H Erin,
Thats a very nice job you are doing so far.How easy is it to work with such tiny parts?
Are you going to do a fancy camoflage scheme?
Keep on building.

Very very awesome build, Erin. I love the King Tiger and when I saw your King Tiger, just made me envious. Such detail on the 1/72nd scale! and PE to boot! included in the kit! Dragon is coming out with some really awesome models.
Very clean work, nice detailing, and working in record time considering your time is also taken up by school and chores. Really enjoy you working on your tank with me and the rest of the family. Its very awesome.
Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see it painted! Are you going to weather it?

Nice job, got a couple myself on the workbench. Great builds arent they. What camo scheme are you gonna put it in? I got a couple books on Kampguippe Peiper if ya need some info ( just pm me)
Cant wait to see more.
And to answer Chad and Carls questions
Chad, they are great kits. most of them anyway. Ya gotta watch out for the diecast ones because they are hard to fix if there are fit problems.
Carl, These new DML kits have small parts but its managable (sp?) with tweezers and lots of patience. Its a comprimise between space and detail for braille scale.
Hope that answers those q's somewhat.

Hi Erin
You are doing well here. Your Tiger looks really solid as a build with a good tight fit, no seams, and everything cleaned up nicely. I see it even has a engine for the rear compartment--pretty cool! Keep up the good work, and try to give your Dad and Mom some modeling tips if you can
Keep us posted as you move through your build.
