Couldn't wait any longer - pulled the hull out of the box (tissue box there for size comparism)  Now the fun starts working out what model Tiger 1 I want to emulate, where to mount the accessories, holding lugs, etc - will have to hand make these, measure and drill/glue onto hull  oh what fun

Thanks Tankboy - Zimmerit will be applied after all accessory mounting blocks, etc are fitted. P4Man - yep, gonna look real cool. NB: I unpacked everything, couldn't find the lifting hook for KT that Mike said he was going to ship. Just spent a couple of hours flicking through "The Modeller's Guide to the Tiger Tank" looking at the different variant's. RC Armory supplied three Turret Ring Guard components and it seems a shame to not use them, so my build will be based on the June 1944 release which amongst other features introduced the Turret Ring Guard. The level of detail included in he Modeller's Guide to the Tiger Tank is fantastic - it will really help me produce a vehicle accurate to this variant (or as accurate as I can build it). Straight up I have found out that the cleaning rods I made a while ago are a bit too long - they will all have to be reduced to the correct length ::) |
