Building Dragon Panzer 4 Reconnaissance Tank. From Start to Finish.

English subtitles are available. This is a complete build of Dragon's Pz.Beob.Wg.IV Ausf. J Tank in 1/35 scale. This is truly a complete build in which you get to see the build, painting, and weathering. Enjoy

[@antoniomanuelrodriguezcaro1604]

[@qdc748a]

[@mattsmiddy40]

What a job, well done.

[@qdc748a]

+mattsmiddy40 Thanks

[@Feliciajudo]

Great video as always. Very interesting vehicle, the Panzerbeobachtungswagen IV was a vehicle that had special radio equipment. Another model that you could considerate is Flakpanzer IV, wxist several options and look impressive just at side of this. Great job, that God bless you and thanks by your efforts in modelism. Greetings from Venezuela

[@kenrice6085]

You are very good at keeping your work in focus. Thanks for your time and effort.

[@charlie418791]

Great job,Q. Always enjoy your builds. Keep 'em coming.

[@qdc748a]

+Charlie McCarthy Yes, I'll keep them coming :)

[@cyber3408]

I watched this video with my mouth wide open ! The painting and weathering you have done is absolutely amazing another great modelkit qdc!

[@qdc748a]

+Mr.snipeskater Those are very flattering words! Thank you very much. I honestly appreciate them :)

[@markharrison3973]

Thanks for the reply. very kind of you.

[@qdc748a]

You're welcome

[@mrbordmechaniker]

Beautiful model, i really like the optics on the turret and the paintwork!

[@HalidonDioramas]

Very nice as always, love the paint job it came up very well, now I've added yet another tank to my list of things to build 😄

[@qdc748a]

+Halidon Cool.

[@robertvoss6145]

Your method of painting on this project has created great depth to your models paint . well done

[@qdc748a]

+Robert voss Thanks. This experiment worked out well.

[@JoeMakesModelKits]

Very Very excellent build Collin! I really love how you did the preshading and the weathering. It really makes the tank look very visually engaging! Keep up the fantastic work! :)

[@qdc748a]

+Joe Makes Model Kits Thanks. This was a good project :)

[@johnburdis5352]

A good build of the panzerVI J. The colour modulation was great. You must enjoy modelling because you're always smiling,so do I.

[@timtheeagle1]

YAAAAY! Always excited for a new QDC video. Looks pretty good to me! I really appreciate you taking the time to do this, when I sit down and do a model, I can't be bothered recording my work or building through a viewfinder and smiling for a camera...lots of credit to you for the amount of work that goes into these videos. Thanks very much! Always love German Armour too!

[@qdc748a]

+Tim Bryant Your welcome. I'm glad you liked it :)

[@ludovicflorent72]

good job QDC

[@qdc748a]

+ludo florent Thanks for your kind words :)

[@nk3682]

I like the new painting and chipping technique looks very realistic. Good job!

[@qdc748a]

+Noah Keegstra Thanks. I like it myself. I will do on my next model.

[@fokker51]

Your paint always seems to go down nice and smooth. Really enjoy your builds.

[@qdc748a]

+fokker51 Thanks :)

[@Footplate2012]

That's a great build QDC and a very interesting painting technique. Love it :)

[@qdc748a]

+Footplate2012 Thanks

[@McRocket]

Your videos have a relaxing/ASMR quality to them (as well as being interesting). Thank you.

[@HarryHoudiniModels]

I was worried when you chipped before you put the colour coat on but it came out beautifully.. thanks for showing this method and an excellent result on the Dragon Pzr.IV

[@qdc748a]

+Harry Houdini I like use this technique. I might use it more often.

[@HarryHoudiniModels]

Yes its somehting new on your video clips.. and something I have also tried but not in the exact same way.. worth exploring more

[@gruppenfuhrer45]

As always my friend great job! In my opinion, you are an expert.

[@davesawdey9468]

You are a credit to the hobby my friend.

[@qdc748a]

+Dave Sawdey Thanks!!! :)

[@ArmourEmpire]

Nice modulation Colin. That worked out really well

[@qdc748a]

+Armour Empire Thanks. I might use this technique more often.

