Kalashnikov-47 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Here's my 1/72 Dragon Tiger, almost finished. Thanks again to everyone who replied to my earlier post about painting the tracks. Painted with Model Master enamels and dirtied up with pastels and washes. I haven't had this much fun with a model in a long time! The vinyl "rubber band" tracks were a little tight and that was the only problem encountered. Still need to work on my track painting technique, but I'll get there! - Patrick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalashnikov-47 Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Thanks, Sean! Took me two days to do everything. Paint work was done last night in about two hours or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmike Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Very nice indeed! I have only just picked up the new Dragon Tiger I (initial) and that looks a nice kit as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Mike! I think I want to do a Sherman for my next little tank project, I just need to find a nice kit. I think Dragon makes a nice Sherman in 1/72. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmike Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Dragon certainly do, but complicated. Lots of parts in those bogeys! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graemeb Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Nice build there Patrick, really looks good, nicely painted and weathered, just one small little thing, next time round dirty the number up a bit or is it just the flash causing to look way to white.

HOLMES Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Oh MY word.....The painting is absolutely FLAWLESS and STUNNING...Took you two hours...Bit long is it not Patrick..Jutst teasing you.. GREAT job on your Tiny TIGER..... :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
konbini Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 (edited) GREAT BUILD there patrick!! those tracks look mighty rusty n old, n superb airbrush job too - will definitely pass as a very well built 1/35 (guess what that means for 1/72 ). Two days is mighty fast for a build, and 2 hours for the paint job too! I'd say awesome concentration and dedication to that build, which naturally came out top notch. If i end up building a tiggey in 1/72 or 1/48 , will be lookin to ya (soviet, us, or whatever for that matter) Thanks for posting! and giving me some salivating time David Edited October 16, 2009 by konbini Quote Link to post Share on other sites
