Thanks guys for positive replys I've been modeling for couple of years and this is my first tamiya build which I found a little tricky especially having a new baby boy in the house.
I will post finished pictures in a couple of days. This tiger will be 204 and I managed to get some original pictures of it and on the rear of tank on the right hand side of right exhaust is the cross keyed shield with oak leaves of the1st ss heavy panzer division 501.
Cheers lads here's two more pics :thumbup: :wave:
