My entry for the "Project X" campaign will be the Attack Hobby PzKpfw.38(t) Schwimmkorper amphibious tank in 1/72 scale.
The base kit is the Attack Hobby PzBefWg.38(t) Ausf. B (72808) command tank. The Attack Hobby Schwimmkorper resin amphibious conversion (AR05) is the basis for this experimental prototype amphibious tank. I believe the tank was developed in anticipation of Operation Sea Lion, Germany's proposed invasion of England, but I really do not know.
The Schwimmkorper conversion consists of 11 resin parts and one small piece of wire. The 38(t) kit is a limited run kit and the detail is not really sharp. The tapered kit barrel has a bad mold slip to it and not very good.
Additional detailing is provided by ExtraTech photoetch set for the Attack Hobby PzKpfw.38(t) Ausf. G (EXV 72012) and the Armo aluminum barrel for the Pz.Kpfw.38(t) "Praga" (AR72718).
