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.

Zimmerit tool

Post by Adam Osga »

Good morning everyone (at least it is here), I was reading the updates and going through Brian’s build I started to consider the idea of applying a zimmerit look onto my tank when I get to that point. I found this thread talking about it and the tools used:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1247&start=195

I also did a search and noted that the tools used were from Mike Stannard who sadly passed away some time ago. What other tools are out there that are similar?

Thanks
Adam

For the Tiger people usually use No.2 for the hull. For the turret I think the one with less teeth is used.
