Global Scale Modeller

Hello gents my entry to the Tiger I build



I plan on doing the top left scheme, commanded by Willi Fey 1./s.Pz.Abt.102, Normandy 1944




My second armor build ever! The picture below is my progress thus far.



Thanks for looking

haha... You're such and aircraft builder Jermaine haha... Cutting off all those parts like that.

Great start buddy. The wheels and the rear plate are the trickiest parts to build. So far so good

First small update, fuel tanks and fans painted.

Ok... That's cool! I never thought to do that to any of my work.
Clever boy!
I'm liking the looks of those fuel cells, those are really cool colours Jermaine.

Thanks Mike, I sign all of my work. Every model I have done has my signature somewhere within.

Nice work J, Did a real nice job on those fan blades

More Progress!

Tadaaaa! Looks good Jermaine.

Well this is going slow but I'm but I'm enjoying every minute of the build.

Looks cool Jermaine.
Have you glued the turret roof on yet or is it just friction fit?

Its just dry fit on at the moment. I got the bible now so this build should start picking up now I hope.

Ooooo! You got the bible!!?? Cool! I hope that didn't set you back to much, they're stupid expensive.

125.00 which I consider a great price these days. I'm really amazed with the info in that book. I have no regrets buying it and everything you guys said about it was spot on and its a real gem!

125 is a fair price considering. I've seen it go for a lot more, so well done!

Looking good Jermaine. I like the look of the zimmerit - this should look really great in paint. So, now you have the bible and you won't be conferring with us anymore? Well! (as Jack Benny would say).

Keep it up - want to see more!

Excellent progress Jermaine, looking great so far!

And I love the little touch with your signature inside the hull!

Your build looks like it is coming along nicely. Signature is a nice touch. Also would be good if they would print another run of the tiger bible. Keep up fine work.

First time doing tool clamps in PE


Side mud guard damage.

Coming along, slowly!

It may be your first time, but it looks pretty good. Those tow cables will be "fun" to attach.
Patience young skywalker.

This looks very good
Really clean and a lot of detail
Keep up the good work

Finally, we made it to paint.








Thanks for looking.

Damn nice looking build there man. Look forward to paint.

Pretty clean build. Nice job.

Nice work on it Jermaine

Looks very nice, great job so far!

Nicely done Jermaine, very neat and clean build buddy.

Hopefully you haven't started painting yet... before you do you should fill this.

That is some nice,tidy PE work.

Awesome can't wait for the rest of it

Oh and a couple of bits of crap

Ok here is some more of my monstrosity!



Then I got crazy and attempted complete madness!





Then I got to the detail painting!





And thats all I got for now! Cya soon!

That's not madness... That's awesomeness!!

The camo that was used on Will Fey's Tiger is one of my favorites
I tried it some years back on a Tiger and it is one of the last "old" kits that i didn't strip and paint over
Great work on your build
Although it make me curious to see what you will do with the weathering
The tank has a lot of color besides the dark yellow and i find that heavy camo vehicles are thougher to weather in terms of wash colors and chipping
Looking forward for some more

Love that camo! Great job mate

Awesome paint work !!

Excellent airbrushing skills!,That camo came out awesome
