best Sturmtiger kit in 1/35 scale?

Theres also the AFV club kit. I think this is generally accepted as the best kit. Heres a comparison review on PMMs.

I bought the Tamiya kit years ago, still not built it yet. Its a very good kit and seeing as you havne't built armour for so long, you might want to start with that. The best AM for that would be the Aber PE set, but it could be very daunting if you haven't used PE before.

Hi George...Look at that..!!http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/misc/sturmtiger/sturmtiger.htm...

I've ordered the AFV kit....Aftermarket suggested:Friulimodels track,and the interiors Afv kit..........Ciao Enrico.

You'll also need zimmerit, as Sturmtigers were all refurbed Tiger I's. If you don't want to do this yourself, then I recommend Cavalier or Atak resin.

Pinkboy here's the AFV Club kit i've got underway:

Fit has been fine and the flash/mold seams very light and easy to clean up.

Recommend very highly

hi Tony.

Thanks for the reply.  That's a fine looking model.  So far, people have been unanimous about the AFV Club kit, so I guess I'll go with it.  No one has even mentioned the Revell kit...is the Revell model pretty much a joke?

Like many Revell of Germany kits, unless it is a modern Bundeswehr vehicle, it is normally a rebox of Italeri or Dragon. The Revell kit is the Italeri kit.

The AFV is the better kit, but the Tamiya one is respectable.  I have been working on that one here and there for six or seven years-it's a classic Shelf Queen-but only because I have modeler's ADHD and when something shiny crosses in front of me, I lose what I'm doing.  The Cavalier set is beautiful for the Tamiya kit.   

Forget the Italeri stuff.

The Italeri looks respectable when finished. It doesn't come with mesh grills. It does have molded zimmerit that isn't great by any stretch. There is a bit of puttying.......At least it looks the part. LOL
