Re: Late tiger 1 before and after pics
Richy, It's a bit like owning a Motor cycle, I love looking at it almost as much as riding it. If you don't get pleasure from looking at your hard work what are you doing in this hobby? After all it is a pretty special partner who slaps you on the back and tells you how wonderful you are, at least not when it comes to Tank building!

I think I am about to upset someone

because in this picture they look ok

in these two not so much


looks like they are floating there
but in this one

it looks ok again... so it's probably an optical thing

I see what you mean at different angles. Ive since run a rounded end pencil lead along the zimm line to push it closer in so it doesn't look raised so much anymore also the pencil lead has given it some nice shading
