Another Tiger...
Sorry, this kinda happened last week....
This is the mediocre Zvezda Tiger, upgraded with leftover Rye Field parts and whatever else my spares box yielded. I also turned an early Tiger into an 'early mid' Tiger because Zvezda kinda messed up their research and mixed up some production features. And also because I like the combination of old features like S-Mines and Feifel filters with the new cupola.
I'll finish this as a tank from sPzAbt 505 in late 1943:
Tracks are AFV Club and obviously not yet finished:

Re: Another Tiger...
No need to apologise Philipp. There is always time for a Tiger and this one looks great. Did you really do all that in a week?

Re: Another Tiger...
Thank you Vincent
Maybe it was two weeks? I don't quite remember the details
I'll try to finish my other Tiger(s) along with this one before I start the next

Thanks Mark!
I'm really trying to get a few builds finished before I end up building something new...

Re: Another Tiger...
Seems a shame to paint it, all the evidence of the great amount of work you have done will be covered. Maybe take some pics for the “Naked Armour” gallery we had/have.

Re: Another Tiger...
Good idea Adam. In any case I'll publish some of the unpainted photos along with the finished kit.
