Hey guys, I am about to start getting into modeling with a plastic tank model. I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions and could help me pick out of this list on which would be the easiest to start on. These will have to be painted so tips with that would be appreciated as well.
I am picking from these models, price is not an issue on these. Keep in mind I don't have a tiger on here or panther because I would like to have a little experience before I tackle some of my top favorite tanks.

Edited by Oneironaut: 8/6/2013 3:49:06 AMHmm, I don't know much about model tanks and what not, Gundams yes, but not tanks. The post difficult part is the painting process. The materials can get pretty expensive, and a crappy paint job will pretty much ruin it. As for the overall difficulty of assembling it, I can't help you there 'cause like I said I only know about Gundams, but most models have a grade, tier or number that would designate its' difficulty.
