	Angelo M Picardo is here with his BIG 1/16th Tiger 1. This particular Tiger 1 started life as an RC toy and was redone and super detailed by Angelo using all scratchbuilt pieces to represent a Tiger 1 as it may have appeared during the battle of Kursk. Angelo added battle damage to the armour and gave his Tiger 1 a full weathering job. The RC parts still function much to his cats dismay and the gun even fires BB's........gotta' love that. Thanks for sharing Angelo.....your Tiger 1 started my day with a big grin.
