Intensely cool Lou! :th:

Looks excellent.

Hello Lou

Great thread and build mate.
Sorry only just dipped in on this build of yours.
Not sure if this is your first Tiger but you sure are nailing this build.
The question that bugs me the most and watching all of these builds I am still not sure.............................. :crazy:
Tools painted separate or on model?
You have gone with the latter and it looks great.
Now your on to the really fun part of weathering this beast.
Have fun and can't wait to see end result.
