I like the look of your road wheels and tracks. The worn paintjob is a nice touch. The rusty cables I would make less so, but that's just preference talking. Nice job,
GREG
Very beautifull BIG cat you have here. I really like the faded base color very much. I love that used look and the tank looks very HEAVY to me, which is a very good thing too.
My two cents are:
1) Your beast needs dust, dust and dust. I do not mind if sand or earth shade (I leave that to your discretion) but a dusty looks would fit very well in my opinion.
2) Please do not leave those towing cables so rusty. Towing cables can de dusty, but on every tank manual you can read towing cables must have good condition because if not they will break easily and those cables are very precious for tank crews. In fact towing cables are protected by oil/grease to avoid rust actually.
As long as people are making suggestions I'd suggest that you first give the decals a thin spray of the Dunkelgelb to fade them, then paint some grey scratches on them to make them look like part of the paintwork.

So about ,what dou you think about it?
Maybe should i make more variation on the dust?
Please,don't hesitate to tell me if it's not good !
Will you be sending some pics for the gallery and describing your paint and methods? I think it's perfect! (after paint or darkening the cables with pigments) GREG
You must know I love coffee, so I would be glad to have that cup and chat with you one fine day in the future.
It seems admiration is mutual as I am fan of your beautifull models too. By the way, Will we have a chance to see this one in the mags too?. Please keep us informed if so.
Ohhh... I almost forget it. Your Tiger looks much greater now. Well done. this one is almost complete now.
