King Tiger and crew

[Luc Klinkers]

This is my current project. A Dragon Tiger II, some crew members and two grenadiers. Adapting figures correctly to a vehicle is a complete new challenge.
The Tiger II will be built straight from the box, with minor details added. The vertical armor plates received some structure and some wel seams were added.
The figures are built up from epoxy. The green stuff is Aves apoxy; great stuff!!

Some progress and slight changes. The tank commanders cap is replaced. The previous one (from TAHK) just wasn't right. The grenadier, standing on the tank received a head from the Dragon range.

Some gear is made from lead foil and copper wire.

 

[Iron Mike]

Nicely done!

The grenadier in progress. The plastic parts are from Dragon. The ammo pouches lack sharp detail. Next time I will use other ones..
Notice the angle of the shoulder and the tilt of the head. This adds drama to the whole scene.
