I asked this question on the aircraft so I just have to ask here to.What is your fovorite armor piece to do?Me it would have to be T-34 with its slaint armor,I don’t know why but it just looks life a lion of the battlefield.Digger
I love to model everything produced between about 1937 and 1945, so it’s extremely difficult for me to pin down a single “favorite” subject. I suppose if pressed, I’d have to go with the Tiger I.
Enjoy your modeling…
[#ditto] But mostly whatever is on sale is what I build
My all time favorite tank have always been the Tiget II and the Jagdpanter. I am currently working on my first Jagdpanter, and have a Tiger II on the Pile!
[#ditto]the Tiger1 closely followed by the Panther…J.S
Well it used to be the Tiger II, but after the Panther Group Build, I’d say the Panther G. I really like the sleek shape. I still have an Early G to do yet.
I like to build tiger 1’s. It’s not so much the construction of the model, but I just like the look and power of the tank. Too bad it was on the wrong side in WW2, but I find it amazing how it put fear in every enemy soldier that had to encounter it, but again it would have been better to be an allied tank, but still. Thats just me…
I have a soft spot for the SP artillery/assault gun/halftrack types…not really sure why, maybe it’s the variety they offer vs. the Tigers, Panthers, et al.
I’ really like the Tiger I Early but there are some pieces of armour which kick off the Tiger from 1st place : HALFTRACKS - and because the Germans made the most different versions of this i like German halftracks - and but why not love the biggest one the FAMO. After I’ll have finished my Tiger I’ll going to start my 1/16th FAMO.
I like the Sherman…simple, rugged and reliable.
I know it’s extremely Top 40, but the ol’ Tiger II (“Porsche Turret”) has always been my overall fave.
Well my favorite variant to model is the Panzer III. As for my favorite kit, it has to be Tamiya’s Tiger I Mid Production.
Cheers

I like all German armor I think the Germans built some of the best looking AFV of all time ( the USSR did some nice looking AFVs as well)
The Sherman offers a lot of interesting variations, with different hulls, guns, and suspensions so there’s a lot of variety with building several. I’m doing one now with a few more in the queue.
That said, the best looking tank of all time, regardless of combat capabities has to be a Panther G. Clean, elegant hull, well proportioned turret, and an impressive gun.

I’m with Matthias. I love the German haltracks, and if I knew more about them, I would probably love the allied ones too. My favourites would be the Panzerwerfer 42 auf Maultier, the Sdkfz 7/1 Flakvierling and the Sdkfz 251/20 UHU.
If it were just Tanks, I like T-34’s Tigers etc. Just the usual suspects.
PANTHER!!! 100 percent… Sleek, Sexy and purposeful…!
[:p]There actually not tanks in the true sense of word but I have always liked the German Stug’s and Russian Su’s just that low sleek purposeful look.
Well guys Im gonna have to go with the modern look. Don’t get me wrong I won’t turn down a good Tiger I kit but the Modern High Tech look of tanks like tha Abrams and Challenger 2 are the pinnacle of modern warefare
US (Alliies) Tank Destroyers, anything with destroy in the name has to be cool! [:)]
Stug III’s, they’re cute and deadly!
