Hi,

I would like just to share with you part of the upgrade work done on the upper hull of my early/mid Tiger.

Now I need to start the side fenders ABER.
I hope they will be not so difficult as the mud guard I already have done!!!!

Cheers,

I wish you a wonderfull WE!!!

Good Morning.
Those ABER parts are complicated in design but beautiful in execution. Great work! Keep the pics coming please.

Painless

Excellent work so far Gianfranco, looking forward to more.

Brilliant work!!! Love the detail!! Did you cast the wing nuts yourself ? Cheers Gary.

Thanks for the replies guys!
It's important for me to share the work done with people can "understand" and not thinking of me as a crazy guy spending hours to glue and mount so little part that is nearly difficult to see.

I used the dremel and spare resin part to do the nuts. There were metal ones in the kit ABER but was not possible for me to use (0.5 mm). I need microscope!!!
I just took some how the dimension and I used the dremel with spare resin parts I had.
It is easy for me to work resin that metal actully...
Just a little question for you. How do you think I can bend the side fenders ABER, without having greans in the folds??
Thanks, I will had new pics going on with the work...
PS.
I'm now trying to build by myself, only for the left side (in the right side I leave the space for the speaker and on the space of the two fans I would like to put, on the grid a fuel drum; saw few pics of Tiger carring spare fuel), the cooling system and the two cooling fans.
It is nearly over, I just realized that with the grid on the two bays they will be not really visible.
Anyway the work is nearly over and I will post also those pics..

Really thanks...

I appreciated.

Cheers,

Gianfranco.

Hi,
I just finished the parts described in my last post.
I would like to specify thta they are only simulacrum, not a model.
I tried to be as much I cuold in scale and both are "home made" with plasticard and telephone wires.
the aim is to cover the empty space below the grids on the left side of the tank.

Cheers,

Gianfranco.

Hi,
I had the time to go on on the side fenders Aber and I would like to share with you the job done.
I finished the MG bay and the particulars of the lights too.

Cheers,

Gianfranco.
