Hate to spam this comment thread but I got my kit today and I just wanted to say thank you for the hand written card. A company that takes time to do that sort of thing is always appreciated.

[@user-wf2lm3vi7o]

Adding Soviet track looks like a trophy hunter taking a memento and displaying it to all, this is what I'm capable of.

[@donfrandsen7778]

Yup thats the rail for protecting the barrel, while in traverse , antena and such

[@Octabust]

Love when you build tanks and II really want and hope to see another diorama build soon

[@jeffmack2667]

Andy,old son you have done it again, top job and video,always a pleasure to watch all your builds

[@donfrandsen7778]

Another smashing video Andy Love the white wash, subtle yet in scale and tone chanes , washes and grime and such . Well done Andy!!!! Thank you !! Keep them coming!!!!

[@genericdenizen1]

Hi Andy, great seeing you today in your store. Thanks for your help recommending more kits and supplies for me to buy.

[@DarksouIjah]

I ordered this kit last night (8 pm MST) and already got an email that it has been shipped. Thanks Andy!!!

[@savinglivesofourown]

Unbelievable execution. I really enjoy these videos. Thanks for your judicious use of decals. I don't have to wince, and I can enjoy the full beauty and expertise of this build. Well done Andy!

[@sophievansnick8207]

Nice build Andy , love the way you used all the sorts of products to wear and tear this great kit. Great video !!!

[@bazza2302]

Another very good build. Thank you for the hair spray tip. I had not seen that done. Hopefully you start shipping to Australia soon.

[@ThatAussieBloke1]

Tamiya's extra thin cement is the best invention ever

[@XZasCC]

I second this :)

[@thearsenalmisfit2414]

Great looking build Andy. I have one on order after I saw your review.

[@erikkunkle9574]

I'm not into building armor, but I love watching you build. I appriciate you and I will get down there one day.

[@redtomato6929]

Love these vids!! Keep building andy!!

[@HonestBlake]

Turned out really cool! Keep up the good work!

[@Emergency785]

One more fantastic work! Congrats! Keep'em comin'.

[@Android-rz8mb]

I am so happy that you’re offering online store

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Andy, great to see you back doing more videos. I know the new location and online store take a lot of time and energy but hope you can contribute more regularly 👊

[@TR_TenSeven]

Another terrific effort, Andy. Very well done!

[@graarchen9357]

You should do a diorama with a knocked out bt 5 and this pz iv tank on a muddy winter road

[@lefishe8303]

I think this is a good idea that would look really cool

[@jaredgreer2509]

Love the build turned out great as always, picked up 2 of these kits gunna do one like yours and one Africa core

[@ianwilliams6309]

Love your builds and the "How to hints n tips" vids. I've learned a lot. This build is stunning and I'm looking forward to get this kit. Thanks for all ya hard work mate.

[@XZasCC]

He's great isn't he, I've learned so much off of him too, nearly all I know is directly from watching Andy, he's by far my main inspiration :) good luck with your models!!

[@ianwilliams6309]

@@XZasCC I agree mate. Andy's an inspiration to me as well. He talks to all levels of modeler as a friend who wants us to enjoy our hobby. If I ever get to the US his shop is one of the first places I visit. The wife can do the tourist bit , me, well she'll know where to find me f a disappear for a day or 2. Best of British luck with your next build mate.

[@gaustadtpanzer3606]

Well done! I love it! I have seen a lot of newer modelers actually apply tracks in the wrong direction!!!

[@prijsbart1326]

Excellent video Andy. Thank you very much! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Grundag]

I'm doing a combo Build on a 1/16 RC HL\Tamiya\Taigen \Tank Modelbau Panzer IV 'F' I built the older Tamiya 1/35 kit for the 'D' just to get an idea of the desert yellow paint. Thanks for building this one, Andy! Great video!

[@reconranger1370]

As usual Andy, nice build. See you on the store later this week to P/U Godzilla! Joe :-)

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

[@Vincent-gc8zd]

[@xjr13john]

Nice job Andy, you inspire me, thanks

[@highwayman1995]

[@mickandchrispaterson6750]

Great build Andy.

[@RCUKScaleModels]

awesome work always 10 out of 10 Andy

[@jerryschneider145]

Nice, and timely, I have a similar project in the works.

