I just retired and thought I'd take up building models for fun. I did not realize how much it's changed in 50 years; very complex and involved. Thanks for this tutorial 👍

[@mrtrek64]

Ha...I was thinking the very same thing. How this hobby has evolved since the days when my parents bought my first glow in the dark Frankenstein model. Remember those?

[@brandonbarclay7575]

Sweet! Tiger build and weathering all in one video... Only channel that does this right so far... Great explanations and quality.

Terrific job, absolute masterpiece. Definitely gonna build a Tiger 1 with a snow camo after seeing this beauty

[@carlosvanvegas]

This was fun, nicely thought out design and layout to best use of the cameras, and cracking music...

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

+Carl Salisbury Thank you

[@mightoftradition5586]

@@AndysHobbyHeadquarters Can we roll the wheels of tamiya models?

[@sparx550]

That was a real pleasure to watch and the finished result is absolutely brilliant.

[@Rost12345]

supeer, this is very beautiful. And tiger is my favorite tank. Greting from Russia ( P.S. sorry for mistakes )

[@antonkhalamayzer1379]

Rostislav Sidorov they don’t have auto correct in Russia

[@LambdaJM]

Thank you Andy! Through your videos I am getting interested in building scale models again (after I did some in my childhood). Greetings from Germany!

[@biggee9266]

I just built this exact same kit, quite a joy, perfect typical Tamiya fit and finish. I like how you tackled the winter paint scheme. It really came together with that hairspray wash. Thanks for sharing.

[@dannymiller3315]

I built the 1975 tiger one from tamiya but i just did the overall desert yellow with light brown and weathered it with dust and rust pretty good kit

[@Z3kyTw0]

Great Build Andy !!

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

+sekytwo THANK YOU

[@paulgreen6903]

Great show. You are a master of showing , How- to- SNOW- Your-Tank. Also your music is of good taste, It allows you, to think, and check, about each step, as you go apon your way, to be finishing a product. NICE.

[@bigbuild9993]

Thanks heaps for this, I'm at the stage of using hairspray, FYI, if you let the water soak into the paint for 30 seconds you don't need to scrub so hard. Thanks for the tutorial, just the perfect amount of time.

[@robbroy]

Sir you are a Wizard!!! You make this look to easy that's the only problem!

[@PopaVladOctavian]

Wow, just wow! If it wasn't for the background, I could swear it's a real tank. Amazing job!

[@TheDaltonius]

Thx for saving me for total disaster with my tiger l,love your videos, they are very helpful

[@CaptChaos1964]

Superb job, I’ve had one of these kits for about four years, this may inspire me to get it built.

[@xarathustra1]

Thank you! I'm just coming back to modelling after a...40 year break! If I can get my Panzer Ausf.D even half as good as you have here, I'll be happy. I think I'm going to need a decent sprayer soon!!

[@christisking7778]

Are you still doing models?

[@thorsonhammerstall]

This was an absolutely amazing video!! I have tried a couple of winter camos before and they never looked realistic enough. After watching you complete this masterpiece, I can't wait to give it another shot Thank you so much for sharing your techniques!!

[@CurvedSlightly]

Ze Germanz loved their wheels.

[@cjmaloney69]

Nice! Loved the soundtrack, too.

[@originunknown3209]

Superb!!! And this is a go to blueprint to any novice starting out on weathering!!! Very informative!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@11bravo1789]

Just used your weathering technique on a dragon 1/35 Tiger. Worked awesome. Came out very good on the one i did. Also, having now done one Tamiya tiger tank and one dragon that was more expensive. The Tamiya kit fit together better, and overall seemed higher quality. Just didnt come with as many pieces as the more expensive dragon

[@dannymiller3315]

Tamiya is a good company iv bought uss hornet, uss yorktown, a 1975 tiger 1 and a m41 walker bulldog all were easy to make and well detailed as well as durable for a model

[@finndamage]

Can't believe how easy you can make it look. Awesome work and A+ for the video and explanation.

