King Tiger with Firing Cannon
My first tank (though I build model ships). Video clips and pics.
Great kit. Made mods, additions: remote working lights, smoke, black powder firing cannon, etc etc.

Genius i like your thinking on everything you have done to the KT, making everything accessable and easy to use and still having a great looking tank at the end, keep up the good work

Re: King Tiger with Firing Cannon
Exellent work on the KT you have thought of everything, What did you use for the firing cannon I have a hilti gun and thought about firing the blanks up the barrel but the kick back on the gun when you use it is too strong it would break the turret.
