Yup Danial.. it's the Tamiya one that I got.

Hmm... Aren't all tanks tank destroyers? Haha..
I was planning to use the Stug IV for my tank destroyer campaign.. looks like I'll have to change then..

Interesting idea.. it's the "Seals" one I believe??
Maybe you might want to paint a certain brown to tone down the grass colour.
Oh.. I don't think it's considered a Dio.. too few figures. But thanks for sharing it with us.

Looking good eerie. Just the same question about the base for the "seals" one. What did you use for it?

I went missing for a while coz i was on reservist! Now, I've just completed painting 2 of the figures...working on the other 2...The Marder is from Tamiya...Got it cheap from the Tamiya Showroom Lelong Section. Think now i want to do more smaller sized dios, probably consisting of only figures...

I'm sure there were some white-washed King Tiger during the Battle of The Bulge and the Ardennes Offensive as it was a snowy battlefield...Best camo to adopt shd be white....

It depends.

It still has it's base colour on (with camouflage) during the first few months of the offensive after that, most have white wash camo on them.

Eerie, nice looking Tiger there. Hope to see the finished piece soon.

Eerie, nice Tiger, but what make is it? I've built 2 Tiger Is so far (one Tamiya Early and one Academy), but don't have the thingy on the sides of the turret. Those are some kind of additional storage space rite?

This is the Great DRAGOM MODEL TIger 1 Initial Production that the whole world is talking about. The 3-in-1 series. And the great EZI tracks nonsense

Those storage boxes are unique only to the "initial' Tigers. The very first Tigers who fought in Russia. I think there were 5 of them built.

The storage boxes are the same as the Pz IV storage box.

I think my next project would be the Initial tiger after i finished my hellcat, "stummel" and challenger...

No time, no time..i only have the weekends to model now

Hahaha.. the Great Ezi Tracks! Anyway... what a tank you have there eerie... it looks super cranked up. All that rust i presume.. it looks very nice so far. Maybe you can put it on a base like what Psyfool did. (Psyfool... the cobblestone groundwork from Tamiya?)

Mr Psyfool... Once again... I've got to pick my jaw up from the ground.. haha.. your dios looks great. One day I might copy some of your ideas... Hope you won't mind.. heh

No Parking!... how coincidental.. I believe it applies for tanks too eh..

Oh.. one more thing.. what set is the Figures from?? You do great figure paintings.. you've made them look very life like.. great job..

ThanK U..Thank U Ike..I kinda like this dio too, even though it's simple....U can always base ur dios on my dios or whoevers' dio...that's why we post them..If I want to keep it to myself, I wouldn't post pix of it.. I'll post the final end product soon...

In fact I post it in the main dio section juz to get a feel what modellers from other countries think of it...So far, response very heart-warming!!

The cobblestone is from Tamiya (abt $6-7?). There's a few cobblestone patterns and there's also a brick pattern, probably for walls..Tamiya showroom will surely have them..

Welcome Psyfool...
Yerp... just as I thought.. the Tamiya cobblestone set.. What about the figures? Haven't seen them before.
Oh.. I realized you raised the sidewalk... a layer of styrofoam i suppose? What about that lamp and its sign? I must have been asking too much... More beer for u...
