Wittman's Last Drink Aug. 8th '44

Erik.

Ignorance is bliss, had I not mentioned it... how many would realize it? Now you know why I can never be a judge. Also, I never reviewed any of Dragon's Tigers.

Did you paint the interior? If not, visit David Byrden's site as he corrects Dragon's instructions.

Regards,
 
SHARK,

It also appears that it's gone by a few people ... NO one's mentioned it except for that one guy you supplied th link to .. but look at his Build ... He did some interior work on th Breech ... but still didn't build a Block ! :D

Apparently Dragon has never included it in ANY of Their tiger Kits ! Still a Faux Paux .. at least I think anyway !

It's all Cool .. I just got back from HobbyTown & picked up some EverGreen 3.2mm X 4.0mm strip styrene & it seems like a good fit .... Now I just gotta whip it into shape !!

Yes ... I'm very familiar with Mr.Byrden's Panzer Colors page !! I highly recommend it to any one wanting to build a Panzer !! I've already painted th Lower Hull in th correct colors for the Time Period that this Tiger came from th Factory !!

The Interior was painted in Elfinbein ( Tamiya Buff + White) innerds were picked out in Vallejo Field Grey , Black. The Vision Blocks received the usual treatment - M.M Chrome & then laid on some Tamiya Clear Green) . It was then abused with Vallejo German Camo Black/Brown for wear & washed , streaked & Mucked up with AK Interactives Grime for Dark Yellow vehicles. The Interior stencils are from Verlinden. I'll try to get some better shots of th stencils after I top th interior off with some personal storage .... i.e. Magazines , Newspapers , Pin-Ups ! :woohoo: Let's go down below .... Walk this way .....

R.O.'s station. Verlinden stencils adore the box containing the Head set & the Throat mic , along with some Ammo for th Bow M.G. The Lower Hull was given th same weathering treatment as th Turret with th exception of "greasing" up th Floor a bit with a few X-tra layers of the AK Grime ! I still need to add some pigments to top this Kitty off !!
