As usual, up to your very high standard and a joy to watch. My only problem is I'm jealous. 😁👍
I intend joining the club - but I have long term covid that has sprung major health issues. Modelling helps with being (literally) constructive and task orientated with results...well, let's say it is early days :) I look forward to seeing more guidance from the 'Master' via UA-cam.
Thanks Everett, I completely understand, I know a few folks who have varying degrees of problems due to long covid sadly. Don't fret, more videos to come, and if you do end up popping along one day we are a friendly bunch and the club is growing rapidly !
Saw this at the tank museum yesterday, it’s definitely going on my to do list, and hopefully I will get as good a finish as you.
James, 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇳🇱👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 top quality!
Thanks Gerry!
Criminally underrated channel!
James just loves his rivets. Very nice, thanks. (I'm with you on the track links - sometimes a rubber band track becomes very desirable.)
Nice job! I watched someone else do a build on a whippet and found that despite it being a basically useless little vehicle it had such an unusual, distinctive appearance that it catches the eye. I've never wanted to build a WWI era vehicle before but after watching and enjoying your build I think I may just have to add one to my collection!
Amazing work.I m a big fan of your ww1 serie.all kits are wonderful.thanks for your videos from France
You did an outstanding job on that tank.
Thanks Tom !
Thank you sir, very nice model. Thanks for including paint color and types.
New to modelling fantastic video this is what I want to do next
Thanks for the comment Craig ! Good luck and I hope you enjoy progressing through the hobby !
It doesn't matter if it flies or crawls on the ground, you make it look great. Yes, please, build another tank whenever you fancy.
Many thanks !
Really nice work. More armour builds? Yes please...
Awesome tank build and great techniques. Give that thread a quick flash with a lighter and coat of watered down PVA before paint. Definitely more armor!
Thanks for the tip T Paul ! I'll use that next time I have to use any string.
I find dental floss ideal.
Love this model! I built it about six months ago and wish I had seen yours first for the excellent tips/techniques used to weather the model. Will go back to mine and give it a bit of extra work. Great build, painting and weathering and commentary full of advice. Some more tanks would be appreciated but keep up the aircraft modelling as well. Thanks, James.
Thanks Robert ! Dont worry I'm not losing the aircraft, I have more planes than tanks in the stash !
Cracker build! Love the way the textures brought the vehicle to life, and your use of oil paints! Would love to see more armour builds!! Thanks for sharing!!!
This is one of the best detailed built model I have ever seen... Great work
Thankyou !
The white and red on the front track plate was so aerial reconnaissance knew the vehicals direction of travle on the battlefield.
The use of white on the front of many vehicles was for two reasons really. Recon ,and to Confuse the enemy of their vehicles direction of travle at night as well.
Never thought to use graphite sticks , and i have them. Nice effect.
Excellent work very inspiring one for the future for me i think . Regards Gav.
Thankyou Gavin !
Wow. Great work and some great tips included.
The finished result is Amazing.
Looks like you could jump in and Drive off..!
It looked that realistic..!
Brilliant work Sir..!
Cheers All. 😎
Really great and "yes" I want to see more of it! :-)
Very impressive. More amour? Yes please.
Can’t get enough of your builds James. Thanks so much
Thanks mate !
I just ordered this kit myself so had a browse of what was about on youtube already, just wanted to say lovely finish on this model well done
Thanks Mr Medic !
Amazing build and subsequent paint job. Well done, you are clearly a master craftsman at creating such a realistic effect. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching !
Great job James 👍 would love to see more builds and reviews.🇨🇦
Thanks Stefan ! Glad your enjoying the vids, there will definitely be more builds 🙂 but my reviews seem slightly more unpopular so I'm not sure on whether to continue with them and just focus 100% on build videos
Truly beautiful, meticulous work. Please post more.
Many thanks !
Fantastic Craftsmanship
Many thanks !
Great paint job. Check out the whippet tank at Bovington tank museum, the crews painted false vision slits on the hull to foil the aim of german snipers and give the crew a better chance of survival.
Nice build I'd love to see more like it. I appreciate the music change. It's a lot easier on the ears
It was a tough choice, but one maybe erring on the more professional
Very good modelling.
