Good Afternoon!
First Post of Part Two of the once 'Winter' Dual Build. The Prototype Production Turret King Tiger has had the Battery taken out and is posing in the Spot where the new King Tiger was sitting in the Tank Room. I put a charged 7.4 L-ion battery in the new Tank and tested it again after a year + wait. Everything worked perfectly, Sound, Recoil, BB Fire, Smoker, it all worked. Here are a few pics of both Tanks side by side to start out the new Build Thread.
regards,
Painless

If anyone needs it, here is the link to PainlessWolf's original "Winter" build: viewtopic.php?t=34867&hilit=Winter. It's full of good ideas.

My KöTi‘s are all in the out of the box camo.
Just added the Hinterhalt Tarnung, a slight weathering and in the end a wash with AK300.
For me, they‘re good enough this way!
BTW, the Tamiya Nato Green came very close to the HL green on these Tigers.
