About product

Tiger I early series 1:48 (Hauler)

An aftermarket accessory in photo-etched sheet, not a kit. The set concerns the early production version of the heavy tank Tiger I and is cut for a particular kit, the Skybow one. It is made by the Czech firm Hauler. The particular areas the set covers are given in the enclosed instructions.

How the early series differed

The early machines had a cylindrical commander's cupola with vision slits, rubber-tired road wheels, fenders of a different shape and, in part of the production, also an additional set of air filters placed on the rear. Most of these elements are of thin sheet on the real machine, so on a model they are dealt with precisely by photo-etched parts.

Building tips

Photo-etched parts are brought into the build as it goes along, not only at the end. It therefore pays to go through the instructions before gluing the first plastic parts and to note where a plastic detail will have to be sanded away. Make the bends in a bending tool, fix the joints with thin cyanoacrylate and wipe any excess off at once. Degrease the metal before painting and spray over it with a thin primer.

Who the set is for

  • builders of the early version of this heavy tank
  • modelers who already have practice with photo-etched sets
  • those who want to refine the thin sheet-metal elements of a model
  • collectors building several variants of one machine

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

The most conspicuous features are the cylindrical commander's cupola with vision slits and the rubber-tired road wheels.

You do not. The set can be used in part, only on the places you want to refine.

As the build goes along. Go through the instructions before you start gluing plastic, so that you know where to remove a plastic detail.

Only after degreasing and with a primer. On bare smooth metal it rubs off easily.
