Well it’s started

Post by Ragnar »

Sure nuff it’s started :haha: found this paperback on Amazon.
Great starter book for an Tank novice like myself.on skimming through this book find lots of information on Tiger 1s and 2s lots and lots of prototype pictures of both Tiger 1s and King tigers. Most in color drawings Then there’s a nice section on modeling them though most talked about and shown are the smaller scales 1/72 & 1/35th but for those liking detail it pleases.
For a first tank book think I done gooood! :D

Now that you've got the book, you need a King Tiger. Once you've got a King Tiger you might as well get a Jagdtiger. Then maybe an early Tiger 1 and then a late Tiger 1 and then .... @) @) :haha: :haha:
