Finaly, first video after me moving. Let's continue with the next Initial Tiger Tank: Chassis No. 250002, Tiger 111 of the schwere Panzerabteilung 502 in its deployment on the eastern Front at the end of 1942. This first episode will cover building Dragon 6252, the inital release, into one of the first ever Tiger tanks. Next episode I'll finish it as an actually grey Tiger.

Corrections: will be updated when needed, I'm always open for debate and willing to learn.
According to Tiger1.info 111 did run two left-hand-side tracks at some point, no date is given though.
The rectangular air intake cover on the engine hatch is fictional and should be replaced with a part included in Dragons mid and late tigers: sprue P part 27: tiger1.info/EN/Box-air-intake...

Great work! I enjoyed seeing your changes on this build. Now it makes me wonder if I missed any on my own build :)
Thank you Evan, these Tigers changed a lot between september and January - your Tiger 100 has lot's of small features being very different from 111.
Excellent video & beautiful work with the old Dragon kit! I am impressed with the research you have done & I learned a lot about the unique features on the initial Tiger I tanks. Thank you! 👍👍
Thank you Derek. Glad you got something out of it : )
Excellent job done Kai! Your attention to detail and historical accuracy are out of this world. Looking forward to see the next update. Thanks for sharing, take care and keep up the good work my friend.
Thank you : ) I'm pretty sure I make some mistakes with the accuracy. To it's facinating captureing these individual vehicles as good as possible.
@@Tankbrusher You must be kidding.. i always build out of the box and sometimes deviate from the instructions to follow the rule of cool. Seeing you put so much research in what exactly a tank had is impressive.
Good to hear you are still around man! Eagerly waiting for your next video! Sorry to hear you have "bugs"!
Thanks for looking after me mate ; ) I'll continue regular content here again this weekend, next build video will be up in 2 weeks though - I've to catch up with a review first.
Great video with wonderful information. Nice review and video quality. Great job kyle!!
Thanks Rick.
Another Tiger!!! Looks great, can’t wait for painting!
You are the same everry rivet matters
Awesome video Kai, thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forwarded to the next. Hopefully I can build along with you when the RFM one comes out :)
Thanks Mike, pretty sure you can and teach me some dirt effects ; )
Sehr interessant! Da gibt es so viele spezifische Unterschiede bei den Tigern und anscheinend besonders bei den ganz frühen Fahrzeugen, das alles rauszufinden und dann auch noch zu berücksichtigen ist alle Anerkennung wert. Das werde ich mir mal hier abspeichern, falls ich mir auch wieder so einen Tiger vornehmen sollte :)
Dein Modell ist super und ich bin gespannt wie es weitergeht.
Danke Michi. Ich freu mich schon darauf die ersten Tiger fertig im Regal zu haben - da schaut quasi jeder anders aus.
@@Tankbrusher Da wir uns ja vor längerem darüber unterhalten hatten: Die Chancen, dass die Internationale Modellbaumesse in Ried/Österreich tatsächlich stattfindet, stehen gegenwärtig ziemlich gut. Ich schätze mal, man wird dieses Jahr zumindest nicht viele Gelegenheiten für eine solche große Veranstaltung haben. Kannst dir ja überlegen, ob dir der Weg nicht zu weit ist :D Die Tickets sollte man am besten schon online kaufen, sicher ist sicher. Nun weißt du bescheid :)
Hi Kai again many thanks for the detailed information on these early Tiger's something that I may have missed. I also have this kit in my stash so no excuse for me.. take care and look forward to your next video. 👍😎
Hi Paul, thanks the comment, very nice to read from all you guys again. This kit was fun for getting into tigers. Dragon did a great job when they came out with that one.
@@Tankbrusher Yes Kai Dragon did a good job in there day but things have moved on and I now prefer Rye Field Models but no doubt they have there minor errors but I think in my opinion they are the new Dragon and worth the money. but I still have a lot of dragon kits in my stash to get through. thank you for taking the time to reply. 👍😎
@@paulhumphriesz4557 Aside from nostagy comparing ths one and the RFM one, Dragon did much better with the 1st. release. Do want to like both brands and there is no question about RFM being better value for money by a long shot. the next two build are based on RFM Tigers and I look forward to cover RFM releases now regular since they have beautiful detail as model kits and ppl do watch the videos about them.
