Tiger 1 with 105mm Gun!!

Hoho, who says its impossible.

All thanks to MK Modellbau for customising it for me!! Its really a fanstastic job. It just fit into the existing turret w/o any problem. There diamater of the barrel is just right so no free play at all. He even bore through the entire barrel so I could lay cables in the the barrel for the muzzle flash unit.

Best of all! He didn't even charge me extra. He said he could customise from an existing L68 barrel so he just ask me to order that barrel online and he will do the rest for me. Great job!! Thanks again!!

The only single minor issue (due to my fault) is the resin muzzle brake. I ordered the type 2 muzzle brake which comes with 2 halves. I am a newbie so its impossible for me to clean up the muzzle brake to make it look like single piece. So now just going back to ask if he offers a custom metal muzzle brake. I also just saw the type 1 which looks alot easier to clean up.

I wonder whether this is likely to spawn feelings of 'panzer-envy' ? :lolno:
