thanks so muchJimster wrote:Great Tiger, Stian! I really like the canvas bow machine gun cover and excellent sound and weathering certainly enhances the tank. I wish I had a cool driving track like you have created.

Re: September Tiger1 Of The Month chat thread..
Thanks Jim,
I believe Erik at Imex told me that Taigen was going for a late 1944 Italian camo job. I don't know, but it does blend well with the Arkansas Ozarks. And yes the rattlers are out there.
Stian, love your Tiger and your track reminds me of one that my friends and I built in our teens to practice on with our motocross bikes. I think I even saw a double jump! We had a triple also, but once again I digress. Obviously, your Tiger driver has tons of skill and is an experienced warrior. The way he speedily and accurately maneuvered that beast around with nary a correction! Quite impressive.
Very cool, to see what everyone is running.
And Jim, where is "Miss Leningrad"?
Cheers,
Eric.

Re: September Tiger1 Of The Month chat thread..
Wow, so much talent here!
spongehoobtank82, very nice. As a fan of BMW's, I'm pretty sure your rear light is very close to Bavarian Blue and not so much Prussian Blue. I have been called color blind before though!
Rad, got to love the look of Faust.
Ah Jimster, there's "Miss Leningrad"! All back from her spa day and ready to rumble! Nice video editing, that water still really freaks me out!
Met5, love the rough and unapologetic look of your Tiger.
So much to see and notice, super cool!
Decisions, decisions, decisions!
Best to all,
Eric.

Re: September Tiger1 Of The Month chat thread..
Mick I must say you've outdone yourself this month. The competition is excellent and I expect it will drum up even more interest in future TOTM.
Hoping to see a Sherman of the month and so on every once in a while.
Excellent job

Re: September Tiger1 Of The Month chat thread..
That was difficult, I scrolled up and down several times and then voted for one...and it seems others share my view of what makes a Tiger look the part. Excellent idea for a TOTM, we should try something like this again in the future.

Ye Gods, that was difficult. I got down to a short list of 4 and was stuck. In the end I just picked one.

Thank you Carl and Rob.
I just think these Tiger1's usually get overlooked in the competition, or held back from entering. And we all know that the majority of forum members must own one.

Re: September Tiger1 Of The Month chat thread..
Just perusing the entries again,
c.rainford73, love the "white knuckles and wide eyed look" of your driver. It reminds me of trying to park my BMW E86, "man, where's the nose on this thing". She's a beast!
