Dragon’s Intial Tiger 3 in 1. Is that an early time? Would Karaya’s Tiger 1 early treacxks go to that one?
Yes, that was the very first one out there. No mudguards, sideskirts, and goofy looking storage bins.
I’ve seen the DML Initial being sold with those tracks on ebay, so my guess is that they would fit.
Thx tigerman.
Good luck building your Tiger. Please post pictures once completed with it.

To add on to this, would MM Panzer Gray be the correct color or would gunship grey be better. The panzer grey appears to dark. The gunship grey is a tad lighter and might fit the ‘scale color’ effect better. Thanks
IMHO, on the color question, it would really depend on how you plan to weather the final product. Personally, if you’re going for a minimal amount of wear and tear, I would choose the lighter gray. Remember that it didn’t take very long for this gray finish to become transformed into a “dirt” color across the vehicle, with the exception of the extreme upper hull and turret.
If you were to go with the darker color, perhaps you could apply pigments or pastels to “soften” the look as you wished. I don’t think you can be “incorrect” on this one.

I used MM grey on my kitty, worked out fine I think…
the pic is below… same DML 3in1
Actually, I used two different types of Panzer Greys by Model Master… The Turret was painted in oil based spray bomb thinggy lol… and the hull was airbrushed with the acrylic version. This goes along with what Crockett said about the turret being darker than the hull… The lighter grey pastels made a difference on the hull too, where I didn’t really apply it to the turret…
