I made this kit when I was about twelve back in the 70s. I was not especially good at making kits, certainly not by today's standards, but I managed to make this so the wheels and tracks turned and the tank ran with a little pushing. I was quite proud of that.

[@MOS6510Models]

its a fun build

[@Prime-hx5tb]

Well what was the method you used to make them move ?? It would be very happy

[@udorechner6846]

It brings back childhood memories. I've had all of the models... It's nice to see that they still bring joy and are made into beautiful models by expert hands. Awesome build an paintjob.

[@MOS6510Models]

Nice finish on the venerable old Airfix kit 👍 I've recently finished a Revell IS-2 at 1:72 Those rubber one-piece tracks though... I always use an electric soldering iron, and VERY carefully melt the rubber pins through the holes (a bit like rounding off a rivet) - also melt the inner edges together to get a nice straight join. Standard soldering bit is a little clumsy for 1:72/76 kits so at those scales I replace it with a short piece of paperclip for accuracy.

[@MOS6510Models]

Good shout.. I have seen that in action with the soldering iron but I just did it as I’ve done over the years with runner glue and staples

[@DriveRams]

alright you built it now 2 kids can leave my basement

[@MOS6510Models]

ok lol

[@BozoAlert23]

bit too generous

[@clouddog2393]

Recently got into building 1/72 / 1/76 after years of building 1/35 scale a.f.v.'s . Glad that Airfix are reissueing these Classic little models that l made as a schoolboy in the 60's . Just discovered and subscibed to your channel . Nice video .

[@MOS6510Models]

Thank you.. its a nice easy kit to build

[@Fifispatular]

I built this today, fun build but quite alot of imperfections that needed to be sanded. This was my first ground kit and I went weathering galore!😂

[@MOS6510Models]

Nice work!

[@qwensy.s]

This was one of my first model kits, it was certainly fun to build.

[@MOS6510Models]

Ages ago I had this model kit too. Not the best kit I ever bought or that was given to me, but also not the worst. I only did some minimal painting, like the machinegun on top and maybe some other parts in gun metal etc.

[@MOS6510Models]

Are sounds like a great build for you matey

[@petermerz2704]

Very nice build Mos! Lots of detail for such a small model! Happy days and model on! 😎

[@MOS6510Models]

[@simonrichards6739]

It’d be great as a diorama set as well.

[@Sam-xq8xh]

Nice video. I can remember seeing the IS3 (the other name it is refered to) at Bovington driving around in 2018. It was the first time one had been on UK soil

[@Sam-xq8xh]

How good is that glue/adhesive? I’ve never used it, always end up using a tube and splogging it everywhere. I will have to invest in some. Thanks, oh and great build!

[@radhasoami8883]

did you get it painted or you painted it dark green

[@MOS6510Models]

I painted it

[@stompieandsuzie]

Vallejo does a spray can of "Russian Green 4BO" which is supposed to be WWII Russian armour colour

[@MOS6510Models]

I’ll have a look at that.. thank you 🙏

[@Emdee5632]

The IS (Iosef Stalin) mk 3 came out late in the war so 4BO is always good.

[@conradchitty7145]

I had to buy own paint but only bought three basic paints cause there costly at fpr 3 humbrol paints £2.50 a small thing I have three sets worth

[@paulinnes4493]