[@ermericcarolissen694]

Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa Andy. Love your channel.

[@gsbufo47]

Excellent job.

[@JuanGarcia-up2gz]

outstanding keep up the good work

[@MrBMBuilder]

Nice work Andy really like the weathering on this one, doesn't look to to bad if I say so myself ;)

[@michaelnaven213]

Great work!

[@lesthiele4921]

Hi Andy, another grezt build from a grezt master of the hobby, well do e mate.

[@_pannzer_kommandr6413]

I like the white wash except for I was a tanker in Germany we hated white wash because when we came out of the field we had to wash it all off and of course put it on we had to get it all over the tank we never airbrushed it on or use the spraygun all we did was use rollers and brushes

[@mikey6020]

HI Andy, Looks like you forgot to add the co-ax machine gun on the right side of the turret... Fantastic build otherwise. Can't wait to start my G version. Looks like all Border IV's have issues with the turret doors not fitting properly. Cheers

[@johnmason6625]

Awesome looking shop Andy, you will have to open one or two or three in the uk.

[@doublenickelbob]

Great tank builds Andy. Keep them coming I'll keep watching. Will you be building the train diorama soon?

[@manostroulinos1726]

Hi Andy, great video, many thanks for posting! Congrats for the new online shop, please make available worldwide shipping as soon as possible. It would be great to include options for courier shipping. In many non-Western countries (I currently live in the Middle East), shipping through normal airmail can take ages and cause significant delays with customs etc., while reputable courier agencies always get through much faster and often more reliably, so the extra expense is more than worth it! Best regards, Manos

[@XZasCC]

Andy, I'm a very big fan of you and an old one at that :) just want to know how you get the motivation to continue model making? I'm bipolar and clinically depressed so that doesn't help haha, but I used to love doing it and now I haven't done anything for so long and it's genuinely upsetting, I enjoyed uploading the videos here and hearing people's feedback but now I just don't know, please help, you're the only person I could think of, you're my main inspiration

[@ArkansasBassMan]

Andy: Uses all sorts of paint and thinners in an airbrush in his store. Also Andy: i think hair spray stinks so ill do it outside Oh the irony.

[@vegaboys8196]

That's an award-winner!

[@Sourdo1]

Magnificent!

[@VonRammsteyn]

Nice toutch the t 34 traks...I seen some pictures of panzer 4 using those as an added armor...

[@stevenfox7407]

Another great video sir. I truly enjoy seeing your enthusiasm with your builds. A couple of things I did notice-- where did the coaxial m.g. go? Also, the left side hatch on the turret appears to be on upside down.

[@tpbbuzzelli1327]

Very nice

[@ModellingWeekly]

I absolutely love how energetic and happy Andy is, really makes the videos a pleasure to watch! :)

[@XZasCC]

Me too!! It's why he's such an inspiration, he's built countless models and yet still has the energy to not just build them but to also make it entertaining and easy to follow for us, I've learned nearly everything I know from Andy, he's the inspiration behind my whole channel haha

[@NapFloridian]

I never clue the wheels on before painting, as the rubber and detailing on the wheels is much harder if these things are on the tank.

[@davidholder-oe1oe]

Andy, you are doing a Russian winter scene on this tank. Did you happen to notice that the figure is not in winter dress. Even inside the tank dressed like your figure is dressed. He would freeze to death in a Russian winter. But your tank looks outstanding.

[@DarksouIjah]

I just bought this kit from your website. Can’t wait to give it a whirl!

[@MrFLORESBR]

This is the one of your best models, I think you also could add more streaks and chipping?

[@kimberlywertz8266]

Beautiful

[@EMTBAFV]

I think Takom have released that panzer 3 with the shurzen now! I got the panzer 4 from border and the panzer 3 B/D from Mini art last week just away to start the p3 B/D today it's a beautiful kit! A panzer 4 hull with panzer 3 turret panzer 4 cupola etc going to be an interesting build!

[@cptnmactavish4436]

Think I’m going to do this to my Panzer 38. A Stalingrad 38(t) would be cool. Then I’ll do the same thing to a Tiger H, and eventually make some sort of diorama.

