Yes, Majordisastor. It's an all metal -1/16th scale tiger I.
I begun to metalize my tiger I 381# from sep, 2009. After 4 months hard work, it becomes a half metal-hull half plastic tank. And I thought I could make it all metal. Here comes tiger I 323#, but still have lots of details to solve. I'm very glade you like it.

Hi Aero- Mate,
Very interesting idea to create a metal tiger - how did you it start off, and do you make the parts yourself or source them from a supplier?

Hi, majordisastor
Thanks for your concern. I have designed it and now ask factories to machine parts one by one. It should become a hot topic later..
