I knew I had seen this somewhere, but could not think where. Found it again this morning whilst looking for something else. ;)

I know you might not be interested as the seller is in Germany, but he is reliable and I can recommend him. If there were other bits you wanted from him I guess the postage situation would be better. You may be able to find them somewhere else. :D :D

Anyway hope this helps you out :D

OMG Thankyou so much. ive searched on this site before but not been looking at the time for these particular parts.

No problem Richy. RCTank.de also have the other aerial type too. I used the ABER 2m ones on both of my Tiger Is.

I like how your Tiger is coming along by the way. The aerial stowage looks good, great tip from ALPHA their on using a telescopic antenna. :thumbup:

I will take a look now... I did want working metal front and rear mud fenders that hinge up and the side parts move too but I should of thought of this before I got the tiger sprayed lol.... maybe if I do another I will add all the parts to make it look real :thumbup:

thanks for the kind words on my tank. im not sure how far to take it now lol, it looks good from my point of view although im sure there are a lot of crtitcs staying silent as not to upset the newbie :haha: .

yes Alphas idea worked a treat, Again it would of been nice to get a fully working one but it looks good and im happy with at the mo.

im really liking sovs build the detail he is going to is amazing eps the really small live rounds..

Have you got a link to your tiger build so I can take a look and gain more interesting tips ;)

The third antenna position is on the left side of the tank and it's unused. Command Tigers always had a normal antenna base on the left side, as well as the turret roof.

Thanks David.

I will juts stick to the 2 as shown in your post earlier :thumbup:

Here you go Richy,

viewtopic.php?f=33&t=12944

I have just put up a few more pics as I have just changed the colour of the tracks. I didn't do a build thread for either of the Tigers I have, and this thread was started for the Early Tiger, but it has pics of the late as well and the convoy lights ALPHA mentioned too.
This is the show off thread for the Late Tiger.

viewtopic.php?f=33&t=12781

I think the only way to get fully working front and rear fenders would be to go the Photo Etch route. The Voyager sets are really great value, and I would definitely invest in their mid Tiger upper deck set as it has lots of goodies in it. The drawback to PE fenders would be that they are a little more fragile and prone to breakage. I have cast metal rear fenders from An-bri-RC-modellbau. I bought mine from there as they have a replacement metal hinge as well.

I would not worry too much about any critics out there the main thing is you are having fun.
