These videos are the reason I got back into model building

[@mikep3180]

sheds a tear for marvelous German engineering

[@ipdjbt]

I haven't built a model in decades but still enjoy watching your vids. I'm fighting the urge to get back into the hobby, lol.

[@joejones6963]

Maxey why fight it?

[@AugustusCaesar88]

Why fight it? Since watching Andy's videos and getting back into modelling properly my life has been so much more enjoyable and joyous :)

[@genericdenizen1]

It’s not an expensive hobby, compared to just about anything other than reading. Jump back in.

[@traffic800]

Thank you for the tip about keeping one side of the tape on the pe until after cutting. I've built a lot of trumpeter and hobby boss kits but I've never done that. I always get that slight curling of the pe.

[@craigwells6227]

You outdone yourself on this project. Very fine camouflage.

[@marchellochiovelli7259]

Always cool. This helps me with decisions on future buying of kits because of your fine reviews and builds. Thanks!!

[@jjhistoricalmodels]

I love the Trumpeter brand. The paint finish of the model is very good.

[@dgvinn]

Nice build again . Learnt so much from your uploads ,Thanks

[@PowerstrokeDiesel73]

Great paint job. Love the simple camoflauge.

[@mountaineermodeler8188]

Another great video Andy. Happy to hear things are happening for you and the channel. Looking forward to it.

[@TKs3DPrints]

nice build looking forward to the competitions :)

[@panzertracks]

Excellent built, the weathering is great with the blending.

[@MrBerendlol]

Great work Andy! Gave me tons of inspiration for weathering my 1/72 Panther. Keep em coming!

[@gaustadtpanzer3606]

Well done Andy!!! This is truly an amazing kit that I MUST get for my collection!

[@willabe566]

Ken O'Brien same, saw it for 37 pounds on eBay! Extremely cheap for this size!

[@Darckstar52]

Nice build! Contest sound great.

[@Metacore91]

Hey Andy. I would love to see you take a regular tank kit, and assamble and paint if as if it was taken out. Burn marks, bullet impacts, maybe even rust? Anyways, love your work.

[@henrik1122]

What a great build! Thanks for producing this great content it's always very interisting to watch the videos because they are very informativ and you are a very very great modell builder. I can't wait for the next video. :)

[@devynhardick4630]

6:05 looks like a cartoon tank! Lol, great work Andy! Keep it up! Hello from Canada!

[@ronmeise4520]

Thank you for making another great video!!!

[@sophievansnick8207]

Awesome looking beast , Andy , loved a lot the paint job .Learned a lot of your weathering style. Keep up the great work !!! Grtz from Belgium.

[@willl655]

Amazing build.

[@lesthiele7645]

Hi Andy You have completed another great build, this one is not one I would like myself, but then In watch just to get some ideas. Keep up the excellent work. Les

[@CarDreamsinStyrene]

Thanks for sharing it was very informative...

[@outdoors_review]

Tanks are just amazing

[@aihualu6176]

I wish I was as dedicated and as skilled as you Andy.

[@MrRon6977]

That things a monster. Thanks Andy.

[@slimjimbob9808]

As usual Andy great job on this kit, I learn a lot everytime I watch a new video. Currently I'm building a Trumpeter LAV 25, Australian edition. Keep up the good work sir

[@jeremyhughes5323]

Hi Andy great kit. I enjoy watching your videos and are great help to me with my armour here in New Zealand. Look forward to the next video

[@7RQ89]

Andy. Thanks for sharing another excellent military vehicle build. I am really looking forward to see you do some figurines to go with the armor.

[@someguy6132]

Love your vids keep making them Also you have the best modelling channel on youtube

[@jordangoodyear294]

Amazing very talented and skilled model maker ive subscribed from the united kingdom

[@TheDom277]

I got the similar model to this not long ago, the Geschutzwagen Tiger fur 17cm, also from trumpeter, i have to say it will be one hell of a build! The gun platform is open top and well detailed inside and also comes with a well detailed engine. Its a monster like this kit! Great video as always!

[@ethantrinkley3292]

Dom277 I'm soon getting that kit, any warnings?

[@1203robocop]

Greetings from Poland (my name is Paul). I bought this model today and I've already started working on it. You know, the tank seems bigger, but it really is small. cool painting and a very powerful guide on how to finish the model. I watch your movies on a regular basis. Thank you very much for your help and best regards.

[@philipjones7713]

That is an amazing kit looks easy to build to

[@geraldshultz4271]

Enjoyed your work. Thank you for effort.

[@nancirobinson9948]

thnx for this vid... been waitin for the grille 30

[@fleetwarrior75]

Great work Andy!

[@chrishorne5855]

Just watch this video , absolutely love the look of it , got on to eBay and tracked a kit down and ordered one

[@KentsPaintShack]

That's one crazy big kit nice job

[@bbrockRailFan]

Cool looking model Andy!

[@larrybrown1824]

Thanks Andy!

