The zimm looks good. Is it PE? The camo painting is just right. Love the way you did it!

Thanks for your comments,yes the zim is pe but it was realy for an academy tiger had to make some miner adjustments.the turret is from an academy tiger and the top of the turret is tamiya,had to do lots of sanding to make it fit.

How can you build tigers so fast? I really cant figure it out, I have a bunch of tigers that I want to build, but can you tell me how do you build them so fast, what helps you, what steps do you take? Especially because they look like really clean builds

Nice looking Tiger I you have going there. I really like the hand-painted camo, thats something you dont see much of these days on kits, but was very common in the field.
Zimmerit looks good for PE. I think I would have gone with Cavalier myself, but you did a fine job with the PE.
Decals look awesome, although in one of the pics you can see silvering, but I can see its the camera angle and not your work
Looking forward to more pics !!
Cheers !!

Very nice, some drybrushing of a light tan ontop of the green would give a nice faded effect
