Posted: Sun Jul 22, 2012 3:40 pm
Hi,
finally, aftr nearly seven and half months I arrived to end up (more or less!!, few adjustements are on going...) my first HL Tiger I early-mid. production.
I wanted to reproduce a Tiger, in german grey. I used three AK filters to wash the color and I had I realistic effect in german grey/german grey brown/german grey blue.
The tank as got everal special part, boght and auto bilded ones. Mantelet, cannon, muzzle, MG 34 and ammo, MG holder, smoke launchers, spare tracks and spare tracks holder, turret hatches, mine launchers, tow holders, tow cables, front spare tracks and spare tracks older, driver hatches, front MG34, ball and cover of the MG 34, all the tools, main traks and wheels, front fenders and side fenders, are all in metal and after market items.
I builded by myself the lateral small tow cable ans its holders, all the holders for the tools, the older for the estinguisher the pipes for the air filters and modified the rear part of the tank with more spare tracks.
I modified the smoke generator too and added some ballast to garanty stability in climbing.
The tank now, without all the other accessories and tools I want to add is 5,6 Kg.
I bought an high power battery foir that of 5.500 ma.
I really apreciate your comments and advices.
Soon, when I will add the other accessories and the Tank commander I will post new pics.
Cheers,
Gianfranco.
