Default RE: 1/6 Tiger I build

Last month I added more detail to the interior this was planned some time back along with other details that will be added over winter.

The driver’s seat was purchased from Panzerworks in America this is made from black resin strange colour but works very well and if you do rub through the paint who’s to tell the radio operators seat was scratch built along with the back rest

The next job was to select 2 dolly’s for this I used 2 of the older type ones with the early head sculpts as these would hardly be seen in the tank then came the fun part of cutting of one leg each so they could fit with the motors in place, Robert don’t look.



Once a leg was amputated it was time to dress them in appropriate uniform along with head phones and throat mikes plus some maps, no doubt this will be used by others in the future



A through the hatch shot with internal lighting no doubt this will also be used

And some internal shots showing the internal lighting along with instrument lighting



More detail to come over winter.
