Love it! I like the improvement of older builds. For me, my projects are never finished, because every time my modeling skill improves or I have access to new materials, I think about old projects and how I could improve them with these new techniques and materials.
Yes and it is so satisfying to get a chance to use your new skills in bringing new life to an old kit or build. Let alone save you money from buying new kits at times. Cheers to you and thanks for dropping by. See you soon.
No doubt about it.....you never fail to impress, ITT. Resurrecting an old kit, using plastic and cardboard to build a house, polystyrene and everyday materials all mixed and matched to create a scene.....always great to see that notification so look forward to the next one.
Hello James. I am glad you like the resurrect builds. Having a measly budget or no budget at all helps me pursue old builds and bring new life to it. Thank you mate. always happy to see you here.
I really like the resurrection builds I find on YT. It takes a certain set of skills to deconstruct an old brittle model and make it something beautiful. As always.. a fantastic build.. er.. rebuild.
Hello Again Michael. Another resurrection build lined up is an Old dusty Panther too. And as always i appreciate you for being around. see you again soon mate.
Hello Fabian. Good Question. As you have noticed, the Title of the Diorama is End of Winter. the time depicts when winter is already over and ice is Thawing. By the late 1944 when at a war's end, the Wehrmacht was effectively down in its last straws in terms of Victories and supplies. By that time uniforms, equipment and war implements were getting scarce so any available supply let alone uniforms were put to use. If you notice the ANORAK camo (with reversible white) is in Autumn Pattern but was generally used in different periods too. So, for lack of supplies, the uniforms by the end of the war was anything goes. Hope this helped.
Hi Steven my friend. Oh yes boss. Very tiny wire cutter indeed. That was all the budget could afford me :) The big ones were my initial "Wishlist" sadly was short on finances. Thanks and see you soon.
@@IvanTheTerrible911 I just may be out of luck. They're old figures that I'm almost certain are painted with Humbrol (enamel?) because that's what I was using as a kid. Thanks a bunch for the response, I'll look into it further.
Hello Declan my Friend. Thank you for kind words. The figures are from the Dragon Tank Riders Set and the ones on the ground with the bicycle are from Tamiya. See you again soon.
Hello Joe. Painted with Both types. Just any two part putty will do. In my case i use severa;l Apoxie Sculpt, tamiya putty and green stuff. Here just a tamiya 2 part putty. Thank you always for sticking by. Cheerios mate.
Hello Master Adam. Thank you for the input. Was over extending my creativity there and got carried away. Great to see you here again. BTW if you are the "Adam Mann" that i know who creates great painting and weathering works i am humbled and honored. Hope we can hook up personally via email, instagram, fb. Cheers.
@@mikethebike2456 Hi Mike my friend. No worries. I am always interested with what valuable and historical inputs you guys have to say. Besides i need them too for improvements and learning. I don't and never will claim i know everything specially topics on everything WW2. Again, i appreciate the comments and inputs if necessary. Hope to see you again sir.
Always quality work uncle Ivan! Glad I found your channel! What is the brand of jewelry you used as this would come in handy, plus my local hobby lobby carries "fancy " jewelry. It's a much cheaper route, vs the trumpeter brand "master tools" chain lengths.
Hello Rick my friend. there is no specific jewelry brand i use. You can use you fancy jewelry from your place too. Anything "reasonably" priced for me is a Go. Thank you mate. Hope to see you soon. Have a good one.

Hi Kev. Thank you for the insight and suggestion. Would you know where i can hear this? YT Studio? Cheers.
Great video, one question why do you use the bycicle driver in summer uniform and the tankraider are in winter uniform?

I know this response is a bit late, but I have some older figures I'd like to re-do. I'm assuming that I could use the same stripper product?
Hello Mate. Anything covered by an acrylic paint and lacquer will be fine. You can use the same stripper. Hope this helped. Cheers.

Was the tank originally painted with acrylic or enamel paint?
What type of putty was used for the zimmerit?
The entire project turned out great. 🏅
