My first threads for in-progress build... ^_^ ^_^ ^_^

Bought two kits; one from Miniature Hobby (AFV) and second from ebay (Dragon)

1/35 AFV Tiger 1 Late Production

About the kit:

Among the Tiger 1 model that appeared in the market, AFV is one of the most accurate kits and comparable with Dragon and Tamiya. For the price, quite cheaps. Only the main weakness for this kit is tank track threads, quite thicks.
But luckly the AFV produce replacement for this tracks thread, single tracks which very accurate one...

Pros: Have metal barrel, engine decks metal cover, accurate tools and value for money.
Cons: Tank tracks threads.

Quite good kits and accurate replicas of real Ferdinand, German Heavy Tank Destroyer with first combat action at the Battle of Kursk which saw it main drawbacks, nor mg at the full for protection again infantry. The kits that i have had missing "C" sprue which contain gun parts... Erkkkkkkkkkkk

AFV come up with green color and good quality molds, rare to see manafucturing defects compare to other kits.

For Tiger 1, i used Tamiya putty to stimulate zimmerit anti magnetic mine...
