… that BlackSheep builds more armor kits? It’s starting to feel like it since I’ve been having a blast building that M3 Stuart “Honey” kit.

Re: Could this be the year2025….
I'm thinking along the same lines, Tom. 
Armor kits are just more fun and less stressful to me now, too. 
My grandson, Sully, 10 years old, and I started that old Monogram M48A2 tank yesterday morning. We got most of the hull and turret assembled and he sprayed all the running gear. We're painting it in ModelMaster Tan for an Israeli tank. It seemed like we made a lot of progress in a short amount of time. 
You will enjoy that old Tamiya Panther. It was the second of my three tank models, done nearly 20 years ago now:

Nice Panther, Gary. Still hate those damn thick decals by Tamiya.

I have the WWI Mk.IV in the someday pile. Way, way too many parts that are completely covered up and questionable as to value to the kit. Interesting kit thoough.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I'm really starting to worry about you Blacksheep.

If you’ve got a Sherman and T-34, you need a Panzer IV….
