I've wanted to see their tiger built up, see how it stacks up, in the world of tiger II tanks. Looks like they give you a decant gun breach to add. You like it ? Really like the Scissor binoculars, I've always caught crap just for what your doing, I think; small disclaimer "just my opinion" not speaking for anyone, that tigers had mounts for the scissors binoculars why can't use them? anyway very cool build,

That is looking very tasty Sir. The PE looks amazing. Super skills in putting all that tiny stuff together.

Can I ask a question? What are those blanking plates on the rear decking? I've never seen those before.

:cheers2:
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

That's looking really cool... I've never build an academy KT.
Looks like a decent kit so far.

Yes indeed and I think you've answered my question. I just hadn't seen them before.

Looking very nice indeed.

I've seen one of these up close and personal. My friend and I went to Belgium in 2011 and saw one of these abandoned at La Gleize. All the tools were gone and the gun barrel had been replaced but that thing was an absolute monster!
