Regards,
 
One day I will tank.

I actually own a Tiger I kit, I don't know if it will ever get finished.

Those tracks look narsty, but from what I understand, no one uses kit tracks anyway.
 
Friul tracks are really nice, white metal and linked they look totally natural with weighted sag. But there's some who can nail the kit tracks like no one's business...I ain't one. :soldier
 
Cool Saul, thanks. Just a question, how does it match up to the Dragon offerings? It looks kind of like the turret is symmetrical rather than asymmetrical to my eyes. Thanks in advance.

Again, ook at all that slide molding! Even the tow cable ends are recessed- very convenient. Ah, the poor Tiger has been so thoroughly dissected- but that gives us better and better kits! My only experience has been the ancient Tamiya offering- this kit is light years ahead. Thanks, Saul!