[@kbellanger4140]

depend on how serious about accuracy and how good you want your model to look. I believe all armored fighting Vehicles where painted by spray. you can go out and buy inexpensive camouflage spray paints in a can.

[@TheStrikeBlitz]

i learn more history from your videos than i did in my history classes! keep up the good work!

[@willabe566]

James Andy doesn't say anything about history.

[@invincible6197]

Willabe just like many history teachers, then.

[@cosmincmc2060]

Great video Andy, loved it

[@fisharmy5785]

Interesting vehicle nice build.

[@JensAndree]

I'm a big fan of red oxide primer on my very late, and often "what if", builds and I just like the warm tone it makes - and how it takes subtle weathering so well - like you just did! Well done by the way. A few sponsored competitions are also great - for all of us! You get freebies to hand out, they get free advertising and we get the remote chance of winning something ;) Question: Have you tried the Mr.Paint paints? They're supposedly much like Tamiya acrylics in how they behave but with almost 350 different colours... (including the 50 they're just about to release) I love Tamiya mixed with iso but they're a bit limited with regards to their colours and mixing your own is never 100%, especially if you run out of mixed paint on a model and have to make more... I know, plan ahead but we've all been there...

[@andrewfengler7229]

Looks great mate

[@PilotTed]

Never seen this model before, it's pretty cool, and derpy.

[@garyturton6967]

Another master piece ,well done Andy

[@eugenerudman]

thanks for another great video, Andy! would you mind sharing your airbrush PSI settings , and if you change it between, say, the close-up work and the long-distance buff coat?

[@Baracuus]

Incredible!!!

[@kimandersendk]

Great looking tank

[@uriensthe_gray1220]

Well choosen music for the paint jobs. Blue Danube. Seems fitting.

[@jaihadgeppo150]

Hi i love your paints! However, i think you should do some brush painting tutorials because not everyone has a fancy airbrush :)

[@willabe566]

Stoigen Froigen there's a really good you tuber called quick kits who shows you how to paint with a brush.

[@kbellanger4140]

then get a fancy airbrush ....one should never paint a model with a paint brush

[@buildit135wright3]

some people do not have the MONEY

[@lazaglider]

kevin bellanger Oh look, it's one of those modellers who is killing the hobby. Someone who has such a high opinion of himself that he states his opinions as facts. Model for yourself, not for a pretentious knob on the internet.

[@invincible6197]

kevin bellanger people like you don't deserve to be part of this hobby.

[@alecbowman4127]

That would blend in out here in the desert. We have red oxide dirt and yellow sands.

[@jbll36]

Another excellent build Andy. Ever thought about opening a branch shop in southern Maine? Sure could use a great model shop here!

[@daviemaclean61]

Another great build - verging on being a 1946 what if tank. If you want to see tanks that never were or only got as far as the prototype stage look at the World of Tanks game - it's full of them! ;-)

[@willabe566]

World of Tanks is stupid most of their paper panzers weren't even planned.

[@GodzillaB210]

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think this is based on the Lowe chassis vs the "stretched Tiger 2". Beautiful build as always!

[@homiespaghetti1522]

Idk why, but I love these paper/fictional tanks.

[@tabletophobbies.terraintec2697]

That door at the bottom could be either the anchor or the door for the empty shells to pop out

[@fabamatic]

could you do a video were you just paint with some classical music, it's really soothing

[@perrylamb6286]

It would be interesting to see a little bit of concrete, or brick, debris scattered across the hull from where chunks came off from a nearby building. But, love the job. Well done!

[@FreakinfreakInfreaki]

How many models do you build a month?

[@63RatRodders]

Good as usual.

[@davaopagkaonguide9029]

another awesome build,thank you. by the Way can you do the IS7 / IS3 tank please. thanks and more power

[@user-ow3qw7xk4f]

looks great)+

[@giovannidispirito9056]

Does anyone know what the correct metal tracks for this kit would be?

[@nicklewis6052]

For those of you who didn’t stop and think about it the grille 17 is essentially the jagpanzer E-100 and this thing could also be called the sturmpanzer E-100

[@carminemaio429]

Hi Andy just want to say love each & every video you post I have recently come back to modelling & I've learned a lot from your builds. But I have had problems with your wish technique where you use an enamel thinner first I tried it but I got a horrible patches that I could not remove can you tell exactly what you use for this please yours Carm

[@rpgiv3175]

Woah dang thats good!!!

[@JasperJokerII]

Great job as usual , Andy. You have a passion and enthusiasm for models that is quite refreshing. Keeping it simple and fun. I've been building models for 45+ years and I think you do excellant work. By the way, I just received one of your t shirts and now I'm in with the in crowd.

[@LoderMike]

is that thing on the bottom lowered for recoil management?

[@owenziegler307]

Hey! I recently got back into scale modelling, and these videos are awesome. By any chance, do you think you could do a build of the Tamiya M41 Walker Bulldog? It's a really inexpensive kit that's loads of fun to build.

