Here are some of the pics that you guys have been screaming for! Its is Milliput Zimm, on my Tiger Mid. Pro. And on my King Tiger (Porsche Turret). I zimmed the KIng Tiger last year with Tamiya putty. My first time. It sucked! Bad! So I redid it and it turned out pretty good!

Ohh yeah, I highly reccomend this method. Its easy and the clean up time in fast to! Plus this stuff works with water so you can handle it a long time before it is cured.

I used a pair of old pliers that my grandpa had in his tool box. I mean these babies were old. Anyway, I just put the putty on and then pressed the teeth into the wet putty. After I smoothed the putty out of course.
The teeth on the pliers were exactly like the teeth on my Tamiya Zimm. tool. And it was easier, so why not!

Simply wait for it to dry, then drill out the holes from the inside with my Dremel tool. Its that simple.