[@reconranger1370]

Hey Q, you did a really nice job on this kit. Dragons can be a challenge and you make it look so simple. Tanks for sharing? J

[@qdc748a]

+Joseph Mays You'r welcome.

[@mikeleon2435]

Great , I enjoy all your builds looking forward next one

[@qdc748a]

+Mike Leon Thanks

[@ganoostermoppy4325]

Unbelievable build, really unreal well done.

[@qdc748a]

+Ganooster Moppy :)

[@JoseDanielMassterOzymandiasMx]

Great job, my friend. I like the weathering. Impressive.

[@qdc748a]

+Jose Daniel Masster_Ozymandias Thank you :)

[@arnemreistad]

I finished a model the other night and thought to myself, Now it's time to paint the model. Keep up the work, really like your videos. Do the UDT model please

[@gruppenfuhrer45]

Awesome job as always sir. Expert work!!!!

[@Hakumai_o7]

Yes! At last you've done a Panzer IV! I was actually gonna ask why you hadn't done one until now

[@qdc748a]

+The Zephyr You're welcome. Panzer 4 are cool tanks.

[@sk8nuget]

Your videos are awesome dude! Wish I could build model kits like this lol

[@sorichar]

Great job! I like your method for painting highlights.

[@qdc748a]

+sorichar This method does look impressive.

[@TheTrack66]

Hi QDC I haven't commented your videos for a time now but as always I like em all! It's such a pleasure and very motivating watching your videos and see how truely entertained you are while building :) I hoped to see you building this tank ever since you showed us the box back in the Panther/M10 video. Thank you and have a nice day Sir! PS: Your try on the German language wasn't bad at all. Only you should try to say Beobachtung as one word and Wagen as a separat one ;)

[@qdc748a]

+R'n'S You are very welcome. It is nice to know I have viewers like yourself who watched my videos for a long time. Thank you. I hope my videos encouraged you to build your own model kits because that is my purpose :) Learning another language is challenging but rewarding at the same time. I appreciate your correction on speaking the word "Beobachtung." Take care and have a great day! :)

[@atompilzfresser2994]

Wow! It looks so realistic! I have to use this painting-technique next time too. Great work as always QDC. My favourite of all your videos. Greetings from germany!

[@qdc748a]

+AtomPilz Fresser You are welcome. I like this technique too. I think I will use it more often.

[@mariamar2155]

you are so good man . we all enjoy your videos . GOOD WORK . ALWAYS WITH SMILE

[@qdc748a]

+Maria Mar Thanks

[@FreeLikeABuzzard]

Another awesome build - nice work!

[@qdc748a]

+Jay Jones Thanks

[@zmjzmx]

this is the best model i have seen from you so far. gd job Q! you really should use this way of painting more often, it gives a very nice result :) Just 1 tip though, the chipping would look better if you used a piece of sponge and lesser paint on it. it gives the chipping a realistic look

[@qdc748a]

+Mingxin Zhao Thanks. I'll use a sponge next time :)

[@Charlitification]

Always à pleasure to watch your vidéos. hello from France QDC !

[@qdc748a]

+DiscoStick Je vous en prie.

[@gaustadtpanzer3606]

I love your videos! I have the Dragon Kugelblitz and was left with a TON of extra parts. Something like 3 full extra spures for the Jagdpanzer IV. I swear Dragon likes to tease! LOL! Great job on the model!

[@qdc748a]

Dragon is known for lots of parts!

[@gaustadtpanzer3606]

Lots of extras! I currently am working on their Kugelblitz and have been halted 4 times now in any progress! First I ran out of paint, then I had an epic airbrush failure that ended up breaking multiple parts and forced me to buy a new one. Got the new airbrush and tried new paint with it. When I was cleaning my new airbrush the trigger fell down the drain! I swear this kit is cursed! LOL!

[@matejuzelac4606]

You are really an Optimist thats why i was watching you from start :) You teached me so many things with this vids Thank you :DD

[@daciukfilms]

wow really cool

[@qdc748a]

+Reece Thank you

[@daciukfilms]

+qdc748a No problem and keep up the good work 👍

[@stonedfish99]

I am currently building a 1/350 scale USS New Jersey Very nice kit

[@qdc748a]

+DELT SLAYER Cool. 1/350 is an impressive scale. I visited the New Jersey during the 1980's. It's a cool ship! I'm sure your project will turn out looking great!

