Looking good T! ;D ;D ;D

I have the same kit in the stash with the resin zimmeret. That PE stuff doesn't look so user friendly. I'm really curious to see how well that interior works out.

A Cautionary tale about the interior set .... The Spent shell basket on th gun cradle may be a lil' tight against th Internal travel lock - That piston thing against th rear wall behing th gun .

Great reference material ! That Modeler's Guide ... is Da' Bomb !!

No it's not!!! Stick to the resin kind. I love tanks with interiors so this should be fun.

Well I have been off this project doing other things, but got back to it today. Instead of working on the wheels I decided to put the zim on the turret. What a freaking mess!!!! Didn't fit and I had to trim a lot. Then to my horror the PE zim was not for the Tamiya kit I'm using, but instead it's for the Academy kit. CRAP!!!! I'm going to finish this mess, but I don't think I'm going put the full interior in this Tiger. I'm going to find better option for the interior details. Here are some pictures of today's nightmare.
