| Thanks Mike! I painted, weathered & detailed (using both HL & Peddinghaus decals) the HL Tiger based on a 1943 Das Reich scheme from Tiger In Action by Bruce Culver. The HL Sherman already comes with restrained weathering that I liked. I just did a pin wash in some areas, painted the figure & used the supplied HL decals to replicate a Sherman from the 6th Armored based on pics from the web. Cheers, Pete |

| I figure as much, the Tiger does not look like stock.
Hope to see you out at the K/W battle field at some point. Keep checking here for dates as we have been doing social distanced (Tanks and Tankers) battles last year. |
