I have a few Tanks, I want to customize but I can't decide which versions to make.
I have one 21st Tiger I
One Panzer IV (No Side Skirts)
Two FOV Tigers one the way
I know I want at least one White Wash Tank, and a Tri-Color Tiger w/ Zimmermit, but I'n not sure what to do with the rest. Any input or Ref. Pics would be appreciated.

Oh white was is fun!
You could make a sturm tiger?
OR take the wheels of the 21st tiger, put the FOV tiger wheels on that making it a mid production with no zimmert and then put the 21st wheels on the fov tiger hull and make a late production tiger with zimmert!

I never really cared for that tank, looks too boxy. If, I wanted to mod one that heavily, I'd go for one of the Hun's Stug kits or Jagtigers. Would an Eastern Front Tiger have Whitewash over Zimmermit?

for the panzer iv there is a whole potpourri of options....a varitable cornucopia...
If you don't have one of PH's wirbelwind kits, you could get one. Very cool vehicle. Failing that you could do a stug iv.....i did one without even building much of the superstructure. Just took the turret off, made a very basic superstructure, stuck the gun barrel on the front and then heavily, and i mean heavily, draped it in foilage made from little plastic plants. Looks great, just like so many pics i've seen and took very little time and effort to make.
If you're feeling ambitious you could do a hummel with it.....or you could send it to me cause i have lots of good uses for it.

Andrew, I think I may have missed something regarding the Wespe...

Oh ok.........I haven't had much to say on the subject because I can't find the darn thing.

I'll take a look at the other threads.