Schön gemachtes Video zu Deiner Arbeit am Initial Tiger I. Die Ätzteile machen sich sehr gut und dazu noch die eingefügten Schweißnähte,
so kommt der Tiger zu einer schönen Detaillierung. Deine eigenentworfenen Ketten sind eine tolle Sache, Kai.
Ich denke da noch eine schöne Lackierung drauf und es hat sich in jedem Fall gelohnt. Wünsch Dir eine gute Woche. Gruß, Joachim
Danke Dir Joachim. Die ebenfalls eine schöne Woche. Grüße Kai
Awesome model. Great build sir. Tiger 1 is my fav tank of ww2.
Thanks Copper69.
Great video and really like the historical facts woven into your narration. Keep building for you there will always be the "experts" who criticize ✌❤✌
Thanks mate. Experts advice and I'm happy to listen. Next episode there will be a few small adjustments needed to make it accurate.
Hurry my friend! Half a month has already lapsed and the front line is collapsing! We need your Tiger ready now!
It's almost there, got again out of schedule. It'll be up next week alongside a review I'm overtime as well. Never being able to catch up on demand is very well fitting. Just delay the offenive till mid next year xD
@@Tankbrusher "Das war ein Befehl!" Haha joking. Understandable. Will wait for your next video.
ot long since found your channel. Enjoying the vids. My aim is to build every variant of the Tiger I in 1/35th.
Once again a well-made video from you, I also liked the explanation very much. You are one of the few modellers who also build a Dragon Tiger from the first edition ;).
My early and late Dragon Tigers from the first edition are well protected in storage ;).
Watching you makes me want to build my early Border Model Tigers with your resin tracks, as the kit tracks are segment tracks where you still have to fit the guide teeth yourself. I am curious about your paint job.
cu Markus
Hey Markus, I bought 6252 for pure nostalgy, but it's a very impressive kit nevertheless. I do have a few more modern Dragon Tigers as well. Border Models Tiger does need a lot of attention and replaceing the tracks will generate some spare time used to fix some other parts : ) This one will be grey, me hugging Tank Art 1 - the RFM one will be winter camo.
2:15 ah yes, the new 1/5000 model of Trackograd. Very nice detail on the windows of the building blocks.
Mate, looking at the new stuff I printed today - 3dp and me are getting to seriously bad ass results now. xD
Hi Kai, it's nice work. Actually, Dragon #6252 at 2015 is legend kit now. But I'm really looking forward to RFM initial Tiger.
Anyway, 3D printed track is absolutely excellent. Many manufacturers will release 3D printed track of Tiger I soon.
So, I'm looking forward to them too. Have good time and stay safe my friend. Best wishes, NOB
Thank you NOB. I do want my Dragon and RFM kit to look very different in the end. Both are high quality kits, no question.
Hi, what books or websites do you get al the specific information about the tiger. Love your work
Hi Leon, sry for answering late. The best free source of information is tiger1.info For books there is "the book" by Jentz and Doyle DW to Tiger I and a good phot series by Volker Ruff. I do own most of the other books about this topic, therefore it's a lot cross checking different sources - I named the best entry point everything else is supplementary and building up on these. Wolfgang Schneider is good resource as well for the operational overview, Spielberger has a good book as well - Jentz cleaned that one up in the one I mentionend before.
Great video. Where do you get the tweezers???
Thanks mate. That's a generic 12pcs china made set I bought on Amazon.
Looking forward for your build of the border's initial tiger. Ordered and waiting it. BTW, could you recommend any modern tigers/panthers book? Preferably in english.
DW to Tiger 1 is the book for the technical side. ATM I like the "Der Tiger" series by Volker Ruff (they are German and English) he is doing a picture based diary of single a batallions (Abteilungen). Schneider: Tigers in Combat 1&2 or the German original Tiger im Kampf I;II;III; Normandi Tiger, is a standard as well. Panther is more tricky, there is "germany's panther tank the quest for combat supremacy" and 4 Panzer Tracts booklets again by Jentz for the technical side and more appreance by factory focused "panther external appearance & design changes" atm I don't have any Panther book I'd recommend for the combat diray.
@@Tankbrusher Thanks! These books turned out to be so expensive. I'm disappointed.
@@CatEatsDogs you didn't tell me the need to be cheap :p These books by V.Ruff should be within the 30€ region, it doesn't get much cheaper unfortunatly.
