Hi everyone.
Being a modern armor modeller, I've had recently a kind of "attack" related to german WWII armor.
Started with Dragon's Panther G Smart Kit -now in WIP stage- and hope to build after it the "well" known Tiki Tiger.
Here I stalled due to some lack of info, perhaps I'm not able to understand what was already -and repetedly- discussed about this particular vehicle.
I plan to start with Tamiya's Early Tiger I, which I know is not accurate for Tiki. So, what will I need to modifiy/add/replace?
Maybe some of Tigermodels mantletes? Which one?
What about the turret rear box? Is Voyager's "Africa" one a good start?
Feiffel filters, yes or no?
I have a long list of questions, but donīt want to bother you that much, so I'll keep myself within these ones (obviosuly just for now, lol).
I know this was widely discussed previously, but could not find clear references to these doubts -my fault, I know-
Any help will be really appreciated!!!

Alejando, I believe you've posted the same query at ML. You may want to do a search there -- go 5 or so pages down as there's been some recent discussion/s on that. Here's one: http://www.network54.com/Forum/47207/thread/1283867196/Tiki+Tiger%2C+what+I+know+so+far. Cheers -- Tat
