- this is a full build of Italeri Kit No. 6523 P.Kpfw. I Ausf. B styled in early war camo.
I received this Kit as a gift from my Girlfriend, so consider it a fun build. Yeah I messed up the tracks a little bit but the weathering went fine ; )
I’m 4 years late seeing this video, but absolutely love it. Being a Tanker myself, I love all tanks. Great job, and greetings from Las Vegas, Nv. USA!
Just stumbled upon this one. I am currently working on the exact same kit. It is exactly as you describe it(wish i knew before, because I have left the engine covers and track holders on). Once again, great job done Kai! Thanks for sharing, take care and keep up the good work my friend.
Hey, I've seen yours and will watch it the next days - it is okay to leave the stuff on, it is mentioned in Panzer Tracts - did find the other days. The vent covers are for hot climate (Tropen) the other stuff is just field modified. Given these tanks were build between August 1936 and May 1937, there was a lot of time to alter stuff around.
Very well done!! I enjoyed this and your work. I will try some of this at some point. Looking forward to another build and/or tutorial! I have subscribed!
Thank you. More builds are on the way and they get better, both video and modelling skill alike. Thanks for joining : )
You have done a nice job weathering this little guy! I think you are on to something with the rain streaks. It provided that contrast and dusty effect as well. Built in such a short time too! I will nitpick you on one item and that is the straightness of the tracks. They seem a bit wonky on the idlers and drive sprockets. I just finished the same style of tracks on my Dragon Type-97 and a lot of care is needed to keep these little suckers straight. Nevertheless, I hope you give us more wip videos so you don't disappear for three weeks. I will also try using thinner to pretreat the paint before you apply it. Seems to make a nice surface to move the paint around as needed. Cheers and as always, thanks for the new content! The longer video was great!
Thank you, for next week I'm set up to bring a video on resin printing king tiger tracks - there is plenty to talk about aside from build updates, no worry ; ) You are absolutly right with the tracks, I messed them up completly, countermessures: Thicker glue and better modulization are beeing implemented at this very moment on my bench - I'll take more care in the future. Every Enamel and Oil paint is happy to float around on a moist surface. Just use the good thinner - the ones from AK or Ammo, they just know thier own paint best, I learned this the hard way ; )
What a great 1/35 scale , tank project . The painting and the weathering process is so great and very realistic !🏆🥇👏👏👏👍
Thank you - replaced the tracks today with my printed ones, looks totally different now, much better : )
It's very nice and politely work. I'm looking forward to the next.
Thank you very much for watching, I'll do my best to keep improving the next build.
Lovely result - the dust and rain streaks are very well done. I certainly wasn't expecting single link tracks! I wish they'd have put a set of the old 'rubber band' type in as well - too much messing about with those tiny links can drive me mad! Cheers.
Thanks mate. I'm not a fan of rubber tracks in general. I'll take more care with the next one, shouldn't be magic to them square xD
Great work, another oldie but goldie! Overall finish is incredible, can't wait for the next project!
Thank you very much! Next week, I'll do something different, but a new das werk Panther A is sitting in the spray booth ; )
@@Tankbrusher oh, Panther?! Well that will be a real treat to watch you paint!😊
Got myself stuffed with some new kits: cats, kittens, cats xD It will take at least another three weeks before I release the vids - no unfinished projects - but that one will be a great one ; )
Such a beautiful kit and you have done a magnificent job building it brother
Thank you very much : )
@@Tankbrusher your welcome brother
Impressive weathering, very nicely done!👍
Thank you very much Phil!
Ive just started my first armour model, your videos are inspirational! Have subscribed!
You're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it. What will your first model be?
I think the weathering really works and well done on the p.e guard it fitted perfectly , all the best . Regards Gav.
Thanks gavin : )
Really great work, the video was great and your commentary was excellent to. Really well done. I hope you and your family are all OK.
Thank you Motty. We are all fine, thanks, hope you're doing well too.
Sieht gut aus. Hab jetzt auch wieder mit dem Modellbau begonnen. Nach gut 20 Jahren Pause davon.
Und gut das es so Videos gibt wie deine.
Hi, danke Dir - dann mal wieder viel Spaß im neuen alten Hobby und lad mal was davon hoch wenns fertig ist : )
@@Tankbrusher danke dir. Werd ich machen
Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Recently did the Panzer 1 myself. A great tank to build. Like what you have done with this kit. Great stuff
Hi, I've watched your Bison -> great build! Even more impressive given that it was the ark models kit. Not your fault with the breach, my Grille has the same Sprue and the same problem ; ) Subscribed to you as well and I'm looking forward to yor nex vid.
That makes me feel a lot better. It still bugs me now.🤣😂😎👍
Mate, I know exactly how you feel... I tested resin printing a workable track yesterday for this pz I xD
Any joy? I thought resin printing wouldn't be able to churn out something that small??
@@SteveJonesScaleModellingSite Yes and no. Printer has no issues with this size - making it usefull is the problem. It is back to cad for now.. Am I allowed to contact you over your "about" page as soon as I have some more comprehensiv information?
