Desciption of building:
Leave on to the construction, it was that I
could buy a tub of a king-tiger of Tamiya favorably. This had to be separated
in the area of the last castor then and is put in a 2cm patrol about on her original length.
Then, the dimensions were calculated at
hand of a 1:35 model for the construction. The top was produced completely from
differently fat ABS plates. The side-aprons were produced from 0.5 brasses and
were reproduced scrapes and damages like with the original simultaneously. The
most difficult part was the tube, since long it is 25cm and simultaneously
conic. In the Internet, I found a company in Germany that my problem, the
tube-shield could solve was produced from Balsa and the cast-surface
reproduced with rarefied spatula afterwards. All hatches are also from ABS and
movable. The team was delivered by Verlinden. Was still found before the varnishing at
the entire model filth from a special-mixture from putty, small-track-grass and
lacquer. One varnished with airbrush and Gunze-colors. The model weights 6Kg and
is full-functional, fully able to function sounds, lifts and lowers the tube,
tube-retreat and lightning with the shoots the weapon, as well as Mg-fires and
sound. Construction-time was approximately-2-months.
