Yea so for the past 20 days I was finishing up this Edward "Weekend Edition" Spitfire - not sure where they come up with this weekend non-sense - took me three weeks - at an hour a day.

Humm, but was able to start of this finally - and I am still confident I'll finish in time - only got step one done this morning - so excited about the first Tiger...

Very nice. Is that an aftermarket barrel and muzzle break?

Breaking all kinds of speed records here - took me an hour to do those stupid smoke things and I am sure they are not right - I'm not a Tiger Tank Geek - but they don't look right to me.

Yes, that is an aftermarket Barrel. I read that the one that comes with this kit is actually about 2mm too long to be in scale - but really I got such a deal on this barrel I bought it.

Well the new barrel looks splendid. An excellent addition to the kit :th:
