Here are a few I have

http://users.skynet.be/bulgecriba/laroche.htm
http://ardenne44.free.fr/
Some of these aren't in english so you may have to snoop around.
Also go poking around in the links, they may give you something too.

Hope these help.

Zach

A friend gave me a word document ( around 20 pages) with all links about modeling, WW2, WW1, german, allied, modern, italian, museums too much to name here.
I have posted this list a couple of times here on the forum and many people now have it. But if you are interested give me a PM with your E-mail adress and you get it ASAP

Hi Zach .......... I think you'll agree that you just can't beat a good book for W.W.II photo's.
The web just don't compare ! I would of given you a bunch of re-enactor sites ( Living History ) that have some excellent pic's, but I figured you really wanted authentic W.W.II photo's. These site's I found about a year ago have some of the best authentic photo's that I've managed to ever find on the internet to this day. HOPE YOU ENJOY THEM
