Hi The size of the dora at 1/6 scale is way bigger than most people think,when you look at the picture of it just look at the guys on it there 12 inches high and the tank next to it it also 1/6 scale KIng Tiger ,This model is massive.Look at the build photos and see the final ones where its outside and he is stood in front of it .I think One of the guys who built this also has a 1/1scale model of a 251halftrack.

Hi

The guy is a master craftsman, but the questions on my mind is a: Where do you keep a 1/2 Tiger tank and b: what can you do with it?

I am certainly struck with admiration (and a big bit of jealousy!!).
