Tiger I Ausf. H2, 7.5cm KwK42

[rtvmodeler]

Hello friends!

I am sharing with all you one of my last models finished in 2019. I hope you like it:

This is the Tiger I Ausf. H2, 7.5cm KwK42 from Dragon in 1/35th scale. This Tiger I Ausf. H2 was a prototype by the Henschel company. Only a wooden mock-up of the turret was ever made, as Henschel eventually decided to focus on the H1 type in late 1941 and the turret with the 7.5 cm gun was discarded.

Very well-done and interesting model. I didn't know such a beast existed, in reality or kit form.

Hello Mike!

Thanks for your kind comments!. This type of model was based in the wooden model 1:1 of an unfinish proyect, the allies found it with some planes; in my work in progress you can see the original wooden model and his History:

Great looking modell. When I saw it first it looks like a Panther turret on a Tiger...

Very nicely done! I agree with Rodolfo, when I first saw this, I was curious as to what a panther turret was doing on a tiger!. All in all very nice!
