Hi all.
I'm going to try to kill... or make better as possible this Tamiya model.
I'll use some pe (Aber) and a metal gun from Jordi Rubio.
I hope this like all you.

If you want to improve it, you could start with the adapter plate which seems to be at the wrong angle; the posts holding it were one above the other, and that shows up in the fixing bolts on the outer face:

Hi all,
I follow this and Bill Hazards build blog with big interest and have learned a lot.
But something I cannot identify:
The Tamiya "Africa intitial" shows the front cover plate of the tracks with a diagonal pattern.
Bill Hazard has pointed out in his build blog that 250012 and 250014 has a square pattern, which is even clear to identivy in Trojcas Tiger book.
My favorite Tiger "142" seems even to have a square pattern, (as far as I can identify from the photos I have).
So is their some "logic", which Tigerīs has the diagonal pattern and which square pattern ?
Thanks in advance,
Erich.

Hi Reb. Thanks for your words. And you're right, the box is very nice
David, apreciated very much your help. I tried to repair it, but it went ahead to a little dissaster, so, this time I only go to get safe your advice and the next Tiger will be right in this point.
I repeat, thank you very much.
Erich, I'm sorry, but I can not help you. Thanks for follow my work.
And my Tiger go like this.
Tomorrow, paint

Well, a little more, and with a little push, I think this is over.
Pics.
This week, I hope finish it.

Your work is awwwwe-some!
That said, I was unaware that Tigers fought in Africa. it seems that they would have been game changers. With that gun and that terrain. I'm looking forward to building this one myself.
