There is some good stuff from ECA. But the cost can be prohibitive to the UK.
I have a couple of parts ordered (I think) from ECA. I know it takes a long time for them to arrive but I can't remember from the last order if he actually confirms that the order has been received or whether one day they just show up.

Ah yes the natural weathering. It normally results in parts flying off and that is why I only use photo etch on places like the turret and top of the hull. Even the rear plate's stuff gets knocked off in my experience especially the mud flaps :haha:.

That sucks but nice video. Good to see Tigers operating in natural environments. Good driving skills as well.

Yes ECA does have cool stuff.

Panzermech give John a call if it's been awhile. I had made an order in the fall last year and seemed to take longer than expected. I called and he straightened it out with no issues. I even got it before Christmas and all was good in the hood.

PM Me for John's phone number. I'm not sure if he wants it plastered all over the internet. He was super cool and responsive to deal with, he even sent me some extra goodies. He's an active enthusiast as well but I'm sure you knew that.
