Got this John.



Might be of some help as there are loads of photos of a real one.


Although this of the plastic kit in 1/16 scale the photos would be helpful. If you want any photos just say. Looks like Allen has found just abloy every other book !!!!:surprised:

+1 on the Haynes. Lots of restoration shots from Bovington.

Does the Haynes have various paint scheme colours in it including winter Camo ?

Not really. There are several photos of complete Tigers, but remember the camo was applied in the field so each one would be different.

Take a look at this: TIGERFIBEL. It's not cheap, but I bought the Pantherfibel and it's an amazing reading with lot of infos about what the tank crew should know.
BTW, on the Tank museum homepage you'll find the Haynes book named by Pete at a very interesting price.

If you want it free, scans are on this page together with lots of others of original manuals.

However, though it’s definitely interesting, I don’t think it holds much information useful to the modeller.
