Love your base

Rui S
Thank you Donald, the finished one is in the photo19

Tim Heimer
I love the detail work, just awesome!

Rui S
Thank you very much Timothy. It's on hold, because I thought in put some figurines in the tank and a horse rider or so in the trail next to it. I'm not very good in figurine faces... I've yet to try the oils on them😉

Donald Medley
You'll love working with oils, trust me

Fabian D.
Your solution for the Zimmerit is genious. Nice finish aswell.

Donald Medley
Very nice indeed

Rui S
Thank you very much for your kind words Fabian, and Donald... as I wrote the kit waited years for a Zimmerit solution... All my latest projects are missing the figurines hehe...

Tim Heimer
Hey I know the pain of not doing faces as well, but all we can do is learn from others and do what fits our liking

Rui S
Agree. I Think the most important is practice... A lot, with new technics. I'm confident that with oils it's going to be better...

Rui S
Some ad on photos. I thought to put some figurines on the side track but for now, I'm going to try a messenger...

Wesley De Braekeleir
Ubercool!!! Love your work sofare! Very beautiful camo pattern on the elefant! 😉

Rui S
Thank you very much for your nice comments, mates.
Much appreciated :
)

CaptGPF
Damn Rui, that camo pattern is wicked! The mud effects are also impressive!

Mr James
I agree with CaptGPF, also that tree is really good. What did you use as leaves Rui ?

Rui S
@ CaptGPF, Thank you for your comment. I hope you liked that Wicked 😄 😉 this Is an old project that is on hold as well as the photos. I hope to take better photos and complete it.
@ Mr James Thank you for your Nice words. I hope you also liked that Wicked 😄 The tree is a bonsai that had died, I cut some leaves because they were too big. If I remember correctly, I spread small wood shavings and other natural ones that I had in my vegetation stash on the ground.
Also, I thank the new likes. Apreciated

Mr James
Ah, its a Bonsai tree. No wonder it looks so good. 🙂

Rui S
I'm very happy to say that I've returned to my mancave this weekend after a to long hiatus.
So to start I preferred a lighter job, although painting horses is not, in my opinion, easy.
Let's see what this will give...

Alec K
Nice to see you back at the bench, and another shelf queen resurrected. Horse looks great imho 👍

Doubtingmango
Great job breathing life into an old kit, and I can't think of a better use for a dead bonsai tree! Looking forward to the finish!

gorby
Good to you back modelling Rui.
The horse looks great.

Rui S
@Alec, Thank you for your kind words and support. It is always great for me to receive such encouragement, even more so, when they come from a master modeler.
@Doubtingmango thx mate, I agree with you., but hey, I can only return to my bench on weekends, só it Will take some time to finish. For me the most important thing was getting my mojo back.
@Gorby, Thank you very much my friend, for your motivational words. They are always very important to me.
The horse will still improve, I hope. At least that's what I'll try to do without ruining all the work that has already been done 🤔 😉

CaptGPF
wow! you aren't horsing around (pun intended)! They look amazing!

Rui S
Thank you for your comment CaptGPF, Glad you like my hors ing 😄. Apreciated

Landlubber Mike
Nicely done!

Desert Marlin
Looks great! The coat should shimmer like a newly minted US penny. (Shiny Copper). I'll follow!!!

Ben M
I hate to be the first to inform you, that is not a tiger, nor is it an elephant, it is a horse.

Kim Branders
Rui, the horse looks amazing.

Rui S
@Landlubber Mike. Thank you for your comment. Glad you like this one
@Desert Marlin, I know whar you mean. I've been hesitating about highlights with a soft airbrush of satin black or satin varnish on the most exposed surfaces. I hadn't thought about copper. But yes, it will have to have some shine.
@Ben M, Hahaha. Thank you. Your comment with a triple meaning has made me laugh several times, but in my defense I can tell you that this horse It is known as having the strength of an elephant and bites like a tiger. That's why they nicknamed him tiger elephant. 😄
@Kim, thank you very much Mate for stoping bye and comment. Always apreciate your suport.

bughunter
I'm not really into tanks but that is a great looking horse 👍

Rui S
Wow, this is an unexpected comment. It's always great to receive a compliment from a Master. Thank you so much for stopping by and for those encouraging words. Appreciate it.

Ben M
Did you give the horse a dark wash around the tendons or post shade?

Rui S
Hi Ben, If i reacall corrctely, I gave a little bit of both, sarting with a black primer, overal coats with oils leaving those spots almost unpainted or with less coverage.

Angel Yovtshev
These horses were a nice surprise, Rui!

I'm currently fighting the harnesses of a two-horse team pulling a gun carriage(it's a hard fight- I can tell you!).
Your reins look splendid!

Cheers,
Angel

Oleg Bogolei

I've never built a Sd.Kfz.181 not sure where this stacks up on the big list of Tiger kits, but its the one I chose
