@Sal - Congrats!!! Looks great





Tore off the zim on the MG dome and added squadron green putty with the lionroar zim stamp. Drying now before final touch ups and I'll add a wire for front headlight.

This thread should answer some of your questions.
For Those New to Armorama Campaigns

It shows how to upload a picture to the Kitmaker photo gallery (either a campaign gallery or to your own member gallery). It also covers how to include a picture from the Kitmaker gallery to a forum message. Even further down the thread it explains how to include a picture from somewhere else on the Web into a forum message.

Some nice Tigers are coming along here, and glad to see a Tiger ausf B too

I continued on my African Tiger today, added the second front fender, made shallow impactdamage next to the mg ball mount. And I also decided to add some damage to the roadwheels too. Other than that, I attached the headlights, not on their usual spot on the African Tigers, but on the standard location since I'm going to build Tiger 243...

Hi guys - I made a hash of my previous King Tiger build (DML 6312) and decided to start over. Since it lines up with this campaign, I figured I jump aboard. I'll be using DML 6302 and Fruils to model an early production "Porsche" turreted vehicle.

Question: I struggled with Dragon's three-part tool clamps last time. Any thoughts on Griffon's clamps as a replacement? I've heard they're less fiddly than Dragon's or ABER's, but more detailed than Eduard's.

Graham - Now THAT is a King Tiger! Are the idlers and drive sprockets metal? What type of tracks come with the kit? Also, any sense of the accuracy of the kit out of the box? The Dragon kit I'm planning to build for this campaign (6302) is pretty damned good OOTB, so curious how the Trumpeter kit stacks up.
