Hi all

Spent a few hours here and there and have been cracking on with building my new top deck.

So far aside from the 80 thou sheet it has cost me nothing as I so much in my spares boxes! The head light brackets were salvaged from the original and the clamps are made from photo etchfret. The little domes for the head light cables are made from BA screws filled with solder and then turned down on a dremmel.

great detail

Another quick update, just made these from some plastic strip and some 12b screws and nuts.


Thanks for looking

Jon

Great looking details so far!!!!

Did you use fuel line on the air cleaner tubes ?

Yes I did, thanks everyone for all the nice comments.

Not posted for a while as have been busy with some smaller models but this week got to spend some time on the tiger!

First off my solution to twin wheels to do this I needed 2 sets of standard wheels, I will hopefully the pictures explain





Have also finished all the tow cable clamps


And scratch built some mud guards from brass box section and sheet.


Have also added some metal sprockets and idlers with bearings and a metal suspension upgrade
Just need to sort the mg ball mount then its off to the paint shop!

hi, your doing a great job cant wait to see it finished. fantastic detail level. Nice one

I like what you've done with the hull top and the turret mount.

Good Morning,
Road wheel redo alone is a monster job. You are doing some great work here taking the basic HL Tiger 1 and doing it up right. Looking forward to the paint. Please keep up with pics. ;o)
