All went well......no problems with the airbrush, lets see what it looks like in the morning.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SENT THE SHIPPING WITH YOUR ORDER.
Most of you have sent payment for the kit only.
The kit's shipping are averaging $16-$20 per kit
-----------------------Henschel-------------------Porsche---------------Jagdtiger
Normandy---------------x- Shipped !!-----------------------------------x no paint
Norman 88--------------x 2----1x Shipped !!
Maritime 96-------------x Shipped !!------------------------------------x no paint
Tank Ace ---------------x Shipped !!-----------------x-----------------------x
Grockwood--------------x-Shipped !!---------------------------------------x---
CW4USARMY -----------x-- Ready to ship
Canberra Paul----------x-- Shipped !!
Skypirate ---------------x-- full build ---100 % poured ready to build
Pierro of Italy-----------x--Shipped !!!
Zelda--------------------x---On deck------------------x-------------------------x
Grunt--------------------x + 1 On deck--------x 2 ?----------------------x 2 ?
When I have time ( every free minute ) it is taking about 1-1/2 days to make a kit. Some of the larger pieces need to cure out ( at least 3 days ) therefore I can not ship immediately.
These pieces if not cured will warp very easily.
So I am try to make them ahead of the smaller parts so they can cure. The Tiger kits actually seems easier to pour than the T-34 kit. Or it could just be my imagination.
The difference being I had extra time for the T-34 and I have almost no time to make the Tiger so I am doing a little every day after work.

Re: 1/18 King Tiger First Kits Shipping.
Norman 888 and Grunt.
Your kits went out on Monday and you should be getting them soon.
There is a chance that I forgot to include the screw that holds the aluminum barrel tube to the mount.
Let me know and I can send you the missing part . If indeed it is missing.
Robbie your kit is next then on to the full builds.
Then it is Jagdtiger time !!!!!!!!!!!!!
