German Pz.Kpfw. Ausf. E VI Tiger I Late Prod.

Today, I just started a new project, which is the Tiger I late from Dragon. This has been a kit released long ago but I really do not have the intention to work on it at all.

The Dragon Tiger I has been a great kit in the AFV market, I have also acquired a few of those. But sooner they are too much for my work bench so I have traded a couple of those through online bidding.



The details are exceptional. Parts are to be assembled even on sone major elements like hull walls and doors. I have some parts preassembled and progress will go on for a few weeks.

The rubber track fromthe kit has been assembled onto the wheels. And I have added some weathering on the lower hull with MIG pigment. In the mean time, I have also applied a little Old Rust and Light Rust pigment to enrich the weathering around the paint chippings.

After some trial-and-errors, I have got the turret and lower hull painted and weathered. You may notice I have repainted the turret into a different color tone. And I have the water marks, and rustings recreated with oil colors and art carbon pencil. I have also applied different shades of filters with oil paints as well.

After completing the VF-1S, my bench now has much more space so I can start putting AB putty on the swing arms for the M1. And this time, I have worked on both the 2004 and 2009 M1.

Okay, this is it. The landing gears were attached and I have given a little black wash on the flight with specific directions. This is really fun to have a SF airplane kit building. I think I will be doing it again later on.

Today, I have got the turret painted in DAK color. In particular, I have tried to apply the Color Modulation idea by Adam Wilder on the turret. Afterall, I have put a Axis marking on the center of the turret. I have also redone the lower hull color as well as I found it too transparent and showing the metal color too obviously. The chippings were also redone as well.
