i learned that his shop was down the street from my condo the other day, i walked in earlier today and got to meet Andy and pick up some real supplies no more hobby lobby!
Just wish he would come to new england
HA LOL THATS HALARIOUS
I wish I had a hobby shop within 100 miles of me.
Jackson Holmes lol me too. The only things close to model shops near me are some bookshops with models and some tools and paints...
Luke Skywalker you would think there would be something in Mos Eisley. At least somewhere that could order whatever you need to be shipped in from Coruscant. 🤓😜🤣🤣
The little maus is so cute
Bunny Hop837 its like duck family :v
Matthew Familia gallons per cubic inch
It looks like that little rc thing they actually nuilt
Wouldn’t it technically be Maice?😂
Ye
Lol, camo on a P1000 seems redundant.
I really enjoy your content. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you for watching
I don't know, they used to paint camo on battle ships in WWI
Probably know this already but when you get vehicles that large camo isn't mean to hide the vehicle but rather to throw off the depth perception of the enemy forces, making it harder to hit the target.
Patriarchal Shitlord Dazzle paint, it was called! And if you saw them on the horizon it really broke up the ship's outline!
I think it helps to throw B-29 off its aim.
Any bomber smaller than that won't do much anyway =]
I'm really enjoying these 'What If' Vehicles and think it an awesome topic to approach for Modeling companies, I would love to see you do the Maus V2 Takom (1/35) though
yes i plan to build that soon
Andy's Hobby Headquarters Looking forward to it
TEGC Tom the best part about 'what if' tanks are you don't have to worry about historical accuracy too much
Make a video on creating antennas. I fail everytime.
TEGC Tom
You ever seen that rare image of the German prototype tank called the K-90 Jug head Type 2
This tank concept is fxxking crazy
30 000 my god I remember when there was only 50 and less man this chanel has exploded
Thank you.
Hay man its not us it's all you and your great content
Andy's Hobby Headquarters Hey Andy! I just started doing scale models and they are great fun! I'm very new to this and know very little.. I bought the tamiya acrilic paint and was wondering how much water should I use to mix the paint when I do paint my models. Thanks!
buyable ending, around 1 to 7.
I am in the process of building this same kit and was running into an issue with the look of the tracks not fitting right until I stumbled upon your informative video... thanks it helped me to fix my issue.... great videos!!!!
Man, the RATTE's road wheels are the height of the Maus' hull!
hames tree That's is one of the reasons Albert Speer cancelled the project. It would have been a waste of war materials.
Good advice on how to fix the tracks the right way, was about to give up until I saw this video. Thank you!
Love the camouflage! I might try this on a maus tank 1/56 scale for boltaction game. Thanks!
Yes. The camo pattern looks awesome.
Andy, you have deserved 30,000 subscribers and even more!
Thank you.
Achievement unlocked 🔓
Hello Andy, installing those tracks was still a pain in the butt. I got them installed but I am thinking they should have just used the rubber band style tracks. I had to use a touch of super glue to get the track links to properly adhere to the curves of the wheels.
Aw they had this on the shelf at hobby place at ace here in Tucson last time I was there. I almost bought it, but I decided on a Takom king tiger full interior (lol which I still haven’t finished).
your building and painting technics are awesome that tank looks like it was bought of a shelf in a store that's how good it is
Thank you.
They had a large scale model of it in Bovington Tank Museum when I was there a few years ago.
Love the fact there is a camouflage scheme at all for this! Where would you hide it?!
davie maclean its more of a camo against planes so they aren't easy targets for planes
One day I’ll make it up to Phx and visit your shop. Im stoked I can go visit and supportsomewhere I see on youtube!
Fascinating piece of could have been history. I wonder how they were going to get it to the battlefront at 45 ft wide or across any bridge at 1000T
Thank you for building this kit. and also thank you for always inspiring video of modelling!
There’s a fantastically stupid 1/72 scale version on this tank, it’s a weirdly fun kit to build (aside from the tracks) that dwarfs everything in my collection
another great build mate
The side-by-side comparison with the little maus gives you a pretty good idea how big this monster was or would have been I mean the road wheels alone we're about 4 ft in diameter, Albert Speer cancel the project before it even begun probably thinking no way no how😁
congrats on 30k andy! great videos. i love all of them, theyvreally got me inspired to tackle more complex kits and i have done really well following ur advice. hope to see more on the future!
