Just casually dropping a Tiger ii like it's nothing!! :jd:

That looks epic, a bucket list build for me. Did you do a build thread?

Thank you. No I didn't do a build thread. Here is my modelling page. Just click the photos tab and the first album is of the build. Over 200 photos. https://www.facebook.com/StovesScaleModeling/

Thank you. 1/16 kits are fun. This was the 7th Trumpeter 1/16 kit I have done.

Thank you for the nice comment. Only problems I had were the engine is a really tight fit. The upper hull won't sit fully on the sides. A big gap on each side that I couldn't close. Thankfully the fenders hide them. The turret ammo racks are a pain in the butt. Two small connection points is all they have. I had to put a small piece of plastic under them to provide support.

Hey dude, that is a great job done there, a real authentic look just the right level of detail and nothing overdone (in my humble opinion). Thanks for the inspiration.
