NICE!! One of the BEST tank model channels out there!! I especially liked the chipping details and the subtle weathering before the tank got all muddied up. Tanks take a beating even during peace times, when they're only moving about the landscape. Just imagine what WAR does to beat them up and weather them! Beautiful job!!!

Amazing results! Instant subscription. I haven't seen better, wonderful skills and a stunning model produced! I'm just getting into the hobby again since boyhood and I think why bother, I'll never be that good. I have lots of work to do to even get a third as good as yourself! Respect!
Hi Lukasz! I am late in watching this episode, but I have to say I was amazed how this Tiger turned out. Your building, painting and weathering skills are amazing. As a subscriber, I have watched the majority of your builds and tutorials, and I have learnt so much from your methods, that my own modelling is improving in leaps and bounds. For that alone, I thank you my friend. Great work on this big cat. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺!
Un gran trabajo . Me hencanta de verdad . Y sobre todo el yrabajo con el barro . Tendemos a cometer errores con los efectos del barro el secado , salpicaduras y la dirección de ellas . Mi enhorabuena uno de los mejores trabajos que he visto y lo que he aprendido también. Y lo de las semillas me ha parecido una genialidad, ¡¡ Viva la imaginación!! .¡ Gran trabajo!
I have not been a big fan of the look of the Tiger I but this one convinced me that it's not a bad looking tank. The model itself is excellent as always!
This, for me, is an absolute god send 🤓😎🤩 I’m doing RyeField’s Tiger 1 initial with full interior kit number 5050 with their up grade set an Aber barrel, and a few sets of PE 🤓🤓🤓 I’ve almost finished the interior now and about to start on the outside and as I’ve said this paint tutorial of yours is absolutely awesome 🤩😎😍 I love the mud clumps blown up onto the deck, extremely realistic in my view. The weathering, chipping, mud et is for me the most important as I’ve never done it before and the way you explain all methods and techniques is again extremely helpful to me 😊😊😊 She’s an absolute beauty and very life like/realistic. Your attention to detail the small parts that most miss is again extremely helpful to me and the timing couldn’t be better !!! So thanks for this video definitely gets my thumbs up 😂😍🤩😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Lukas, that was absolutely outstanding, watching you is like watching an artist at work, your work is really true art, I have nevef built a Tiger before but do have Tamiya's latest Panther in my stash, it has been out a few years now, hope you are having a great 2024, bedt regards to you and your family from Australia
Another great build and a really enjoyable watch my friend. Does Lukasz have a RU-vid page? I think I've seen some of his builds in articles in model magazines
nice,I love tigers...doing 3 atm lol..one (tamiya mid) I found pics of one that looks like someone poured paint stripper on....a chipping dream....top job m8
I think this model looks brilliant and really realistic. I think I have a personal problem though because I spend ages painting, doing washes, highlighting, painting rivets and nuts and bolts then weathering, chipping, scratching, dirtying, shading and shadows but I have never yet been able to brig myself to cover all this work with mud.
All effects should be done with certain limitations resulting from the fact that we are creating a model. This is not a real vehicle. In reality, there would be mud on most of the chassis, but you have to be careful so that the model doesn't look like a mud pot. I hope you understand what I mean? :)
In my younger days, I worked as a security guard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I worked with a German man who said during World War 2. That he was a gunner in panzer 4s and then in Tigers. It was a boring job so I would bring a model to occupy my time at night. I was painting a tiger tank and the old German man told me that I did not have to paint the tools or anything like that. He said that the Camouflage paint would cover everything. The only thing that was not painted was the.M.G 34 gunbarrel the glass and exhaust parts on the tiger one. He also said that under the mud fenders on the sides they were only red primer. All the tools were painted in the camouflage color. I do not know if this information will help you or not.But I thought it was something to know straight from a german gunner in a tiger tank.
Yep, I know all you said - the red primer under the genders and tools in camo colors. But making the model we need also make it interesting so this is why we paint the tools in normal "civilian" colors. I know it is not correct in 100% and according your information. The visual aspects are more important for me when I present my model. Maybe I need to try to to find a golden mean :) Thx a lot for your comment mate! :)
@coldemonspl Thank you for your response to me. I was only passing on what a actual German tank gunner told me. I did not expect you to change anything. I only thought you might have found it interesting. I build lots of models like you. And I try to do my best. But for me it was a real treat to actually talk to a man who was in a tank during many battles.
Thanks for sharing the excellent build tips. In video 23:18, do you use Tamiya acrylic to mix the reddish brown color? Do you remember the color number and the ratio?
Hi Lukas, smashing out the grenade of a Tiger will not happend through the escape hatch at the side of the turret, because it was too heavy so the crew was not able to close it from inside during the battle..in reality the loader threw the ammonution out of the tank through its loaders hatch.. best wishes 🙂
If you are toalking about the rope holeding the flag on place, it is a modelling string. Maybe it looks a bit like a wire but it works well and much better than standard string :) It is 0,1mm. :)
To fix pigments I used white spirit or Tamiya thinner X-20A or Pigments fixer. Also Universal Weathering Carrier (VMS) or Pigment Cement (Modellers World). Hope it helps :)
I have been around heavy equipment pretty much all my life and cables are just rust no silver color at all maybe if not to old they might have a bit of paint on them but if they are used much at all yeah they are rust not trying to start anything just my observation and opinion
I was thinking about that a lot. It always depend on the model I build and sometimes some rust appear there when needed. I dont like to make models rusted, especially WW2 vehicles when their life time was really short. In modern vehicles it is more possible for sure :)
@@coldemonspl I think God hand make some.... The best ones will be made from high carbon tool steel... Not HSS (high speed steel) tool steel and HSS are totally different
@@coldemonspl Ob meine Angaben so stimmen weiß ich nicht 100%,aber so habe ich es recherchiert.Guter Bau...ich bin beim Figuren bemalen nicht gut.Besonders die gefällt mir im Video.Nette Grüsse!
