Very impressive paint work on the King Tiger...
Following the link that was provided one guy on the forum said this .....
However, we don't forget that:
- at the end of the war the base color of KT was green and not red oxide;

Which is Very interesting indeed...

hello

thanks very much to you all for your kind comments :thumbup:

and as i said in my last post, here you are some more pics with better light, and with this post i mark this project as finished. :D

in some pics you will see my attempt to depict the Hinterhalt-Tarnung - Licht und Schatten camo at work, you know, it was intended to be of use under cover of trees, so the zillion spots of light crossing the foliage could me imitated... i will have to wait until i can do these pics on our club's scenery, so instead of my garden you can see real earth under the tracks ;D

Hi Jussek, did you do anything to stop the immense barrel wobble that the Torro KT is plagued with while operating any directional travel?

Ed, Painless, again, many many thaks for your comments! :{

Merlin,

mine do not wobble too much, but i have seen somewhere a guy who put a metal plate screwed on the rear bottom, inside the turret, this is supposed to add weight and counterbalance the long gun.

best regards
