Did you use the Schumo KT muzzlebrake?

[King Tigerman]

I did use the Schumo Muzzle Break as I purchased the Schumo 2 piece gun for that as well as the King Tiger

Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated.

I have done the same i've place the IR emitter in the barrel of my Sherman, and the reflective foil provided that you adhere to the inside of the barrel for the flash unit is approx 1" 25mm long so you can also place the flash behind the emitter and you do get a decent amount of flash when firing the main gun so in short you can place both in the barrel and all is good.

Hi King Tigerman,

well done, a very good looking JP.
Tamiya models are a good base to create a top tank model, currently I build a Tamiya Panther type G, a report above that will be come later...

Would you mind taking a close up of the hangers for the Aber Side Skirts, and how you did it ?

Hi maxmekker,

I am sorry that I haven't replied till now as we are part the way through shifting house.

I used the ABER Side Skirts on the Jagdpanther and the Panther G.

Bend the Brackets as per instructions, and be very careful by doing one side at a time.

With the mounting of the Brackets I used 6mm long screws with the nut that I think were either a 2 or 3mm.

The holes for the screws are already there, so do not make the holes any larger.

And I did use Locktite.

Just give me a little bit of time and I will check for you.
