    And so it begins

    Well the start of the Koenigs Tiger the Zimmerit coating the photo etch stuff is so flimsy dashed awful stuff to work with.
    I had to figure out how to preserve the locating indents for all the tools and wire ropes on the side sponsons of the tank.
    I ended up drilling #70 size drill bit through the body at those points so when I fit the Zimmerit just poke a pin from the inside and note where it comes out then reform the indent.
    Then just small (very) cut and push inwards then fit the tools etc easy peasy the ball mount and turret are going to be fun!
    This one I also brought the metal tracks which are even more involved fitting together than the Tiger I.
    Thanks chaps.
