Far superior to anything that I have seen....I'm envious...unbelievable

[@cyrilhansell7365]

A very interesting and well thought out diorama the brick work was fantastic añd the ivy growing up was anic touch

[@omeloeks]

You sir, are the Rembrandt of modeling. My respect!

[@edhorst7212]

Excellent diorama.. info on “ how to” , paint used, weathering, etc certainly helped towards future builds /dioramas.. thanks again.

[@lawrencereid9375]

OUTSTANDING! The details on the barn are extraordinarily fine..

[@tpbbuzzelli1327]

Nicely designed .

[@jurgen6768]

I've recently finished a Jagdpanzer IV Tamiya with no. 322 thereon. Albeit will be placed in a street diorama. Will be applying the same techniques in scratch build' my own buildings as yourself. Thanks for the these vids very educational and thoroughly enjoyable.

[@richharris1562]

Honestly, as much as I admire your work in general, what I find most impressive are the things like the individual bricks in this build, or the details in the wood and plaster work in the Normandy house front sculpt -- done with a dental tool, no less. I may be a modeler, but some of us are artists.

[@CWModelling]

Wow, thank you 👍

[@Broadswordii]

That is stunning work, cannot believe you made your own bricks and built the barn from scratch 😍😍👍🏻👍🏻

[@CWModelling]

Thanks 😊

[@enciksihat]

Love from Malaysia.... This is truly artist... Next diorama, world war corpses... Hehe.. Love to see corpses in dioramas

[@pineapplesand556ers]

Best project you’ve done yet. Wonderful.

[@SteveJonesScaleModellingSite]

Outstanding. Lovely composition with the AFV, figures and building. Great to see

[@stephenbridges2791]

Nice job! I like the individual bricks. Nothing says real like using the real thing. I'm going to have to get one of those molds. Very cool, indeed!

[@jamesgrotto2219]

Nice job, the two front road wheels were replaced with steel road wheels. To help keeping from collapsing while making a left or right turn. So much weight on the front. Nice kit, great job

[@Barbarossamodels]

Gotta love that barn Ian, looks excellent!! Obviously a lot of work to add all those bricks but it’s paid off hugely. Great vegetation too, again adding the leaves individually to the seafoam is worth the effort. Another terrific diorama....well done bud 👏👏🙂

[@CWModelling]

Thanks Simon 👍

[@colinstewart1535]

Hi CW, like the way it all comes together as to a killer team in action.

[@jantimmer5558]

Looks fantastic! Might as well use somethings i learned here later on!

[@kuri369kuri]

Very cool man. Very cool

[@carolineb29]

Sujet peu traité que le Lang et ici mis en scène avec goût. Inspirant...bravos

[@I_Don_t_want_a_handle]

Superb. If I could do a quarter as well I could die happy!

[@garylawless3608]

This diorama is brilliant CWM! Your eye for detail is amazing, and the placement of all the elements brings it all together beautifully. I really enjoyed watching this one come together, and looking forward to your next project. Cheers from Australia!

[@CWModelling]

Thank you, Cheers 👍

[@HalidonDioramas]

Excellent, excellent, love the building, I'm stealing some of that technique for sure 👍👍👍

[@CWModelling]

Fill your boots 👍

[@alexchan898]

Sehr gut，wunderbar！

[@michaelchristensen6884]

Looks excellent. Only thing i would have changed is to make the diorama longer so the end of the barrel doesn't stick out past the barn.

[@larryscarafile7309]

Look great. Really enjoyed the video . The barn came out great

[@CWModelling]

Awesome, thank you 👍

[@fipefipe6870]

Magnifico trabajo 👍👍👍👍🇪🇦

[@GregReilly135ScaleModels]

Absolutely stunning work sir love all the extra detail you have added

[@CWModelling]

Thank you, Cheers 👍

[@joramamodellbau3987]

Perfect work, Ian. Shown in a great video about about the development of the individual components. Masterful execution as well as the arrangement of the entire scene. Really something with a role model function. Nice to see. Greetings, Joachim

[@CWModelling]

Thanks Joachim 👍

[@annedejong1040]

Just were they (Pzjgr. 4) there at Normandy already? Love the detail in combination with the warm atmosphere in your topic. Regards

[@CoensScaleModelling]

Nice to see this one again. You'll always have a future as a brick layer too haha

[@CWModelling]

That's the plan!

