Thank you guys, very much appreciated! The tracks took a long time to assemble: 5 parts per link. Took a long time to assemble, but the weird thing is: I enjoyed the process (much better than DS & Magic Tracks).

Very nice! 😄 I guess with the double headlights and cut-down fenders that'd be the 502nd heavy tank abteilung? Cool!

Hi, no, it's vehicle 112 from s.Pz.Abt 501 in Tunesia in August 1942 (or possibly a bit later, because of the feifel filters. Check tiger1.info for more, well, info.

Album info

Rye Field Model 5001 OOB. Excellent model, although apparently some mistakes (according to tiger1.info) were made which I corrected where feasible (i.e. no shovel). Took me ages to find the "right" RAL8000 / RAL7008 colors. The b/w pictures shows it's almost impossible to discern between those colors. I'm not so much into weathering, used washes and some dust to make the tank look a bit used.