[@eliezercorderofeliciano2225]

I want to have those modeling tools, I don't even have cement!

[@siralda8309]

What airbrush needle and compressor did you use

[@delboytrotter8806]

Let's get started............

[@cuttlefisch]

Cant beat the Blue Danube waltz!!

[@jacob_lindstrom]

Where do you buy all your models?

[@swagnolan5269]

What is the name of the little spray painter he uses for the camouflage

[@agp11001]

You mean the airbrush?

[@87mitchb]

Hi Andy, whats your take on airbrushes? ie cheap ones vs expensive and what brands. Thanks

[@johnthevoice6270]

Hey Andy! I just love your models. Very realistic! I have a question: Do you by any chance have any Alpine figures? Thanks!

[@alpbartuakdemir6489]

Looks cute

[@thugchucken1898]

Can u try and do a figure tutorial would like to see that

[@raikbarczynski6582]

that thign at the rear end could not only be for leveling the gun but also as a firing anchor like the spades on the m40 back. to prevent the vehicle to roll back way more then needed

[@fishnchips5826]

Andy i have a question but its out of the topic, how do you cut the long thin part from the sprue and clean it? Im always struggling with long thin part. Thanks in advance 😊

[@willabe566]

Crusader Matilda you cut it.

[@carstendengler3283]

could you try one of trumpeter's other paper panzers like the e-50 or e-75?

[@willl655]

Can you do a T-72 in modern use?

[@traffic800]

He could build the great meng t-72b3 kit, or the brand new meng t-72b1 (i haven't seen it available on US sites yet). There are also some nice Trumpeter kits. Probably not quite as good as the meng kits but trumpeter has way more options.

+Wrestling Shoot Channel hi. you like wrestling?

[@svenva]

great video! i absolutely love your way of building. are you planning on making some real tutorial videos of some of your techniques? would be awesome! ps. is there a way to share my projects to you? i'm only fourteen and I want to hear what I did right and wrong.

[@ondrejruzicka4214]

Hellou Andy I watch your videos for a long time, your models are amazing thanks for inspiration. I hope you will make some german WW2 Sdkfz 251/1 from Tamiya pleas.

[@mladtheimpaler]

Dragon has many better kits of the Sd.Kfz. 251/1

[@garymoore2674]

Andy do the new AFV Club M113ACAV,beats Academys hands down.Pricey,but nice

[@PilotTed]

Aw sweet, if it was actually built, even if it was just a prototype, that means gaijube might add it to warthunder. Hopefully.

[@PilotTed]

It would not be very practical as its gun can't traverse left or right I believe. So It won't really have a place in the game, but it would be a fun event vehicle.

[@venetostato4822]

Hi Andy. Why don't you build Tamiya Stuka zu fuss 1:35...

[@willabe566]

Matteo Cadamuro because he can build what he wants.

[@venetostato4822]

Willabe enjou

[@placidrenegade]

Is there any videos on KZbin that build battle damage to their models? Thanks in advance.

[@bradenrobson7513]

placid renegade A channel called QDC748a has

[@placidrenegade]

Braden Robson Cheers ;)

[@patriknichtstar1778]

hey andi, can you tell me which color did you use for the gun ?

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

german grey

[@patriknichtstar1778]

Andy's Hobby Headquarters Okay thank you ;)

[@sashiaivanow367]

Can you bulid Panzerjägerwagen 1/35 from trumpeter?

[@spiderspace8249]

Hi. If you like a change on your builds, you could try Takom's G6 Rhino 1/35 scale No. 2052. It is something different.

[@sequencemain5873]

it's a pity that link tracks are not included

[@Teckomatorp]

Hey Andy! Nice vid! I need some help with my airbrush. Im pretty new with it, but I bought it for like 130$. I really dont know how to messuer the paint with water ( I use vallejo Model Air colors) and I have my compressor in about 20 PSI. When I "paint" with it, it usually splattern, I add water, and it just gets messy...I would really like some help with this. Have a nice day, sir.

[@TheNordus]

Why not the Amusing Hobby version of this kit?

[@willabe566]

TheNordus because this kit is new.

[@kbellanger4140]

seriously ?

[@kbellanger4140]

5 different companies make the tiger 1 should he do all 5 tigers ?

[@TheNordus]

Considering the Tiger 1 is the best tank of all time, he should do more than 5. At least 2 of each manufacturer's.

[@TheNordus]

I was just asking because the AH version also came out recently-ish, I think. Like is this one better than the other=

[@biidule4589]

Does enamel paints works With airbrush ?

[@tomihaili8756]

Yes. They had enamels for Airbrushing before acrylics game along. I use enamel only for base coating. Don´t want to sniff the fumes LOL. If it´s unsuitable for Airbrush the might be text like "do not spray".

[@biidule4589]

Tomi Haili thank you 😀
