Practice update
the tracks are mounted, it was hard but eventually all links are in place.
As you can see I painted the tracks .................. hate having the black hands

, and then find they're better aesthetically.

At the suggestion of Chris I have removed the Nahverteidigungswaffe and the media for cranes, both not present on the middle type

Cheers

Luca

Thancks for compliments, they are really apreciated expecially when they coming from a Big as Tim and Simon are.

For who want major informations about the tracks, they are setted now with 95 links, but the the tank is suspended on a wooden blocks, probably when it will go down almost one link, i think , should be removed

Winstone's Bosch headlamp is in position

and this is his jack block

working on the turret, i have more tilted the covers of the periscopes and have build the rear section

All pieces are not fixed yet because i'm waiting the periscopes from Stannard, probably the holes will be adapted.

The blank fire will be mounted on this tank, it should be easy remove the roof's turret, i have made a false weld all around the roof. The weld is not thick as should be because it must resist to the various "remove and put on"

The jack ton from Winstone is a masterpiece

The fire extinguisher from Armopax, altough made in resin is very well detailed

I have installed the grills

a front view with doors open

Another boring work: i have started the zimmeritt

Hi guys, the Tiger is almost finished, just some rewire because it hasn't the definitive Rc receiver and some minor details to do yet. Here some photos as promised to Dale.

The first three pics are for who have asked how arrange the electronics, hope you can enjoy the rest.

Hi Luca,
I like to see your Tiger 1's interior layout. Very informative! Thanks for sharing.
Did you install the front and rear upper deck supports?

Thanks!
