Really superb build Mark! It needs turret numbers though!

Awesome details! The cupola and new rear bin are especially nice.

Best regards,

Added a figure and installing a mini video camera so I can run it while wearing video goggles...should be cool like being in the drivers seat :D last thing is to add numbers to turret as Bob suggested...I decided on the # just waiting on paint delivery

The Tiger 1 has asymmetry , the turret itself is asymmetrical . It was recently pointed out to me on one of the many scale modeling forums I visit that I installed the Feifel flexible tubing hold down bars wrong that they were at two completely different angles ! to which I replied was done on purpose ! A picture is worth a 1000 words. The black and white photo was taken shortly after Tiger 131 was captured

I must agree, this Tiger is a Masterclass of the vehicle, an owners photo gallery of the best completed models should be started on the Forum as before as a reference to show what can be achieved, regards simon manning.

With all of the new Tiger builds just being started, I thought this GREAT Tiger thread should be bumped and refreshed again.
Enjoy this great thread.

Enjoy the build.
