Well, I'm close to done with the putty profiling.
It will be good enough as is.
Once all the other plates and accessories get fitted, any glitches will be blended in. :shh:

Did a dry run with the roadwheel positions to see what it looks like.
More like a JT now I think !

A shame, but I understand.
A Torro is $800 large over here, and thats just not a price I am willing to pay regardless of the quality.

I added the flame cut marks to the plates just now, and its looking a lot better.
Still loads to do, the recoil and barrel system beckons.

Please keep us updated Herm, I Know these need altering but I can't even attempt to cut it, I'll only wreck it, so I'll give TORRO a ring

Did a double take then Spartan - for an instant I wondered who had a full size Jagdtiger in their back garden. :D
