There is no reason for me to promote a bad product, as then I would not enjoy using it, not like the result on my model, and not be proud of publicizing it in a video. There's also no point in me doing this to keep up relations with a company if the only benefit would be getting more of the same products that I didn't like. I have not used every product out there, but from what I have used, I keep using the products I like, and that's why I use them in my videos. You can use whatever other products you would like to and you can feel that they are better - that is your opinion, and is perfectly fine by me, thus I hope that feeling is reciprocated.

    I like how you took the time to explain the process of building the kit, although some might seem obvious or basic at first it is always good to see how you do things :) i am very pleased to see the proper metal file being loved and used so much here - it is so much better of a tool compared to those sanding sponges and what not out there.

    Very neat trick using the extra thin on the exhaust piece...

  • @arthurmarinelli9418
    @arthurmarinelli9418 6 років тому +4

    Some very good techniques, I have actually cut into the ribs located on the exhaust to remove the seam lines. Your use of thin glue to remove the seam lines is much easier.

    The smaller Panzer's are very underrated in my opinion. Everyone wants to build the big ones: Panzer IV, Panther and Tigers. Panzer I, II and III are often neglected a bit.
    I have a Pz. 1 ausf. A Late in 1:72nd scale with full interior. Should be a fun build :-D

      I know I find panzer 3s-1s more enjoyable than tiger tanks and panthers

    • @PanzergrauModels
      @PanzergrauModels 6 років тому

      So I think! During the Polish and French campaign Panzer III and IV were side figures. And pretty much in Africa and USSR too, at the beginning. I have this model and I wait for an available "window" to can start building it.

      Panzer 1 in 1/72 and in full interior? whaaat!?

    • @raymondkisner9240
      @raymondkisner9240 5 років тому

      For one they used the Panzer 1 with the stug to combine a double hit to the French and British infantry. Having rapid machinegun fire with short antipersonal shot at same time broke their infantry lines. The heavy tanks such as Panzer 3 and 4 taking on more bigger targets. The Panzer 2 being used to take out lighter vehicles and small dugout positions which the French were so common that many didn't have any heavy guns or enough ammo to fight very long.

    Nice video. It's extra cool for me because I've seen in real life the suposedly only Panzer I Ausf. A that is left. It fought in the Spanish Civil War. Cool little tank.

    reminds me of a Tiger video, I wish I had time to do these. Very nice. The only critique I can give apart from my tool clamp stuff already is that the standard 2 meter antenna is tapered. However I have also used rod. I don't know that it's discernible at 1/35.

    I'm building the new hobby boss line of panzer 1s just now I have this and the flak panzer with trailer ex tristar this kit has a full interior and engine detail and turret basket detail and hell of alot of PE the detail in this hob y boss to my Dragon kit is just amazing! The detail on the brakes alone in the hobby boss to the dragon kit is alot nicer and thinner detail I used 0.5 rod for the linkages and gear stick and got nice brass barrels for it! I loved my dragon kit but these ex tristar are just 10 time nicer if you haven't tried one yet highly recommend bud!

  • @KEM451
    @KEM451 6 років тому

    I've always had a preference for the smaller tanks. They just have more of a mechanical quality to them, as if they are more farm tractor than killing machine. The early German, Soviet, Italian, Japanese, US and all the others during the 1930s convey that misplaced innocence that you didn't need a 50 ton monster to run over people; rather finer instruments that, though built for war, still retained a gentlemanly quality about them similar to what fighter pilots had at the time.

    im building 6220 the panzer I with 2cm flak 38 now,perfect timing again.The rfm panther is expensive.But it is worth every penny compared to any other manufacturer.If a DML panther A late with metal barrel and no int costs £60 its a no brainer.The revosy is a dragon style ryefield kit,and the panther is more like takom style.I posted my zimm approach in comments and got a pretty good response from one person at least.

      Hey guys :) My mix is about 40% XF-69, 40% XF-2, and 20% XF-18. Roughly.... I used to not use the blue (XF-18) and would instead do a blue filter in the weathering stages.

    One question: do you change your hobby knife blade often? When you used it to clean up parts, it seemed like it required some effort. A new blade would just slice right through those little nubs of plastic. Just curious. 🙂

    HI
    Many thanks for your really helpful tutorials!! I have just got back in to modelling after a long absence. One question: I assume you use acrylics for the base coat on your models, when it comes to your highlight/shadow/modulation/weathering effects you use oils mostly so do you put a clear satin or gloss coat over the base before you use the oils??
