HELP finding posting of Super Detail Tamiya Tiger I

I remember seeing somewhere a posting for what IMO was a extraordinary Tamiya Tiger I build but can't find it. It was fantastically detailed and painted and I would like to book mark it for future reference.

TIA,
Barry

Though an excellent build it is not the one I am thinking about. If memory serves it was an early N. Africa Tiger. It had an awesome weathering job.

Part of the problem in scouring legacy threads..in fact, a large part... is that many of them are now often entirely devoid of images. :( All we see is that damned ransom demand from Photobucket... :thumbdown: It's their brand of Photographic terrorism. Or greed, of the Shkreli sort.. >:<
I do recall an interesting contribution a few years back, featuring a DAK Tiger 1 in an impressive desert diorama. You've set quite a challenge there. :think: Do you recall whether this was a Tamiya build thread, or just a a weathering thread. Does it seem fairly recent?

Guido Henn's Early Tamiya Tiger 1 build has some great details, although the thread itself only stretches to two pages.. Still worth a look :thumbup:

I did a Tunisian tiger a while back,I'm not sure it stands up to the lofty description though but it looked like this.

Tracked down your 'Tunisian Tiger 1 "Norbert" contribution, Tom, and guess what- yep.... Photobucket got there first.. :wtf:
