Update on the hard edge camoflage on the KingTiger,removed track's, tool's and tow ropes.
This has been very challenging part of the build but we are getting there got to tidy a few bit's up, then do some dot's and then some weathering
Regards Roger

Good work Dad, it's looking awesome!

Love Lewis, Arron & Chloe

i must agree i really like this colour scheme, great looking build, these paler tones suit the size, once the weathering is on it will burst into life, very nice! regards simon manning.

Thanks for the positive and nice comment's kid's :)and thank you also Simon, the colours look pale on the photo however they are a lot darker.

Regards
Roger

Just a few photo's of the King Tiger leaving the workshop, Fender's all painted but i like the look not fitted, so they are all bubble wrapped for safe keeping.
Just some weathering to do and a few bit's and bob's left,
Really pleased the way it's turned out.

Regards Roger

You've done a great job Roger, it really looks the part.

Thank's Paul for the nice comment it's been a long haul but it's been worth it and really pleased, cant wait to give a test run but it's stuck in the loft at the moment.

P.S How are you getting on with your new King Tiger (Freddie's)

Regards Roger

Okay I'll bite, How do you get a 200kg king tiger (built?) out of the loft? is it like Gibbs boat building in his cellar in NCIS??

Martin

Hi Martin,
Have got a winch rigged up, so hopefully shouldn't be to bad
Regards Roger

as i said before rodger i love the color scheme, a bit of splash here and there not over baked, a fine build, well done regards simon manning.

Hi Rog,

My KT is still under the bench waiting for me to get my act together with my tiger there's never enough time

Regards Roger

Hi all,
Finally managed to get the King Tiger down from the work shop (The Loft) had to strip down and reassemble.Two and a half years later it's up and running.
I would like to say many thanks to Gill and Mark for putting together a brilliant kit for the modeler and for having such a good after sales service, for sorting out any problem's etc ,
Also I would like to say thanks to the forum members on the comments and advice on the build

All the best Roger

P.S. Here is a link to a video for you to view, on the King Tiger on it's 1st run.

Hi Rog,

It looks the dogs kahunas it looks to drive well, but I am sure that is down to expert handling of the controls. Was Sophie driving
