Tiger model AMX-10RCR Finally Finished!

Cheers Marco thought you'd be along rather quickly for this!

Damn it Pete, haven't you got some gardening to do ?

Looking forward to this one fella, and I'll agree with Chris .

LOL, Chris, funnily enough I was thinking about adjusting the suspension to show off the range of movement the suspension can achieve. here's some interesting pics of it in action,









I'm thinking about the first picture with the vehicle coming down a slope. Looks to be easy to do as well. The real thing as you are probably aware uses a hydropneumatic system which reminds me of my old citroen BX which had the same thing! Loved that car it was like floating on a magic carpet. 

Paul, gardens all done mate as is everything else around the house, I've only got modelling and cleaning our cars to keep me out of mischief at the moment! 

Last nights progress now and the hull is all together. I've added some weld beads to the rear which helps hide some tricky gaps in the plates using stretched sprue.

The weldseams look perfect Pete.

Had a pleasant day working on the model and have also added some anti slip using VMS hull tex. This one is ment for rougher anti slip such as merkava etc so is perfect for this model. Some small improvements too such as the re-worked exhaust and new handles on the engine deck replacing the solid kit items. I'm probably going for a normal sit on the suspension on this one just because I can't be arsed to muck about with it. I'll save that idea for when I build the SEPAR version.

Annnnnnnnnnd he's off! Great subject matter and awesome pics of the 1/1 scale version. Looking forward to your build.

Regards,

Ian

Very interesting subject!
You have my attention sir.

Here he goes again. Love to watch your updates fella, flawless is the keyword.

Great build! When I built my own AMX-10, I felt that Tiger Model kits resemble Tamiya's in many ways.
