                        I'd keep the driver IR Ron. Lot of info says the German intended their IR systems to eventually include the driver, and it looks good to boot. You could even pop one on for the gunner!

                        It sure added alot to it. Cant leave it alone though, I keep think man I should add this or add that. So are ya saying that I should keep the driver IR? Its a toss up for me.

                        Nice diorama! Um...what's that li'l dinky tank behind the E-100? Wink [;)]

                        I like the IR stuff. I wanted to add it to mine, but I couldn't find a kit to steal it from. I had a go at scratching a set (thought it would be easy!), but didn't like the results I got.

                        I wish I could see the texturing in the pix! It's probably my failing monitor's problem more than your photography.
                        Looking back, that's the main thing I wish I'd have done to mine. Texturing really does add a whole new level of realism to an armor model.

                        Glad to see another great E-100 in the club!

                        Is the turret close to the size of a Panzer II or am I hallucinating? Probably the latter. Big Smile [:D]

                        Here is one with the IR site for the driver....Yah or Nah? Then you can make out the textureing on the mantlet and turret as well.







                        Hope ya like em.

                        The holes next to the others with bolt heads? No I did not. I will though. The barrel I think is cool to. Too bad I dont have the original one. It was as long as the tank,only it was a 88 insted of the 128.The kill rings I am having aliitle problem with though and that is they ripped in a few places so got to think of a way to fix that cause I like it alot.
                        I got toget some better pics though cause I textured the turret and mantlet along with the exhaust. all of this adds so much. And I cant decide if I want to add the driver IR site or leave it off.I willput a pic up with it on soon.

                        Nice work, Ron! I love the camo, and of course that looooong gun.
                        The kill stripes are a nice touch, too.

                        I can't tell in the pix, but didja drill out those holes on the skirts (2 each)? Ref pix I have show those holes go all the way through the skirts, and I suppose they were used when removing and replacing those heavy babies.

                        True. However I still wanted to put some reasoning to the markings for the what if factor.Thanks for the camo complement Matt. I want to do the ambush on it but I think I would just mess it up cause I havent done one yet. On the flip side there is alot of first for me on this kit.

                        Looking excellent Ron! You sure do have a knack with camo painting. Glad you put the IR on it, too. Looking forward to finished pics.

                        Don't worry about accuracy with this fella, I think to be truly accurate it would need to be in pieces!

                        Ok here she is,still got to wheather her and add the driver IR. I will get some better pics up when I can.Started work again so dont havethe time like before.Sad [:(]
                        Now this is no way in any form built to accuratcy just pure fun,though alittle research did go into it,as for the markings I have warrior figures to go with it which are in the 2nd. SS div. so this is why there is the S13# and heavy tank markings, so you could say it could be.Any way I hope this sneak peak holds ya over cause she aint done. Can never leave good enuff alone the saying goes.Big Smile [:D]Tongue [:P]

                        Strange that they're here, yes! You must've replaced your E pix with these babies, somehow.

                        Well all I got her painted in ambush,well the ambush isnt on it yet the camo is though. I will put up some pics friday or saturday. Had to wait for great models to ship my kits so I could use the command antenna mount for the pariscopes off the jagdtiger. Speaking of it is also complete. I will post those as well.

                        Ok I know its not much but heck that cutting of the drivers hatch took me a few plus the what if factor is getting me. everything in tan is from the KT and the barrel as of now is a jagdpanther and the stock put together. Got the aber 128mm on order. I textured the mantel to give it the torch cast look and will be giving it the cast look soon with Mr. surfacer. Big Smile [:D]

                        That would work. I vote we Unofficially adopt Lion as the name of the e-100. All in favor...

                        Hey, Guys. Didn't want you to think I'd forgotten you. I was in St Louis last week and it's my first day back.

                        QUOTE: There was no name designation for the E-100 as far as I know. Again, time for more speculation! "Sabre Tooth Tiger" Would be cool! What was the actual name for that prehistoric cat...Smilodon? Nah, that wouldn't work!
                        Super Tabby? Hmmm....


                        Since they named the other one the Maus, maybe this one could have been called the rat!!

                        And speculation is greatandnot great at the same time. I have to many speculations going on in my head. J-hulk did you have trouble with the muzzle brake? If you messed with it at all. The PE seems to be to short to go all the way around the muzzle.
