Tiger I , N214 LAH, 1944
Posted by PITERPANZER on Monday, March 12, 2012 4:41 PM

Hello!
The gallery of the  tiger I model, which is a first part of the diorama ,

Tank of the 2nd company LAH, which became the trophy of Gen. Maczek I st Armored Div. .
 I based on the pics below.

My model, which is still waiting dusting pigments, but  as a last step on the diorama.
My heart cries to make a hole in the turret , from the soldiers side doesn`t  see it  and maybe I leave it without a penetration hole .

More pics here

workbech  here

Send regards Piterpanzer

Your Tiger looks great!  Another Tiger posted here... looks like they are making a comeback.  Dig the hanging mud guard fender in the rear!

Looks like it might be the Italeri Tiger? I say that, because the zimmerit reminds me of my Sturmtiger.

Nicely done and i like the camo.

Hi !

Thanks for the kind words.

That`s true. It is Italeri model with Friul tracks ,Rb metal gun and MG and Aber PE.

 Exhaust muffers cover I made by I paper-card .

I used to warm air ,at the moment,when I try to crumple the oryginal plastic parts like on the pictures .

The shape of the  covers  send me my Friend Tommy ,who builts 1-25 scale paper-card tiger.

Zimmerit is dimensionally incorrect,but ,that I know now. I compare with my son`s Dragon Tiger I ,when it was glued (s....t)

Cheers,  Piterpanzer

Piter,
That is a very well executed battle beaten Tiger.
I like the way you have beaten it up in line with the picture references and would like to read more about the story  off Gen. Maczek I st Armored Div.
One thing you might want to consider is filling out the vision blocks, I use Tamiya Clear Green on white or simply on some aluminium foil.

Nice job on all that PE too!

Very Best Regards
Johan

Great job on the Tiger.

Very nice, dented and bent sheet metal.
