Hello Michael ... What I did was to buy one of Dragons new 2007-2008

1/35 scale tiger kits . They have all the correct welds in the right places . Plus it is handy as a builders model.

I sense sarcasm. :lol:

Michael, look at all of Dale's posts regarding his Tiger build. great weld reference. As I have not built my Tiger yet, I didn't feel qualified to respond when you first posted but read with interest for future reference.

As far as views to response ratio? get used to it. As Adrian said, It's a forum open to public viewing.

kind regards

Tim

There were two good reference book that a few of us gotten during the introduction of the armortek tiger, it shows all the patterns of the welds. I need to dig for the book and provide you with the name and publisher.

Meanwhile, can some one recall?

Hi Michael,

Just managed to dig this out over the weekend....when I found the time :? Most if not all the old timers working on their Mid to Early Tigers recommended this book as one of the most informative among the two, IMO. There is a wealth of information comparing the different versions. Lots of drawings, pics and details. More than enough for your questions on weld marks.

The reference book: The Modeler's Guide to the Tiger Tank - A complete and comprehensive guide to modeling the Tiger I and Tiger II in 1/35 scale
