Not a lot of snow but it was good to get the tiger out in it!
The snow was a bit sicky and caused the tank to struggle quite a bit as the tracks clogged up!

Cool !!! (No pun intended). I really like that camo pattern and although it wasn't common in the German army, it was used bya couple of units in Russia. There's a picture in one of my books showing it. I'll have to see if I can find it. Again, nice job.

Camo scheme looks good, You need a gun tube extension to get that 88 to the right length and get rid of one of these turret numbers. Tiger is in the right element. The Wehrmacht also has emmense problems in snow and mud. It froze overnight and they had to resort to hand grenades to un-clog the wheels so it could move.

they used hand grenades?[X(]
the disadvantage of inter leaved wheels haunted the early tiger in the eastern front
no wonder they "snapped" their tracks there

Cheers!
Yes I know I still need to sort out the length of the gun, as for the numbers I am still trying to decide on what numbers to use.
There was a thread on here a while back about the rear wheels filling with ice and snow and what was done o stop it. I have had a look for the thread any Ideas what was done?
