1/16 HENG LONG TIGER I 'HERTA' FULLY FINISHED-HONEST!

[Guest]

That's fantastic Si - looks like it could take on some full-size tanks!

Thanks guys, looks so much better now I have added the bits and bobs.

[eddiesolo]

As you know, I finished this and then found some upgrade parts-being waiting for them to arrive and then fit.


Fitted: New headlamps with proper cover, armoured transmission plates-inner fronts, correct top hull vent (next to jacking block), aerial fitted in correct position and painted-old RC aerial position (rear engine middle) plugged up and painted, turret vision slits cut out. rear convoy light-painted in blue, front machine gun now has scale butterfly clamps at either side for the cover to fasten, hull periscopes fitted and a 2.4Ghz upgrade board so she now handles so much nicer with better sound.


So, here she is, finally finished!

Cheers Ken, modelling has taken a back seat, been working on this and the Panther but pain has meant it has been slow. I just cannot get myself going for anything else at the mo.

[eddiesolo]

I lied...so sorry  I had to get some extras...just couldn't help it!


I have added some tiny padlocks and chain to the turret stowage bin.


I also have some S-mine throwers and lifting mushrooms on the way.


I really should source all the stuff together but this way the wife doesn't see a huge bill...I hope...I'm probably dead.

Cracking work and finish Si, looks amazing mate.

[eddiesolo]

Added S-mine launchers and correct metal mantel lifting mushrooms, right faff to fit

Thank you Moni, you're so right the filters and washes help to bring out the detail. It is all finished now...until I spot something else

Superb mate.

Cheers Ken, this has been a good one to do, and it moves and shoots!
