Eduard 35442 Tiger I Late Zimmerit

Andrew Dextras

Eduard continues to release photo etched zimmerit sets for modellers who are looking for an alternative to doing your own zimmerit using putty with this release for the Tamiya Tiger I Late.  Again, I will have to see this set under a coat of paint before rendering final judgment.  Eduard provides one large sheet which features parts to cover the vertical portions of the tank which received zimmerit.  Be careful with part #25 however as most Tiger didn’t carry zimmerit on this horizontal plate above the transmission.  Eduard also provides 2 small etched "trowels" for making your own pattern using putty on parts of the mantlet. 

The zimmerit pattern is consistent throughout the set, be careful as most Tiger Is carried a much wider and heavier pattern on their turrets.  Check your references before proceeding.
