The kit proposed by Trumpeter company includes a plastic model kit of German heavy tank in 1:35 scale.

Pz.Kpfw.VI Tiger (Sd.Kfz.181) is a German heavy tank from the Second World War period. It was armed with an anti-tank 88mm KwK.36 L/56 gun with a reserve of 92 shells. The need to respond to the Russian construction of the T-34 tank, which successfully fought with older constructions, forced the Third Reich to install a modified version of the Flak 36 anti-aircraft gun in an armored vehicle. Serial production of this vehicle took place at Henschel factories, which won the tender to produce Tigers. The first copies took part in the fighting near Leningrad, however, they were characterized by high failure rates. From then on, it fought on all fronts and participated in the most important battles of the final phase of the war, including fighting during the African campaign. From 1943, Zimmerit was used to protect the vehicle against magnetic mines. The Tiger was used for building a Sturmtiger equipped with a 380mm rocket mortar and a technical security vehicle Bergepanzer Tiger.

The last production series of Tigers were equipped with steel wheels, in contrast to wheels with a rubber bandage. Used wheels were characterized by higher durability and lower failure rate.

Zimmerit is a special paste applied to the surface of the armor of German armored vehicles from the final period of the Second World War (from 1943 to 1944 years). The main task of the discussed protective-shell was to prevent the attachment of magnetic mines to the hulls of the vehicles, but also caused the disappearance of light reflections which provided additional camouflage. During the war, the following vehicles were covered using Zimmerit: Pz.Kpfw.III, Pz.Kpfw.IV, Pz.Kpfw.V Panther, Pz.Kpfw.VI Tiger / Tiger II, Elefant, Jagdtiger, Sturmgeschutz StuG.III / StuG.IV.

Plastic parts should be cut out of frames, fit together and glued according to the assembly instruction. You should paint the whole model using modeling paints according to the proposed paint scheme in the instruction. It is important to remember that some plastic parts require painting before gluing.
