How To Turn a Tank Into A Mech- The War Wagon Kitbash

[@Gloomwalker08]

DAAAANNNNNGGGGG. Your lore was absolutely beautifully written! Holy moly, I was NOT expecting to want to cry over some piece of fiction written for wonderful scratch build! Bravo, I say! Bravo!

[@capnskustomworks]

We coulda watched staticky Big Lebowski together, but instead ye made us cry with eloquent, tragic speculative fiction?!? 😆 That was absolutely beautifully built as well as written! I really love the cockpit, and all the little details, like the equipment area damage and all that tiny rebar!!! Excellent job!

[@ethobbyshow]

When I get the patreon up we will watch static big lebowski all the time hahaha

[@zeterzero4356]

That story was amazing. I wasn't sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that in a good way. Awesome build and incredible writing. God bless and thanks for sharing.

[@ethobbyshow]

That makes me happy! I'm so glad you enjoyed it

[@Stefano-Solo-Skywatcher]

Wow, mi piace tantissimo! Ottimo lavoro 💪🏻💪🏻

[@StagDigital]

You gonna blow up on youtube soon my guy

[@justsomeguy3983]

putting wire through the legs is such a good idea! my days of hoping and praying my shoddy lil plastic glued arms dont fall off are over

[@ethobbyshow]

Lmao we all learn through trial and error

[@dannysrecreationalspace4947]

Great build man! Keep up the good work!

[@foxhoundms9051]

Randomly found this video. Because I have THE SAME tank model kit laying around I wanted to do something with and I love mechs 🤣 and then you bust out the VHS Lebowski and Jurassic Park. Liked and subbed. Side note: My brother is a garbage man and he just rescued a VHS copy of Blazing Saddles for me!

[@ethobbyshow]

OHHHH YES!Mr wilder is the best, also if you do turn your m41 into a mech I'd love to see a picture of it. So @ me on insta gram. Tha k you for the support as well!

[@patentmicrobe6187]

Great job! That story was awesome, I can’t wait for more!

[@ethobbyshow]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@adamroban7934]

[@ethobbyshow]

Thank you so much!

[@cerisekappes580]

Such an incredible build and story… I’m completely invested in this! Can’t wait for more awesome builds and stories to come 😊 Such an amazing mech!!! ❤😊❤

[@ethobbyshow]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

[@cerisekappes580]

@@ethobbyshow I most definitely enjoyed 😊😊😊

[@TheLichsLaboratory]

Man i gotta say this is might be my favorite build yet! All the shapes just mesh together so well! And even if the cockpit details are obscured, we got to see it briefly in the video before it was covered up so that's all that matters 🤣 Really enjoyed the intro as well! I too am perplexed by how video comes out of tape, especially sound

[@ethobbyshow]

I know right, like how! How can it make those sounds lol an thanks man I think it's my favorite as well. I hid alot of detail I'm him, but I rekon that's the battle, you win and you lose some

[@tosteson1]

Love your whole vibe, dude.

[@ethobbyshow]

I try to give good vibes always!

[@tosteson1]

@@ethobbyshow Success. Also this build is so inspiring and creative. I love your writing too.

[@ethobbyshow]

@tosteson1 if you build your own be sure to tag me on IG! An thank you so much. I try my best lol

[@MJRLHobbyStuff]

Heay! Looks like I am your 1,000th subscriber!!!

[@ethobbyshow]

I'm gonna write that on a board somewhere lol

[@ethobbyshow]

Thank you so much!

[@bubbadoom1837]

That was great! I was a bit disappointed at first, I thought it might have something to do with the John Wayne move The War Wagon. That disappointment didn't last long, though. Wonderful build! I quite liked the back story, too. It was bitter sweet. I couldn't help but have one phrase come to mind. Deo Vindice. This build, and your story reminds me that New Years is coming, and why those of us that know, eat blackeyed peas that day.

[@ethobbyshow]

We always did that, also have to comment my favorite John Wayne movie is north to Alaska, and I'm glad you enjoyed the build anyways! Thanks for watching

[@bubbadoom1837]

@@ethobbyshow oh keep doing it. It shouldn't be a tradition that's lost. Keep the build coming, too!

[@clownienerf]

Your channel just popped up and I'm finding it quite amusing. There was something that however was bothering me but I couldn't just quite figure out....... There's no English accent LoL. For the love of God there's an actual entertaining kit bashing video from the USA (I think). 😂

[@ethobbyshow]

USA 🇺🇸, the great bluegrass state of Kentucky to be exact, horse capital of the world that makes burboun, and I'm only 20 minutes away from the original KFC. Welcome aboard friend hope you like what you watch!

[@Jimijamcrafting]

nice I have something like this but yours I like way beter! keep it up id love to see more variants or diff colors.

[@ethobbyshow]

I definitely plan on doing more along with the lore, and the timeliness of Gemini. I juts have to write more lol 😆

[@anthonydavis4957]

Incredible build- The paint choice was fantastic- So detailed. And bro, as a hobby writer myself, your story was fantastic! 🦾🖤 And a Blockbuster vhs Lebowski tribute too- Haha Subscribed 👏

[@ethobbyshow]

Thank you so much I really appreciate the kind words. An thank you for the support as well!

[@gregtoja]

Damn, instant sub mate

[@ethobbyshow]

Welcome! Hope you're doin well it's a pleasure to have ya

[@Iskelderon]

Interesting, I would've gone in quite a different direction, more "Johnny Five meets AT-ST",

[@armin8306]

This is really awesome, how do you prepare the Eva foam for painting? Isnt it kind of porous?

[@ethobbyshow]

It is slightly porous. Personally I like it. But you can always add more primer to fill it in a bit.

[@armin8306]

Hm, does paint like stay on well since it might still be kind of flexible? I know when I used it to make cos play armor I had to use a heat gun on it to solidify it a little more then spray something like a vulcanizing agent on it.

[@ethobbyshow]

@armin8306 it wouldn't hurt to use a kicker, but if the paint is watered down and applied thin it more or less dyes the foam. But also it's not flexing much when I get it into position. I use HD foam from Blick arts, the creators name is Steve he has a yt channel called sks props he's the foam master I recommend his channel 100%

[@MVeminor7]

Had to comment but I'm speechless! Great narrative. Mikey V.