[@kuri369kuri]

Very nice!!!

Thanks for the visit

Ace mate 😁👌

[@HamilkarBarkasScaleModelling]

Makes me want to build my Jagdpanzer IV :)

[@CWModelling]

I think you should 👍

[@barrythornton9947]

Lovin` your work sir

[@CWModelling]

Much appreciated👍

[@rogermullins7877]

Another excellent build Ian. Very impressive. Near the beginning of the vid you wrote that ScaleModel Alberta showed the technique for pinning down rubber band type tracks. Could you please let me know which of his video's shows this. Thanks.

[@CWModelling]

Thanks......sorry I have no idea which video I was referring to as this video is pretty old now and I have no recollection I'm afraid

[@rogermullins7877]

@@CWModelling Thanks for the prompt reply. Perhaps in a future build video of a kit with rubber band type tracks, you could demonstrate the process.

[@CWModelling]

I'll bear that in mind......in principle tho, all you do is drill holes in the hull between the return rollers at the height you want the sag to be, then superglue stiff wire (paper clips are ideal) in to the holes and loop the tracks over the return roller and under the wire......just make sure the wire sits between links and is trimmed back so its not visible👍

[@neilmackay7475]

Top dog as usual Ian take care my dear friend 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✌️🐑😁😂

So awesome! Love it🤘👍👍

[@nickbutler7935]

Very nice.

[@lanceschaerer6875]

Great job bud. I always puck up a trick or two on each of your videos. Keep them coming. One thing id like to point out is that you are mixing SS and Wehrmacht uniforms with your figures... not sure if this was intentional or not

[@CWModelling]

Thanks 👍......I was naive about these things when I made that diorama but its also something thats never really concerned me too much either

[@razor69006]

is that a choice to have a mix between wh and ss soldiers ? nice build !

[@CWModelling]

Only a choice in that they were figures I had👍

[@Modellfreak]

Sehr schön detailliert, aber das Periskop nützt auf der linken Seite des Panzerjägers nicht. Der sieht nur die Hausecke. Trotzdem sehr gut gemacht.

[@CWModelling]

Thanks......maybe the guy with the binoculars is spotting for them 😉

[@garoscale2587]

Love it !

[@frederiksen8893]

What is that blue thing at the back left fender ??

[@CWModelling]

its a convoy light 👍

[@frederiksen8893]

@@CWModelling I see...thanks, Great Diorama !

[@johnconran9327]

Fantastic job, JagdPanzer IV is one of my all time favourites, just a quick question though, you built the model and then the diorama afterwards, did this then limit you to having a fairly flat diorama as you could not add suspension travel into the model? Very impressive work though, loved the individual brickwork.

[@CWModelling]

Thanks........the diorama idea usually comes first and in this case it was flat so no need to mess with the suspension.....but if a diorama calls for something like that then I'd adapt the kit 👍

[@johnconran9327]

@@CWModelling Thank you, I have now watched many more of your videos and I think your dioramas are unparalleled. I have just started watching a channel where they are Laser cutting buildings, windows, doors, even slats in blinds. Almost seems like cheating! I still prefer the effort, and to be honest engineering know how that you put into yours, to give that genuine look and feel. Thanks again, love the content.

[@CWModelling]

@@johnconran9327 Thanks for watching.....to be fair to Thomas at Laser Creation-World..... if thats who you mean....he does design all his buildings himself and as a CAD draughtsman myself, I know how much work is involved in drawing his designs and templates in 3D on the computer before they're cut by the laser machine....its a lot of hours......Thanks again 👍

[@johnconran9327]

@@CWModelling Yes that is exactly who i meant, and I have now watched a couple of his videos and again I am well impressed, I use CAD myself and agree that is a lot of planning and work, I don't think the first video i watched fully showed the depth and skill involved, which I have now seen subsequently. His dioramas are also excellent. Cheers.

[@dennishowlett7390]

Brilliant. How long did it take you to build?

[@CWModelling]

Thanks.....I guess 2 weeks of evenings roughly 👍
