Hello,

does anybody knows, where I can get this book?

The modeller's guide to the Tiger Tank - Patrick A. Stansel, Military Miniatures in Review, Ampersand Publishing Company.

Thanks

You can try Amazon. There might some used copies floating around.

With google an patience you might find some in small hobby shops.
I was lucky to find a brand new one, at the original price in http://kustommodels.com.
Guy speaks english and could pay vis PayPal.

I really love it along with its partner,Modeling the Jagdpanzer which covers Hetzer up to Jagdtiger.

Tino, its been long out of print. Look on ebay or amazon one may turn up for sale. I got mine in 2003 and havent seen them since.

Tino,

I suggest you contact David Bryden for Tiger I info:

Wow,I just checked Ebay and Amazon,people want $199-399 for it.No way is it worth that much.Just crazy.

You can have mine for $ 300 though

Hi

Well something you should bear in mind, although this is a fine publication, it was compiled several years ago, using the kits available at that time. Since then we have had several new ones produced and as such the relevance to available kits might not be as great as it was when first published.

The best reference is Achtung Panzer No. 6 (Tiger I) by Model Graphix. you can get it for $49.95 from RZM.com

I got mine from chapters in the great white north I thnk....or maybe from small soldiers, but they're no longer in business. But as was mentioned above, it's a bit archaic now, what with all the newer, more accurate versions of Dragon kits on the market. I still flip through the book now and then as the details and examples are well documented, but I could do the same with Steve Davies build here on site, or Mr Brydon's website etc...

Good luck, whichever way you go...

As an alternative, which I believe to be stil the definitive work, may I suggest the Jentz & Doyle book 'Germany's Tiger tank: DW to Tiger I'. While not a modelling book (so it doesn't go out of date when new kits are released) it is all derived from primary sources and the outcome of decades of research. A cheaper option is the same authors' Osprey Vangard title on the Tiger I, although the format limits the content compared to the larger one. The larger one is on Amazon (for example) at under USD47 with free shipping. It's always the first one I check for Tiger I queries, although I also have the AP one.

That Steve Davies never finishes his build logs !

True you might consider it out of date, but it's still a good source for learning technique.

Most of us never finish our build logs....

Agree. One article I like is the Tiger I prototype built from the Tamiya Afrika kit. Me building one is another story though...
