I've got this in my stash,I've already built the Tamiya 1/48. What detailing sets are you using ? It's looking good.

Great initial Tiger! Love the net on the barrel etc.! What kind of colour do you use? Its a very nice "Sandgelb/Dunkelgelb"!

Use AK Interactive paint from their Afrika Korps Colors Set (AK 550) using AK 703 (Graugrun) and AK 700 (Braun) mix the Braun to lighten some and darken the green a little - air brush a two tone camouflage. Initially the color seen a bit off however applying AK Filter (AK 065) Africa Korps Filter darken the overall color tone. Applied three coats over the whole vehicle. Followed with AK Wash (AK 066) for DAK vehicles, darken the color tone more. After detailed painting tools and other items applied a black oil pin wash and brushed stain / water marks. Applied AK Africa Dust Effects applying with thinner to vary the effects. Used a couple different pigments (MIG/AK/other) mixed with water and brush over lower hull, track, wheels, etc. Once dried went back over with brush to remove and vary the effects.

Very Nice job and paint work, I just want to give a little tip, next time give tour tank some battle damage, especially on the side fenders and maybe leave 1 fender off.
