Good Afternoon,
I had been wondering what this metal Tiger 1 looked like close up. It is really benefiting from your use of the brass accessories. Your patience and skills are top drawer. I'm looking forward to seeing your work progress on this completely metal tank.
regards,
Painless Wolf

Great Looking tank.... how much does it weigh? I can't imagine working on a METAL version model... I've seen them but passed mostly because of the difficulties in modifying them..

You do have a handle on the techniques... is this your first METAL tank?
