This is incredible...you should start your own WW2 range! Those conversions are incredibly good and the painting is spot on!

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you gents. Not in the mood of sculpting i desided to do some modeling. The only model i had in 1/56 was an early Tiger I diecast from Hobby Master that since i found that there was one early Tiger i in Berlin in 1945 fited my late war battlegroupe. Then i started searching for an appropriate camo sceme and found this beautiful beast :

So instead of just painting a new camo desided to do a more serious modeling , strip the beast naked and bring the detail of the diecast to a more acceptable standards while firm enough to withstand wargaming.

The model after removing all the track fenders and side mounted track cables







I ve started with the rear armour plate and now it looks like this
