About product

Early-production Tiger I – details 1:35

Refining parts from the brand Royal Model for a model of the German Tiger I heavy tank in the form of the first production runs. The set is cut for the Academy kit, because under the same name the manufacturer also offers a version for a different kit.

The first Tigers at the front

The early Tigers got into action at the close of 1942 and can be told from the later machines at first glance. They carried a commander's cupola with vision slits, they had air filter extensions at the rear and they were equipped for fording deep water. The 8.8 cm gun was derived from an anti-aircraft gun and in 1943 it had practically no equal among Allied tanks. The price was a weight of over fifty tons, demanding maintenance and transport tracks that had to be changed before loading onto a railroad car.

Advice on assembly

Mark the bends out in advance and work against a firm edge. Attach the metal elements only once the plastic joints have cured, otherwise they will come off during sanding. Apply a thin coat of primer to the metal and the plastic at the same time; it unifies the surface. Zimmerit did not yet appear on the early machines, which simplifies preparing the surface.

The set will suit

  • Builders of German heavy tanks
  • Anyone interested in machines from the Eastern Front of 1943
  • Modelers with practice in metal accessories
  • Those who build the early form of the Tiger I

The model itself, glues and paints have to be obtained separately.
