Thanks guys,
Here is another small update on progress on the King tiger.
Both the turret and hull are glued together,the the voyager fenders are next and the painting begins. :yipee
The parts below are going to be painted separately and then glued onto the hull once intricate detailing is done.
All the hatch's will be covered up with Tamiya tape before and painting begins.
At the moment I have left the barrel and sleeve unglued, they will be painted and detailed individually and then glued in place.

Apologies for the later reply, just had to get these fiddly etch fenders on.
The 3 front quarter fender brackets are not included in the etch set and had to be robbed from another etch set.
I could have scratch built the brackets but decided that it was easier and quick to put on from a back up Aber set.
Here are the next installment of images,

Hello again
Happy New Year
Here is the 95 percent completion of the Takom King tiger
There is still some further shipping with a combination of oils blended down with Mig's odourless thinner
The Tiger will have the rear engine deck off with the engine suspended in the air from the crane jib
The series of images are still WIP with some very minor detailing.
