They look really cool. I guess you like Tiger tanks.
Great work mate |

How'd you get a paint scheme like that? I am trying to paint mine a decent camo.

Yeahh!! Great work!! It rocks!!
I have the same question: How did you paint these tanks? Airbrush? Could you tell us the steps followed for paint it? I'm finished my soviet and american tanks recently and I'm interested in buy some german tanks... Thanks in advance!! :) |

Thanks for all the positive feedback and sorry for the late reply!
I first basecoated the tanks with Zandri Dust through the airbrush. - I then painted the green stripes/splotches with Loren Forest. - I did the same thing again but with Mournfang Brown. - The entire model was then drybrushed Ushabti Bone - Tools, wooden handles and tracks were painted with Ironbreaker, Dryad Bark and Abaddon Black respectively. - The tanks were then given a shade wash with Agrax Earthshade. - Nuln Oil wash was used for exhausts and engine grills.
Hope that helps!

The colors are great choices for the camo. I have been using the FOW paint sets - personal choice. One thing that I have been doing for the camo pattern is using a sponge to paint it on. It gives the effect of a troop painted tank without looking like the painter was just sloppy.

Those look excellent. For those wanting multiple Tigers, Flames of War put out a Tigers Marsch platoon set that is 5 Tigers, commander sprue, decals for Wittmann's platoon, and a bunch of TANKS cards (3 Tiger cards, Wittmann, and a bunch of add-ons). Cheaper than actually buying 5 tigers and you get the extras. Just make sure it's not the really old Tigers Marsch box in resin.
Did you paint your Panzer IV and Stug III with the schurzen on or off? I didn't put it on until after as I figured it'd be easier, especially with the details on the side of the tank.
