Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your support!
I picked up an early Tiger Dragon yesterday not build a Dragon one yet only RFMs n hoping its alot better certainly looks it!
The engine looks excellent for a scratchbuild. The only thing you missed were a couple oil tanks between the engine and the rear plate. Otherwise 👌 great work
Thanks for the tips!
Good work 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
You are one crafty dude!
Just got back into modelling and came across your awesome vid but where did you get that metal accessory pack from thanks
Thank you for watching!, The metal accessories can as part of the kit. However you can buy packs separately, they are called photo-etched parts (PE) just look up PE for the model you want to make and in what scale. Like this www.ebay.com/itm/354310389205?hash=item527e8b7dd5:g:-2oAAOSwZ0NZbOpy
Great video! Good thing you also explained the process a bit, usually I find a lot of music videos with no explanation at all. Btw is that a early type idler wheel I see?!
Well done great detail
FANTASTIC! A TRUE build without shortcuts, omitted steps and details not shown or unexplained. Have never seen a BUILD video as comprehensive and complete as this. THANK YOU for your efforts on behalf of us viewers. Like a good book, I will be terribly disappointed when I finish viewing all parts as this is so splendid..
What an encouraging comment! Thank you very much for your kind words and support, and do not worry I have more great detailed builds coming :)
Thank u
Well done, beauty construction on the engine area, deck and hatch...wow!!!!
Outstanding , inspirational work!!
Thank you for the informative video, your tip on sanding the wheels I treasure. The hinges, wow! Truly inspiring.
Awesome scratch built engine just wondering why you use super Glue in the entire build
Thanks very much!. I use super glue because it's quick to hold things in place and it works across many mediums.
I agree. There is obviously a place for CA here but slide molded kits are really designed to take a liquid solvent glue and a modeler can be giving himself more headaches than he's trying to avoid if he uses CA. Moreover if there is a temperature change pieces can fall off or the model can crack.
Who makes that pe bender? I like it
Awesome build , one note on the tracks, No Tiger l , had solid guide horns on the tracks, as good as Dragons Magic Tracks are, The are incorrect for the Tiger l, Notice the spare Tracks in the kit and the guide horns, they are correct. Why Dragon did the tracks this way the world may never know, Maybe one reason why they went to DS,
I think one could get away with scribing or chiseling one tooth on the outside edge of each track. It's a bit of work but not an enormous amount, because other magic tracks are wonderful.
You are the f#%&ing MASTER!!! Awesome work
Thank you for your support! :)
Quick question, which Zimmerit sheet are you using?
It didn't come with the kit did it?
the zimmerit was purchased separately. It is a set from Cavalier Model Productions No. 0131
Here is a link to it www.scalemates.com/kits/cavalier-model-productions-0131-pzjpfw-vi-ausf-e-tiger-i-sdkfz-181--269048
Do you build whole model with super glue and what brand also do you enhance weld seams
Yes I use super glue for the whole thing It's called Gorilla Super Glue www.holdfast.co.nz/pages/product_details.aspx?pid=00180&cat=9&psid=00180
I use Tamyia epoxy putty for the weld seems thcc.nz/products/tamiya-87051-epoxy-putty-quick-type?variant=12522301227081&

Andrew the signalman thank you for your support! 😀
Where I'm able to find the tracks that you used?
And the Zimmerit if you wouldn't mind?
The Zimmerit I used was by Cavalier number 0131 for Dragon models Tiger I 6253 from a local model shop . They come up on eBay from time to time, also you can get similar packs on there too.
I hope this helps!
May I ask what is the tool you used to bend the metal piece at 24:47?
Hi Peter,
It is simply called a photo etch bending tool. It is very handy for getting sharp bends in metal.
Here is a link to a search for them on ebay:
www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=photo+etch+bending+tool&_sacat=0
There are many to choose from and price ranges.
Thanks for your interest! :)
@@LocktOnArt thank you for your help!
@@petercheng2322 You're very welcome
Great detail! Looking good so far! Will you be damaging the exhaust covers?
Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build, I have this kit in the stash and I feel inspired...but the build queue is long!
Tim Bryant Hi Tim , thanks for your support.
The exhaust covers are made of preformed brass and are quite hard so I don't know what I will be doing with them at this stage.
Cheers
