I found your videos are much more clear. You explained everything very well. It was easy to understand all you where doing and why it was being done that way. I spent 20 years as an instructor for the state of florida in the us. For law enforcement. You would have made one of the best instructors. I have just subscribed to your channel. I have just got back into building models again. After 25 years. You are a grat help where I need it. Thank you for your time and knowledge. Please stay safe and happy

[@SergeiMosin]

I'm excited to see more model companies tackling the more obscure armor and vehicles from history. Some really neat stuff has yet to see plastic... *fingers crossed for a proper 1/35 Bob Semple release*

[@lpjmodels]

Haha that would be fantastic ! Copper state just released a canadian armoured car and its got very bob semple vibes.

[@karlb6273]

The attention to detail is just... mindboggling! What a joy to watch!

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Karl, the Copper State kit was awesome highly reccomended !

[@soppdrake]

Very interesting subject beautifully modelled! Steam punk, indeed! Terrific aesthetic

[@marksaxby607]

What a cool subject and, of course, a great build and finish!

[@alainvandenbosch2685]

Beautiful ... Absolutely Beautiful !!! I have already seen almost all of your videos... but I could easily watch them over and over again. Not only your work is superb but also the way you share it on video is very professionnal. Thank you !!!

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks my freind ! Its a lot of hard work to make the videos but worth it in the end !

[@robbo1068]

Amazing work, James....your work is an absolute pleasure to watch and your commentary so full of tips. The attention to detail is great and provides us viewers with lots of ideas to improve our modelling. I will eagerly await your next project!

[@lpjmodels]

Robert, thankyou for the kind words I hope to keep providing useful content for everyone to enjoy !

[@donivanpotter2762]

Love the steps and information given during the video. Thanks for sharing.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Donivan !

[@markfergerson2145]

Steampunk Fledermauswagen indeed! I really like it when some of the more unusual subjects come out in kit form as they're effectively impossible to scratchbuild. Thanks for showing us this one so well executed.

[@lpjmodels]

Thankyou Mark, as soon as I spied this at telford it was an instant purchase, well worth it for the subject matter alone.

[@adrianrichards247]

Great stuff james following the lanchester this one’s on the way to me now .

[@ianjackson7515]

Outstanding build & subject choice. Best from NZ.

MrD53 What a fantastic build and paint work and what a fantastic subject. Great job all round can't wait for the next project.

[@lpjmodels]

Many thanks mate ! Wont be long !

[@LZScaleModeling]

Wonderful interpretation of a singular kit. Well done!!!!!!!

[@personalspace_YouTube]

Beautiful work. Love the weathering.

[@allanrichards6448]

I've just manage to get hold of one of these kits. Its a stunning looking period model. I think I will portray it as a museum piece with worn looking paint but no dirt. This also gives me the opportunity to leave the engine panels off to expose the superb engine detail.

[@allanrichards6448]

I meant to say that your model looks stunning also

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Allan ! That's a cool idea would be great to see when its done

[@billmoore3779]

Totally Awesome build. I just starting this one myself! Thanks for the video!!

[@tonyromano6220]

[@agasp68]

[@worldwarmini3919]

Lovely build! I love the airbrush work! I have to try mutiling on my next build!

[@hethamlica]

Very good Video. Excellent weathering the "Oldschool" way with Oils. Very unique in times of all the ready to use stuff by AK etc. I like that a lot. Keep it up 👍🙂

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks, I like to play with everything I have, and although I love using oils I'm not going to rule out other ready made stuff in the future, however, they dont beat the versatility of a decent oil pallet

[@andygorman858]

Fantastic build, another odd subject that finally gets modelled! I love these more less seen vehicles from the Great War, and you usual building and painting style has done this one justice. Thanks for sharing!

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Andy !

[@Mr_Lindley]

Stunning work again, sir! I've been eyeing up this kit since the Model Shed boys have been bigging it up on their show. Such a cool subject. Inspiring as always, thank you.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Matt, Its funny I was building the kit when listening to the Model Shed and it popped up . Highly recommended.

[@michaela3274]

Nice detail with the handbook / assembly guide

Always relaxing to see......damn still so match to learn for me, you make it look so easy

[@richardklug822]

Was surprised to receive this kit as a Christmas gift. Thanks for showing how it all goes together. CSM have announced kits of Italian and Belgian armored cars for 2020! Hope you can do videos of those as well.

[@lpjmodels]

Richard, Copper state have some interesting kits coming up for sure, I hope to feature one if I get the time !

[@BennyCFD]

Great build.....Concerning the advice from your friends on the mud on the inner hatch..............Who cares as long as you like it.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Benny, theres a bit of a dilemma, I want to make my weathering realistic so i look at references and try to emulate the things i see. Vehicles like this are hard to do as the reference material is overall thin on the ground, lucky Copper State provided a good few in their book.

[@jonnydarke]

Interesting subject, superbly executed. Great content, keep it up.

[@richardsmith6738]

Excellent video and an amazing finish .thanks

[@lpjmodels]

[@terry35ish]

Beautiful build.

[@giorgosgr2]

Great job and your explanation it's super thanks mate for sharing

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks !

[@SmallSoldier]

That's a cool vehicle. I really like WW1 and WW2 armoured cars. I'm waiting for the Meng RR Armoured car to arrive and will hopefully get that build on my channel at some point as well. You've done an outstanding job on this. The weathering is spot on and it has quite an attractive paint scheme. Cheers!

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks mate ! I was looking for the Meng RR but there aren't many about in the uk reasonably priced. Looking forward to seeing you build it .

[@SmallSoldier]

lpj models yeah I’m sure it’ll cost me a pretty penny.

