Hi,

This is my first build up post Ive built about 12 1/72nd scale military models and I like to ad a little of a personal touch to them . This is what appears to be an older Hasegawa Early tiger kit. The kit seemed very simple compared to what I was used to so I made it more complex. I added photo etch accessories and I custom made parts when necessary. as of now the hull is almost complete and the turret has been started. I planned on adding a full turret interior and substructure. That could be removed from the model for display. Let mo know if you see anything that I should add. I started the model a while ago with a specific reference picture in mind , however since I started I lost the hard copy and my hard drive was erased. so now Im just going by the seat of my pants.

Steve, looking really good! Love the interior details, are they =really= not part of the kit? Some of the posts here make me realize why I don't post my pathetic builds.

Pouting....

You've done a great job with what is a very old and basic kit, especially compared to the models currently available from Dragon and Revell. While you're at it you should probably replace the front machine gun as it is way too thick...

Tim.

great work! althoughn i will agree on the machine gun!

I was so stunned bythe beautiful detail... I didn't even notice the MG.. Great work.
