Actually was going to repaint it but liked the pattern so I just airbrushed the yellow with Humbrol dark yellow and kept the green. Added mesh screens for the rear vents, mounts for the missing skirts and painted the yellow over the green to make it look like the green was added after all skirts were added, periscopes, handles, drilled out the MG barrels, armored tube for the light, new range rods and crank, track sag, antenna and mount, latch & new holder for shovel, and light weathering.

Great looking Jagtiger, man. Awesome attention to minute details.

Now stop distracting yourself and work on that 1/16 full-interior King Tiger!!! :lol: :P

Thanks Flyboy & GooglyDoogly for the kind words,

Yes I am looking at the 1/16 KT and getting ready to dive into it...but might wait for ABER to release their new PE for it before I get too deep.
(It was doing the research on the King Tiger that that got me messing about with the Jagdtiger.)

During the 21st Century sale frenzy, I also picked up a cold steel KT and ripped it up at the same time...I need to shoot some pics of that one at it turned out quite well.

All done, added the spare track holders to the levitating spare tracks, added the lift hooks to the roof and rear deck and detailed the interior that no one will ever see…

A look inside at the recoil mech.& massive breech of the 12.8 cm gun.
(forgive the weird lighting/color)

and tweeked the 21st century King Tiger for good measure...handles, lift rings, deck screens, track sag, weathering and thickened up the tow ears on the rear for the U brackets...
