Hello Simon,

wow, that's really fantastic !
Your KT will become an outstanding piece of art

cheers,

uwe

thanks all of you for the good feedback, tow ropes are not laying correctly, lots of parts need some adjustment, but having some photos posted gives me a different view of the build, something to do in long winter evenings, regards simon

Hi Simon,

Lovely build with outstanding paintwork and ditto Zimmerit. I´t a pity you didn´t bring this cat to Open day, perhaps next year or?

I´ve noticed one or two things, if you don´t mind me pointing out some areas for improvement;

-the end of the starter crank that engages the starter, looks like this on your model;




Here´s a photo from Rob Veenendaal´s Panzerbasic DVD showing what it should look like;




-I´ve also noticed that the wing nut lock for the jack block bracket is, on your model, on the left side of the jack block storage but should be on the right side - towards the right side.

Perhaps the last thing would be hard to fix now but I´m sure you can improve on the starter crank end.

thanks per for posting, i knew that phoning you would get you going, i like the building tips it makes more of the kit, keep the info coming its always interesting, best regards simon.

WOW!

thank you all for your interest, i don't know what i am trying to achieve on this build, just something different from green, brown, and sand color, i'll keep on with the paint till something develops, regards simon.

the porsche turret is a work of art, a complicated jigsaw, no wonder it was dropped after a short run, the real thing must have been very strong. well done mark it must have taken some working out, regards simon.

What can i say that already havent been said:).

STUNNING BEAUTY!!
Hat yet of again Simon, i actually have been thinking of doin a similar combat torn Tank.

Regards
Fredrik

Thanks Freddie for the post. glad to see your still online. iv made some slow progress on the cupola and on the rear hatch. many thanks regards simon manning

This is the 2nd King Tiger cupola i have done using Mike Stannards upgrade kit and making the most of the Armortek kit parts , Hatch lid and swing arm to fit and various small details. regards Simon Manning

Hi Simon,

Nice work on your King Tiger Cupola, I like the texture and well worn look about it.
I have one of Mike's upgrade cupola kits for my Panther G, when ever I get around to building that fab kit!

Cheers
Ian

i have been working on the turret fit and other parts but took a break to do some painting on the cupola and air vent, slow progress, regards simon.

Nice job Simon,
i like that kind of weathering
keep up the good work and see you on tankfest.

best regards Yves
