Bob out of interest re Takom, watch this if you have time.

Night shift is the guy building it , finds a lot of faults with this issue of a New Jagdtiger.

Yours the 4BO Club.

Hi Bob
Like Dave on page one I am amazed at just how much knowledge you and some others have. Real Mastermind stuff.
Looks a nice kit and seems to be going together nicely.

Thats shocking for a new kit John. Seems no one builds the kits before releasing them. Although the Tamiya StuG is years old, when it comes to fit it knocks spots of Takom and the same goes for the Jagdtiger!

Wrist and pain killers at the ready, bit more done

Finished the rear, added engine deck covers.


Started on the casemate by adding the extra bolt on 30mm armour in front of the internal ammo bin and the loader

Decided to remove the middle stud and nut on the 30mm armour in front of the driver. This makes it a Miag build and to a narrow build date of March to May 43, only Miag StuG's had this missing bolt due to the metal behind the extra armour not being thick enough.


Had to cut bits off the wheels to make them join together ok, then left clamped using clothes pegs. Not good as the wheel details are very good!

Cheers bob

IM amazed Bob about this bolt where is it was it suppoce to be could you put up an arrow an the build is lookin very good are you sure you are not a rivet counter lol

Uncle Night Shift!!! Aka Martin Kovac. One of my favourites. Maybe not the absolute best but I like his self-deprecating style. I'm actually about a third of a way through that one.

Looking good so far Bob!
