****Note*** video talks about Turret 411 but see Part 3 as to why I changed it to 431.
Review and Build of Academy's 2007 Re-release of its 1995 Tiger 1 with internals - Early production. I purchased this in early 2015 as I was looking for a good base to start for a Tiger 1 Early that I could show off the interior. Originally it was going to be an 'out of the box' build but I decided to replace some selected parts. Also I was going to model the Tunisian Tiger however some of the decals are incorrect. After some research I decided on Wittmann's first Tiger 1 mount, turret number 431. There is some debate on the accuracy of the internals, however if so they are very minor as I have managed to obtain photos of inside a Tiger. Hope this is useful for people building Tigers.
This three part series discusses the build of the Academy model as well as correct paint schemes both internal of the Tiger as well as external for the Kharkov region. There is also some discussion of Wittmann.
If you like please share.
