Thank you very much for the vote of approval gents, means a lot.

Base kit is Dragon's Tiger I Initial 6600 with Spade Ace metal tracks, ET Model PE set, RB Model barrel and tow shackles. Here are some WIP photos

how did you find the spade ace metal tracks ? - i have a set but used Dragon DS for my Tiger 100.


Cheers,
Richard

Space Ace are nice, just some silly flash to clean up on.

Masterclub early tracks on the top and below them are a couple of Masterclub links (left side) next to Spade Ace links from the mirrored set

Incredible work; the finished product looks amazing! I love the winter camouflage All those tiny PE details really added so much detail to this beast

Good morning Gents,

Thank you so much for the thumbs up! This particular Tiger is possibly my favourite Tiger due to those bins and I am glad you like the end result.
Mind you, it was almost ruined when the hairspray started "eating" it's way through the base coat. I then realised that the HS I was using had alcohol and I use alcohol to thin my Gunze paints.

Now, I know! haha

Thank you Kev!

Fantastic work mate. Love the turret bins on the side. The Tiger also reminds me of a Centurion. Because of the turret bins I suppose.

Thank you! So far, that's the only Tiger we have photo evidence with those turret bins and in that essence, it is a unique beast

Great idea for a simple conversion project based on your research. I would love to make one in 1:72 scale. I´m not a scratch builder, but this should be feasible with some plastic cards. Brackets can easily be made from PE frets.

You could also get the PE set for it, I think ET model makes one with PE turret bins for this bad boy in 1/72nd

Hmmm. That´s a good idea. I might do that. Who are they from? Eduard?

@Bissyboat: "ET Model" is the brand for the PE set I was talking about

@Prodrigues: Thank you very much Paulo, glad you like it!
