody wonderful. One small "gripe" if you like, and it's not to do with the painting, but it kinda looks like its floating above the groundwork. Personally I would have settled it a little. But please, please, don't let that detract from super work. Regards Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrancisGL Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 A pretty beast, she may not be a "showcase queen" but she looks really good, and her base adds a positive touch. Cheers and TC Francis.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
