I used a bic lighter to put some heat on the fenders.
I used the asiatam 3:1's.

Thanks alot guys! I wanted to make this thing durable and realistic. I am happy with the ooutcome of this Tiger and most definitely plan to do a Tamiya kit soon. I am hoping to modl a Sherman after the one in the aaf tank museum with the plow on it. I read up on the history of that particular tank and I also found that no one makes the low in 1/16 scale for these things...it has to be scratch built. That is going to be difficult for me to do...but fun.

Well guys I finally got it sorted out and have the DBC and Asiatam recoil working. Here's a vid of the test run. Sorry if the quality isn't the best. I'll try to get some outdoor stuff soon! Let me know what you think!
