Although I’m watching this 4 years later, I just want to say this video really helped me. I’m planing on repainting my Marder III into a better camo with Tamiya acrylics. So thank you for uploading this video it’s helping a lot

[@Manteuffel13]

Definitely teaching this old dog some new tricks- thanks Andy!

[@andrewnorris1218]

I've struggled so long in fixing such track links, in less than 5 mins I realised how to do it whilst watching this. Cheers!

It's been a while since I have commented on your videos. I purchased that same kit in Dec 2018 and now I am going to build it. I spent some time going over the kit and now I have the time to work on it. Now I have all three Marder models. Thanks for the review and the work you have done.

[@garylawless3608]

As always Andy, this was great build. I am 66 years old with some time on my hands now, and just getting back into modelling after many years away from the hobby, and I find your videos a great help. I find that so much has changed over the years, not only the quality of the models now available, but the many and varied accessories that can assist in making your model look just the way you like it. This video format is also very helpful, as it can be viewed many times. I look forward to many more of your quality instructional videos. Keep up the great work.

[@jdc121]

Am just getting in to the hobby. Gary lawless. what brand should I go for?? ...

[@Iluvwuman]

@@jdc121 I would say if you are a beginning modeler, go for the easy build kits, or snap kits. They are great, but you might still need to paint them. If you are comfortable with gluing and sanding, go for the Tamiya and Revell kits. They have lots of detail, and if you finish one nicely, it will look spectacular!

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

The branches are a nice touch

[@zachnar0125]

Love this one! Oldie but goodie!

[@Wolfhead101]

Loving the foliage! Rare to see a German western front vehicle without it.

[@jdc121]

Wolfhead101. yep use watch ww2 movies with my dad. German tanks had firepower. So did the us Russia and the allies plus Japan.

[@rodplumb]

Wow! The branches really finish it. Great looking model.

[@thomascampbell4730]

The foliage works! Great look and definitely appropriate for a vehicle hiding from the yabos.

[@stevemahalko1146]

Hello Andy,,, great to see your expanding your store ! I am 71 and you got me back into modeling after a long 60 year lapse, I forgot how satisfying modeling can be. I've done a lot of armor ...thanks to you. I've seen you do 1 ship and 1 plane. Now I would like to issue a challenge to you and do a sailing Ship !! A perfect one to start with would be the Lindbergh " JOLLY ROGER" ! I do believe you would enjoy it. Think about it pal.

[@joeshmoe9978]

That tree branch looks super realistic! Best I've seen, for sure.

[@timvaughn8696]

Greatbuild Love he added leaves

[@wyattsmith9554]

Some of your finest work yet! I’m only 15 and I have a lot to learn but you’re a big inspiration, keep it up my guy

[@einefreunde]

Stunning

[@georgeszweden9497]

Amazing job

[@rossfromfriends8468]

The notification came up for this as I’m building my own tamiya Matilda kit :) yes I watched Andy’s video on it lol

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

Superb Andy! Gotta be your best ever? Nothing mediocre about this one. 👍🏻

[@rickpalo1]

Andy, I have been modeling for over 60 years. I have always enjoyed it, watching you is like they say (going to college). Your videos are so informative & uplifting, thank you for a great series of learning. Great work!

[@elwinvandalen6645]

Looks awesome!

[@reconranger1370]

Nice one Andy!!!

[@larryscarafile7309]

Love the addition of the branches. Brings the kit to another level.

[@stephenharrington528]

Yet again A great kit from tamiya andy you certainly nailed this one and the weathering was brilliant fantastic Steve 🇬🇧

[@davidwallace6811]

Nice one Andy

[@darknut9696]

When attaching the wheels without gluing, I use tissue paper to act as sleeve to firmly secure the wheel to the chassis so they can be painted individually or used for the link-n-link tracks

[@haleygerdes5248]

Love your videos, Andy... watching them takes me back to being a kid in the early 80s, Squad Leader boardgames, building a model in my attic bedroom late at night, and my mom and dad are still alive :) thanks for the therapy sessions

[@ethanrhodeback9998]

I love your videos your probably they only one that does a perfect video of modeling of tanks and air planes keep up the great work

[@AugustusCaesar88]

Treena Rhodeback you should check out PLASMOs channel as well. Him and Andy are the best model channel on KZbin. Plasmos videos are utterly incredible, his modeling skills are out of this world. Both channels are very different in approach but both are amazing.

