Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille: Add finer realism to your King Tiger build

For workshop-focused modellers and military armour fans, the Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille brings a noticeable step up in surface fidelity. This etched grille detail replicates the delicate patterns seen on the period vehicle, giving your 1/35 King Tiger a more convincing appearance whether for display or competitive modelling.

Fine photo-etched accuracy

The Tamiya 1/35 King Tiger Etched Grille is produced in photo-etched metal to capture small geometry and thin edges that injection-moulded plastic cannot reproduce. The fine relief and precise perforations let modellers reproduce authentic grille textures, improving scale realism on close-up inspection and in photographs.

Finish that stands out on the display shelf

Fitting the etched grille refines the silhouette and surface detail of a completed King Tiger, making it a stronger piece in any collection. The upgrade improves both the visual depth and the perceived authenticity, which is useful for dioramas, showcases, or judged displays.

Specifications

  • Scale - 1/35
  • Material - photo-etched metal
  • Assembly - glue required
  • Compatibility - intended for Tamiya King Tiger kits
This part is designed for the Tamiya King Tiger family. Fit on vintage kit releases is usually good, but check mounting points and trim as needed for older mouldings.
Tweezers, a sharp hobby knife, fine files and a small tube of modelling cyanoacrylate or solvent cement are recommended. A bending tool or flat needle-nose pliers helps with precise folds.
Prime the metal first with a suitable metal primer, then use thin layers of paint. Consider a dark wash to bring out perforations and light dry-brushing to highlight edges.
