Pud Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 None of the current tigers grabbed me by the short and curlies so I desided to do my own. Ok, the colour scheme is debatable but it is high res. Its made from scratch (except track, hull track is Tigers, main track is BTS original of course) so its taking a very long time around 20 hours to get this far so perhaps in a week? I expect a few hatches are opening the wrong way etc but hopefully there isnt too many errors.

M. Bates Posted April 19, 2001 Share Posted April 19, 2001 Looks slightly orangy to me. Have you seen the Tiger from the Mad Dog add-on (available at www.combatmission.com) 'Tis good unless you've already seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pud Posted April 19, 2001 Author Share Posted April 19, 2001 Yep seen them all, just none really caught my eye, with all due respect to JohnS. Its a personal preference thing I suspect. Colour - I can reduce the saturation of this later if it does end up being too orange (I suspect it is). Probably do a few colour saturation variants to allow choice. (Edit} the colour scheme was always the hard part. [ 04-19-2001: Message edited by: Pud ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfamily33 Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Keep at it, it's looking good. I assume your going to add the engine grill on the back. The German cross looks like it set too far back on the side hull. Definitely adjust the saturation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pud Posted April 20, 2001 Author Share Posted April 20, 2001 If anyone has a good colour scheme for a tiger they could send me to use in place of this one. I have reduced the saturation but after working on this colour for so long I think my retinas have been burnt out a bit, anything else seems pale now :cool: I got this orange flavour from here ARMOR CAMOUFLAGE & MARKINGS By G.

Itchy Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Not looking to bad for a debut. A bit of weathering makes all the difference though...don't like clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy w/gun Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Try this site: http://www.panzer-vi.fsnet.co.uk/ Lots of Tiger camo schemes. Good site all around too. Tigers are my fav! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcm1947 Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Looks nice so far. One question. When the tank is finished will you be able to tell the different between the body of the tank and the turret? Right now it looks like it's all one piece or this the way it's supposed to look?

bfamily33 Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 bump - how's this one shaping up Pud? You didn't give up, did you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pud Posted April 26, 2001 Author Share Posted April 26, 2001 No, still plodding along with it, changed the colour scheme. Just put in on hold for the last week. Thanks for the interest, it helps with the motivation. Latest incarnation, top of hull not done yet hence the image angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfamily33 Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I like the new scheme as well as the old one. Keep at it. Looks like you're working hard at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
