Many thanks guys.
Next part follow soon...

The original antenna container was together with the side skirts removed. Followed from a new construction as at my Kingtiger; some pictures…





Here closed…



…and here in open state.



Because the HL stowage box „Rommelkiste“ is not scale I’ve decided me to change she against a Tamiya one. One screw point in the old stowage box was lost and was newly built. Again a few pictures…



Old box was removed and the hole closed, thereafter were the new box glued at the turret.







The gun shield was not dismounted, but here a try to close some gaps.





The state until here…







It goes on with the new track cable…

Spectacular work sir that antenna holder is a work of art

The holders for my new track cable are already present; the front holder and the cable tensioner are still lack. Both parts arise already from a few brass and copper rests. The tensioner…



…and the front holder at his genesis.



Here is the position for the tensioner…



…and here for the front holder.



The sidewalls were drilled and both parts mounted.





Thereafter I’ve mounted my Tiger again complete…



…and found some additional things to change.



My commander can now something see through his periscopes with opened hatch.



Then were the track cable mounted; it was built from a 0,6 mm thick wire rope.



Here a closer view to the front holder…



…and here the tensioner device.



Now must again Zimmerit coat apply and a few weld lines are still lack too.

Greetings Hotte,

One of my favorite parts on the Tiger. Splendid work!!

Hotte you continue to make some of the most realistic pieces for your model. Something like the antenna tube and the detailed cable mounts is something I've never considered modifying but your work is truly inspiring

I would suggest adding some washes to pop out that detail especially with the zimm coat and pigments to get the camo to have less contrast. The build is amazing and I love your attention to detail!
