discussion 1/16 HENG LONG TIGER 1

[eddiesolo]

I have a Heng Long RC Tiger 1, it came in standard grey, I added some green and tan camo and then did it in winter camo. I also did some side skirt damage.


The shoe is my wife's and is size 5 UK.


So, here is my snow Tiger awaiting my son's Sherman...

Sterling work Si, really like the look of this, am I to gather it is RC? I don't suppose you remember General Jumbo in the Beano?

It is RC John, more expensive versions have sound effects, smoke etc. This kit can be uprated with metal tracks, wheels, cupolas, barrels, exhaust shields, cables you name it.


I do remember General Jumbo and his armies made by Professor Carter.

The good thing with big scale like this, on a very good painting job and the proper light and site, you can't make the difference between a real tank and a model! Good job.

Ta Barry, glad you like it. The outside natural light really makes a difference, the first lot of pictures I think the flash was to harsh.