Wow ! That's a great build, love the shading, inspirational painting. 👍
Thanks Jonathan
Hi James, outstanding. Would love to see more armour builds. You made it look way to easy, but sadly mine don’t look at all like a working vehicle, yet. Thanks for sharing.
Yes...........please, more armor builds :)
Your wish is my command ! Check back tomorrow 6:30 GMT for the next premier !
Really good. I wonder if anyone has ever thought of doing a WW1 diorama in black and white to look like the old photos.
Thats an awesome idea ! Black and white has been on the radar for a while, it looks really creative .
The idea of a diorama is to take a 2 dimensional black and white image and turn it in to a 3 dimensional coloured image .
Ah YES !!! I have this one in my stash... so I will give it a go while looking your video. Thank you !!!!
I would definitely like to see more armour builds, please. The standard of your painting and weathering is exceptional.
Thanks Bill ! There will be some more in the pipeline
Great build, deffinately like to see more armour, especially if you stick to the more unusual subjects like the whippet, there are thousands of shermans and Germans out there already, so subjects like this really stand out, and look brilliant when finished to such a high standard as yours!!
Thanks Simon ! It's nice to do some subjects that havent had much appreciation. It's always a talking point when you have a slightly different model as well
Yes but there are not a lot of Israeli m51 Super Sherman's, or maybe an ft17 ww1 tank, the grandaddy of tanks
Excellent build. The painting and weathering is fantastic.
Thanks Terry !
Nicely done, I'll take note of anything you build. The detail and explanation are perfect. Thanks.
I look forward to more armor builds. Awesome job.
Excellent build, and yes- more armour please! I've actually built this kit about 5 months ago and have never been 100 percent happy with how it turned out. This video has given me some ideas and inspiration to have another crack at another one.
Thanks RedCoated ! Awesome thankyou ! Good luck with your next one !
Very happy to watch any build you care to do buddy
James this was an amazing build start to finish, great work again my friend😉🤓👍
Thanks Dave ! Glad your enjoying the vids !
Kit looks amazing to build! Stunning oil work. Love your commentary, very articulate. You're definitely up there with the best on you tube, in my opinion. Bravo sir! Always good to mix it up with the genres, more of everything please.
Wow thanks Matt! More of everything coming soon ,!
Awesome build, love the exhaust wrapping, I’ve been after one of these tanks for over a year now but as I get the money together I see a Tiger 1 going cheap and I just have to have it, like giving it a good home, I know sad, have about 11 1/35 tigers five panthers six stug III’S and loads of auxiliary vehicles. I’ve been planning a Tiger 1 convoy diorama for nearly two years now have all the auxiliary vehicles made as well as three of the seven Tigers. Just starting to make some trees for diorama and casting stone blocks for a six foot long wall ( background of diorama ) I’ve over sixty troops to paint up too. So going to be a busy winter. Anyway please keep posting more Armour as your really good at it plus your weathering and colour modulation and your voice over description is brilliant and so easy to understand ( I need things dumend down to the floor for me to take things in 😂😂😂 ) so thanks very much 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 all the very best to you, Kenny 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks a lot Kenny ! It sounds like you have your work cut out, best of luck !
I'd love to see that diorama, it sounds monumental!
Very beautiful work! Please keep them coming
Thanks Ed ! You can count on more builds
Remarquable les détails ont toujours aussi fidèles
Awesome work and a LOT of rivets!
Nice work and brilliant finish on such a neat tank
Another nice build
Makes me wanna do armor! The old WWI tanks were so cool looking. I actually bought the Takom Tadpole as soon as it was announced because it looked so cool. Now I’m gonna have to buy a Whippet.
Awesome love the tadpole. Best of luck !
Well. What can I say. Restarted modelling a couple of years ago after an over thirty year hiatus. My techniques have come on in leaps and bounds, (they were just a tad dated and youtube has been my friend in playing catch up).
I usually concentrate on aircraft but I have two afvs in my 'to do' collection, this one and a Tamiya Crusader. I think I will tackle the Crusader first, it's a lot simpler! Your build is just brilliant and if I can emulate just a fraction of the skill demonstrated here I'll be happy.
