Hi Tom,

Great job. I have watched the build coming together and the end result is a great looking initial Tiger. Love it :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :D

Dare I say perfect ? To bad - said.
My favorite perfect bit - exhaust finish.
Sensational standard Mr Hugill

Tom,
Top drawer all the way. ;o) I really like the weathering details like paint chipping and scraping on wear areas of the parts as well as all the tiny clasp work on the fire extinguisher, tools, et al. A beautiful, initial Tiger 1. Your commander is first rate as well.
regards,
painless

Hi tom, that is one nice tiger 1. The weathering is the best ive seen, the detail level is first rate, all in all a superb piece of modelling, and i love the commander the detail on him even down to the muscle tone in the arms is amazing. Good job sir. :clap: :clap:
