I will share my King Tiger build here.
I'm so happy to have a King Tiger that I've been hoping to own since 2013.
I have not yet determined what kind of historical vehicle to build and paint.
Because I plan to make bear metal first.
Whatever I do, my King Tiger will enjoy every step of the way because it will give me the pleasure of production.
I'm a little short of knowledge about tanks, but I hope you'll kindly understand. :D

My King Tiger arrived in Korea well just now.
I am going to pay customs and surtax this day and the kit will be shipped home Monday morning.
This weekend could be very boring because of waiting.
Nevertheless, it's a pleasure to welcome a long-awaited gift. :D

All five boxes of my king Tiger arrived safely just now.
My wife put more energy into my study than King Tiger.
My cats check the box.

The box I ordered contained many popcorn.
The King Tiger part is included as an appendix. :mrgreen:

I am looking at the books about King Tiger.
And I prepared additional M1.6 M2 0, M2.5, M3 hexagon bolts and nuts, referring to the picture in the booklet.

I'm doing image training by carefully looking at the assembly manual.
I am going to carry out this post-production when the optional pack arrives.
King Tiger has no reason to be in a hurry. :D

I've finally worked hard on my king tiger, which I've only kept as a kit, for three weeks after five years, to complete it in bare metal format.

Everyone who chose this year's new king tiger must have made a great choice, too.

Hello Youngjae
Well done with the KT build, it must be a record for building one of these.
I also have a unbuilt 2019 KT that I hope to build after my Chieftain.
Regards
Steve

I love this "big cat" in the raw unfinished steel look with it's photo etch highlights, it's real sharp. I might do the same when I start my kit, they look impressive unpainted.

The 2019 King Tiger takes a bit of work to produce, but most of the original kits are very sophisticated, so you didn't have to make big modifications. Here are a few more photos, and in the future, I'll add an option pack to finish the production.
I love this bare metal king Tiger.
