Agree, Robin. Outstanding!That Ambush camouflage is hard to go past. Brilliant. Robin.

I hope this isn't the finished War Park model, otherwise the camo is inaccurate.I thought one of those pictures posted was a new WP ambush paint scheme. One pic of a finished model clearly has the Figarti logo, but the other did not, so I thought it was WP because of the different turret number and also different coloration. Many are anxious to see WP's finished KT offering(s) and may have been "tricked" as well.
War Park weathering is consistently realistic.The weathering is also nicely done.
The first couple of shots look like something from a modern art museum!I hope this isn't the finished War Park model, otherwise the camo is inaccurate.
Indeed, from September 1944 onwards, the vast majority of KingTigers had a standardized camo scheme applied at the factory, the famous "ambush scheme".
The outline of the shapes varied slightly from one tank to another, but the overall pattern was strictly followed, sometime in "soft edge" but mainly in "hard edge".
IMHO, to date, JJD's model is the most successful.
I've attached some photos to illustrate what the reality was regarding this camo.
