Welcome to the forum. It's a friendly place with a fountain of knowledge. If you have any questions, just ask. Remember the only stupid question is one you don't ask. Some more details of your first tank purchase would be good, and we love photos. I say "first" as no matter how good your intentions, I don't think anyoe has stopped at one. It's very addictive hobby, and, to date, has no known cure ;D

Stewart Hi,
We are R/C Tank Warfare so if your small Tiger is Radio Controlled we are interested, and we welcome you to the fold.
We primarily model, build, and generally mess around with 1/16 scale but there is nothing to prevent any member of the Forum using a smaller or a larger scale.
I hope you enjoy the Forum and if you have any questions please feel free to ask them.
Shaun.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

:thumbup:

we did want a yellowish Tiger you know camouflage ;) but they all seem to be that funny blue grey
there was a few in 1/16 scale but always in blue 1/16 is just to big for the front room :)

I have photos hopefully I'll work out how to post them it's a good few years since I had a 1/16 Tiger ( I never liked that blue grey )

I'm going to have a good look at the instructions ref posting photo's ;)

I have seen loads of photos but not seen many in Blue grey,
my cousin has a collection of books on WW11 German tanks the pictures are superb there about £120 each way beyond my pension

I think there's about 4 in the set some of you folks may know them I said if he found an old torn one for a fiver to get it for me :crazy:

Hi STEWART763
Welcome to the best forum on the net.
You can never say too much or ask too many questions, everyone on here are extremely friendly if they do not know the answer to any question they sure will know someone who can.
A good mix from just starting out to very talented modellers, well-trusted traders all on this forum and only too willing to help you.
Just make sure before you buy to check out the bad guys (Blacklisted) :thumbdown: @) many have burned their fingers with them.
The. (Trusted traders list) good guys list :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: can be found on here too, you will get to know them, and they will get to know you too.

But I must add we do like photos of other members models any model, not just tanks, your truck Helicopter and trains there's a slot on the forum when you are ready to post them.
Enjoy and keep on playing.
We do not stop playing because we grow old.
We grow old because we stop playing.
