hi guys
           my late Tiger is "205", from the 101st, i expect you all know it was wittmans assigned tank at the time of villiers bocage.
i do have a few photos of the real "205" and my interpretation isnt to far off,

ps thats an interesting breakdown of the regiment rivet'

Jest standard Tiger formation used by most of the Abteilun's with the exception of company commanders and command tanks some Abteilungs used slightly different numbers or letters and numbers some Abteilungs where also over strength in 1943 so would have had higher numbers in each platoon

just got an invite to join up ( thanks pat ) she,s still naked at the minute but that,ll change soon, thanks again for the invite..... 

Glad to have you aboard! Check the link up top to pick a suitable subject, the central headlight gives you some room to manuoever with the turret numbers
Not sure how we will assemble the unit right now, Paintshop Pro can do wonders tho

anyone know if they used porsche turreted KTs ??

I think 1st company sPzAbt 503 deployed porsche's in Normandy, but sSSPzAbt 501 never received any as far as I can tell. 503 fought alongside the Panzer Lehr Div around Caen, but I'm not sure that they were attached to the 1st SS Pz Corps like 101st sSSPzAbt, 12th SSPzDiv, Panzer Lehr and 217th StPzAbt (the unit I picked for my Sturmpanzer IV). Not that its any impediment to joining the 'extended family' of the unit

does the camo scheme need to be in-line with 101st  tigers ? coz i kinda like these ones, supposed to be from 102nd.........

maybe my porsche could be a "lender" lmao

heres my late tiger will be asking you guys for assistance on the detailing  ::) ::)


A bit more work to do

nice pic's of youre hull rob,  tony, i dont think it matters what camo you use, as long as the colours are right (artistic licence and all that) as long as the unit markings are right i think it will be ok using the camo scheme that you prefer
