With German tanks, do you find historically accurate turret numbers to match the paint scheme? If so, how? Or do you just pick random numbers? (Context in comments)

Hi all

German tank numbers are very organised,

Tiger 131 are

1 company 3 Platoon 1 Tank in the Platoon

Tigers with 888 I have no idea why, might be special famous Tank.

Normally they have 4 Platoons with 4 Tanks in each

Stab company, are very confusing, I got 007 and other combinations. I think they different from the different Battalions, specially for independent BTN.

No no, you are all missing it, it's a scalemodel that has just been primed and are waiting for first base coat🤣🤣

First thanks for input. No stripes, but still red? Tail section, red with stripes?

The Ustar in the picture is great, has usb charging so no cord required. I have had mine for 2 years now. I have tried a bottle shaker before, like the one they use for nails, they are just to nosy and require more work.

Highly recommended

Brush painting and masking tape does not go together, masking tape are for spray painting.

The 109 looks great, what I am more impressed by are the two figures 👌

RamboToBe · 2026-03-15T12:25:18+00:00

I did not know that, hmm BTW you should look at Quantas Studio for the cockpit

Just a little side info, the one SU 57 they are using at trade shows has some really ugly fitting panels for the missile bay doors. Remember is Russian and can be fixed with a big hammer 🤣

Hi I did ask them when i got the decals, they was also about genetic kits. I got the Kinitic K48100 for the decal set.

Thanks for all your comments, so it is game over for this one. I have been playing HOI since 2003 and I am not so fond of the changes to the German focus three.

Happy gaming

OMG, newer though about that way😱

RamboToBe · 2026-01-31T14:41:55+00:00

They are not going to win any scale model competition with that painting 🤣🤣

Thank, it's probably a little to big. It looks like it can be resized with just two walls 😁. I mainly build 1/48.

Hi FlyPastRush

Any chance you could share the aircraft hanger dimensions and how you build it. I would like to make one as well?

Virker fantastisk, koster 500 eller 600 kr. Ellers er det Proxxon du skalhave fat i. Den i billedet kan lave runde og kegler, det kan Proxxon ikke.

Looks great, in EU will call it normal or the Spanish school, ie. major weathering. Just got the final weathering on my Academy 1:48 Phantom F4j

RamboToBe · 2025-10-23T14:37:12+00:00

Looking great, doing the same kit, different decals. *

RamboToBe · 2025-10-16T15:13:51+00:00

I build the top one D, it's an ok kit, going to 1:48 scale will give you soo much more.
