Tamiya 1/16 King Tiger - Anyone Build It?

Apr 20, 2004 2 Replies

I'm going thru my instructions now and am curious as to how many of the screws needed for construction show up on the exterior and if so what means you used to hide them.



did you use CA, epoxy, etc. instead? I'm building a static model so strength is not an issue.


thx - Craig



I built it a year ago. Here is my way of constructing.

I've built mine in RC-state. That requires for the hull to be detachable from the runninggear. For this, 2 screws are on the engine deck that are visible.

Otherwise, most screws are hidden. Along the running-gear are screws on the underside of the tank visible where the suspension is fitted.

If you are going for a static one, you can leave of those screws on the engine-deck, fill the holes and glue the upperhull to the bracket.

Are you going to improve any detail on the tank or just build it from the box?
