![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/46980.jpg) tiger2 porsche turret Being a Porsche, gotta be faster than the others.  Nice work. Being a Porsche, gotta LOOK faster than the others... and that sleek and swoopy lower gun mantle deflected incoming rounds down and through the thin roof of the hull. I think their was only around 50 of the porsche turreted ones made . The germans settled on the henschel turreted ones for production somewhere around 400- 600 made if I remember right. The king tiger was a waste of resources actually , bad ass tank when it worked. They could have made almost 2 Panthers for each king tiger made. Alot of post ww2 American tank design came from German stuff brought back stateside.

Nice work. Love that camo scheme.
What would really set these off is a better photo setup. Outdoor lighting, take the photo at a scale eyeball height, and keep a narrow depth of field on the model only, keeping the background out of focus.
It takes a village to raise an idiot.

The Tiger was the most awesome tank in the war. The problem with it was they couldn't feed it. Germany literally ran out of fuel.
Thank God.

Always enjoy your model pictures. Used to do that a lot as a kid. Never followed up after the teen years.
You do great work! My stuff was fugly in comparison though I did luck out and win one model contest once.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing. I need to make an M1A2 Abrams, maybe after I get my marlin 36g done . Something to do between deer and turkey season. Rifle has 1st priority.
