Fantastic fist go mate, please don’t be too hard on yourself, there’s plenty of them in the world happy to do that for you without your helping them !!! :haha:
Tiger 131 is a subject that has been examined for almost 80 years, so much is known about it.
I reckon you have produced a very good facsimile of the iconic machine.

A very bold, and ambitious beginning. This is an insidious, immersive hobby...and you're already showing the early symptoms of a potential lifelong addiction.. :lolno:
I took these pics of Tiger 131, back in 2016 (on one of my rare visits to the land of the Anglo-Saxons :D ). Hope they'll add to your burgeoning collection of images.

I found the lighting at Bovington- whilst soft and comforting (in contrast the essential theme of the Museum)- it wasn't all that conducive to smartphone photography. :problem:

Good work!

Agree, lose the green fluff on the side will look better.
