Better method, dont use them, just paint something approximately the right shape and colour, looks crap in a close up piccy, but looks fine on the table.

Progress.

4 Tigers completed - one more than I can have in a BKCII battlegroup of any size - doh!

Also 4 Sdkfz 251s which I'd forgotten I'd painted and that I found while looking for something else!

Happy with the Tigers but not so sure about the tiger stripe camo on the halftracks but ... they're painted. Which is more than can be said for most of my WW2 10mm stuff.

9 stands of infantry - basic troops for my Panzergrenadier Battalion - undercoated. Progress likely to be slow on these due to Real Life (tm) commitments but hopefully not as slow as it has been to date. At least 1st Company has some nice Hannomags to ride around in. Opel Blitz trucks for the rest to be painted later.

Nice!!!


ps: you can always rebase your tiger and put him on a hq base, to command your tiger platoon

and btw, did you put the commanders on the tigers yourself? I have a pendraken tiger too, and he came without the commander ,??

[Ithoriel]

The tigers were bought off EBay and marked as Pendraken. Never thought to check that they were. 

The commanders are certainly part of the casting.

Oh well, never believe what you read online I guess.

Not sure though, maybe there are 2 different versions, let's wait for Leon to shed his light

All our tank commanders come as separate castings, so they wouldn't be ours if they're part of the casting.

Look good, but 'clean'...being a fan of all things dirty, I'd (paradoxically) give 'em a wash to add some depth & filth...and stipple some mud over the tracks and lower hull...

Try lightly dry-brushing the entire model in a slightly lightened version of the base-colour. Brings out the detail through the camo.

Nice work, i've never painted cammo but it looks good to me, think i'd prefer the dirty look though if they were mine,
