I've been planning this one for a few weeks and just got around to it last night.
Didn't want to do the usaul Bright Yellow and Red colors. Thought I would do something more modern. Ill be doing a few different Tiger Force repaints here soon. They will all be with more natural colors. I upgraded the tires to rubber ones from a John Deere tractor I found at Wal-Mart. Thanks to ltfalcon for the idea. The tires it comes with are crap. I have a step by step tutorial in this thread on how to change out the tires. 3rd post down. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ger-force.html Here is the finished TIGER V.A.M.P. Let me know what you think. Thanks TB

okay.......
here are some improvements you could make add a spare tire or cover that hole up(seriously it looks so incomplete) replace the hook with a smaller hook(like the one from the POC TK SS or 25th shippy)(the claw looks kinda goofy) lesser more stripes paint the red some other color so that it doesn't stick out Last edited by luigi; 04-01-2012 at 11:44 PM.. |

If you're going for flint's color pallet put some black stripes on it, For me when I thing Tiger whatever, my thoughts go to yellow & black! You went a different route, nothing wrong with it, but if your intent was a modern tiger force vehicle for 25th flint I could see him driving it into battle, with his lopsided grin!
