Winter Taigen Tiger 1

Post by tao »

Crazy methods that ended up getting it like this.. but fun along the way..this one has the acoustic smoker in it too, which
for me adds a lot to the overall action/impression. Will display on a wooden base with some sandbags and snow on the ground next. Just need to add some numbers, flash in barrel and that's it.

Wow. :clap: :clap: :clap: :thumbup:

I'd love to see video of that beauty in action. Is it IR? Tell me more about the acoustic smoker? Build it yourself or is it one of Normand's?

Thanks guys! It was the bb version so I ordered a new turret and ir gun and after trying to match the color- decided to
do the winter camo. It's set up using TBS and BARC (DBC-3) from Dan at Battle Armor. Built the acoustic smoker based on TARR smoker and Normands tutorial. My difference was I mounted it on top and can pop speaker out of cup to fill oil that way.
The pictures of internals and a video are under acoustic smoker. I will though shoot another video of this one and King TIger
using Acoustic TARR based smokers.

Great looking winter Tiger. A menacing looking "cat." Nice job.

Good catch on the barrel! I just noticed it will add something for a barrel :)
Just finishing KT in winter camo too.