[@ellispawson663]

Very Cool.....Another Sweet Build from you.

[@qdc748a]

+Ellis Pawson Thanks

[@DESooner333]

I lived in Germany for 6 years. Your German pronunciation is better than mine lol. Great model.

[@qdc748a]

+Mark Witcher :) Cute. Thanks

[@andymandyandsheba4571]

great build david the model looks amazing

[@qdc748a]

+Andy Coakes You're welcome :)

[@andysmith5152]

another excellent build and vid, i was wondering how it was going to look doing it that way, one of the best pal

[@qdc748a]

+Andy Smith Thanks. It's a new technique. I will do this again.

[@andysmith5152]

i would, its looks very good

[@The.Pyro.Hunter]

Your german is great an the Model too👌

[@qdc748a]

+Dominik Brandenburg Thank you

[@The.Pyro.Hunter]

No Problem! :)

[@blackcobra689]

This is kind of like an ASMR video. -Nice build!

[@qdc748a]

You're the first viewer who compares me to that. Cool.

[@blackcobra689]

qdc748a Yes, that is kind of cool. -Thanks!

[@GaryArmstrongmacgh]

Collin...that item you referred to as the rear of the hull. That's actually a glacis plate for a JagdPz IV. It can be used in a scratch build for a tank destroyer such as that. These extra parts are often compatible with Italeri kits. It makes those kits much nicer. A bonus with the nice Dragon kit you already got.

[@qdc748a]

+Gary Armstrong Cool. Thanks for the info :)

[@Lee78072]

Dragon is really going insane with the Details.

[@Luftangreifer]

+Lee78072 go build trump`s T90 lol

[@qdc748a]

+Lee78072 This one does have lots of tiny parts :)

[@Lee78072]

qdc748a Indeed. Dragon is really good at this. I would not be surprised if they would put the Rivets as seperate parts on the Sprue too...

[@modeltankguy]

awesome video great work on the tank love the paint work n the steps to the finished kit keep them videos coming bro n welcome bck

[@qdc748a]

+Gilbert Lathlin Thanks

[@steves1112000]

Another good one. I really enjoy all your videos.

[@qdc748a]

+Stephen Smith You're welcome :)

[@steves1112000]

+qdc748a Just thought you'd like to know; I am working on a p39 Airacobra from the Pacific theater. In addition to the usual pre/post shading, I also do an overspay of buff paint. It's a great technique, not just for armor, but aircraft as well.

[@MrWangchuan]

Grad to see you using new tech to paint a tank!

[@qdc748a]

+Chuan Wang This technique is cool. I might use this more often.

[@bobahnert9213]

WOW! You really did an outstanding build but the paint and weathering on this piece is truly amazing! You did this kit justice with your talents Colin, now do you have a diorama in mind for this model?!

[@qdc748a]

+bob ahnert Thanks. Probably not, at least for now.

[@claytonmcclain182]

really nice build, and video. great job.

[@qdc748a]

+Plasticarmour Thank you

[@Subzero2151]

Great video as always QDC, people were not kidding when they say Dragon kits have a lot of parts, I think I might just stick with Tamiya for now, but would like to try a dragon model tank in the future

[@qdc748a]

+Subzero2151 Not all Dragon kits have many parts but must do. One of these days I'm sure you will have the skills to tackle such a kit. Take care :)

[@Knut528]

Sehr gut gemacht !!!

[@qdc748a]

+Knut528 Vielen Dank. Ich versuchte mein Bestes.

Great tank!!! You should try building the American T95 super heavy tank. It's a little challenging but a great model kit in my book.

[@NapFloridian]

for not being a German native speaker, you did a good job. quick advise E in German is not pronounced I like Beer (BI) but AE. So Beobachtungs is pronounced Beao-bag-tungs. ;)

[@qdc748a]

+NapFloridian Thanks. Learning German is not as hard as I thought. Thank you for helping me correct my pronunciation. :)

[@user-lw7om1sg1m]

Well done with your German pronunciation very good
