Tiger 131 is a subject that has been examined for almost 80 years, so much is known about it.
I reckon you have produced a very good facsimile of the iconic machine.

Re: My first attempt ever at an r/c tank
A very bold, and ambitious beginning. This is an insidious, immersive hobby...and you're already showing the early symptoms of a potential lifelong addiction.. 
I took these pics of Tiger 131, back in 2016 (on one of my rare visits to the land of the Anglo-Saxons
). Hope they'll add to your burgeoning collection of images.
I found the lighting at Bovington- whilst soft and comforting (in contrast the essential theme of the Museum)- it wasn't all that conducive to smartphone photography.

Good work!
Agree, lose the green fluff on the side will look better.
