Good onya Mr Newboy, a superb example of an early Tiger & well worthy winner.

Thanks to the voters that took time to make a choice, and to the flamboyant Mr Gunner for running & looking after this months comp

Thank you Mr Bix, stop it, you're too kind

If you carry on like this, people will start to talk

Congratulations! Jon!
Excellent Tiger! Extreme example of the Big Cat! All the models entered show what effective weathering can do. Winners all.

Congratulations to the winner.

I hesitated between yours and an another model and I voted for the other model. But yours is trully a nice model!

This was a close one! I congratulate both of you! Thank you for entering: for me the fun is in seeing the great work you do.
Jnewboy: that is the dustiest dust! And the tracks are perfectly matched in packed dirt.
Herman Bix: the B&W photos are a great idea! And those figures work so well!

Congratulations on a mighty fine Tiger. Superb weathering skills and prototype research. Both entries are top notch by any standard!

WOW! Thanks everyone! On my tanks I focus on their appearance almost exclusively. That may work great for the camera but I know that the internal RC workings are almost always stock. I do very little driving time on my tanks and I started on these tanks as a way to develop a large scale model collection. I spent my youth building 1/35 armor and 1/48 & 1/32 aircraft. I was always amazed at looking at the size of the 1/16 Tamyia boxes and wanting to build a tank that big! Eventually I could afford one and then another but the hobby became expensive and so I would sell my work to buy more and supplies. Hundreds of models later and here I am. Since this Tiger I have finished a KV-1 and a KingTiger, Ill try to get pics in the show off soon.

Great Job Herman Bix! I have done one of those Matorro Jagdtigers and they are not easy!

Thanks Everyone!

Now in the Winners Gallery.
