boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build

YEA Jerry the tank is just over 9ft long an it was a brand new cattle trough an one of my boaty freinds gave it to me to test nimitz out when i was doin what you see in the pic but he had a heart attack an then surgury so he said keep it as i cant lift it now as its bloomin heavy an yes the film is great an i liked the bit where he said splash the zero's just imgaine if that really happened an they did stop the attack it would have altered the time line an they may have end up not bein born makes you think dont it
