I agree with the bloody brilliance thing. I just looked at the most recent work again. Woah boy!!

Anyone notice in the pic of the real tigers' engine compartment further up this page the nasty nasty schrapnel hole in that helmet?

Oh my.... You are really going the distance with this one!
Makes me feel clumsy, just looking at my Tiger-fumblings... But I am going to nick a few of your things!
Well, not nick, but use as inspiration.

Hello,

It has been a very long time since the last update. Lack of progress has been caused by a number of factors that may soon be resolved and the Tiger is not abandoned.

It proved impossible for me to model with a 2 1/2 year old running around during the weekends and evenings while my partner was in university full time and working evenings and weekends. And we had to move, again.

However my partner is now a fully qualified teacher and is looking for roles in schools which means no more working weekends and I can actually do productive things.

So I would imagine that I will begin work on the tiger (or another smaller project to get me back in the game) very soon

Hello Dean,

Nope not really, the Tiger is currently in a box waiting to be restarted. To be honest right now I don't know if I will ever finish it although I really hope to.

I am actually working on a project that is not on any forum - a Stug III Ausf.G which is taking up loads of my time.

Thanks

S

I understand :-) Been staring at a wooden ship build for a few years waiting for the motivation to reappear.
