Time for a new 1/35th scale Ferdinand Build. This is Dragon Models No.6495, I attempted to build it years ago, but was not happy with the result. The Rebuild of it will show it as a member of the heavy tank destroyer unit 653 in late 1943 after the failure of Operation Citadel.
This Episode is part of a series of Builds based on the Porsche Version of the German Tiger Tank, I will go over the build and camouflage in this video as well as how to deal with clear periscopes.
Books used:
Ak Interactive - Real Colors of WWII
Gun Power 22 - Ferdinand Elefant Vol.1

Michael Fröhlich - Der andere Tiger
Michael Fröhlich - Ferdinand - best techinical descriptions.
Karlheinz Münch - The Combat History of German Heavy Anti-Tank Unit 653 - best overall read about the "practical" side of things.
