Like I said, Marvelous detail!!! ;D
Wish I had taken a pic of all the parts that go into just the suspension, but will show the part and tell you how many in it, LOL.

Yah, but you know, if this thing has interior detail like I think, I am going to perform surgery on this one, as in; cut the turret top off and then scratchbuild a rim so I can replace the top. 
Having lotsa fun!!

looks great!! 
If it was me, I would move the front skirt to the rear,conneced to the last skirt there. And thats only cuz I like the front of the track showing, I think it makes it look tuffer  ! LOL.
Go here and scroll down to paint , they are Tigers but still...same cammo, I bet you can find one you like!

A Tiger??? (*drool!*) Can't get better than that!
What kind is it? Who manufactured it? What kinda goodies you have on it? Waaaahhh! I wanna see!!!
LOL, I'm kidding, (not), Tigers have been good to me, they helped me get from a sorry builder to a fair builder.
My first is on the left, a Tamiya Early version, then the DML Tiger I (late), and then The King!! (DML)
Youcan see a progression in learning. So, yeah, I got a thing for Tiguhs!!  
Can't wait to see what you do to yours!! 
Have fun,
Bill

James,
You got it?! Great! ;D. Sry if I there is some work on the wheels, I got started on it and then got the Dragon one, looked inside it and immediatly put the Tamiya away. If you need anything, let me know, have u made or bought a grab-handle maker yet?? You might want to invest in one, cuz I think I might have borrowed a couple from that kit  , LOL, no biggie, I can make 'em if you need some.
So... no more pix of any progress made from anybody??
I have to wear glasses to go anywhere....yesterday I was walking down the sidewalk when my prescription ran out.
Bill

Haha, yep, It took me 9 hours to put together the tracks for the King Tiger, (course it was 5 pieces to each link.) But..it's all worth it in the end!!!
Rob; I would definitly put brass shells in the racks!!
Good luck on it, that is quite a bit of work you got there.
And, have fun,
Bill
