googlydoogly -> My Old Tanks (5/7/2008 9:36:48 PM)

My very first 1/16th tank: Tamiya's Tiger 1

After building that, of course I had to get it's nemesis: Trumpeter's 1/16th T-34/76 Mod. 1943.

Then I had the itch to buy the Tiger II. Sadly, I lost the figure during our move. :(

Then I modified it a little and re-painted this beast.

Still wasn't happy with it so I ripped it apart so I could put Matorro's KT upper hull and turret on top of it. What a surprise, it fit like a charm! :D

And last but not least, I repainted my 1/16th FOV full-interior King Tiger.

I still have to take pics of my other T-34/76, Pershing, the new Tiger I, re-painted T-34/85, because they're all in a state re-building. :D




StumpyBloke -> RE: My Old Tanks (5/7/2008 9:41:46 PM)

gigantohawk -> RE: My Old Tanks (5/7/2008 9:50:07 PM)

Very good modelling and paint there my friend. I know Stumpybloke likes your T34, but I particularly like your Tiger 1 and its octopus paint scheme. Well done mate and like stumpy says...Staggeringly good looking models.

Nick.




fv432 -> RE: My Old Tanks (5/7/2008 9:56:44 PM)

I am doing a similar T34 too. Good selection of models there.

Excellent work! I love the Tiger... one of the best camo paint jobs I've seen!

astroboycp -> RE: My Old Tanks (5/12/2008 9:12:42 AM)

From the photos they don't seem to have TBU installed or maybe I was wrong?




googlydoogly -> RE: My Old Tanks (5/13/2008 8:04:40 PM)

Thanks guys! I'm glad you like my paint jobs. And no, I have not installed TBUs in any of my tanks. I have no one to battle with.

Although I always wanted to see and hear exactly what happens when a Tamiya tank gets "hit". :D