[@mikep3180]

Check out plasmo

[@alangee2200]

Thanks for this one Andy ! 👍 🇬🇧

[@scaleacesmodeling116]

Another absolute stunning build. Great work!

[@garyparker2969]

Beautiful Work Andy and the Branches add Even More Details, thank you for Sharing Your Fun With Us, God Bless All

[@russellwilliams825]

Wow, Andy! Excellent as always. I like the format you used in this video. Thanks for your time and efforts!

[@oliverpaul6021]

Expert, thank you for your time and your videos.

[@samjones1751]

Great build as usual Andy love your videos I learn a lot from watching them.

[@ianbrown9108]

Another cracking build.Nicely done Andy.

[@pilotkellen7674]

You inspired me. I am now looking forward to building model kits!

[@davepearce6359]

One of my favourite builds so far Andy. The addition of foliage is a great touch. Looking forward to the dioramas too. Thank you. 👍🏻😎 D.

[@silverdragontm9548]

Super nice model again, with the leaves and branches ist looks just awesome!

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Excellent video, thanks 👍 I like how you broke down the weathering on the road wheels. Looks great!

[@IRAQIWILDMAN1]

That was great how you showed the wheel weathering step by step.

[@cruzmzuniga8400]

Great video really liked the track assembly and wheel weathering section.

[@DJ118USMC]

Love the Marder III TD's. They are so cool. Marder III H is my favorite version. :)

[@astolatpere11]

One of your best. Thanks.

[@vikesfan_69]

This has to be Andy's best build to date. Painting, weathering all awesome! 👍

[@trevoratchison3904]

Watching this Marder build and the way everything went to plan was great I built this kit so I stopped and started, following and it was so easy.

[@g.b.8445]

As always Andy, great build and video, and none of the nerve jangling music some people feel the need to include, thanks for sharing.

[@ismr2356]

Nice work!

[@wendygibeau770]

You did a great job on that model

[@carlr.2322]

Another great build Andy such a wealth of information and cool ideas

[@seandickie6289]

Hi Andy love the vids keep up the great work👍

[@richardsveum8452]

that looks incredible.

[@samiam5557]

Ausgezeichnet! Zehr gut, and all that kraut talk, the branches are the final garnish on a excellent job! PS:Traverse & Elevate main gun are the 'correct' terms. LOL

[@jerryplews1023]

Love the branches

[@keithmoody4316]

BTW: Gorgeous finish - the leaves are a spectacular finishing touch for an already spectacularly well finished kit. Just realized I have the Tamiya kit in my stash😁

[@timdywelska1719]

This is one of my favourite builds by Andy! I think this model is exceptional!

[@duskobaca]

I really like your channel Andy. Honestly, I have to say, that this is one of the nicest builds in the past few months I have seen from you. And a really nice touch with the branches there, by the way. Looking forward for another build of yours

[@panzertracks]

very nice, thanks for sharing.

[@BalovnevStudio]

Hi, Andy ! Great model ! Good luck in further construction.

[@travis_thompson]

Currently building an german armour display case from an old wooden ammo box, this will be on the list to go in it for sure

[@donnicoll1570]

Thank you Andy for the video of your brilliant Marder. Love your channel as it really helps me. I am one of your many "mediocre modellers" fans!!!

Great video!

[@americanpatriot2422]

FYI, because of your outstanding videos I have become a regular customer to web store for not only models but but hobby supplies. Thank you Mr. Andy for keeping the hoby alive. I live in California and I hope to soon make a road trip in cooler times to visit your expanded new store.

[@jurgenerikalex-hiron5167]

Oh nice...! 👍👍

[@Darckstar52]

Nice! Liken the camo.

