Late 1990’s at the AMPS show in Harve de Grace, MD this kit debuted. Tread-Heads were stunned by Chesapeake Model Design’s clean and nicely cast July 45 King Tiger conversion. Billy Miley really nailed quality & state of the art accuracy back in the day.
At the time, I hated resin in general after tangling with nightmare AEF Designs worthless junk. However, the CMD kit was most impressive! So I bought one:)
July hull had a fair number of differences planned from a production King Tiger. Hull hatch transmission area, cooling vents & three hinges on engine cover plus other stuff etc.
Note Pilzen etc
Really need to build this bad boy sometime…
Hope that’s helpful or at least interesting to take a look at.
