Initial Tiger I
Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2012 2:19 am
Hey guys, just some quick pics of my Leningrad (if it survived the Winter that is) Tiger I initial.
It started life as a Dunkelgelb Das Reich with full Aber but eventually got converted into an Initial. A couple of mods and a lot of removal of parts and tools.
First up was the driver's vision port, I added two stepped sights and removed the shovel clamps and sheet metal fenders.
Next, track guards, front wheel set and smoke dischargers were removed.
Here's the biggest change, the escape hatch was replaced with another gun port.
Rear deck lost the Storage bin, Exhaust shrouds, Feifels, breathing tubes, toolbox and mudflaps.
Closer shot of the front fender and lower hull.
Painted in Panzer Grey with white numbers, balkenkruz and mammoth all covered with a worn whitewash that I never really finished. It's been packed away for a while now until I recently picked up two battle systems and it's been doing heavy fighting almost every night in the backyard.
Let me know what you think.
