1/35 Tiger I Early Production Battle of Kharkov

[JSteinman]

Hey John, looking over the pics from your last Post I noticed the tow cable was beginning to untwist. I know they got tweeked quite a bit, but would they unravel like that or not? I'm no armor guru, but I was wonderin. Clarify if you plz

 

[Steve Ski]

Yep, that looks like an epic fail, thanks for clarification, John.

How's this one coming along John? I love the ginger bread building, you did a fantastic job on the Tiger and figures and the balance and composition are dead bang on!!!

Are you any further along with it?

Bob

Nope, haven't sat at the bench for a while. I learned long ago if I force it, I produce crap.

Great minds think alike!!!! Every time I go to my bench when I'm not in the mood, I always regret even sitting down. Everything I touch turns to crap!

Also happens when one is in the mood but is tired.

Yeah, that has happened to me often as well. Usually now, if I don't feel like doing anything on the bench; I'll just get up and go elsewhere.

Yeah that happens to me, too, when I'm not in the mood. Unfortunately it also often happens when I am!

View attachment 132764View attachment 132769 The last figure has arrived. He is another Evolution, I had to replace his rifle, but that was a piece of cake. I have also mocked up some AT gun emplacement logs - what do you think?

Hey John lovely dio. The figures are really, really nice. Some of the best I have seen and go perfectly with this dio.
You asked about the AT gun......I think it works but it is to close to the Tiger. If it was me I would place it further south of the tank , more towards the parallel side. This also gets it away a little from the figs. If you go towards the corner it will look to even.
On model Mojo - I hate it when it disappears but it always comes back. Mine is back at the moment so I feel for you
