Any suggestions on a tool to make rivets on ABER PE
The Tamiya "hunting tiger" hull is too short , its an old outdated kit, probably from the seventies , If you want an accurate one go with revell or dragon . Dragon has 2 versions avail. the porsche , and the henschell The latter version was accepted by hitler as the one to go with , as the porsche version had suspension problems , it took a lot of wheels and springs to hold up almost 80 tons The hunting tiger was just an assault gun ( not turning turret) much like the stug or jagdpanther, while the smaller 2 of the 3 were quite effective , the jagdtiger was manned by inexperienced crews , using a machine without the bugs worked out yet , they constantly broke down ,and used fuel to excess , most were destroyed by thier own crews after . Plus this all occured shortly before germany's surrender , so supply lines were a big problem.
