    It was great to see your figure at the show and congrats on the medal. I was wondering what the message on the piece of paper meant now I know why. I hope he didnt fall off and get damaged. There was some wonderful work at the show. I was a little disappointed in the lack of figure work in the...

    Liberation, Italy 1944

    It was great to see this build in the flesh at Telford last weekend. It looks even better close up. Congratulations on winning the Silver medal. The Gold winner was top quality work as well but I personnaly thought that you just edged it with your attention to detail. Have you any plans for...

    Dzhon Race. TIGER 1 Tamiya 1/35

    If you want to paint it gray you paint it gray mate. It is indeed high probability that it was Dunkelgelb but the experts once said the earth was flat. There are arguments on both sides. Here is a photo of your tank coloured in. Obviously this guy thought it was gray :smiling5: :cool::thumb2...

    Dzhon Race. TIGER 1 Tamiya 1/35

    Only one thing I can understand, where to fit the two rear smoke ? or mine hurlers. Can't see anywhere they should go on the corners. These at the front went on ok, but had more trouble trying to line them up for fitting as I could not judge the depth, after several attempts they went on. A good...

There are some famous photos of it stuck and pulled out of the Russian mud which may be of interest for you if you want to do a dio. I hope you sought out the issue with...

    In general - no. However there are the odd reported accounts of captured Tigers being used for short periods after capture until they broke down or damaged beyond use. This is because they were so technically advanced it was difficult to acquire spare parts. They were also taken back to HQ for...
