Here’s some pic’s of my latest build.I built the KT but it looked to plain all by it’s self so I had to make a base for it.The KT is from Dragon built oob,the tank commander I put together using parts from my stash of body parts.The zimmerit was applied with poly-s putty and aTamiya tool.I had to paint the charging knight’s by hand becuase the kit’s decal’s broke apart when I put them in water.The street,fence and lamp post I made from scratch.I have a new one in the work’s should be done in a couple month’s.

Excellent work Panzerguy. Hand painted turret markings look great as well.

I like the tram tracks and the manhole cover. These small details really make a difference.

Panerguy, well done. Beautiful work.

That is some quality work. I love the Dio, and the tank is just quality. Turret markings painted by hand [bow]

Very nice!! You should post that tank on its own over in the armour section too…

Fine work here…you must have been an understudy to Vespa at some point to pull off that sublime base-work…

Excellent work on both the figure and the King Tiger!! Well done!

Thats amazing. You should do a tutorial on that base, i’d love to know how you did it, especially the tram tracks and manhole.

SteveM · June 17, 2008, 5:07pm

Excellent work, panzerguy. If anything, I’d like to see the street a little dirtier. But that’s only me.

Yeah hey sorry dude… I meant to say how great that looks when I came here yesterday to have a look.

The base and figure really sets off the King Tiger. Lovely build!

Cheers

More than a journeymans job. Tiger’s great, not overdone (Lovely job on the tracks & 505’s logo, I love to see hand painted markings.)fine looking figure to. Base & background look a little out of place to me, but that may be my own ignorrance of such things. TigerII’s are my fave AFV, bravo on a sharp one.

Hey Panzerguy,

Do I see a potential candidate for next years AMPSEast ‘Best in Show’-threepeat???

panzerguy · September 29, 2008, 8:15am

Thanks browniii but no this wont be in the running. I took this to AMPS 07 were it took a gold in armor. I’ll start planning my next one soon.
