Hello

there is some pictures of my last kit .. A tamiya king tiger
I use the tamiya track kit (plastic) It looks better than the original rubber tracks. And I add a chain in front of the tank.













There is some picture about the step by step http://www.ch-scale.com/135-tamiya

thanks

Very clean and nice looking... as far as my aging eyes can see Gossweiler!

Would like mine to look just like it.

Camo painting is good,chipping and weathering is top notch.My only advice would be to loose the chain.

For the zimmerit. To start i use the tamiya tool .. but it's not good ! So finally I use tamiya putty mixed with acetone. I apply a nice layer wait 5-7 minutes and start to sculpt it with a ''flat'' screw driver N° 0 . it s long but the result look perfect !
