RE: Tamiya Tiger I Initial conversion
Which Company are you going to depict your Tiger in? They each set up their Tigers quite differently. I recently completed a [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6582316/anchors_6582316/mpage_1/key_panzerkampfwagen/anchor/tm.htm#6582316]2 Kompanie Tiger[/link] .
Just about everything but the front track guards can be scratch built. They are best replicated with styrene diamondplate with miniature piano hinges. They hinged differently then the later Tigers.
Let me know which Kompanie you'd like to depict and we'll go from there.
