Herr Carius would have pissed his pants laughing like I nearly did.

Great idea on turning the quick release upside down.
Especially smart if you are going to run mudguards.

Ingenious work on the quick-release bar Estnische, that's a beautiful way to rearrange it. I really like the idea of the Taigen system, but wasn't able to use it in my T-34 or SU-152 because it takes up so much damn space going through the hull. If I'd flipped it, I might have been able to work something out! Next time, I guess...

Not my idea I'm afraid. I pinched it from another Heng Long Tiger build.

Fiendish Johann is so obsessed with Hauptmann AmeriKa, that he has completely lost touch not only with reality; but also his chief mechanic :haha: :haha:

Apparently this is an image of Otto Carius's Tiger 1.
He isn't in the cupola as he was back in Germany recuperating from an injury.
Hope this pic can help in the final paint weathering stages.
Don't get your panties in a bunch , we still got hand weapons and the fifty!
