Just for fun, I put the two Tigers together.

:thumbup: :thumbup: I love the resurgence of the numerous Tiger 1 builds this winter. I'm sure most people's first WW2 RC tank was/is either a Tiger 1 or a Sherman but it also seemed that familiarity bred a kind of I wouldn't say contempt but just a meh attitude and i was the same for quite awhile. Not sure who's Tiger build last fall sort of got the ball rolling but it's great to see. It is a very interesting tank to model and so many choices to build one up

All was good, until I put my arm in some dog mess. This also got on the tracks. Lovely. :poop: Wouldn’t mind, but we don’t have a dog. Be one of the doty Weegies, from the ‘Oliday Carravans at the back ‘o us.

Outside shots are the best but not without their hazards :D . Knock on wood I've never had the dog :poop: issue. Greater chance at the field of running over raccoon land mines

Very cool to see the early and late model. Wat brands made these? Looks like Hg and Taigen

The grey one is a mish mash of Tamiya, Hobby Boss, Taigen, and Heng Long. The camouflage one is Taigen.

Apparently, these photographs were not appreciated on one FB site. :crazy:

"doty Weegies": I have to look that one up on Dr. Google. Methinks it's two young Glaswegians! No? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8631360/