Actually I really like that paint scheme!!! Thought the grey gave the turret a real naval look but the red oxide is cool too!
that camouflage is so nice....
I was about to go to sleep but then the notification came and I was like " eh what the hell " so very exited that you built this model these are very rare to find like Maus tanks E100 tanks and more this model is very easy and its perfect for starters I wanna built it so bad think I will buy it but concerned about space as always great job and congratulations for 30.000 subs keep it up !
thank you for charing with us Andy!!your new name is Andy's tank factory😁
I cant even imagine someone trying to make a 1/6 scale RC version of this tank. If they do and succeed in doing so you might as well registered licensed and road legal.
The red brown looks much better, you did a great job Andy
I can imagine the RAF having a field day on that thing. Probably wouldn't even need bomb sights lol.
This is just a crazy build, let's get back to WW2, thax from a great follower.
The turret was from the gneisenau wich was a battleship
And the mouse weight 188 tons
Amazing video
I was thinking of the panther and tiger track links you showed in one of your videos and i just couldnt help but imagining the size and weight of those track links it would’ve used
Interesting three tone scheme. Nice work
Thank you , i wanted to do something different for a change
Great video Andy and a great model for sure. That thing is huge and considering it is in 144 scale, it would have been 4 foot long in 1/35th scale!!!!
Great build and painting as always. Have fun Andy,
Joe
Speer was such a party pooper for canceling this deleterious project!
It made sense as the Ratte would've cause more problems than it was worth. I could go on about how useless this thing would've been as a combat vehicle.
It would consume so much fuel, and Germany was in a huge shortage of oil, materials and manpower.
Even if it was built it would be doom from due to ally figther bombers to do something like this you
need air supiriority
Well, these things (p-1k & p-1,5k) were not really tanks. They were self propelled siege guns. If you compare them to railway guns, it's easy to see benefits over something that needs a rail network and days of setup to use.
When a project is even too silly for a proven megalomaniac like Speer, that should tell you something. Germany lost the war due to shortage of steel and fuel without that silly thing, already.
Another excellent video and build as usual, thanks Andy!
Dunno how I missed this one before. Kool subject. It's large enough to have grown some actual trees on it and maybe a garden on the roof.
Well... now you are just one step away from painting some Warhammer 40k supervehicles :-) Nice job, I enjoy watching your videos so much!
Interesting subject. Really would be surprised though for the need to camo it as not like you could REALLY hide it behind some bushes or trees like a typical tank.
I would like to see you paint more Gundam kits.... please do so. ...
Much better the second colour on the turret 👍🏻
Thank you.
Great job on these videos, Andy. Thoroughly enjoy them and learn a LOT of great hints and techniques from you. You make modeling fun and don't make a science fair project out of the detailing. A couple short questions. 1) Where can I get the S & J buffing powder? 2) Can we order stuff from you over the internet? Thanks in advance and keep up the superior work!
Really cool stuff. Good job as usual. I like these "paper panzer" ideas. The only limit is your imagination and your wallet.
wow thats the coolest tank that i ever seen on your channel
Thank you.
These video of futuristic weapons is great...you do a great job of presenting the build and your general experience in model building is really appreciated. The P1000 Rat is a great model but I do not like the scale!! Humbug why not make it in 1/35th, I know it would be big but it would be a great subject! Thanks for all your efforts and work in these videos, you do a great job.
Nice kit. Like to see more on late war German camo patterns.
you should make a long video for beginners going over every step in modeling highlighting dos and donts and just providing tips and insight
Just imagine if it was built, out of commission, and having to restore this thing.
What an awesome 'land ship' this could've been but it would've been an easy target for allied bombers .
great paintwork Andy
Thank you.
Love the camo. Superb job!
that will be crazy
what a huge tank!
I would love this in 1/48
Congrats andy! Keep em kits coming!
