Heng Long 1/16 Tiger 1 - conversion


Recommended Posts

I've had this Heng Long Tiger for a while now.

It's always struck me, that with a few careful mods this could look far more authentic and realistic with the correct colour scheme, weathering and markings.

So The Bovington 'Fury' Tiger is what it will be!

The stock - Heng Long:

All the individul pieces are going to be detailed as authentically as per the Bovington Example.

More Progress:

All parts were removed and then bonded together with all seems completely removed. lot of work

Looks a bit green if taken with IPhone - Small lenses and poor lighting don't help, better pictures of the finished article.
