I prefer airplanes to armor, but that is a nicely done build.

1/18 Terry?! Damn that's gonna be huge if that's the case. I have the Panther and Sherman (Marines Pacific), and my brother's got the Tiger I, and boy are they large.

Good heavens no! Not 1/18th Cory. It's 1/35th, but there're three PzKfw IV's, two trucks, two Kublewagen, one SdKfz 223, a Horch field car, two motorcycles a halftrack and around 36 to 40 figures!
The original plan was for a permament display, in a glass case, at the Reception of the tank driving business I was involved with. It was going to be about 5 feet x 3 feet but, to allow it to fit 'somewhere' in my house, I need to reduce the overall dimensions! What's been stopping me is the time to make the ground work, as, apart from the terrain features, a small building and other such details, I have at least ten trees to make, in scale!
All the vehicles and figures are done, with only final bits to add when placed on the diorama.
Sorry Wayne, I nicked your space!

Nice pics of the nice Panzerkampfwagen VI model.
That's probably my favorite German word haha.
Wayne, it's so realisitc! I will be doing a similar scheme on my new Panther, how did you get the sand or dirt on the model? Dry brushing?

He most likely dusted it with Dunkelgelb and highlighted alittle more in the built up areas...

Bit of Light airbrushing as Dan said and a few different Coloured pastels...Grey, Brown and Black.
The challenge was to take a plain Grey scheme and improve on it....

Wayne you do have some serious talent my man. You have "the eye" for realism. And not all of that can be taught. Hats off to you my friend.
Cheers
Excellent Wayne! Both the model and the photography.
