The "beast from the east"!!


Open up wide now........aaaahhhh!!


I'm not sure that there is anything current that will withstand a gentle tap from that beasty, let alone WW2 heavy tanks!


I like it, it looks the business!!

Thanks Gavin, one drawback they did have was that the ammo was so large that each vehicle could carry I believ only 18 or so rounds so each needed its own ammo carrier

18 or so rounds

OK, that ain't much, but with a gun that big all you need is 1 hit.......

Awesome work Jim really liking the damage and paintwork on this one and the simple but so effective base really sets it off great job

A really neat build mate. The rust weathering looks superb

Thank you Steve, just about getting my technique honed to where I want it, I'm afraid it 's quite old school but many years of practice seem to be paying off a bit I hope..........Jim

Nice model Jim.


Intrigued. Two photos of the front end one very rusty tracks and the next very little rust.


Is this a weird oh of camera or did you adjust the amount of rust ?


Got to say you are very prolific with your output !

I must have been sleeping to not see this beast ( no tiger tank whatever mk ) surely couldn't stand much punishment from this!!!


She's a cracker Jim you really know your stuff when it comes to armour and painting, weathering!


Looking from the rear side it in someways looks like a ships turret planted on tracks!!


Deadly definatly deadly


Awesome as always
