SCHWIMMWAGEN 166 - EPIC FULL BUILD OF TAMIYA 35224

Today I present classic Tamiya Schwimmwagen type 166 kit (35224) in dark yellow/worn winter camo. This kit is build with Def Model resin wheels, some minor upgrades from Trex and figures from Mantis Miniatures and Alternity Miniatures.
If you are looking for step by step (tutorial) episode showing all stages of work, this one is what you need! This is epic full build of this Tamiya classic model.
I used VMS products mainly so you can check how easy is to use them!

I got this model for Christmas and will build it soon. This, my friend, was pure gold! Mine won’t look nothing like yours of course, but if it’s even close I’ll be very happy. More of these ‘old’ kit builds please! Very inspirational 😊

[@coldemonspl]

Many thx mate! Good luck with it! :)

[@sjoerdtollenaar4089]

It looks awesome. What i thought was funny is glueing the window with special glue. Only to cover it in the next scene with a tarp made out of putty. 😂

[@coldemonspl]

Thx. Well, I wanted to show the use of the glue :)

[@DouglasFrame-s3u]

It’s called product placement 😊

[@elimhousesteve]

I’m sure many of us struggle with figuring painting so is there any chance of a video of how you paint your figures .

[@KGmodels]

Looks amazing,the weathering is incredible,and the uniform on the figures is painted great.I wasn’t expecting a wheeled vehicle,but I am pleasantly suprised!Thanks a lot ;)

[@coldemonspl]

Thank you very much buddy! :)

[@tilomommert8212]

Looks good mate👌

[@coldemonspl]

Thx a lot mate! :)

[@scaleffect]

Incredible work as usual. I really like the contrasting uniforms you chose, it adds a lot of interest to this whole piece and draws the eyes in closer to see all the other work like the exceptional weathering. Thanks for sharing your hard work as always.

[@coldemonspl]

Thank you very much buddy! :)

[@ronaldbyrne3320]

Amazed by your brushwork. 😍 That’s a pretty little model of my favourite WWII German vehicle.

[@coldemonspl]

Thank you very much buddy! :)

[@modellersworldtv]

It is sooo old kit that I was thinking that is not possible to make good model. But again, You not disappoint.

[@coldemonspl]

Thank you very much buddy! :)

[@davidkellett5958]

There’s nothing wrong with this kit as it’s a 1990’s Tamiya kit. Still the best one available. The early kit is dreadful as it’s from early 1970’s so perhaps @modellersworldtv is referring to this in their post?

[@coldemonspl]

@@davidkellett5958 i dont know :)

[@modellersworldtv]

Oh Yes, I was thinking it is old 70s kit 😅

Amazing work my friend. Again a gold class for me. Perfect i have buy the Waffen SS MG42 Gunner - Steyr from Darius Miniatures and i think he will lock great in a copy from your Schwimmwagen. Thx for sharing

Thank you very much! :)

[@manningjackson2723]

Excellent work! And I love the background music too 👍🇦🇺👍

[@coldemonspl]

[@garylawless3608]

Fantastic result Lukasz! I recently built a Schwimmwagon by Italeri (sic) which I thought turned out OK, but after watching your magic on this model, I think I will have to resurrect it and try to improve the look of my own attempt. Looking forward to seeing this one in a diorama. Excellent build and weathering video as usual my friend. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺!

[@coldemonspl]

Many thx my friend. Italeri is not as good as this Tamiya kit and needs much more work. Good luck! :)

Like what you have done with this little build. Well balanced weathering and dirt work. 💥👍💥

[@coldemonspl]

Thank you very much buddy! :)

[@allanrichards3752]

I think with these small models like this, the Kubelwagon and the US Jeep it is necessary to add something to increase the content of the model otherwise there is little to look at. A small diorama with these is a really good way of doing this.

[@coldemonspl]

Your're right! :) Thx for your comment! :)

[@alj644]

As always fantastic job 👌...but be careful with the runes...youtube deleted my vid of my schwimmwagen because of those runes 😕😕... Keep on going Lukas 😉👍

Tread patterns of this style are often turned backwards on the front wheels to give better breaking

It's not the old Tamiya kit... This is late 90's...still probably the best mainstream one available

This is NOT a classic old Tamiya kit. That would be the 1970 classic Tamiya kit. Too many young pups around here

[@coldemonspl]

Well, this is the classic tamiya kit. We live in 2024 and curren standards are a bit higher than in 1970 :)
