Drawings of a tiger tank with dimensions made of cardboard. Paper model tank Tiger II H Sla.16

We offer to replenish the collection with another tank from the Second World War - scaled-down model of the Tiger II tank. If you glued previous models paper tanks, then the manufacture of the Tiger will not cause great difficulties.

Tank Tiger II- heavy tank german germany also known as the "King Tiger". This tank is considered the most powerful serial tank who took part in the fighting. The "Royal Tiger" was produced since 1944, in total about 500 tanks were manufactured. The tank was well protected by thick armor and, thanks to the 88 mm gun, it could hit all the tanks that fought on the side of Germany's opponents. However, the Tiger II was too heavy and had a weak engine, which reduced its maneuverability and reliability.

We glue the Tiger II tank from paper

In order for the model of the “Royal Tiger” to turn out to be durable, paper for printing scans must be used as thick as cardboard or photographic paper. You can also use Whatman sheets, which will have to be cut to fit A-4 Format sheets.
If possible, it is desirable to print diagrams of the details of the "Royal Tiger" tank on a color printer, then it will look more impressive.
Since the tank model has many details round shape, as well as those with holes, then in addition to scissors, you will have to use a clerical knife (when cutting out tank parts with a knife, be sure to use a special thick bedding so as not to scratch the table).
Do not rush to cut out all the details of the tank at once, this can lead to the fact that you can get confused or lose some of them. Therefore, after cutting out a few parts, glue them, and then move on to the next.
Taking into account the fact that the tank model will be made of thick paper, it is better to use glue for gluing, special for crafts from Moment.
Use a drawing ruler and not a writing ruler to make even bends. ballpoint pen(the pen should be held in the place where the bend should be).

paper model tank Royal Tiger (Konigstiger)- German heavy tank of the final period of World War II.

Materials and tools:

scissors, paper knife, drawing ruler;
tweezers;
brushes for glue and paint;
watercolor paints (or pencils), toothpicks;
transparent acrylic glue ("Moment", etc.);
for printing the model matte photo paper with a density of 170-180 g / m 2;
for small parts - 70-80 g / m 2.

Before assembling the part, read the drawings and instructions. Determine the location of each part and imagine its assembly;
make holes in the parts before cutting out the part itself;
cut out only the part(s) you need right now. Put unglued parts in a box, and unused sheets in a closed folder (as an option). When throwing garbage after work, carefully inspect the paper scraps;
for a better fold of the part, it is necessary to draw along the fold line under the ruler, pressing lightly with the blunt side of the knife or a toothpick so as not to damage the surface of the paper. It is better to do this from the wrong side of the part;
keep your fingers clean and be sure to use napkins to wipe your hands, because in the process your hands may get dirty;
before gluing, wind cylindrical parts on a round object of a suitable diameter, this will give them a shape;
before gluing, it is necessary to paint over the ends of the part. White trim lines spoil general form models. To paint the ends, use watercolor or gouache paints. Picking up desired color, apply them in a thin layer, then let the paint dry. It is better to forget about felt-tip pens;
don't rush pasting. First, cut out the part, paint over it from the end, wait for the paint to dry, assemble the part. Attach it to where it should be to make sure everything is done correctly. And then stick it on. Don't forget to let the glue dry.

A bit of history

German heavy tank Royal Tiger (Konigstiger)

Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf. B "Tiger II", "Tiger II", or "King Tiger" (literal translation of the German "Königstiger") - German heavy tank of the final period of World War II. It was mass-produced from March 1944 until the end of the war. A total of 489 tanks were produced.

It is, along with the Soviet IS-2, the most powerful serial tank of the Second World War, as well as the last serial heavy tank Nazi Germany. Thanks to a very powerful 88-mm cannon, he was able to effectively destroy any tanks of the anti-Hitler coalition with fire. Thick armor plates, located at large angles of inclination, provided the tank with very high protection against most anti-tank weapons of that time. However, high weight and insufficient engine power led to low driving performance and the overall low reliability of the Tiger II.

The competition is open: everyone is welcome, regardless of your qualifications in creating paper models.
One participant - one model. It is not allowed to submit several models of the same author to the competition - and models created by a group of people.
The model is assembled without significant modifications. Minor modifications, such as handrails or headlights, are allowed, but have little effect on the assessment of work (see below).
Models of the tank as part of dioramas or other artistic compositions are allowed to the competition, but this will have little effect on the assessment.
Models are graded based on their photos, so try to take high quality and beautiful photos.
Photo format: JPEG, minimum size 1024 pixels on any side, the maximum size is not limited (within reason).
Minimum set photos: 3 photos of the model assembly stages (for example, a tank without glued track rollers and hatches) and 2 photos of a fully assembled model, one of which clearly shows a strip of paper with a clearly written player's nickname.
Significant software processing of photographs is not allowed. Only cropping and color correction. In case of doubt, the jury reserves the right to demand from any participant the original raw photographs in the form in which they were taken, or to photograph the model again.

Publication of works:

It is necessary to publish photos of the assembly stages and the finished competitive model on your VKontakte page (there may be several publications). Posts must include the hashtag. #thunder_paper(to search for your job), as well as a game nickname War Thunder. Accepting works until July 10. The results of the competition as a separate news within two weeks after the end of the competition on the page official War Thunder group.

Evaluation of competitive works:

Judges included in the jury of the groupWar Thunder - paper models , evaluate each model independently of each other, grading it according to the photographs submitted by the author according to the following criteria (in descending order of significance for the final assessment):

The quality and correctness of the assembly of the model, its compliance appearance game prototype. It is better to tint the ends of paper parts - this improves the assessment.
The quality of the presentation of the model: the beauty and effectiveness of photographs. If you photograph a model against an unusual background (for example, against the backdrop of a military monument or a shelf of historical books), the score will increase slightly.
The presence of improvements, entourage and dioramas. Other things being equal, a stand with the name of the tank or a figure of a tanker sitting on the turret will make you a leader.
If you have been fond of paper modeling for a long time and you already have a assembled "King Tiger" in your collection, assemble its twin brother from the brochure "Steel generals" No. 3 and photograph both models of the "King Tiger" together. The jury awards 300 War Thunder Eagles for such a collective photo!

We continue to publish diagrams and sweeps of models and today we present to your attention model German tank Panther.

The Panther tank was the main tank of the German troops in World War II, which was opposed to the Soviet T-34 tank.

If you do not yet have a paper model of the T-34 tank, then see.

In 1941 German troops faced with an advantage Soviet tank T-34, which made the German command think about creating such a fast and light tank.

The design of the "Panther" was carried out by the best designers "Daimler Benz" and "MAN".

The first participation of the "Panther" in the fighting took place in 1943 under Kursk salient.

The Panther tank was the most light tank Wehrmacht, his older brothers were Tiger I and Tiger II.

We glue the tank "Panther" from paper

To make paper Panther tank model, first you need to print on the printer diagrams of all the parts on three sheets of A-4 format.

Paper for this, it is desirable to choose a dense type of thin cardboard.
Alternatively, take a piece of drawing paper, mark on it the size of several sheets of A-4 format and cut them out. Then, on these sheets, print out the tank detail diagrams.

When the diagrams are printed, you can start cutting out the details. We advise you to use sharp scissors, this will allow you to cut the details accurately.

At the last stage, we proceed to gluing the parts into large knots, from which it will be glued.

For gluing, you can use any glue, the main thing is to apply it strictly on the area that will be glued. Hold the areas to be glued for a while until the glue dries.
