I've pretty much narrowed down my build to represent the 113. I've read these first Tigers didn't have the Feifel filters. Anyone got a pic of what the engine deck looked like before them? My scouring through google searches is on going, but after seeing Ian's info on this tank I should go to...

Thanks so much Ian! I don't have the book. This info sure clears things up 👍👌

Thanks for the Link, James...good stuff!👍👍 Reading through it I already have eliminated my build representing #223. As the parts supplied in the kit is not correct for that Tiger.

The "mud Tiger" pic is interesting. This tank has the smoke dischargers with the ones on the left side being coated in mud, if it is mud. Maybe the pic is a WIP on applying the camo? It is missing the mud guard, like in the other pics, but it's also missing the lights that can be seen in the...

Unboxing the kit. The turret of the Tiger compared to the 1/16 Renault FT. Yes, the Tiger was a big tank, but still...what a difference 20 yrs of design can make.

Yep! That works better for me anyway.

Added the bucket, a 3d print from Black Dog. Also, the grassy dio base I did bothered me so I tossed it. This one is a better look.

Looking at which Tiger to represent. I think the new unit number 113 painted over the faded old numbers on this one as well as the Mammoth insignia from the 502 Heavy Battalion looks interesting. Here is a decal sheet for that tank. I don't believe the paint color shown is right, though? I'll...

I'll be doing good to get the exterior done...

Pulled the trigger on Andy's 1/16 scale Tiger 1, Early. I debated the purchase, but I decided to do it for a few reasons... I've never built a model of the Tiger, I'm not getting any younger and I want to see just how big this model is.

Thanks Ian!

No, BUT... I knew there had to be a catch. She wanted me to build her a working doorway for a project she's working on...lol. Still have to make the pull hardware.

This was a Christmas gift from my Stepdaughter. I'm pretty impressed with how accurate and smooth cutting it is and it's a perfect size for my very limited workroom space. Turned the top right drawer of my workbench into the cutting station...don't even need to get out of my chair to use it👍...

Thanks James!

Thanks Paddy! I had to abandon the kit's decals and airbrush the markings on. Up close it makes a difference... especially when I'm not a great decal applicator to begin with 🙃

Thanks Saul!

Thanks Paddy!

Thanks Steve!

Saul sent me a Wiking cuff band for the commander, as well as a variety of other 1/16 scale patches. The band looks great. Thank you Saul!
