AMX 10 RCR Tiger Model

Hi all
I haven't been much active on the forum lately. Fortunately I had enough time to complete this model by Tiger Model. Certainly not the best model I got recently but it is buildable provided that you've got enough putty in your toolbox. The details are quite nice, the instructions are well drawn ala Tamiya but can be obscure in some areas. I added some resin bits from a Blast set but I don't think the whole set is worth the money.
I used the rubber tires of the box. I filled the large basket and the bustle bins with "paper putty" (I don't know the right term) which is a kind of mashed paper.
It is painted with Tamiya paints. Flat black and 2 home made mixes for the French green and brown. Dusted with oils and pigments (North Africa dust and Airfield dust).

I have the AMX 10 RCR SEPAR in the stash which I will build with a crew I got for Father's day.

Very nice. I like the patchy dust effects.

Well done Olivier - It kinda looks like a Leopard 1A5 on wheels :lol:

Can I get some photos for the main page? ;)

Thanks for the comments.
I'll send pictures, probably this week-end. I also have a PzH2000 for you but it is too large for my photo tent. I have to find out a large enough background.

Hi all
I sent the full series of pictures to Philipp so you will soon be able to see them. I've just uploaded to my site the usual article about the build for those interested in this model.
Enjoy the visit.
