ICM 1/35 Henschel 33D Part 1

#scalemodelling #kitreview #spanishcivilwar
This is the first episode of the build series for the ICM 1/35 Henschel 33D and AFV Club 88mm Flak 18.
A new video series focusing on the vehicles used during the Spanish Civil War, all models will be in 1/35 scale with the occasional larger model. A laid back series of videos that should be interesting and informative.

Nice video! I actually like to see the whole process of you building it as it gives me, a beginner, a lot of tips and tricks, and most youtubers don't show the build process as much as they show the painting process :) Cheers!

[@ChampionScaleModelling]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@vicparratt7523]

Seeing you assemble that chassis reminds me of years ago when I was building a lot of AMT vehicles. I used to strap one side of the chassis to a steel ruler and then work off that thus ensuring no warpage in the chassis side frames. Best wishes Vic.

That was very enjoyable Jason as a returning modeler i have fallen on my face with a couple of interior kits and your explanation of what you were doing and how to trouble shoot was very helpful . Thanks for taking the time to make the video . Regards Gav.

[@ChampionScaleModelling]

Glad you enjoyed it and glad to be a help to you 👍

[@petergowans49]

The question of detailed engines ,and a bonnet. I cut the thing in two and glue it in an open position. A figure with a wrench in his hand is a nice frame for the engine

[@mattperson7293]

definitely prefer this format. I tend to glaze over a bit with the music ones.

[@janbissinger2978]

Yes I really like the new format, the whole build and your wise words is just great

[@andrewshawmodels8610]

Good stuff - really enjoyed watching. Lots of interesting tips and techniques, thanks. Not one I'd tackle myself I don't think - 'vagueness' is not something I'm looking for! Especially with such tiny, fragile fiddly parts. I'll be looking into one of those cutting boards for certain - I didn't know there was such a thing. Great content! Cheers.

Enjoyable meditative watch; got half the wheels of my current build (Tamiya Sherman easy 8 for a T31 conversion) cleaned up while watching. Nice to learn something new in the background...had stopped using the Tamiya Yellow, but may use it again for certain jobs as per your tip.

[@bubbapipe]

Hey Jason, I believe the part you are calling a cylinder is actually the air filter housings that are connected to the intakes....not judging just putting it out there if you wanted to know. Very enjoyable build so far, thank you for the content.

[@ChampionScaleModelling]

Thanks for the info, sounds right! Keep an eye on part two they’ll be more to name I’m sure! 👍

[@guidor.4161]

Yes, probably an oil bath filter :-)

Hi I have been dropping in and out of your channel for some time. Look forward to the new way forward. I have just finished the Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire Mk1. Its the best model I have completed at this scale. You will find the "sky" blue/grey a thorny one, as the originals where subject to many interpretations and instructions from the air ministry during the 1940's. My next aircraft build will be the Airfix Mk1 Hurricane at 1/48 scale. It will be built to represent Douglas Baders aircraft at the time. I used Tamiya acrylic paints for the Spit and they have a "sky" in their range. The Hurricane I propose to use Mr Hobby paints to see if there is more authenticity. I think sometimes we over complicate this hobby and loose sight of the reason why we build models. Keep the faith, look forward to the "updates" Tony

The imaginary audience, is exactly why I haven't done any proper builds on KZbin I have tried a few times but I get to edit and scrap it... it's a strange sensation, why am I talking to this wall , what if someone is filming me and uploading that to KZbin with a bait click title nutter is talking to himself again.. it's just a alien feeling to me almost like schizophrenia role play. But you do a great job mate getting over that hump. Appreciate it

[@johnvoss7103]

I did the radio version and it’s a mare of kit to do, it’s fiddly as they come, you have to be very careful with them, make no sudden movements, lol.

[@iannicholls7476]

Hi, interesting stuff. What make are the tweezer style spruce nippers you are using? Where did you get them?

[@AFV85]

There your air filters the round sticky up bits haha

[@mikelritchjr5911]

That bit appears to be the air intake/air filter

[@mikelritchjr5911]

They are called spindles

[@corradolaccetti1209]

Hi I'm an Italian model maker I have a question: is this model for an intermediate model maker or only for an expert model maker? I don't want to feel frustration. Thank you

[@glensmith3379]

Hi dude could you please tell me where you can get the spue cutters that you use. Thanks. Glen 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ChampionScaleModelling]

Have a look on my channel I have a playlist for tools and did a 2 minute video on them 👍

[@glensmith3379]

@@ChampionScaleModelling Hi dude, thanks for the reply. Found the info on your site and its now on order..You should be on commission

[@cygnusx10]

Are the instructions really not that great on this kit that you have to "guess" where to put some parts? And I think that kits that will allow you to put parts together back to front/upside down etc need really good, clear instructions. Either way, it looks like you're making progress with it. Look forward to next vid.

[@ChampionScaleModelling]

Yes they are a bit confusing, it’s all there but you have to study it a bit and the locating holes are a bit shallow.....we will get there though!!

[@AFV85]

Be very careful of very soft like revell kits! There new wot 6 and 8 fordsons are real bad really nice once build and modded but instructions are bad and plastic is crap! I like icm too! My tank kits are solid the trucks are soft taking a seamline off ruined a roof top and had to end up filling in and resurfaced the roof the sanding stick just mangled the plastic
