At this rate of detail I would expect a running scale Maybach engine next
Mr Hotte, you make a high level seem easy.

Dear Sir!
Gobsmackingly beautiful, just a quick question, I'd love one of the rear hatches, what's the site link?
Excellent stuff

You're welcome.
It's a pity that you don't have your own money...
...it was not my intention to bring you in a difficult situation...
...I'm curious how you will decide - a friendly wife or a nice hatch for a king tiger model?

Hi Roy,
thanks for your kind words. The hinges...
Suitable hinges for our tanks are often not to buy...
...and believe me; it looks harder than it is...
...try it out.
Use my report as instruction to build your own and show us your results.
