How is the Tamiya Pz IVJ? Is the side armor as thick as it was on the earlier kits? That would be my pick, as long as the armor wasn't too thick or if I could get Aber PE armor.

Something different from German armor! And because I want to learn more about resin before I delve into any.

I vote for the Pz IV with PE.

Just because that's the only project there that interests me!!

If you must do something else, the Char II is ok!

Work on the Kingfisher has begun even though I'm waiting on an engine and the corrected floats. I've just finished a 1/25 Jagdtiger so the way is open to begin the PzKpfw IV. I have eduard side skirts and pe details as well as DML individual link tracks on the way.

Actually Rob I'd envisioned doing an aircraft and an armor build from the beginning. Jeez you don't expect me to just work on 1 project at a time do you?

PS: Avatars are available in the My Account :: Profile area. I made the "?" guy but he kinda gets a little creepy when there are too many around.
