hi guys
awhile ago i bought off a friend a full interior detail academy early Tiger 1, i decided straight away too do a version of "131" from bovvy, a good excuse to go to bovvy i thought
so armed with my camera i went and took a rake of photos of "131". the model its self is a very detailed model and fun to build, the only thing i have added is a set of fruilmodel metal tracks, the detail on these in 1/35 is breathtaking, hollow guide horns, closed pins etc, i have detailed it as close as i could to 131 at bovvy, the camo is as near to accurate as i could get, the upper hull and the top of the turret is guess work as i couldnt get any photos of them places, still it was fun making her, i will post the photos of her to save boring you with waffle, as they say, "a picture paints a thousand words"

Looks like a fun project to me,and hope others with the smaller scale tanks post their pictures.I have seen some great collections of static models that pictures were posted on another forum,and these are interresting models to see.There is a lot of guys who have these type model collections,and I hope they take advantage of this area building and posting pictures.

Great job to work on and get so much detail on a 1/35 model, i especially like all the battle damage and it looks spot on with the 131, so when are we going to see a 1/16 131 with the same exterior detail

thanks guys for the comments, these 1/35 tanks are a bit fiddely to work on, but huge fun to to, i will post my dragon late Tiger soon.
kieth i made a 1/16 131 replica for a friend, which i now got back and am giving it to my niece for x-mas, will post a few pic's of her in a day or 2
