Wow, thanks for your replies guys. I look foreard to the "teach in".
I take it that the Tiger in the fotos is a 1/6 scale model.... it looks amazing. Where on earth do you keep one like that.....and do you get away with more than 1 of them?
I will get a supply of milliput and a sheet of plasticard to practice on.
Cheers .... Mike

Only the last picture is 1/6 the first two are my Tamiya, I did have two last year but sold one the boss didn't mind me having two as it keeps me from under her feet my modeling room is the garage I can work on my tanks and leave parts spread all over the work tops and they never get touched or have to be cleared away from little fingers

well you must be very proud of your work..........
I am seeing some amazing work on here. I have been making sailing craft for a few years.... most of it scratch built from hardwood.... but wood is quite easy to form and join. I discovered this aspect of rc modelling by accident and it has captured my immagination.
I am 60 this year and this new hobby is asking a lot of my skills learned many years ago at school. The wonderful workmanship photographed on this website has certainly stirred up the old grey matter..... and emptied the piggy bank for a while
I have a pz3 and the pile of pieces called Tiger,,,,, I am already wondering what to build or buy next... the king tiger looks a beast. I have lots of bits so I am wondering about a king tiger converted to HL electrics as seen on here somewhere.
Have fun..........Mike
