Default Maus Camo

So I decided to finally add some 'character' to the Maus.

May not be totally accurate, but then, the Maus was sort of a what-if vehicle anyway.

This camo is 'Tiger Brown'

Beautiful job on the cammo, really sets it off. Attached is Kubinka Maus. At least it's presentable now with a relatively new paint job.

That sure looks nice Eric! The MAUS was more of a prototype than a what if but they never went into production so any paint scheme is perfect!

That looks like one of the Karl Gerats next to that at Kublinka.

I don't really remember the color scheme, I do remember it had at the time KT wheels behind the facade. That's on the condition that my aging memory is correct, it was about the time I was in process of moving east.

That was Keith Graybeal's Maus modified from the King Tiger, from what I remember it was not quite finished and it had the battle system sensor at the rear.

For ten years, it inspired me to finally build my own, I plan to make another appearance with my Maus at Danville this May.

Yup, I think so. I really miss the Danville meets. There's a good strong club in Moskau but it's a bit of a drive for us.
