Heavy Metal Kingtiger (KT) by Torro Part 12

Post by hotte8487 »

I need a crew for this Tank, every tank is nothing without crew. I've chosen these nice boys by Verlinden but used for my KT only two; a tank commander and a load gunner. In contrast to this picture, they’ll become the classical black uniforms and weapons color in pink, so to speak, the men in black.

Hi men,
cordial thanks for your nice comments. But I'm also a little bit proud of myself, finally it is only my second tank model.
I'll make a last report of my Kingtiger, with fewer text and for that more detailed pics; may be helpful for one or the other of you. :wave:
@ Jussek: I wish you all the best on your long way and if you have any questions can you ask me and naturally - the forum. :problem:
