Very good work, indeed... I like the chains and the camo netting especially, along with the excellent paint job and weathering..

reading this one a bit late, but comments are.....I fiure the bright yellow is due to picture or my screen, the only thing I would add is the grill screes from the cheap Tamiya set for their K-Tiger...something about screens over grills ....kinda like the ship raiings on a ship kit

Looks like a very nice build.. I think the color on my monitor is off though because the yellow looks flourescent to me..

Camrade fascists:
Looks great. One of the best tigers I've seen in a while. Keep up the good work.
