After a longer break from modelling, I finished the second model of Jagdtiger 314 with the Porsche suspension. As the original tank had no Zimmerit coating, and was abandondened in March 1945, I decided to rebuilt the model, depicting the famous scene of the vehicle in a ditch near to a small tree besides a road.

I reused the two US soldiers from the original scene, and added my first attempt of a wire-made tree, which turned out to be quite time-consuming, as on the original pictures from early spring, the tree has no leaves, calling for many branches to work out… with foliage, these kind of trees are presumably less work.
