ICM 1/32nd Tiger Moth
By Leon Wohlert
Here is my Tiger Moth No.25 (Polish) EFTS.
This is a great little kit. Very good fit and really no caveats.
The rigging was done at a very early stage (per the instructions) and they were in the way a lot. Next time I would leave the control-cables rigging until last and only do the wings early.
I painted the wings facing surfaces before assembly. This meant a lot of touch-up was needed after gluing the wings and cleaning up the joints. Still missing are the wing brackets which ICM omitted. Line the prop shaft with some Tamiya tape, it sits very wobbly in the slot. I noticed it too late.
Added to the kit:
- Resin wheels
- Small fry scratch parts for guiding the elevator cables and a fuel line from the tank to the engine
- All markings made with masks
- Stenciling made on laser printer and clear decal paper
For more information, check out my build thread in the Work in Progress forum.
Enjoy!
