well, I think this is the last of my lot. Tamiya 1/35 Tiger I Finale production. I added a scratchbuilt interior, pieces from italeries tiger, some small scratched stuff, Scratchbuilt mudgaurds and Cavalier zim.

I made the dents in the plastic with a soldering iron.

heres a pic of it with the figs I am going to add. So many[xx(]

4 builds that I’ve seen today John, I wish I had your determination. I love Cavalier zim, sold on the stuff, even though the purists would say do it yourself. Keep us posted.

thanks guys.
The cavalier zim sure did make it easier. There were some pieces that were a little too short, mainly the turrets and the sides, but nothing some putty w/ zim wouldnt fix.

thanks guys! yes gringe cav zim.

I’m glaad some people injoyed the mud gaurds[:D] LOL [:D]They only took about an hour each for my first side. the second side only took about an hour all together, with an extra gaurd too.

for my camo I am going for a 3 tone red brown and dark green on dark yellow base. There will also be some branches on her. I am going to make one of the crewmen putting them one. The vehicle itself is going to be of 101SS.pz.abt. 3rd company platoon commander, 8th vehicle (#308), a vehicle with no real history to my knowledge. Dio setting is normandy, around June 13th near bocage.
