I was driving down some mudded country lane the other day, and I had the idea that some of you might want to have a look at my great ride. So I pulled up and took a photo. There were some other motorists about when I stopped, but for some strange reason everyone on the road gives me a pretty wide berth, and so they took off rather quick. Just shows how polite people can be on the road, I guess.

This particular tank is based off schematics for the PzKpfw VI Tiger I tank, as well as various photographs of the tank. The plans and photographs mostly show the smoke discharge canisters, though some do not. As far as I can tell, with some brief research into the subject, they were added to the tank since production, but I do not know if they stopped putting them on at some point. So I say, yes they do.
No problem. Ask and ye shall receive.

I really don't follow why. How can you tell? They look like tubes to me. As far as I'm concerned they could be the holders for the crew's beer cans.
And I know some of those are modern, but I don't see why they would add those details if they were historically inaccurate, which they are not. And they are all 'legit' photographs.
