Hi simonm ,
The King Tiger looks great in the snow Loads of fun, great to see the 'track marks' that they leave behind !...Its amazing how much the snow seems to 'stick' to the tanks though, I guess that it is a scale thing, but you can see how it could have supposedly 'caught out' Panzer crews as snow or mud turned to ice overnight and jammed the tracks.

Great looking pics, looks fun. To help stop the snow from sticking, I leave my tank outside and let the tracks get as cold as the air temperature before running her about. Just a thought, works for me.
Well done simonm...

Thanks guys, the King tiger had been outside for about an hour before I managed to get out the the temperature had dropped to -4 by then, but I just had to have a go & that was one of the reasons snow built up on the tracks, although it wasnt to much & generally fell off when I stopped as it was quite fluffy.
Kye, this King tiger has the BB gun fitted although it didint work as well in the conditions but then neither did I, I just made sure everything was sealed underneath with tape first
Word of warning, when they thaw out it does rather upset the missus!!!!!
