The gear...first steps





First cut struts...

Hi!

Thank You Guys

I took few shots before I had left my home and workshop

So...the drive wheel (after first painting)



And the road wheel with camo (also after first painting)




As You can see, I have added new details...



I hope You like it

Look pretty good...I don't have airbrush, so I must use only brush.

Best regards!

Card shouldn't look like that... only a real Tiger looks like that... :-)

Simply the greatest model I have ever seen. Keep it up, Przemek!

Hi Przemek,

your project is unbelievable. You must have good nerves.
Would you built me also a Tiger?
Keep going and have fun.

Greetings,Nils.

This is insane, in an amazing way. I've never seen anything like this. I mean scratch building tracks?! I wish I could have 1% of yr dedication and discipline on a project.

Best regards....Dave.

Hi Przemek,

Just a word to tell you that the scratchbuild tracks like you did is the single greatest thing I've ever seen in the modeling world, period.

This thread is new to me and I'm deeply impressed and bow down.

I'm sure you'll finish it and wish you the best of luck.

Contrary to most of the models out there the insides of tanks was not left unpainted primer red. The bottom of the hull, and the engine compartment was painted to this gray-blue color; the fighting compartment the usual ivory. (The mentioned academy tiger calls for a very strange color instead of the ivory -I'd like to know why...)

Edit: a quick question, though. What versions of th Tiger could use the crane on the turret? (I've got an extra 1/72 crane, and planning to build a Tiger in that scale, so it'd be an interesting touch.)
