During World War II, the German army developed excellent tanks, but from the early stages of the war, they also worked on developing tank destroyers dedicated to anti-tank combat. Furthermore, as the war progressed, to compensate for numerical inferiority, they mounted guns on outdated tanks or captured vehicles, and in the latter stages of the war, they produced a large number of dedicated tank destroyer vehicles (self-propelled guns) with specialized chassis.

In this tank modeling guide, we will feature the representative light tank destroyers of the German army, the "Marder I, II, III," and the formidable heavy tank destroyer that emerged towards the end of the war, the "Jagdtiger." We will provide detailed explanations of the unique painting techniques and weathering methods specific to the open-topped tank destroyer Marder and the enclosed combat compartment of the Jagdtiger.