[@dave_jackson3043]

As always James great subject, great video expertly done thank you😉🤓👍

Thanks for watching mate !

[@stefanosv9234]

Amazing job! very well done.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks a lot !

[@TS-lt9tb]

Beautiful! I have this one in my stash and have been wondering whether to build it open or closed - I don't wonder anymore, it's definately going to be open. I must say I really enjoyed watching your video on this; the pace is perfect, easy to follow and the music to match, not disturbing at all. Inspiring.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks TS ! The interior detail is pretty cool, it's missing a few bits but for what you can see it's not too bad ! Engine is nice too

[@realkekec4028]

I'm about to build a 1/35 scale british R-R armored car,and find some useful tips from your video.Thank you and great job done on this model.

[@dtmjax5612]

Excellent job and a great kit. I love the CSM products...I put them right up there with Wingnut Wings in quality and presentation. I have this one and two of the Lanchesters to put together. Looking forward to them. Thanks for the video, and well done sir.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks ! The Lanchester may be on my list if I can get some of my stash cleared !

[@allanrichards6448]

Very good video and a superb build. Like you I really like the shape of this vehicle and will get one.

I got a lot more modeling tips from your full build videos than some other channels, lol

[@lpjmodels]

That's good to hear Carlos, thankyou

[@Black73CatScaleModels]

You've done a cracking job on this! I loved the CSM Lanchester and I have the Romfell to build. The mask templates are a great idea...I hadn't realised that they were in the handbook. Thanks for sharing the build...great video. 👍🏼

[@lpjmodels]

The Lanchester looks really nice, how did it build? The masks were a lifesaver especially with the rivet details and the grille on the front of the car. Thanks a lot !

[@Black73CatScaleModels]

It was really good. No fit issues...no clean up needed. Just a lovely model to build. I did an audio review of the Romfell for our Scale Model Shed Podcast project, if you're interested...scalemodelshed.libsyn.com/audio-review-4-copper-state-models-135th-romfell-panzerwagon Not sure if links work in YT comments. I've been following your builds for a while...keep 'em coming...they're great. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks a lot ! I have been listening to the Shed and it's very entertaining and informative, I know by doing these vids how much work it takes so I appreciate the time you spend doing the casts.. and it's the first podcast I have ever listened to.

[@Black73CatScaleModels]

@@lpjmodels cool....thank you. Oh and sorry...we may have just pushed you into a rabbit hole! Podcasts can be quite addictive. So many of them, covering so many subjects. I don't listen to music anymore...just podcasts! 😳

[@RaduB.]

Interesting vehicle indeed! ...And the presentation of the kit. The end result also! :-)

[@lpjmodels]

Many thanks Radu!

[@argento1111]

I am more of a plane builder, but this model really blew my mind and tempts me to buy it... i got here because i didn't know anything about this brand's kits (Copper State Models) and they have some really nice WW1 planes, that seem to be of very high quality....

FANTASTIC! Congratulations! Beautifully grotesque but always highly attractive. Keep'em comin'.

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks ! They will keep coming dont worry !

[@matthewcaughey8898]

You missed an opportunity to add exhaust staining. Bigger engines of that vintage had no oil filter system and you tended to get quite a bit of oil blow by. That oil blowing out of the exhaust would leave a light black sooting along the side of a vehicle. With a pipe that close the soot pattern would be a fan like spread. Starting about a half a foot back and getting lighter and wider as it moves back

[@lpjmodels]

Good call I didn't think about it to be honest !

Just come to your channel after listening to your excellent interview on Triple P . Great builds and narration James. Keep them coming. Those CSM instructions are on a par with WNW instructions, aren’t they.

[@simonleach6632]

Looks amazing, a credit to youy friend! The more unusual subjects are way more interesting than another tiger or Sherman, and I'm with you on the whole 'steampunk batmobile' thing, sums it up quite nicely I think! 🤣

[@lpjmodels]

Many thanks Simon, although I like the more standard vehicles as well it's usually the more quirky types that catch my eye and interest . They are a lot more fun to build as well.

[@robertbollinger3009]

Well Done Indeed !!!!

[@lpjmodels]

Cheers Robert !

[@hungryhank6044]

Mr. James, that was a verynice kit build. Your paint scheme looks great, I think you should have greased up the rear drive chains a bit with your weathering effects. Just a thought, take care!

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Hank ! That's a good idea I didn't think of that

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Steampunk Batmobile or a Mad Max style vehicle. It could be really dressed up with a different paint job, spikes of the wheels and rolls of barbed wire around it. Mmmmmm ideas....

[@lpjmodels]

Lots of room with this one to make a cool vehicle with some artistic flair !

[@timwhite4301]

My god you are amazing at modelling I whish I was half as good as you

[@jandoerlidoe3412]

Superb - as is all your work; I wonder, would it have been possible to make the doors & engine doors movable - instead of glueing them in fixed positions, so they can be opened & closed at will ?

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks Jan, the size of the hinges might make it tricky but you might be able to make some PE ones? I remember having moving PE hatches on a tristar PZ1 a long time ago

[@ailercon]

Excellent build! I’ll definitely try your mix ratio for the Mission Models Paint. One question though. What is your mixing ratio for the MMP primer?

[@lpjmodels]

Thanks a lot ! My ratio for primer is usually about 70% paint 30% thinner.

[@ailercon]

I will definitely try that. I’ve been using MMP for a couple years now, and I’m still having peeling issues with the primer. Even trying to follow their instructions to the letter. Even bought a new airbrush just for MMP, and I was still having problems.

[@Canned_beef]
