Another excellent Tiger.

I love the subtle weathering, just enough to bring life to the parts.

Adrian.

Thanks to Dale for posting the pic's.Couldn't find out who crewed this vehicle , but thought it was a good subject.There is a few pic's of this Tiger in the popular books and it seemed to me to be quite fresh from the factory when photographed.Weathering is done mainly with artists chalk, and of course 1 to 1 scale dirt as I enjoy running my tank.It is from the second batch of Tigers produced by Armortek and has the early sound module which has been superseded.The sound unit really only produces a constant engine rev after start up which after hearing he new KT sound is a little disappointing.Is it worth investing in the new system and does anyone know if it compatible with my tiger.Thanks for the kind comments , there is no other tiger owners within cooee of me so it is nice to have my tank accepted on the forum.
