Contents with add-on detail.
Add-on detail is the Chuanyu Model Ship, kit CYT027. This detail provides a wooden surface for the railcar and a turned barrel for the Tiger I tank.

Track base.
I plan to marry these with the track base from the Kriegslokomotive BR 52.

Note the very thin step rails that go on the rail car along with the tie down hooks. I was able to break the step rails before getting them off the spru and then again after, so be careful.

Sub assemblies. I choose to paint the railcar a red rust vs. the German Grey. I used RichArt Acryology Red Oxide over Vallejo Black primer.
The other sub assemblies are German Grey and Dark Grey over Black primer.

Tiger Tank primed and base finish.
Given the metal barrel from the Chuanyu Model Ship, kit CYT027 detail kit, I used the MrMetal Primer-R before the overall Vallejo German Dark Yellow (73.604) finish.
Base primer was Vallejo Black (74.602).

Tiger Tank camo finish added using Vallejo German Red Brown (71.271). Additionally, I used Tamiya Black Panel Line Accent Color along with SMS Dark Brown Wash and some touches of Vallejo Light Rust Wash (74.505). Shown without added stowageitems.

Tiger Tank with storage items. I felt that given this tank was being transported somewhere, that the crew and support teams would be bringing gear with them.

Railcar, storage, and ramps, pre-finish.
Note I used the wood rail car deck from the Chuanyu Model Ship, kit CYT027 detail kit as is. This is a self-adhesive, goes on well.

Railcar with Tiger Tank, just to see how it would look. Again pre-finish.

Finished Tiger Tank and Railcar.
While hard to see, the railcar was weathered with Tamiya Black panel line, Vallejo Rust, dry brushed with steel. Trucks were treated the same, but you can't see them, nor can you see that they are steel where they touch the top of the rails.

Finished tank and railcar with ramps.
I have the ramps simply placed in place as they will be used later in a diorama, same for the tank and railcar.

Tank and railcar. Note the rails. I finished the rails and roadbed for this kit and the Kriegslokomotive BR 52 at the same time to ensure they look the same for the future diorama.
They were primed grey, then a brown wash, black wash, and down the center of track an oil wash. Rails themselves were given Vallejo rust on the sides, with steel on the tops.

Loading tank on railcar. Here you can see the side of the railcar and all the writing. The kit captures these in detail.
The decals come off very quickly, ~5 seconds and go on great, you have to act quickly.

Thought I'd give you a hint at what is to come with the combined kits for the coming diorama.

Album info

Goal to build this kit OOB and use as a part of a future diorama with the Kriegslokomotive BR 52 locomotive.
See my project/album for details on the build. You can find the Kriegslokomotive album @ German Kriegslokomotive BR 52 | Album by BigBill (1:72)

Additions included:
Bronco - WWII German 200L Fuel Drum Set #GB7020
The wood rail car deck from the Chuanyu Model Ship, kit CYT027 detail kit as is. This is a self-adhesive and goes on great. Included with the wood deck was a turned gun barrel for the Tiger Tank, which was used in place of the kit version.
