Greetings from Ireland
Hi guys
My name is John, I'm interested in WW2 German Tanks. I've returned to modelling them after 30 odd years. I'm looking forward to hopefully being able to ge help with specific tank, unit details etc... I'm also interested in photography and my passion is taking pictures of wild tigers, so you can see there's an association between German tanks and the wild cats that's been there for many years. I also follow Formula 1 racing.

Re: Greetings from Ireland
Hi John and welcome to the site!
We have some serious German armor experts here, as well as some serious model makers so you've come to the right place. I'd also enjoy seeing some of your photography, if you are willing to share.

Hi Jim, McCoy
Here's a picture of one live Tiger taken late October 2006. He also featured in BBC wildlife program recently about tigers. This kitty was only about 2 years old at the time. John Last edited by Eismann; June 15th, 2008 at 12:46 PM.

Re: Greetings from Ireland
Welcome John, whilst I'm not a big fan of WW2 German armour (say that very quietly around here!!) I do like the F1 and your pictures of furry tigers sounds interesting!!

Cheers, yep, what jim posted, you will find a good home here and a great group of people, just check the chat room once in a while. I've ben a bit busy lately, but it is usually pretty fun!!  (think late-night). OOPS, depending on your time zone that is....... TRDG Tom

Re: Greetings from Ireland
TRDG, I particularly like all German Armour named after 'big cats'. The Panthers, and Tigers really impress me, the bigger the cat the more I like it. They're engineering marvels, maybe not the most practical tanks, but they have the WOW factor. I'll check out the chat room soon.
Thanks for the welcome Hagen, nice to be here. John
