Thank you Pat! This was my first attempt at simulating chipped paint. I learned the technique from reading this blog entry.

Video of my Heng Long 1:16 Panzer Tiger 1, it is not customed...once something breaks I will get the metal kit for it. Hope you all don't mind me posting this, I don't like starting new threads when something close will do. Besides, since I just got it, you may see small changes in production...who knows...

I like the AfrikaKorps color myself, with a little rust here and there.

Here is a video of my 1:24 M1A1 Abrams in Gulf War paint by Hen Long. I do not like the controller at all, I would rather have the two stick like the Tiger 1 by Heng Long. Also, this tank has no sound at all, I added the M1A1 turbine sound to the video, engine start up, running and shut

down. I painted a few things on the tank, rear exhaust covers, guns, and such, nothing radical at all.

Hi guys,
New to this forum and just got my first H.L. Tiger1 last week , anyway do you think I overdid the colours? I don't have an airbrush so did it by brush only .
May have to get an airbrush and blow it over with red brown /yellow.

Cheers MIKE.

Just going over it with a brownish wash may do the trick.

Just finished customizing mine today! I'll post pics tomorrow. Hey anyone got any thoughts on how I can make urban battlefields and bunkers for my 1/16 tank?