[@agentsofshieldnewengland6759]

Hey Andy. Great video as always. I was wondering if you have done the Tamiya German Hanomag Half track?

[@alex12031968]

ciao Andy, I'm looking forward to buy something from your website soon and receive it here in Italy! I'll be honored and proud of it! best, Alessandro

[@robertgriffin662]

Have a question. Why don't you paint and weather the tracks on the sprue and then glue them on and touch them up after. That way you can paint the tank and not the tracks twice? I do enjoy your vids thanks.

[@colinjarvie4013]

hi Andy, love watching the vids, got a few questions regarding other company`s kits of the Panzer 111 and it`s variants also the Panzer 1v and it`s variants, is it possible to use Tamiya`s 1 piece vinyl tracks if not confident on doing the assembly type tracks, individual link tracks and the metal tracks? also a question on the Panther Ausf G Steel Wheel version you had built would putting late war production exhausts similar to Tamiya`s Ausf G Late be a cool looking model hypothetically of course?

[@josephstalin4814]

Hey Andy, would metallic enamel paint be a good substitute if I have nothing else for model tank building

[@tedpilchak7096]

Great model - Great build! Your online store is out of stock. When might u receive more? Can I special order one?

[@jean-philippewilmart5619]

Hello from Belgium, I just watched your great video. I have a quick question, or did you find the "pot holder" for your Tamiya glues? I find it really reassuring. In advance, a big thank you for your answer. Sincerely. JPh

[@robertbarocas8889]

How long has the black under coat been used? i built kits in.the 1970s I never used a under coat except when painting winter snow camouflage

[@ThatAussieBloke1]

hey Andy have you tried using a graphite pencil to add metallic scratches? it works really well, Hello from Down Under

[@csabapali]

Hi. Quick question - fairly newbie question : I am bulding a different kit and it specifically shows not to glue the track links together as they should snap. However, I have no more patience to retrieve the links when I try to pop them together and they fly across the whole room (giving the cat a great opportunity to go for a hunt). Should I just glue them together and let it go? Thanks!

[@EMTBAFV]

Have you got a video on glueing these tracks together to make them workable?

[@billharpur9529]

Link and LENGTH tracks Andy!

[@Trixstien]

The level of detail you put into these tanks is insane, love it. :)

[@hamm6035]

Beautiful job. The commander looks a tad clean for eastern front. Really waiting for the Africa campaign look. Sorry but my interest is there?

[@cawimmer430]

Love the Panzer IV.

[@Stonedead112]

I might be wrong, but it seems the left side turret hatches are glued on upside down.

[@TheImperator76]

Hello what are you using as a sand paper or a lime ? can we find it on your online shop ? I just found out about your channel and i can t stop watching.

[@eddiehannah5489]

Hi from the UK Andy! Big fan of your shows quick question I'm almost ready to paint my king tiger Heng long after applying zimmerit and want the winter camo but what basecoat should I use? Did any king Tigers get painted grey? Or would three colour camo be a better base?? Thanks Andy

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Three tone no grey

[@glennvogt1194]

Maybe for your next project do Takom's Project 279 tank.

[@patrickpennings]

Nice! But no coaxial machine gun in the mantlet?

[@doublenickelbob]

Any chance for a vid on comprehensive aftermarket parts for tanks. Barrels photo etch by brands, makers ect.

[@XZasCC]

I second this!! That'd be great to hear Andys opinions on them

[@czarneckims]

Andy, are the turret doors reversed on the port/left side of the turret? I believe the wider door goes toward the front of the vehicle. Could that have caused some of the fit problems that you experienced? (The weathering looks awesome, BTW!!!)

[@Hubbahubba480]

I would like to know what that thing under the barrel also !!!

[@od1452]

So.. who makes the best early Panzer IV?

[@tomcat2395]

Good job but i am fairly sure you glued the left turret doors the wrong way round

[@henrikandresen7770]

I bought a german book about a pazer4 and Tiger crew. They went to Russia and used toothpaste for the white stuff..

[@aerospacetom1]

Any estimate when this kit will be back in stock?

[@darronhedges5873]

Same method of constructing suspension bogeys as dragon's Mk IV 'superkits' with seperate wheel's and tyres.PITA.
