A warm welcome to all the entrants in this GB & for everyone's assistance in making it possible - most especially Ian (papa695) who breathed life back into it :smiling3:

The GB will run throughout 2017, so there's plenty of time... Even for me!

Any Tiger B/King Tiger can be built in any scale.

Have fun & here's to a good GB!

Hi

What is Tiger B?

Don't buy trumpeter roller to apply zimmeritt with wood filler or liquid nails they are no good they block up and just skid about use a razor saw or tamiya combs

A Tamiya classic there Monica :smiling3: as Tommy said, zimmerit is a necessity for the Porsche turret version. Maybe an experiment with wood filler?
I must order a zemmerit tool this week for it,not sure which one to get,:confused:,I think the wood filler,did see a good youtube on that way,:rolleyes:

I just wanted to chip in & say their is another option Monica. You could try the zimmerit sheets from Tamiya - they do one for the Porsche turret KT.
Over here it retails for about £9, and while it's not as nice as something similar from ATAK, it's a lot easier than doing it yourself.

I will get a tool of some type and have a lot of practice with it,before starting on a tank,;):smiling3:

It certainly looks good on paper, not sure if mine will come with the metal barrel as I believe only the first batch had those.

I'm looking forward to trying my hand at German camo, and (a little bit) of rusting. :smiling3:

Hopefully with John's outstanding service it should be here tomorrow.

Nice Kit are you buiulding it OOB?

Most likely yes (although I will probably make my own tow cables).

This will only be my 5th model built (3rd AFV) so I am still learning the techniques.
