Tankzone Project King Tiger (Porsche)
TankZone is provided
for tank enthusiasts by tank enthusiasts. We only supply tanks that
we run ourselves. We are currently converting this 1:16 Porsche-turreted
King Tiger tank with the Tamiya MF-1 multi-function pack to give it
the same functions as the Tiger 1 and M4 Sherman.

This 1:16 scale King Tiger is already in running order with
the optional rotation unit installed. Much of the details are
still missing. The chasis and running gear has been sprayed
dark green and the superstructure a coat of factory-fresh dark
yellow. It will eventually be spray-camouflaged to depict an
early model deployed during the aftermath of D-Day. |
