Tamiya 35179 - 1/35 Tiger I Fine Mesh Grille Set for Modellers  [35179]

Refine your build with the Tamiya 35179 1/35 photo-etched grille kit

Serious modellers looking to add authentic surface detail will value the Tamiya 35179 photo-etched grille set. These metal components replicate the fine meshwork of Tiger I cooling grilles and are intended to complement Tamiya 1/35 Tiger I Late Version (35146), Sturmtiger (35177) and Tiger I Mid Production (35194) model kits.

Why use photo-etched parts on a scale tank

Photo-etch delivers a level of thinness and definition not achievable with injection-moulded plastic. The grilles bring realistic shadowing and sharper contours, helping your model look convincing at display scale.

Fitting and model selection guidance

Note that the Tamiya 35179 set is not suitable for the 35056 Tiger I or the 35216 Tiger I Early Production kits. Make sure to trial-fit parts and prepare attachment points carefully to preserve the scale lines of your base kit.
