I am making a Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger and I need some background information on it and any detailing tips if you could help me and if you could get me some Links would really help Thanks from helping me everybody it has really improved my modeling.[8D]
What kind of info do you need? just pics of the tank itself? or what?
achtungpanzer.com has good info and pics
“A Modeler’s Guide to the Tiger Tank” that I mentioned before is a good book to start with…which version do you wish to build? The Initial, Early, Mid, or Late Production? I’m embarking on a bit of a Tiger project myself–planning to build all versions and the Tiger (P) soon. Here is a list of a boatload of links–historical infomation, model galleries, and specialty websites that cater to Armor and Tiger enthusiasts, as well some other forums you might find helpful…

There are many books: Squadron’s “Tiger in Action”, Osprey’s New Vanguard Series Tiger I and modelling the Tiger I
O.T. Scer16, what’s with the North Africa G.B.? I never heard anything about it.
Hey, Tankergeoff, I like the http://www.military.cz/panzer/index_en.htm
site–the music is great–straight from “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”…ah, memories…
The info is great, too…
Osprey Publishing’s “Panzer Modelling” (that’s “modelling” with two “L’s” in good British tradition) is a must-have, in my humble opinion…
Germany’s Tiger Tanks vol 1 and 2 by Jentz and Doyle are the best references out there from a technical viewpoint with excellent scale drawings of all models and good reference pics as well.
You have a lot of posts up there you should be thankful for
You could have got them quicker if you tried a search engine like Google
A bit of advice
On your title you should add what the post is about, not just Sherman or Tiger
If you see that you have 3 posts called Sherman and 1 called Tiger
Try and add more info in your title
As stated in one of your Sherman posts some one said narrow your Question down
And your get a lot more help
and always try to go back and thank those that went out of there way to say thanks
