Here are some pictures of my nearly finished first attempts at modding . Made it a sSS-PzAbt 101 posted to Normandy. There are a few mods I have made that were not on the late Tigers issued to the 101st but for the purists it could be one of the refits previous to the 101st Normandy deployment. ;)

Cheers folks! I think I have got the bug.
Looking at another project.
Just got to convince my wife that I need a second tank to keep the neighbours cats from my carp pond.

Got some good close ups of the fiddly bits and a full set of build photos.

Hey miketherock,

Question for ya, I see your updating the tow cable holders in behind the hatches, do you happen to have some actual tank photo close-ups of that part? By the way, good luck buddy with the wife, I've been bugging mine for a Panther with No Joy. Later dude.

I recon I got something with the cable clamps on. I cheated on all of them for a stronger design of my own. When the cables are in them you can hardly see the difference. If I was to have the cables loose I would have copied the original design more closely. I'll keep you posted.

It is a picture describing another feature and it is on a 1/8th scale metal tank but you can see the correct design albeit a bit blurred.
