As the first model model that I have posted on any forum I thought I'd go for something a little over the top.
Designed and built using components derived from the Tiger tank family, hence the term "Super Tiger" in the title.
And just to give an impression of just how big this beast was, at 140tons it was twice the weight of a King Tiger. Pictured next to a Panzer 4, it shows it to its full size.
Please feel free to comment or criticize.

Nice.
I just opened mine but haven't started it yet. I'm thinking of doing a more " What If " model. I haven't decided on what changes/additions I'll do. Waiting for inspiration.

The only way I got to keep them Tigers busy is to LET THEM SHOOT HOLES IN ME!

Thanks for the feed back.
Now that I've finally learnt hoe to post pictures, I suppose I'd better post some pictures of some of my other models (the better ones).
Just started UM BA10.
Since the E100 was not actually built, (proto-type started but not finished) any model built is almost by definition a "what if".dogsbody wrote:Nice.

The perfect excuse for a couple, one real and one what if.

Currently building as armoured car. Also required, Half-track and rail versions.
S.W.M.B.O. may not agree about the necessity!