Andy, I believe the germans would of painted the turret red, why ? to incite fear and also it is such a huge vehicle it cant' hide anywhere, have you seen the youtube video where it drives behind a 2 story house and all you see is this huge tank sticking out. the rest of the tank could be camoflaged as it could hide to not give the enemy that hasnt seen one before any idea of the length of it.
I love kits with lots of parts
Can you do the Gustav German railway cannon
Waffle Man you mean thomas's Herman cousin XD
This is my new favourite channel! I'm not even a model builder and I love it! Keep up the great videos and I hope you have a great day :)
Andy grew four hands at 30k subs. 6:24 Great job Andy keep making those model kits!
Congrats on the new subscriber numbers! Well deserved. Looking forward to your next builds.
Actually it was a very real project. Blueprints and even a small scale mockup were produced. Authentic images of which can be found online.
A Van Halen song as music background would had been nice with this build video.
😂😂This kit, so big omg.Well done Andy.
can you build some modern swedish armour like the CV 90 or the STRV 122? it would be really awesome to see how you paint and wheatring
much better with turret painted in red at the end.
Love the PE railings interesting kit.
Hey Andy, I was wondering if you could tell me what your next model build is going to be because I would like to purchase it so I can follow your tips and see how close I can get to yours. Keep up the good work, kind regards from Switzerland
I bet such a machine would have been super-battered: something like that isn't likely to be able to go along a normal road, or pass under railway bridges. Although with those silly narrow tracks, one drop of rain and it would just sink under its own weight and enormous ground pressure.
Think I'd be tempted to stick the Maus turrets on the back of the ratte just in front of those flak turrets
as always awesome build.
it would be very interesting to see a video of the dragon 1/35 Maus
Now do a Ratte, 1/72 SCALE
Maharlikan Cartography yes I have seen a 1:72 scale 1 its the size of my dog!
Nice kit. Thanks for the video Andy. That tank might look great with 1/444 Gundams. Oh! Congratulations on 30,000 subs.
I cant wait to get this
awesome model. really enjoy your videos.
You're a great lad Andy, love your vids :)
pretty sure the Muas was 188-200 tons, just saying
Yes you are right I miss spoke .Thanks for watching
Thank you for watching, I'm glad you like them.
Maus*
Real land cruiser.
it's all fun and games until the tread breaks
0:24 Actually the turret was going to be the same one used on the Gneisenau, a German battleship
The Gnesisenau had 3 guns in 1 turret
Ann Davis No, your thinking of the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau’s sister ship which to my knowledge is the only German battleship completed that had 3 gunned turrets
I'll wait for the 1/35 kit. Should be about a foot and a half by two feet.
Nice 👍
Help! I can't stop watching.
I luv your videos but could u add what kind of paints and stuff u used for it in the description plz it would really help me out
May as well just put wheels on the Bismarck..Even the thought of such a machine is simply insane....At a time when there were not enough resources just to build the Tigers
Thats not bad
nice work
good, but you could have made some akcents on some smal parts like the ladder
Andy, Congrats to 30k Subs. Great Build. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you.
I WANT ALL THE WHAT IF KITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi, Andy, I just subscribed, so I'm catching up on some older videos.
Do you happen to know what the approximate dimensions of this vehicle, if it had been made? And, if I were to have been made, it likely wouldn't look exactly like that, as the design would be modified along the way, as well as just the hand built nature of the beast?
I want to make an R.C. 1/35 version of this, but I don't like how far forward the turret is. My "production" Ratte would look a little different than that.
The only holdup to this plan is the realization that a 1/35 Ratte might be larger than my actual car. At any rate, well done, sir, and I'm going to do the math to find out dimensions. It could happen...
Is the P1000 was introduced the Allies would most likely go for the factories that made them or use bombers to take them down 1 by 1 because its a big target
Hi Andy, how are you doing? I have a question. I ordered the modelcollect P1000 Ratte 1/72 scale. Any chance you are doing a video of that model?
Cool to be one of your subscribers, dear Andy!!!!!
love the videos could you build a T-14, Challenger 2, CV90 IFV or the PzH2000?
Id like to hear some backgroundmusik in the time lapse :D
wuld this thing even be able to turn, without digging itself in, with those super long tracks?
Wow!
This is my favorite video by you!
You r sooo cool!!!
I love your channel!!!
