Alan!
Props for the Dirty Look acquired by Panzers in the Field seeing Action! There is always other things to add but this KT hits the spot with just the right amount of Eye Candy!
regards,
Painless

Alan! Sir!
It does not need to be, my Friend. We all build our own tanks to suit us. Make sure that you are enjoying the Build for the Fun it inspires in you. ;0)
regards,

The thinned Vallejo Chocolate Brown worked out well! Good thinking! I noticed the switch on the back, instead of underneath as on the Torro/Taigen Tigers. Is that a HengLong Bengal Tiger? It certainly would be easier to get ones fingers on the switch.

thx mate
yep it is a Heng Long and is easy to reach
But the HL Tiger 1 is better as switch is under 1 of front hatches

And the T72 is on the rear plate right where the log needs to be
I have to use a paper clip to turn my T90 and Syrian T72 on & off.
Relocating the switch just was a choice of bad or baderer !!

On my HL Panther, the on/off switch was located in the radio operators hatch.
But as I added a figure into that hatch, the switch had to move for more clearence for the operator.
I relocated it in the right side stowage bin at the rear of the Panther.
Took the bottom out of the bin to use that switch.
