Very nice, like that alot. Is this the Cyber Hobby kit. The only thing i would say is that the right hand antenna should be removed. German command tanks had two, either the star antenna or then 1.4m antenna depending on which command version it is.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I agree, one of those antennas should be removed, the tank could carry only one radio set in its hull so it didn't need two antennae.

The left one is more usually the unused one.

You can simply cut off the antenna shaft, leaving the rubber base and a metal stub, like this:

 

Another slight problem is the protective pot on the right side. It should be sunken into the hull roof.

David, this is Wittmann's command Tiger, an Sd.Kfz 267, so it carries two radios. It should have two antennas not three.

Very nice Tiger!  The paint is very well done.  I enjoy seeing a clean tank like this just as much as the battered, muddy ones.

I agree. Soetimes you lose a lot of detail that heavy weathering covers. I try to find a fine line myself.

Thanks for the info on the antennas guys. For lack of reference I could not decide on them. I will remove the left hull antenna. They'e not permanently mounted anyway. other pictures are in my other post " The rest of my Tiger" Thanks again for viewing.