Good job, let’s build more tanks from Poland campaign
Thanks. I'm still working on a stug from that timeframe, otherwise late war will be up soon ; )
Great job, I like it !
Schönes Video von Dir. Gut vorgeführte einzelne Schritte mit Erläuterung, was will man mehr. Der Panzer I von Italeri in 1/35 sieht von den Teilen her richtig gut aus.
Um einiges besser als sein kleiner Bruder in 1/72. Die Sache mit den ausgedruckten Stencils hat sich auch prima anwenden lassen und macht sich gut, wie dein ganzes Modell überhaupt. Zusammen mit deinen Weathering Effekten ist Dir ein sehr gutes Ergebnis gelungen. Ein schönes Geschenk was Du nun perfektioniert hast.
Bis wieder. Gruß Joachim
Danke Dir Joachim, der Bausatz ist durchaus gut, die ungünstige Auswahl an Nassschiebebilder und die Anleitung sind meine einzigen echten Kritikpunkte an dieser Neuauflage. Deinen kleinen hatte ich mir auch angesehen, da merkt man den Maßstab ganz deutlich verglichen einigen deiner anderen Projekte, bei denen man wirklich zweimal hinsehen muss ; ) Grüße
Sieht sehr gut aus.
Danke schön. Hoffe der nächste gefällt ebenso ; )
Sehr gelungenes Modell und Präsentation, Respekt! Du hast aus dem beinahe schon "antiken" Bausatz was tolles gezaubert. Weiter so :)
Danke Dir, werde mich ranhalten. Wir allerdings kein Bausatz werden kommende Woche. Grüße
Have you built the ex tri start one that new hobby boss line? Honestly if you haven't I really can't recommend it enough! The detail for such a small tank is outstanding I'd love to show you a photo of what I have done with mine! Also in D.A.K configuration! Used African korps dragon figures I painted the panzer 1 ausf A in Dunkelgrau sealed and weathered abitty with enamels just streaking and some rust effects then went over it with my favourite product from AK there worn effects for chipping! Ypu won't find better of more realistic and great to use for white washes and the Gelbbraun over the grey and worn through so the DAK paints worn through to the old grey she's a wee beauty! And used metal barrels for the MGs there nice they stand out alot on this kit compared to when used on other's!
I'm building the Tristar Flakpanzer I atm, together with Dragons 2cm Flak 38. I do like the Tristar kit very much and yet it shows it's age. I personally rate modelkits by the ballance of having a good time assembling it as well as how much time is wasted for example on unnessesary cleanup like mold lines and oversized sprue gates. At least the FlaK component of the Tristar kit does not hold up when compared. The chassis is good, better than Italeri imho. i'd like build a dragon Pz I kit first before I finally settle for a brand. but that's just me ; ) You can add me on scalemates.com btw, I'd love to see your builds!
@Tankbrusher Scale Did Italeri give the CORRECT type of Idler Wheel for their Pz.Kpf. i Ausf B kit? The Idler Wheel of the Ausf B was distinctively DIFFERENTE from the Ausf A Idler Wheel.
TSM-5550 it's based on the Pz38(t) chassis and was a late war prototype. Thought you'd like to try it.
yeah thanks, looks interessting. I'll keep my eyes open for it.
I really gope you will reach 1000 subs.
Pls make Panter A
Hi, thanks for the comments - Takom/Das Werk Panther A with Atak Zimmerit is on my bench atm - should be finished within two weeks...
What you think of Italeri models?
They were fine and fun for me in the beginning. Nowadays I buy much more books and research my builds a lot. I moved on, Italeri I left behind. Pro: small part count, usually fittng together well enough. Con: very old molds / reboxes, soft detail and in many cases unfixable inaccurate. Only speaking of German ww2 stuff...
@@Tankbrusher Cool, thanks for the reply. Sound a bit like the older Tamiya kits.
@@nathanc5778 It kind of depends on what you are looking for. Compare Italeri's Hezter - I think it's thier worst kit the geometry is totaly off. Than look at thier Bergepanther rebox -> it has flaws but is actually a nice looking kit, has PE included and can be finished in a reasonable time - compared to takoms full interior kit (okay that's a totaly different level, I know..). Italeris strength is more in the truck section.
@@Tankbrusher Ok. I mainly build German armour. I like Dragon but I live in Canada and Dragon 1/35th scale kits are absurdly expensive. So I look for other brands and then use upgrade sets. For instance, I just finished Tamiya's 35th scale Tiger I early production. I was able to buy that kit used, and a Voyager full PE/resin upgrade set for less than the Dragon out of the box! Same with a Takom StuG III. Like your videos, and appreciate your input on Italeri (never built one).
@@nathanc5778 You should keep an eye on Takom, Meng and RFM and Bronco than and if you don't mind high part counts Miniart is insanly good! I can fix a lot by printing my own stuff, still, a lot of times it's just not worth the time involved. This is true for Dragons Panthers as well for example. Tamiya is very popular but as soon as you start to upgrade thier stuff, one of newer chinese brands will be more time and cost efficient - even at a higher part count
Where are you from?
