I'll console myself thinking of the time somebody wasted setting up a manual claim on a 40 second clip of a public domain classical music performance in a video which has fewer than 100 views.)

Can’t go wrong with Tamiya. Their kits are so well engineered. I have the 1/48 kit. You are right about the shells. I wish Tamiya had made them separate. The way they are makes proper painting impossible. Thank you for the enjoyable video.

I've got this kit in my stash and have recently completed a Cromwell from Tamiya and the Firefly Vc from Dragon. I now use Mr Surfacer primer as this gives a better adhesion and surface etc in my opinion and use late war British colours from the AK RealColor set which I have to say is better than anything Tamiya have currently. I'm really looking forward to building the Achilles and the only thing I will change are the tracks to a set of the metal cuff type from Fruil . I've got some British tankies Hornet heads I purchased a while back so will probably use them with the figures. Hopefully Tamiya will release new allied kits in the future. Look forward to your new videos.

Thanks Jurgen. I completely agree with you about the AK Real Colors - they're very nice paints indeed and I do feel like they're much better matches than the Tamiya colours in many cases.

Straight forward build, but my GOSH what a great painting video! A little bit of paint can make the detail POP and the model really stands out! I learned some new techniques that i can use on non military models too! My model railroad is going to get a makeover!

It really is. I'm planning to go back to this and make a couple of improvements (e.g. a nice matt varnish at least, and some more weathering), when I build one of the DioDump building kits I have.

Nice but I would have left the panel liner till the end, those vehicles where really greasy and stained with rain mud and blood, when hosed down always collected around bolts handles rivets etc.
@ModelNerd
@ModelNerd 4 жыл бұрын
Well I guess the panel liner is only to simulate shadow - I'll add mud and dust etc later if I decide to add it to a diorama.

@@ModelNerd yeah, I guess it's how you use the panel liner, you use it very sparingly, where as I use it library at the end to make everything pop! Each to his own, my objective is to make it look as realistic as possible. Have you seen a modeller on utube called "plasmo" very young guy but so talented his models are highly detailed, worth a look if you haven't seen him before, anyway keep on modeling, I can't wait to see your diorama
@ModelNerd
@ModelNerd 4 жыл бұрын
@@TheGuitarmanrh Yeah, I've seen Plasmo - great models. I think one of the difficult things in modelling is realising that sometimes paint, weathering, etc can look absolutely awful and overdone when you first put it on, but then it gets toned down significantly when dry and when further layers are added. I'm still at the stage where I'm a bit overcautious and the weathering often gets lost by the end as a result.

@@ModelNerd yep that's the beauty of a gloss coat and oil paints, you can always take the paint off even after a few days with thinners. Yep we all hate to mess up our lovely paint job, just when we've got it looking like it just rolled out of the factory, but WW2 was a really dirty and bloody mess and it's very hard to capture that atmosphere in scale modelling, IMHO there should be many more burnt out vehicles, dead soldiers and civilians, half buried in rubble etc. I know it sounds gruesome, but this was the reality, sometimes you could not see the ground for the blood, I would like to see someone try a tank being destroyed by an aircraft diorama, maybe a typhoon hitting a panther or king tiger with rockets, that would be a challenge.

Hi mate, can you tell me whare you found the placement for the stens n whathave you on turret walls inside? I'm building the Afv club one it's it's nightmare to find anything on interior detail and the only one on KZbin is IDF modded so don't know what's what of them ready AMMO racks on the left were added post war or original and the fire extinguisher is sitting upwards to what ours are so annoying haha! My friend just put all his reference books all 80Gb on a memory stick for me all the Ospry books etc there's about 100 reference books so finding an Achillies may take some time lol

Hi Charlie. If I remember correctly I used the placements in the instructions. If you look on Scalemates, maybe they have the instructions for the Tamiya version and you could use that for yours?

Good build but why leave the seams on the breech and on theturret where it joins together. Health of tar comes to mind.
