TINY TIGER TANK!
« on: July 25, 2014, 08:47:20 pm »

Here is a very small Airfix 1/76 Tiger. It has been AB, basic field camo added, and then I highlighted the metal edges, hatches by using a pencil (this gives of dull sheen when the light catches it) this was then added to using washes and filters. All added on a basic board. This was hard work as it was so small-in fact every piece was dropped at least twice...a pain but much fun. Too small for cramping hands and old eyes so shall leave the Braille scale alone in future.

No patience at all with this build, it was started at 11 this morning and finished by 6pm. Although I enjoyed it I was not going to have it hanging around on the workbench  O0
