    1/72 Pegasus King Tiger - ready for some weathering

    H all

    Yet another wargaming quick build kit.

    If I'm honest it's not the best QB kit I've seen. The wheels in particular are a bit indistinct and the hull was warped at the back but I thought it would make another good test bed for my initial AB attempts last year.

    I added a bit of stowage and tracks from the Plastic Soldier Company and then my daughter has added some tissue paper tarpaulin on the back. It is her modelling specialty and so is the go to person in our house when I want some doing.

    As it wasn't a great kit and I wasn't planning for it to see the light of day, I didn't take a lot of car on assembly so the odd seam line is visible in places. I wish I'd taken a bit more care over the assembly now as it's scrubbed ok in my opinion (other than me messing up a decal) and so will be making it onto the battlefield, much to my son's dismay in his capacity as British C-in-C.

    It's sat been waiting in a box to be weathered for the past year and so I thought it was about time I finished it and so I plan giving pigments a go for the first time.

    ACW before it gets weathered!

                  Thanks Scottie. I'm pleased with it considering it was only my 2nd go and using an AB.

                      Can't beat a King Tiger. Nicely done Andy especially as it is your second attempt.

                        Thanks Steve. To be honest I was surprised how well it turned out - clearly all the practicing on paper and card paid off!!
