Okej, my first serious diorama, so best to make it good

Looks cool so far. I would love to see an angle from behind the tank to see the car getting crushed.

Yes looks great, and would also love to see the left side of the tank with the car underneath!

Who is the nanchalant bloke in the background?

I think if you could have a few German infantry wandering along the back/sides, make make it look like there was more going on, and add more personality.

I do love the way hat the tank buckles the metal on the car though

Great work so far. I'd also like to see the automotive destruction

Tanks for the really quick comments

I was actually thinking of putting some more Infantry men or just a few lampposts, I might paint all that I have fore now before I decide.
But as you said it is a bit empty at the moment.

Here are the pic's you requested. (You'll probably notice a bit of changed layup)

Awesome, I love the Tiger I tank. Really im a fan of WWII German armor in general, as well as post war Soviet armor.

What tracks did you use or did those come with the tank?

The rubber tracks came with the tank (with one spare), they where really easy to ensemble.

If you can see, I haven't fixed the suspension yet, but it will be don today.

I hope that the individual parts are not fastened down, otherwise I would shudder at trying to paint this thing. excellent work!

Look's good so far, have some extra movement with the turret traversed as well.

oh missed you post AG. sorry
The "nonchalant bloke" in the background is my Feldgendarmerie. He is watching the destruction of an old car and taking an relaxing smoke

Hehe no all bits are lose and can at the moment be moved around the place as I wish.

I was into the whole traversing turret at first but decided to have it straight forward as I want it all to give a feel of slow advance east.

Today I picked up a few infantry to be placed with the panzar, pic's are coming as soon as I built them

Now then
Got some more people in there, hope it is doing it's job.
I have 2-3 more unassembled but I don't want it to get to crowded.

This is turning out great! I need to see this painted up.

That looks freaking cool, cant wait to see it painted and all finished.

Those troops really add a sense of scale, and really fit in well I think.

Pretty damn awesome I think!

Progress check: Primer and first layer of paint on the Tiger

Grey applied and then scratched.

Sprayed on some rust colour, first time I have tried Modelmaster Akryl (British Crimson), its a really good paint to use in airbrush, you can actually smell the quality
Going to put on some pigment's and then take some more pictures.

nice looking so far keep up the good work

I'm watching this... with interest

Progress, so far so good.

Great work
