Calling this one finished, all had a protective matt coat and the flag and pennant added. There is a bucket and some chains to add but that is all.


So here she is, first time under her own power. But she also spies something on her first run...a bunker, is it derelict or does it have a nasty surprise?

Nice job Si, your Tiger looks much better now you've added your touches to it. As for that armed clock, take it out.

Right, the tank was finished but I was awaiting some accessories so, apart from maybe replacing the headlights at some point, she is all finished!


She has got her chains on, the obligatory bucket-painted in tropical, ropes, helmets-again in tropical, cloth roll, chock block wood, c-hooks attached to the back deck, 'Wasser' (water), long range tank attached to the rear deck side. I also added a large frying pan...well, the lads need something to fry up their Bratwurst :D

Great work Si there's one of these tigers in our house somewhere I might have a look for it now!


Let's "face"it that bunker gun looks good and I can see you had a great "time" doing it I hope the gunner in the tank has his trigger "fingers" ready. ;)

As you know, I finished this and then found some upgrade parts-being waiting for them to arrive and then fit.


Fitted: New headlamps with proper cover, armoured transmission plates-inner fronts, correct top hull vent (next to jacking block), aerial fitted in correct position and painted-old RC aerial position (rear engine middle) plugged up and painted, turret vision slits cut out. rear convoy light-painted in blue, front machine gun now has scale butterfly clamps at either side for the cover to fasten, hull periscopes fitted and a 2.4Ghz upgrade board so she now handles so much nicer with better sound.


So, here she is, finally finished!
