david v Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi Guys, I have just started this kit and have found some good references but n some photos the seats and dash consul look a light grey, but in others it looks black, I would be grateful for any info as to the correct colour for this. Many thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knikki Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Just looked in the bits of info I have, The Tiger Tanks Osprey Vanguard series and Verlined book The German Tiger Tank. Both indicate that the seats were a red brown colour at a guess leather as I know it was used for seating in many german vehicles. As for the console on the right of the driver I think it was a dark grey colour possible black grey like the visor mounts that were in front of the driver. As seats were stood on and used a hell of a lot I guess the would weather fairly quickly, especially on the Russian front so would make the seats look very faded and worn.

Canuck63 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Knikki,I think that the Tiger Dave's talking about never saw he Russian Front...not before the early 2000s at least! When I first read the header I was taken aback by the fact that I wasn't aware that Meng made THAT Tiger but then it occurred to me that it was the Russian 4x4 SUV the Tiger Dave's asking infos about!

Tarheellaw Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 How is the russian tiger kit? My local model shop person said it had little detail? True or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david v Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 Its a great kit, plenty of detail straight from the box, mine is an oob build, if you wish to spend money on etch up grades ET Models do an exterior and interior sets. Get one you wont regret it. Xato models also do one but the parts breakdown is far more complex.Mike did an in depth review on here but not sure wher to find it. Hope this helps.
