My 1/35th German armor models

Hi everyone

I'm Wouter and new to the forum. I'm quite interested in history, especially the German army an Waffen-SS during WWII. Since 2010 I started building 1/35th scale models, mainly German armor. I received a pm which suggested to post some of my work...well, think it's a good idea :milsmile:

So here goes:

these are some examples, some of them are based on existing pieces of armor, the JagdPanther is a 'what if' JP used as a Night Fighter.
My latest WIP is a beute Char B1 bis serving at the eastern front

(not sure why the forum 'cuts' my photos on the right side though :|

Hope you guys like it a bit ^^

Cheers
Wouter

Nice looking work Chumpo!

The figures are really good and the king tiger camo is spot on.

You have been hiding your light under a very big bush fella.

Your DAK has a great colour, what did you use, it really is on the button.

Nice to see what you have been up to in the basement all this time.

hope your IV A is moving forward too.

Great work

Marcus, thanks mate, and thanks for solving the photo issue ^^

Chumpo, thanks for the tip fella. Glad you like them :D

Steve, errrm, thanks but I ain't chumpo :P. Regarding the DAK color: I assume you refer to the Panzer III? Well, it's actually a PzIII of the Das Reich Division during Operation Zitadelle. The basecolor which I used was Vallejo Dark Yellow. Afterwards I sprayed on highlights using Vallejo DY mixed with some white. Weathering seriously altered the colortone though.

Hi Ace, thanks a lot for that mate. Glad you like the weathering :)

Cheers
