My first tank taigen tiger
Re: My first tank taigen tiger
Hi IronCross, if you don't want to be a purist or a rivet counter why don't you do a "What If" build this way you can let your imagination go wild and do whatever you want!
For example what if Germany hadn't lost the war and invaded the UK, what would the paintscheme or mods to the tank be, it would be completely your choice as who knows.

Turning OP's tank into a Mid would need more than a new cupola.

Which I said thank you, now I know as I am interested. I said he could say it was a field upgrade or that it had been replaced due to damage. Rivet counting is fun but so is using a little creative license.

Re: My first tank taigen tiger
hi ironcross, iff you want to keep the early version you could just add a mg to the mantlet inside theturret just connect the wires from it to the hull mg like I did, but I changed my one to a late version by making alterations to the turret & ad`d late commanders hatch as well as late steel wheels, one head light moved to hull centre & removed fifal system from hull rear & add`d mesh screens to rear hull top & moved arial to right of hull, tanker 242

Re: My first tank taigen tiger
I got my Tiger from Torro. Love it and the ammo crate it came in. Probably no good to you as it is an early version. Can't fault their service, I would recommend them.
