Dear All,

After I have completed my Sd.Kfz 222 I am going to start an ambitious Tiger 1 build log based around the Dragon 6383 Late Production Tiger with Zimmerit. This will be the most comprehensive build log I have ever undertaken and will probably take 12 months to complete. My little Panzer 1a took more though time though and its tiny next to the Tiger

I dont want to give too much away at this stage but it will include a complete interior with Verlinden, Academy and ABER Photoetched components, including a PE radio kit.

I am telling you this because I would kindkly request as many Tiger 1 interior images that you have as well as links to sites that have Tiger interior images as this will greatly assist me.

Many Thanks in advance

Steven

HI Steven. Looking forward the the Tiger interior. I remeber well Lee Llyods Tiger from a few years ago, and going by your recent models, Im sure you could pull off something similar (no pressure mate ;-)). IŽll have a look and see what I have regarding the interior ... will you be detailing the engine area as well? PM me with your e-mail address.

Hello Frank,

I will look up lee's build, I dont think that I have seen it?

I am planning to construct a replica down to the nuts and bolts where possible and this will include a full engine bay. I have purchased two Tiger Tank Engines and will be using the best.

PM sent !

Steven, I'm looking forward to this build. I will look thru what Mason collected when he was working on his Tiger build and post here if it's of any help.
