You're in a league of your own here, Dmitry! Rest assured I will not attempt anything like this on my own kit. Tedious enough as it is to put the kit parts together nicely!

Keep up the good work!

Wow, look at that. On top of all that detail and precision, even the gun has moving and positioning parts.

This is just the most impressive build i have ever seen!

For over a year i have been watching the armorama site almost every day and your thread even more closely Dmitry.

But i have not singed up until today and i did it because i just want to say how freaking breathtaking your build is =)

Keep up the excellent work

I have been away from the forum for a little time and just checked through this thread.

I don't know what to say other than stunning. When I get round to making my Kingtiger I will be using this thread for guidance

Wonderful work

Your wonderful additions to almost every part in this kit make for some extraordinary fidelity to realism. This is a great tutorial for anyone building this kit,and for modeling in general.
