I have repainted the Jagdtiger to depict it in winter camouflage. This is the Porsche suspension. I have not done any weathering effects on it yet - still too come!

I love the terrain. The camo for the Jagdtiger works ot a lot better than I would have thought

Thanks for the comments. I consider myself a beginner - my figure painting is testament to that!! One day I'll learn how to do the figures properly. I really liked the paint scheme - I had seen it in a couple of reference books including "Jagdtiger", by Janus Ledwoch, a polish/English reference book with beautiful colour plates.

Have you seen Night Shift's tutorial on figure painting on YouTube? Even as a beginner you can have very good looking figures if you follow his tutorial. It would greatly enhance your diorama.

Yes I like Martins vids! It's more an issue of impatience with me. I will eventually get around to it just not yet.