@@Tankbrusher plus 20 for delivery. ~50€ each. I though they are cheaper when asking. Will think if I need them)
@@CatEatsDogs Well that sucks. I had something similar with Panzer IV not long ago. If you buy one Tiger book, DW to Tiger 1 is worth it my opinion. Nearly all relavant changes are pointed out there. Schneiders' Tigers in combat is a new english edition available for lot less money than the hard covers are sold for.
how has the evolution paint brush been since you've got it? Was it worth the high price tag?
I'd not overpay for this kit since RFM 5075 is giving you the same tank with better tracks. I'd not go as far as calling 6252 obsolete, yet it basicly is. Both Dragon and RFM do have about the same amount of mistakes (even the same parts: Mud guards rear, Air intake cover, road wheels). If you're interessted I publish the RFM one soon. V1 is next, RFM after, before I'll paint them.
Schönes Video! Hab den Bausatz auch vor ca. einem halben Jahr gemacht für meinen "111" Tiger. Obwohl ich recht viel recherchiert habe vorher, hab ich wohl doch nicht alles richtig gemacht. Vor allem die Erkenntnis, dass nur die Nebelwerferhalterungen angebracht wurden und nicht die Nebenwerfer selbst hat weh getan, haha. Aber darf ich fragen, woher du die Info hast? Freu mich auf deine Videos zur Bemalung und Alterung!
111 ist einer der ersten vier Tiger, in Volker Ruff Der Tiger Volume 2, S.5 ,,Die Halterungen für die Nebelwurfbecher waren ... angeschweißt aber noch ohne die Wurfbecher ausgeliefert worden". Weiter im Buch sieht man ihn dann später wieder mit Nebelwurfbecher im Januar, die Frontplatte an der Fahrersehklappe ist zu dem Zeitpunkt schon geflickt, ob er aber da schon seinen neuen Turm hat, kann ich gerade nicht sagen. Ich versuche meinen so zu bauen wie er in den ersten zwei Monaten ausgesehen hat.
@@Tankbrusher Ok, danke dir für die Info. Werde ich mir mal anschauen das Buch.
Hi!Sag mal die Ketten im Video,druckst Du die selbst?Bin Tiger-Fan,wenn ja müssen wir uns mal unterhalten.Tolle Videos...Mfg und Frohe Ostern!
danke Dir. Ich selbst mache nichts mit physikalischen Produkten. Warstat 3D is ein Lizensnehmer in DE und selbst modellbauer. Was ich von ihm auf der EME gesehen hab, ist Oberklasse. Kannst mich jederzeit unter Tankbrusher auf Insta oder via meinem Patreon erreichen. Hab den franz. Tiger 3D gescannt und ein volles Cad modell. Hab ein bissel Erfahrung mit Tiger zeug ; )
@@Tankbrusher na wo hast du denn die ketten her?mfg aus thüringen
@@downhillfan8331 Ich drucke meine eigenen Designs selbst. Ich drucke nur nicht für andere. Hab keine Druckfarm ; )
@@Tankbrusher das war deutlich.ok!
@@downhillfan8331 Ist nichtmal bös gemeint. Man kann eine sache richtig machen - design oder vertrieb., Hab mich gegen Produktion/Vertrieb entschieden. Mittlerweile stammt so einiges von dem was man global als Zurüststatz kaufen kann aus meinem "Design Studio". Mache das ja nicht vollzeit.
You should sell the files for those tracks online
Thanks, I'll look into it. Atm all files are on Patreon.
Hallo, ... wo kann man die STLs erwerben?
Gruß
Hi, derzeit nur via Patreon. Tiger Teile kommen in den kommenden 2 monaten wieder da ich Gerade RFM 5078 baue. Andere Quellen sind leider noch nicht spruchreif.
@@Tankbrusher Danke für die Antwort
TANKBRUSHER WHERE ARE YOU!?
Still around and more buisy than ever : ) I was locked out of studio for almost 6weeks now with the "proof it's you" bug sending me in circles.
Was that the one at Hitlers 50th Birthday?
Not that I know. This one was delivered from the factory to Fallingbostel's baracks as far as I know. For demonstrations the 3 V-series vehicles are better candidates - not an expert though. In April '42 only V1 was "ready" in April '43 already about 200 vehicles were produced. This one was in the east at that time - therefore I guess this one never was at any birthday presentations for the person in question.
Can you train your english pronunation? it is hardly bearable even for Germans.
can't be bothered, honestly.
Cool bleiben.
