Very well done. It is so well done that I can tell the tiger just got off of a rail road car as the crew has not had time to reinstall the outside road wheels.

Really nice work with the surroundings and background; you drew the tanks exceptionally well too.

Realy good work but this tank looks more like a Panthanter, the Tiger tank was more angular.

It's not a Panzer V "Panther" (Sd. Kfz. 171) but a Panzer VI Ausf. B or "Tiger II" (SdKfz 182), other name "KΓΆnigstiger" (VK4503).
The Panther is a medium tank, with a 75mm KwK 42 L/70 gun for a weight of 44.8 tons.
The Tiger II (this tank) is an heavy tank, with a 88mm KwK 43 L/71 gun for a weight of 70 tons.

The Tiger II is a sort of "improved" Panther, with the same sloped armor.
That's true, the Tiger had no sloped armor but it's not the same tank.
