2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY

Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.

So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.

We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.

Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

I have followed the drawing above and can confirm gear case now fits perfectly and pulleys clear the hatches and hull,(just about).
I had fitted the bearings in the motor mount with loctite 638. I applied some heat and was able to remove the bearings without any issue.

I have now started the painting process. I am happy with level of detail on the lower hull but need to do more on the wheels but for now on with the hull. Here are some photos of progress. I will have a video soon.
