hey guys i got some more pics for ya!!!!! by the end of these you'll see i'm almost finished. I'ts far enough along for me to go ahead and play with it as i need some 1/16th jerry can to finish off the tank, as i desided to fill the holes for mounting the air filters!!! so here are the pics. There you go guys, I admit that I finished off the stowed equipment and like i said earlier that I'm waiting on a set of jerry cans for the rear of the tank!!! At that time decals will be done and i'll have finished the great monster Tiger I!!! stug

Very nice work there buddy! That thing must be HUGE! I don't have any desire to build the big stuff...I don't have the room. And REALLY whaasssup with all the Dr. Pepper! Can't wait to see the finished model. Jeff
Awesome Steve! :-) My dad just got the 1/16th Pershing so I will no doubt be asking you tonnes of questions on his behalf. He is a novice modeller but says he does not want my help on it, big mistake. Awesome work Steve, Seems like you may have neded all of those Dr. Peppers, Andrew

Hi Stug ..if you don't want to add the filters no problem but at least put the attachement nuts which were soldered to all early tigers except for the first 2 or three and I think the were refitted with them too...For realisme sake!

Hey, If you recycle those Dr Pepper cans you will probably have enough money for another Tiger.
Great job on the model.