[@mrcrabscrusty]

The video is great

[@amirsabrinatv3960]

Wow you are a great master

[@Elfwingson]

Yep, the branches makes it all come together👍🏼

[@strontiumstargazer3124]

The Normandy look is good. I’m just finishing a Wespe referencing your Wespe build and will add some of these Marder AK techniques to blend in with the planned diorama.

[@MrKersey]

Great work, Andy, I really enjoy watching you build and paint all those models. I'd only add a metal barrel instead of plastic one, but that's unnecessary. Thanks

[@croatianknight8594]

Beautiful kit. I prefer Eastern Front 1944-45. Wermacht. Especially Panzergrenadier Grossdeutchland div. Everybody has favorite theatre of operations.

[@Phickic]

great vid

[@chelseachelseaboy]

Love the Marder's....will get this as soon as it's available in the UK, Panda Hobby have a great Marder I kit which seems to have been missed by most Model stores.

[@redgreen09]

neat stuff like it and post em, will see more

[@juanluisraya4264]

Es una pena no ver el trabajo terminado con las figuras. De todas maneras es excelente la lección. Muchas gracias por dedicar su tiempo. el resultado es magnífico. Un abrazo desde España

[@harryainsworth6923]

very nice, easily one of your best. The only thing i might recommend is a oil dot filer, just to add a little fading and color variation to the big flat surfaces

[@georgetompkins5438]

outstanding. you da man

[@kevinjhonson5925]

I love Tamiya kits the perfect balance in parts count an details. I just am working on a Dragon Paton and had to stop for a week to ket my finger tips heal up from blade cuts from the hundreds of tiny parts.

[@Duececoupe]

Andy and Luka videos waiting for you, when you get home from the nightshift, this is gonna be a good weekend! Looking great buddy! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻😍

[@seandickie6289]

?

[@alantaylor1445]

Very nice and subtle with the weathering which is good. Many overdo the weathering which, especially for German vehicles in late war, is a bit OTT as they didn’t last long in general. German tanks, from what I’ve read, were mostly reasonable new, if not brand new by the time they were knocked out. At worst most tanks would be a little dusty I would imagine. Watching some colour WW2 footage seems to support this. Well done and please keep broadcasting.

[@martinjenkins6472]

Andy, the branches look great! They finish off a really nice model perfectly. (But you really need to do the figures :) )

[@rubenbremer8234]

Hey Andy, great vid! Would you mind maybe making a vid about painting figures? I still tend to struggle with that. Keep it up!

[@azynkron]

Have a look at Adam Savage's channel (Tested) where they do several figurines paint jobs. He used to work for ILM so he knows what he's doing.

[@user-ro1cs5hp5e]

Awesome job! I would like to have one of those for my birthday gift that has been in february lol ! _D

[@randygagliano5984]

the tree branches really set off the model

[@SEAKPhotog]

Love the branches! Maybe a foliage tutorial in the future? Nice looking kit. Kinda surprised you didn't do any modulation on all those nice flat panels. Looks good tho for sure. Thanks for all your helpful videos.

[@willrh1022]

Build the maus with full interior

[@Phickic]

i would love to see that

[@thingsthatfly6055]

Yea me to

[@StrohmaniasFlyingCircus]

I hear it has a pub with a pool table. :- |

[@janlanci3755]

MAUS :-)

[@no.7893]

Strohmann thats nothing, the TOG ii has a full length Olympic swimming pool and a home theatre

[@averypayne9520]

As always, excellent build! Recently I saw BaremetalHW do a neat idea where he did a circular diorama thing to sit on top of his turntable and display the finished products, it might be a cool little side project!

[@hobbyhermit66]

Sweet

[@danielkonrad1444]

Oh great. Now i need a Marder too.

[@corrioliseffect]

Really great work, Andy! Yours is now one of my favorite channels! Say, I have a technical question, if I may. I really like the punching of real leaves, but since they are real, won't they biodegrade; turn brown and crumble with time? Keep up the great work!