Thanks for uploading, much appreciated. Subscribed.
Good build, nice clear video and instructions
Thanks !
Beautiful paintjob!
Another beautifully built WW1 model!
Fabuleux très
belle realisation
Merci beaucoup !
Excellent work. The weathering and textures were well executed. Bravo!
Hi, it's excellent ! If possible, I'd like to watch more scene of building. But it's very nice video. Also I like your calm tone of speaking. Thank you !!!
That's a pretty damn good build...............
Thanks Benny I love ww1 stuff so doing a ww1 tank was great fun. Thankyou !
The most beautiful models

Hi James, well there really on two words to describe your Wippet build, 'Absolutely Fantastic' and yes more armour would be great, but then yoh should build what takes your fancy. Keep safe and well in these crazy times mate, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia.

very nicely done

I love these WWI projects. Awesome build!
Yes please do more armour, this was a great video. Also as I’ve just started this build myself I know a lot of what to expect. I like the way you explain things instead of just “I did this, then I done this, next it was time for this” etc
Excellent build James. Lots of great techniques. Definitely more armour builds. Maybe a panzer?
Thanks Sera ! I have a sort of panzer thingybob in the works !
What a cool model. I'm going to have to buy that one next. Great video too!!
Thanks Tim , it's a top kit, highly reccomended.
@@lpjmodels found out my wife got it for me for Christmas 👍
Amazing, I build it myself and is a kit to love. The tracks are a little fragile indeed, what I did was, when I finished 1 complete track I put Tamiya 3mm tape on the inside of the tracks, it stays more sturdy and tape is not visible after assembling.
Excellent job!
Nice work James, see you Thursday for a jam bud :-)
Roger that Ghost None see you for guitar shenanigans.
Great build, learned a lot. So please do more armour.
I am terrible....straight to the paining!
I dont blame ya. Paints my favorite bit too
This is awesome! Your painting techniques are insane, keep up the good work.
Many thanks !
Beautiful build!
Fantastic, so realistic
Love your work! Keep the armour coming for me.
Thanks David!
really amazing! also very relaxing voice
A really good build and awesome paint job. I've just found you on You Tube so will do some catching up. I noted you saying that the exhaust wrapping became fluffy. You can stop this by using some lightly thinned PVA wood glue and then wet your finger and thumb with the glue before pulling the wrapping chord between them. This puts a thin surface of glue without soaking the chord.
Thanks Allan that's a useful tip I will use it the next time I have this problem !
Brilliant build
Really nicely done! I've got this one in the stash and hopefully it will turn out half as good! Thanks for the build tips- I hadn't even realized some of the parts needed to be bent to shape. Applying some photoetch tricks to plastic! Too cool Meng. I've subed and look forward to more! -Chris
Thanks Chris ! Meng defiant innovated a little bit here, and to good effect.
Great work , thanks for the video!
I think your wrapped exhaust idea is a great one. A possible mitigation to the “fluffy” string problem may be brushing on a thick coat of gloss clear on the string before painting.
Very good job, James!
Thanks a lot !
Отличная работа👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🤝
Спасибо !!
You could have avoided the muffler(exhaust) cord cover fraying by masking or removing them, to avoid them being soaked by the solvents in the many coats of paint that you applied. I would've used more tan than yellow for the high lighting on the top, but, all in all, you got quite impressive results. The results you got on the tracks are great. I also have to mention the results of the dots of paint on all them bolt heads.
By all means, let's see more armour builds. Thanks for sharing this.
Lovely that James.
Mark Andrews
Thanks for the Watch Mark !
please do more armour, this is great !
Awesome build! Liked and subscribed!
Congratulations on first video.
I liked and keep video's coming.
Only if you can do something with light, it is bit dark...maybe to use some light coloured background to avoid shadows.
By the way I subscribe on to your channel.
Masterpiece...
very good model indeed please show more afv
Many thanks, more on the way
This is just amazing!!
2 and a half minutes in and I'm subbed
Thanks Pat I appreciate that a lot !
@@lpjmodels absolutely no problem good sir!
