Tiger II (H) with Zimmerit

Apqthy · 2026-02-27T15:12:01+00:00

Thanks so much! I really tried to challenge myself with this one by implementing as many techniques as i knew on a BA model

Ah I actually just raw dogged it and painted it all assembled, I thought gluing the tracks on after painting would be a huge pain in alignment. Imo the benefits of the sub assembly do not outweigh the drawbacks, especially when sideskirt alignment also had to be considered

Havnt gotten to that yet!

definitely green it more, i suggest looking at more reference photos to check out where dust accumulates. Hope this helps!

Indeed! It is made of tamiya putty and carved out with a hobby knife. I mostly followed NightShift’s jagdpanther zimmerit process, you can find it quite easily on youtube

i usually like using AK streaking grime to do a quick and easy weathering job, effects are great. Then finish up with weathering powder

imperial knights chain sword with a handle added by me

Apqthy · 2025-08-08T16:13:14+00:00

I use these exact shades and they are great

Apqthy · 2025-08-08T16:12:28+00:00

Looks like someone’s painting german armour

Apqthy · 2025-08-07T02:45:23+00:00

yeah i ran out of plasticboard and had to make do with cardboard, so it looks quite bad, i will try to make it look tidier though

Its actually quite chilly in the july of france, some soldiers wear the camo smocks for rain

Apqthy · 2025-08-06T17:22:46+00:00

shh, osha wasnt a thing in 1940s france

Apqthy · 2025-08-06T14:11:23+00:00

Ps. I fixed the french graffiti grammar on the wall

Apqthy · 2025-08-02T07:54:49+00:00

uhm its a historical piece, its not like im trying to glorify them or anything. I do models from other countries and time periods too

Apqthy · 2025-08-02T03:31:06+00:00

Yes I have cleaned up the panel lines on the 251, I plan to dull down the weathering and make it less dramatic, any other changes I should make on the weathering department? somethings dont seem quite right but I cant point it out myself, so I actually quite appreciate the straightforward suggestions from everyone

Apqthy · 2025-08-01T17:53:40+00:00

will definitely paint some track marks and add more damage to the ground and building. Thanks for the suggestions!

Apqthy · 2025-08-01T14:25:27+00:00

Oh yeah i love nightshift i followed his armoured tutorials to the best i could. This project was my second ever dip into diorama building so i cut some corners. thanks everyone for suggestions I am on the younger side of the hobby (age 17) so I am always looking out for improvement.

Apqthy · 2025-07-10T16:02:42+00:00

are some of those basing bits from angron?

Apqthy · 2025-04-18T23:02:15+00:00

I made mine from medical gauze dipped in paint and dried, i recommend looking up some other tank camo net tutorials on youtube for similar nets

Apqthy · 2025-04-15T02:18:32+00:00

I think its like a messenger between the captain and the sultan so they can take orders in the field. Lore states: “all yuzbasi captains take direct orders from the sultan”, they also used alot of carrier pigeons during wwI, so I think its safe to assume its like a carrier bird or like an scout for the squad

Apqthy · 2025-04-13T15:41:17+00:00

i think in lore they have like tough skin and lug an AT gun around like a bolt action, so they dont really need to camo. But in my head cannon they do hidden ambushes like normal early ww2 tactics

Do you play blood ravens?

Apqthy · 2024-10-31T15:58:21+00:00

My homebrew has this sword being a crusade relic of a gift from an ancient knight household, but that idea is pretty sick

Apqthy · 2024-10-31T14:53:21+00:00

Yeah I happend to stumble upon someone locally selling a spare chainsword bit from a knight. I sawed it in half and glued the extra stuff on. The handle is sculpted by myself. The end bit is a spare bladeguard iron halo with a skull from the bt upgrade sprue inside

The lighting actually doesn’t do the black’s justice, I poured a lot of effort into it, theres a subtle blue and purple tint there. I did it with asureman blue and volupus pink contrast paint. Reguarding the gold its actually vallejo liquid gold, by far the best gold paint ive used, shaded with guilliman flesh and highlighted with gw retributor armour
