Well, why not? Tiger Is are a dime a dozen. Tiger Is as portrayed in a movie are interesting and unique.
That's a little like asking, why paint a miniature of William Wallace as portrayed by Mel Gibson? There are minis of him in the war garb and all, and they sell well -- movies are part of our cultural life, a big part, and portraying things from them is interesting.
This is particularly interesting, as they made a pretty good effort to mock up a Tiger, and the appearance of these faux Tigers is intriguing and a worthy modeling subject, IMO.
If I can't wrangle one of these at a reasonable price, I may do a "Tiger" from A Bridge Too Far -- finally an excuse to build a Leopard I! Or maybe a "German panzer" from Patton -- M48 painted in sand with the Balkan cross. :) |
