    Great build! I've been adding modeling clay inside the hulls of my builds to add weight. It makes the models feel more solid and also keeps them in place better if mounted on dioramas at an angle.

    Thank you for making this video! I've got my own M51 in the works, and didn't really know how I wanted to paint and design it. But after watching this, I know what I'm going for.
    Thank you once again!

    Sweet! I've seen this kit at my local hobby shop and I'll have to pick it up if it's still there on Tuesday. The mix of desert yellow and buff is a perfect desert color. As always your model looks fantastic and thank you much for sharing!

    Andy, you got me back into models. I never painted models as a kid. I built this model but do not have an air-brush. I guess I spray paint it black. then desert yellow then hand paint things. I do not know how the painting process could be simplified?

    • @AndysHobbyHeadquarters

    @Robert8455 7 років тому +2

    I've watched several of your videos. It's really amazing what can be done with plastic, glue, paint and some crafty skills. The quality of your end result is just top notch. I enjoyed the classical music and you have also done a great job filming and adding commentary when necessary. I built lot of models when I was young, then would blow them up with fire crackers or something crazy like that. Too bad you don't have a website to sell your kits on line, I'd certainly support you.

    OMG... I instantly love the M51 Super Sherman. In my favourite tank game, WoT, it's closest analogue is the M4A1 Revalorise, which has a 105mm gun but painted in french colours.

    • @famoterlhh4993
      @famoterlhh4993 7 років тому

      If I was to build the exact same model, I would paint it in french blue colours.

    Hi Andy, I would just like to say that you have done a great job of the M51. I have got this kit in my stash to FINISH but have had a problem with it, I dropped the muzzle brake on the floor and promptly stood on it. I ordered a up-date set for the M51 but was not happy with the size of the M/B it seemed a little on the small side, but seeing your build I must get it out and finish the project. I will also subscribe to your site.
    Happy Modelling from Australia,
    Les

    Great work.....but if you could slow down a little when switching paint, that'd be helpful.On this Sherman, near the end you switch to xf ? 5, for shadowing maybe.Do you do figures? tank crew? Would like to see how you do that.

    I love and learn so much from your videos. Quick question on the painting. You showed both Buff and Desert Sand. Do you use one separately as a base and then the other as a lighter tone or do you make a mixture of the two?
    Thanks in advance.

    • @alexthibodeau979
      @alexthibodeau979 2 роки тому

      A little bit of a late reply, but I think they are mixed. I recently painted up a desert vehicle with Vallejo colors similar to Andy's colors here, and it turned out very similar.
