Well, after buying the 1/16 Pershing, my LHS offered me a really good deal the Tamiya Tiger I. An offer I couldn't refuse. I picked it up yesterday afternoon, and have most of the chasis done. All the running gear on, tracks, etc. woohoo! Wish I had that much motivation on the Pershing! Maybe next weekend. Was going to post pics, but my digi's batteries died. Just wanted to share. Pics forthcoming! (pics are taken, just need to upload em.)

That's great jejack2, here's a link that'll give you excellent info on the Tiger 1 kit from Tamiya, it was a group build for this kit. http://www.finescale.com/fsm/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=6246

Looking forward to seeing those pics... :-)

Here are those pics I promised. One with the superstructure on, one off, one with a paintcan (for size reference for those who haven't seen 1/16 scale before) and the last a pic (horribly blurry) of all my TOYS!!!!
