Having some fun, Luk personalized a Tamiya 1/35 scale Tiger tank for his nephew by changing the vehicle from a ‘late’ version to a ‘lager’ version. He used leftover decals from a MiniArt Beer Lieferwagen and added beer barrels and crates with bottles, also from MiniArt. To make it even more special, the number on the turret is his nephew’s birthday, even though there was never a Tiger tank with this number. Luk said that he and his nephew both think that the Tiger tank is the most beautiful tank made in World War II and one of the best. “We are big Tiger fans,” he says.