[@FirstKenpachi007]

Amazin! it feels like its moving forward in Eastern Front real quick!

[@panzertracks]

Great job on the paint, eastern front 4sure. Thanks for sharing

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Thank you for watching

[@semiretired6033]

My fav German ww2 tank. You made your model look just as you would see it on the field in combat . Amazing work!!!

[@wezzskebab3454]

woow this tutorial inspires me to go and build my own winter camo tank ...looks awesome..greetz from holland

[@michaelc9310]

I am building this kit now... hint on the braided hose you need to cut to length, heat the cut ends with a flame like you would a nylon rope to keep it from fraying. it forms nicely and is much easier to glue in place.

[@g4340]

Love it! I've always wanted to do models but being on disability I just can't afford it. I live vicariously through you. Awesome models, great channel!

[@boltuss]

a nice how to, yes a lot of steps to get it to look right but worth it at finish

[@scottholpfer9379]

Hi Andy. Your videos are awesome and also made me a customer. Just got back into the hobby. Your weathering is mind boggling.

[@troyfritz5857]

I am working on this kit right now. Painted and used the black n white. Before panzer grey. Building a diorama for TRICON 2018 in Pittsburg pa. Love tamiya. SGT. FRITZ OVER N OUT.

[@bogdansandu8892]

Awesome waltz,wonderfull model!A big 10 plus!!!

[@jamesshoffner409]

You Sir are an true artist. Excellent work !!

[@kevinkent5646]

fantastic a true artist great watching you work mate brilliant

[@daveybyrden3936]

At 1:20 you apparently add glue to the idler swing arm. This arm is what controls the track tension and I don't advise you to fix it until you're happy with how the tracks sit.

[@vincentbergman739]

Just started the very same model. Well done on the winter effects. Loved the music as well

[@rglover82201]

Bravo. So for the past few days I've been watching alot of your videos. I actually just left a comment on one of them asking you to show how to do a winter weathering then I found this video. Now I've watched you do probably 10 tanks now, including the King Tiger with full interior. All your work is top notch. But this vide is by far my favorite. Because this one looks really weathered. I can see this tank on the fiel. The only thing I think that could have been like the icing on the cake is if you had given it some battle damage. Which I would really love to see you do a tutorial on how to add scars to tanks. I don't just mean chipping, but like glancing hits where the armor got gouged or a hit by a bazooka that didnt quite fully penetrate the armor. If this tank had some of that it would be truly breath taking. But still I love your videos, I like that you have pleasant music in the background instead of some rave music like I have seen other videos do. Although Swan Lake is getting a little old. You should switch it up throw in some Beethoven, Mozart, or Bach. But seriously thank you so much for your videos. I live in Wyoming and I wish I lived close to your store. I'm thinking about getting back into modeling and would love to support your store and get your tips. Speaking of tips. So I watched a video a younger guy did. And like you he used the light glue for most of his build. But when he attached his armor plates and his hull build he said he uses a heavy glue for a better hold. Now was he just being over cautious, is this something I should actually consider? Just curious because I can tell you have been building a long time.

[@americanpanzer4163]

For the glancing blows i would say get an appropriately sized screw driver or metal rod thing or, heat it up then just gently scrape the armor, might work it might not.

[@VonDrinkoften]

Really cool tutorial on applying the white wash. Looks great and convinced me to have a crack at it myself.

[@russelljames5369]

Ok. oh by the way loving the whole package of your tutorial vids. quality editing, picture and sound! ☺

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Catching up on some of your older videos and found this one. One of the best Panzer grey schemes I have come across (shame to cover it up) and loved how you layered the whitewash and gave it a worn and weathered look. Great job on painting and weathering overall!

[@mrblackpublications]

Excellent video! I am sure you will help all the newcomers and the old ones that came back!! Go on! The video made me to go for a Tiger I construction!

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Thank you , i am glad you liked it
