Made the engine deck stuff myself.

Cupola and gunners sight from Taigen.

Zimmerit from Atak.

Would like some late Tiger sprocket covers but don’t want to have to buy the sprockets as well.

Managed to get some time on the Tiger today.

Side skirts split and fixed on, primed the rest of the parts and the new barrel. Ready for dunkel gelb.
