With the #FestiveTankChallenge2025 getting closer I thought i might as well give it a go.
Picked this one up on eBay, I'm going 1/48 as it might be a bit quicker to build.
I may even finish a kit before the year is out 🤞

The problem with not model making for a long time is that all my precious green stuff putty has gone hard, so no Zimmerit on the panther.
Will try and order a little lump after pay day for the King Tiger. Bugger
