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.

Hi All
I got Brass mesh like that from Squires in Bognor Reges here in the UK when I was doing my panther and stug grills.

Many years ago, might be worth a look.

Regards

Derek

Looking really good Robert.
Repetitive work is boring/tedious so force yourself to have breaks.

Received mail from Liam M Australia.
Bought some track links to be able to hang on the outside of my Tiger, just for show.

Have a nice day

After a period of laziness I have to say thanks to my frind Björn Johansson and his Stug III 57.
For his optimism in the hobby, and I became infected of it. 😆
So I started to do some details on my Tiger.

Did some paint job. Some weld lines and some surface finish in some places.

Have a nice day.

Thank you for these kind words Oliver, I don't think I deserve them.
But thanks anyway, I appreciate your compliments.

Did some markings on my Tiger.
Couldn't find any good matching letters, to the canon mantle.
So I made some of my own with a resin printer.

Have a nice day.
