RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

I've been going through my boxes and found enough parts to build a hybrid Tiger. The main chassis and turret are Hen Pong with Tamiya electronics (T01). Spent about £50 on Evilbay for late Tiger bits and (after telling the missus I was doing DIY in the garage) managed to put together a half-decent version. The paint job looks over exposed in the photo's - it's much more matt in the flesh and came out quite good. I've also got another electronic unit in the chassis which I'm going to try-out tomorrow - photo's to follow. Few more bits to sort (numbers, skirts, rear-end, etc) - I was considering leaving the skirts/front mudguards off though, as it looks 'different' without - opinions ?

Let me know what you think:

Nice one, paint looks good. I geuss that in some circumstances the mud flaps and skirts would have been left off. Nice work.

looking good to me

now that is nice.... looks the part,heavy and worn and dusty an excellent job m8!

Looks great. Especially the 'dusty' look. Very effective.

Couple of shots with the transmitter-operated smoke unit in action:

BLOODY hell it's burning put it out  . Now that looks good and I like the mean and moody look of the Tiger with out any frills. To be honest I am going to go that way with mine if I ever get my others finnished. Good work and keep it up
