AFV Club M1128 MGS APC build and (super)detail

Hey Everyone!
Its the end of the semester here for me, so I finally was able to get another video out for y'all. This M1128 stryker has been a kit and a half, with a ton of photoetch, as well as some scratchbuilding, testing new texturing products, and much more. This has been my absolute favorite build to date, hopefully you enjoy it as much as I did building it.

I totally understand that my work on youtube is not very consistent, but I do post my progress over on Patreon regularly, so I'd love any support you are willing to give.

Great Job! That must be one of the best builds i seen so far on UA-cam!

[@roadweary5252]

That has to be the most PE I've ever seen on a scale model - and I love it! looking forward to the next video!

[@der_fuxs]

The amount of work that went into all the extra details is just hilarious! Massive probs for the effort you put into that model!

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks! Yeah its definitely the most detailed tank I've done so far!

[@GregReilly135ScaleModels]

Looks like a nice kit will look forward to the painting and weathering

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks! The paint has actually been a really fun project!

[@GS-md1ex]

Great kit! Working with PE is always a pain, and you did really well with it!

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks! It was a pretty fun process, learning to work with photo etch.

[@ScaleMilitaryModels]

Great work so far! I love all the extra detailing! Remember, the anti slip would wear off in real life too, so don’t be afraid to sand parts down. 👍👍😁

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks! yeah Im kinda thinking the same thing...you'll like what's coming next! Ive got a pretty cool idea to cover the extremely damaged sections

[@hillbillymodeling]

Great build, tremendous amount of PE! That was a lot of work. Thanks for sharing, model on my friend!

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks! I had a lot of fun researching and detailing it!

[@samargrewal929]

excited to see the finished model :)

Superglue and bicarb soda is a useful filler

[@bradsmgads1302]

thin tamiya putty in cement and stipple with a hard brush perpendicularly
leaves good texture for anti-slip

[@TheScaleEngineer]

Thanks for the tip!
