    Well here I am. After many years back into tanks. I was just watching YouTube and all of a sudden here is this 1/16 scale all metal German Tiger I tank. First the Chassis, then the Hull, then the Turret, Then Wheels/Track.
    Where does it stop?? I think I have most of the bits and pieces to get it running. Still a long way to to but getting there.
    Here a pic of it so far. . . Smoke Unit and all the goodies inside not installed as yet. . .got the Trans/Motors in but still need solder wires etc. Mato makes a nice tank.

    Look great Swamppanther and welcome to Hobby Squawk! I assume you are going to paint it/weather it up?

      Yes under all that base is a primer coat and hairspray. I have been using https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5uzJULC62w by Panzermeister36 as a guide for the paint. I also have been keeping up with
      the Full Earth Workshop for a how to guide. I sure wish they had an instruction sheet for building Mato Tiger I from scratch with parts obtained online.
