VI Tiger II Ausf.B
Tanks of sSSAbt 101(501)
Decal Sheet No. AXT35101
Review by Terry Ashley
Echelon Fine Details have released the first in a new series on the Tiger
II Ausf.B with this sheet providing markings for eight tanks of sSSAbt 101(501)
The decal sheet is again printed by Microscale and is of excellent quality
with clear well printed markings with good colour register and very thin carrier
film that is cropped close to the edge of the printed image that should react
well with any decal setting solution.
As mentioned the sheet has markings for eight vehicles which include
the turret numbers, unit insignia and a balkenkreuz as well as a selection
of generic turret numbers for 2nd and 3rd Company vehicles with additional
unit emblems in two sizes so you can basically make any vehicle from these
units.
The full colour instruction sheet is a feature of Echelon decals and
include three view illustrations of all eight vehicles to clearly show the
decal placement
as well as giving information on the camouflage scheme each was finished in.
The vehicles included on the sheet are:
- 1. Stabstiger "008" (hard edged "Ambush" scheme)
- 2. Tiger "113" of 1st Company (with Zimmerit)
- 3. Tiger "104" of 1st Company (with Zimmerit)
- 4. Tiger "204" of 2nd Company (hard edged "Ambush" scheme)
- 5. Tiger "222" of 2nd Company (hard edged "Ambush" scheme)
- 6. Tiger "213" of 2nd Company (hard edged "Ambush" scheme)
- 7. Tiger "313" of 3rd Company (hard edged "Ambush" scheme)
- 8. Tiger "332" of 3rd Company (soft edged camouflage scheme)
Conclusion:
Another well researched and present decal sheet with plenety of choices for
the finish of your model and the painting guides will be of valuable assistance.
Highly recommended
Thanks to Larry of Echelon
Fine Details for the review sample.
