Percy's Tiger 1

Post by percy1510 »

Hi Guys
This is my first build in about 6 years but I have really enjoyed building it and pretty sure that I will be back building regularly again. I really fancy either a Sherman or a Panther next.
This one is the Taigen Tiger 1 kit. It is mostly metal. It has metal wheels/tracks/turret/gun/gears and loads more so as you can imagine it ways a ton!!
it has the IBU2 Pro board and Tarr smoker. It just needs some stowage and a coat of dullcote and I might have a go at painting up the tank commander figure. I will add a battle unit and all being well I plan to attend one of the meetings and give batteling a go
I am really pleased with the way it turned out and I would love to hear your comments good or bad
Thanks for looking and for the advice from members of this forum during the build

Thanks happytank. not sure where you might think there are freezer bag ties. If it you mean in the barrel? the ties are made from scale rope but I can see what you mean from the Photo

Yes I could go with the hessian colour to blend them in a bit
