Well Done, really excellent job on the detailing,especially the wheels as we all know they are difficult at best to paint and detail. Looks like the Eastern front winter,I would fight in your Tiger,or rather hide in your Tiger while the Russians tried to see who was killing them! >:<

Great job.. :thumbup:

Have you considered a decal set? I believe their is a guy on E-BAY making custom sets for this scale? I'll try to find a link,seems he does any unit or number combination and was reasonable.

I have that Tamiya Magazine and can I say you have done a mighty fine job of replicating the paint scheme of the Tiger in it. Very well done and I know how labour intensive it is to finish a model such as yours. Its not as easy as it seems. Great job :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
