Very fun build. Used wire rods through the side hull wall to push down the tracks, as all they are is rubber band kit tracks. If you look close, you can see the end of the wire between the drive sprocket and first wheel above the tacks. It looks like a little dot.
Primed and ready to go. Battle damage & torch marks made using a drill bit, putty, Dremel tool & soldering iron. Just having fun and making it more interesting while testing out skills.
For some reason, decided to paint the barrel flat black, and add gloss black near the front. Was this a vain attempt to replicate some sort of recoil, can't remember.
Used Lion Roar WWII German AFV stencils, (LAM0001) to paint all the markings. Again, fun little adventure, and happy with most of the results. Better than decals if it comes out right.
Just a lot of dust and rust on the weathering, so it shows more of a urban battle ground vs a rural environment. Buddy cast some 1/48 scale bricks so may use them to add to the tank. They have to be painted and weathered first to match.
Interesting build for a Paint Mule. Even as a paint mule, the urge to go a little further is always present. The Tamiya Tiger was missing its port/left side fender, so the Toon Tiger had to be missing it's.
