Hello,
I’m currently building the Takom 1/35 King Tiger Initial Kit 2096. Working on the turret and the mantles seems to stick out from the turret causing a substantial gap when i attach the gun barrel. Looking at pictures of production series Porsche turreted KT’s it appears that the mantle is pretty close almost touching the front of the turret. Is the Takom kit wrong in this feature, or did the initial KT’s mantlet stick out further? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.
Erik
