Thanks Man. I think I could have turned up the chipping a bit, but I'm glad it looks ok.

Thanks OD. I could have pushed it further, but this is only like my second serious build. I've built plenty of things I either never finished or used to learn on since I started last year, and I think I'm progressing.

Thats come out really nice Mannloon, love that camo scheme, very well painted. The weathering and chipping is just spot-on as well, nice and subtle and it all ties in perfectly. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Looking forward to watching your vid once I get home from work as well. :pop:

Thanks Gustav. This was my first time ever doing chipping. I was terrified.

That's and AWESOME looking tiger Adam!
That multilayered chipping looks good too. Not an easy effect to pull off, especially on a multimedia piece like a zimmerited tiger.
It turned out really well. The tracks look better than you think too. A bit of dust/dirt to give them life is probably all you'd need to do. Unless you're planning a vignette or a dio, I wouldn't do much more than that.
Well done bud. :th: :th: :th:

Thanks very much Mike. The Zim threw me a bit as to how to weather the thing. Wasn't sure if rust would streak down it, or if I should try to chip it. Anyway, I'm happy with the piece. I'm glad it's as good as it is. Again, thanks for all the help sir.

Thanks very much Paul. If I had it do again, which I suppose I do because I could just do more: I'd go a more intense on the chipping and dust up the lower hull, but I do very much like the progress I've made even since the Jagdpanther. Honestly though I thought my wash came out better on the Jagdpanther, not sure if that had to do with the base paint tones...either way.

But thank you.
