Glad you like it! Thanks mate

Nice job! I found the paint a pain to use. But persevered, and it eventually adhered to the surface. 👍

Thanks mate,Yeah it can be a bugger, I thought it might be oils on the parts,and I've since washed kits,but I think it's just the airfix starter set paints, the humbrol spray paint though I would recommend as you get about 3 or 4 kits out of a 6 quid can so works out similar cost to paint tins

@scalestuff1066 some of the starter set paints seem to be better than others. I thought at first I'd not washed the sprues properly, but the metallic for the tracks was just as bad. I'll bear the spray in mind. 👍

I think, but am not sure, that it might be down to how long its been in storage or in the shop, I know from my model store that sometimes kits sit on shelves for years before they get brought sometimes, also, they can be in box's out back before going on the shelves that adds to the time that paints settled, My local hobby shop FOUND, like the whole 90's range of airfix models just in a box no one had looked in

A decent little kit, but like yourself, it wouldn't take long to build but as you say it's aimed at new builders. Thank you for posting a great video with great content.

I can't believe how crude this kit is. Airfix have an advantage over every other model company doing Tigers : there's an actual Tiger in a museum in their country, they can visit it and even arrange to survey it. But instead there are makers in China producing much, much better Tigers than this.

With airfix and a lot of model companies, they simply buy old toolings because its cheaper,think a lot of the new airfix kits are made by academy.Tamiya surveyed a lot of the kits at Bovington tank museum, one of the halls is called tamiya hall.but as time goes on they are having people go out and scan the vehicles.One of my friends does a bit of that for them,so I imagine it will get better over time
