This awesome. I just got back into modeling. I built hundreds as a kid, but never had the patience or money to do them right. I just built two planes and am starting to develop a few basic skills. Being a huge Sherman tank buff, bought this kit. I found your video and really feel more confident that I can at least make a pathetic version of this (but far better than it would have been had I not seen the video)! Thank you!

[@ModellingWeekly]

No worries, and thanks for your compliments! I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time building your kit, enjoy! 😄

[@jeffturnbull9661]

Beautiful work on this

[@John_Sharrock]

These are beautiful kits.I've just built the 1/48 Hetzer,and it was a dream to build...No weights,the entire lower hull is metal. Top job on this Sherman 👍

[@ModellingWeekly]

They are incredibly well manufactured, for sure. Glad you liked the build!

[@ClayBoom]

I paint warhammer 40k and I'm going to start painting their tanks, this channel will help me a lot.

[@ModellingWeekly]

I'm glad you find it helpful mate, means a lot :) Have fun with your future projects!

[@danwilliams1686]

I dont build very many Armour kits but I will say this is one of the best Armour weathing videos I've ever watched.

[@ModellingWeekly]

That is a huge compliment, thanks so much! I really appreciate it :))

[@danwilliams1686]

@@ModellingWeekly I have this kit and it's larger 1/35 cousin. Once I have the funds I will purchase the 1/16 m-4 from andys hobby . Your weathering techniques can be applied to each one. That's a big help. Thanks.

[@ModellingWeekly]

@@danwilliams1686 sounds excellent my friend! I'm so glad the weathering tips could help out :)

[@robertnorth7609]

Paint "Fury" on the left side of the main tube. That is a pretty wild movie 🎥

[@ModellingWeekly]

Love the film! One day .. 😉

[@frankenstein.7029]

Fantastic job, loved the tips and entire video. The music was jammin.

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thank you so much!

[@crestmarine6035]

I finished one of these last year, perhaps one of the most enjoyable builds ever. This fitment is phenomenal

[@ModellingWeekly]

The kit is indeed incredible, I'd agree!

[@MrKersey]

Great looking Sherman, thanks for the upload.

[@ModellingWeekly]

Glad you like it! Thanks for watching 😃

[@ZECANAL]

Much better!!!

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thanks haha

[@michaelnaven213]

Came together very well with your painting and weathering choices.

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thanks! Glad you like the result 😊

[@Mikeyb37184]

beautiful build my brother

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thanks very much mate! :D

[@Jake-jw3sk]

Awesome build. Really inspirational to build my Tamiya 1/48 M10. Nice job as always MW

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thanks! Glad it boosted the inspiration factor for the M10 :)

[@crazylocha2515]

Looking forward to seeing your build. Pretty sure I have this same kit in stash, along with bunch of Value Gear stowage to put on it. 👍 Best part will be driving back during work for the premier, will be getting paid to enjoy it, win-win

[@ModellingWeekly]

Glad you're excited! It's a great kit, I'd definitely break it out if you have one 👍 viewing plans sound good! :D

[@SprueFascinationChannel]

Lovely Sherman 👍

[@ModellingWeekly]

Thanks mate! 😃

[@kgcustomscalemodles4762]

I have those kit 80 % done your build will encourage me to finish mine

[@ModellingWeekly]

Very glad! Thanks very much for your kind words!

[@ModeliteDiorama]

Nice work and video! And I always think that you have a really nice voice for narrations!

[@ModellingWeekly]

Aw I'm glad youre a fan of the narrations! Really appreciate it mate. And thanks for your kind words :)

[@robbo1068]

Another enjoyable build from you, MW and a darn good job to boot. Terrific paint scheme contrasting colours, excellent weathering (not too little or too much) resulting in a great reveal. You have come a very long way since starting and a channel to definitely watch.

[@ModellingWeekly]

I'm very glad you're enjoying, and thanks so much for your kind words and overall support :) it genuinely means the world 😊 I look forward to sharing future builds with you!

[@robbo1068]

@@ModellingWeekly and, I look forward to seeing that notification bell too!

[@jonhking5570]

Just found your channel the Sherman looks really good I have the king tiger to do nice build well done 👍

[@ModellingWeekly]

I'm glad you're a fan of the build :)) many thanks! Good luck with your tiger 👍👍

[@007NateNasty]

Do you have a video with multiple of these on display on the shelf together?

[@ModellingWeekly]

I do have a cabinet where I display all my models, yeah - unfortunately this isn't in a video! I'll work on this for the future 👍

[@007NateNasty]

Thanks. I'm looking to get into it and I need to see that final goal and how good does it look. @@ModellingWeekly

[@felipfelop8220]

It's not a glayseus plate,its said glasius plate,its spelt glacius plate,the metal moulds,ie texture is awful, don't forget those tracks need replacing with metal ones,its such a shame,as this kit is overpriced,you would need to spend another 40 or 50 to make it half decent

[@ModellingWeekly]

I'm not sure what language you're referring to, but it's spelt Glacis, you can check the Oxford English dictionary if you'd like to confirm that. As for the mould texture, what would you do to improve it? Constructive criticism is preferable :) Also, calling a kit "half-decent" is far into the realm of subjectivity. I don't think it's bad at all, especially for a quick mojo build that only stayed on my workbench for 5 days

[@felipfelop8220]

Yes its spelt glacis plate,my typo,your take on it with the texture is great,as the kit is poor in regard to its price, love your channel bud,look forward to more of your blogs,always clear and well presented

[@ModellingWeekly]

@@felipfelop8220 ah, misunderstood what you meant :) my bad. Thanks very much mate
