Schwere Panzer-Abteilung 505 Konigstiger (1 Viewer)

[Mitch]

Guys...

Here are a few Pics of a converted and repainted K&C battle of the bulge KT. I removed the skirts and, applied a coat of zimmerit to the set. The distinctive charging knight belonging to 505 has been applied to the turret which was bereft of zimm.

Nice Konigstiger this is and, IMO the best released in the hobby. An enjoyable repaint and conversion

Mitch, that is AWSOME!!!!. The zimmermitt you applied is outstanding and nice paint job,
well done {bravo}}

By the way Mitch, what is the symbol you painted on the turret ?

 

[Mitch]

Thanks for the comments.

its the symbol that the 505 heavy tank battalion used on their Tigers A charging knight. there were different colours used between the different Kompanies. I don't paint these now as Archer do some fantastic dry transfers which, saves lots of time

Mitch, This is one of several repaints in which you removed all of the side skirts. Any reason in particular ^&confuse
Nice Zimmeritt job.

Panzerace...

I am asked to do so by collectors as these are commisions. I think also, that this often makes an AFV look better, not always but, more often than not. I usually strip down a set when it comes if zimm is required. In this case I removed the exhausts, jack etc from the rear of the AFV but, have not put the making of pics up yet

I like the battle damaged look

 

[Mitch]

Neil..

Cheers mate. I prefer doing the battle worn look rather than the straight from the factory look, more interesting

I agree but the biggest reason I like the vehicles without skirts is that the skirts ruin the lines of the rather graceful tanks like the Panther, Jagdpanther, or King Tiger. These vehicles just look better without the skirts. -- Al
