My current work in progress: Academy Tiger 1 early w/ interior

Hello!

I am new to this group and just wanted to share with the lot of you what I am currently working on. I am almost done with it, just waiting for some Tamiya brass shells to arrive in the mail before I continue.

Here’s a teaser:

Find my work in progress reports on the Tiger (three parts thread) here: http://www.wwiiscalemodels.com/cgi-wwii/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=80

Let me know what you think… :slight_smile:

great work Rainer Rohde and welcome to the forums

Welecome to the forum.
I was about to pick up this kit. I probably will eventually. I’ve yet to add a single Tiger to my collection, so one with a full interior would be very nice :slight_smile:

I took a look through the buildup you had posted. The kit looks spectacular. You did an amazing job!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

zokissima: This is my first Tiger, also! :wink:

Great Stuff!
Welcome to FSM Armor!
Glad to see more Tigers on the horizon, even here the Shermans outnumber us.

Looks great, I am hopeing to do that kit myself eventually. Welcome to the forum.

Rainer Rohde, Wow nice job! Enjoyed the progress pictures on the link. The kit looks interesting, i’ll have to check it out.

Very impressive work you have going with your Target, I mean Tiger.

Excellent looking Tiger.

Thanks! I am/was working on this kit. I hit kind of a stall, and this gave me some motivation to continue! The insight and proplem solving is exactly what I was looking for!

wonderful!!! now, just leave, before you become too obsessed with seeing 5 Big shiny red stars below your name-like the rest of us…
lol
wish I could do stuff on that magnitude!

Welcome to the forum. That’s one impressive work you got there.

A very nice looking Tiger you have going there!

Again, thanks for the warm welcome and praise… Quite a few fellow modelers here… !! :smiley:

I will keep you updated on the work-in-progress during the remaining stages!

Okay, you have my full attention! Looking good so far Rainer Rohde. Welcome to the the forums and the Dark Side.

Hey Rainer,

Welcome to the forum. That is an outstanding Tiger you have there. I really like the paint scheme you’ve got going. Did you use an airbrush with a mask, or just the airbrush? By the way, how’s Norman these days? That’s where my Alma Mater is. I sure miss my home state.
