1/35 Dragon Tiger initial production sPzAbt 502 tactical number 100

Post by Linushg »

My Dragon Tiger I got when i turned 16 (this year). Its a innitial production model so no zimmerith or anything that is annoying to work with. Kit goes together like a dream. I strongly Recommed it to everyone who wants a pleasing build. And there is no need for filler or anything like it.

Image
these where quite hard to get right and unnessecary as i couldnt make the suspension worl :wall:
Image
Image
Quite nice details but unnessecary as i will build with closed hatches.
Image
Image
The engine deck is comming along quite nice
Image
Hull is nearly done
P.S sorry for the shitty english but i cant seem to spell today :crazy:

That's a good start! Dragon kits are marvelous - a bit fiddly with a plethora of tiny detail parts, but amazing fit! I'll have to get my Dragon Panther started, though I'm fearful as the thing has Zimmerit. Anyways, I am eager to see what you make of this kit. Getting past the lower hull is quite a relief!
- Alles gut!

Looking good. You've got a proper big cat there mate. Gun breach looks very cool.

No, im fully occupied with setting up a good painting station for my airbrush. It quite a lot harder than you think if you want a fan to be able to showe the air out before you inhale it.

Oh, but for that I have the perfect solution! Simply, don't breathe! It's that simple! That is, if you paint the model in less than a minute - before gasping for air. As I don't have an airbrush myself, I perceive them as being quick as jets; Whoosh!
