- Hey guys!
A little bit of a longer video today, sorry its a little rushed. This beast took absolutely FOREVER to finish, so I hope you won't be dissapointed!

I have a tip for soldering for you sir. Use a small mallet to flatten your core. Cut the solder with a exacto blade into 1-2mm pieces and set them in place and use a butane torch to melt the solder in. It wont blob and you wont have to worry about any other solder issues.
Thanks for the tip, I really appreciate that, because you can se I did not have the best experience with the stuff
@@ScaleStudioModeling exactly why I gave you the tip. Pe fenders although easy to cut out and bend are a royal pain in the butt to solder.
Very nice how you tackled the PE and improved so many details on the stug-kit!!! I think with the primer on, it'll look fantastic!!!
I agree with that! Thank you! Most of the kit actually come in Tamiya's enhanced with Aber line. I have another tank from that line coming, but I don't think that I'll follow the same schedule with it. The only reason that this kit is so amazing is that this incredible kit was on sale from $95 to $35, which I absolutely could not pass up!
Very nice video. I enjoy videos that show detailing techniques in addition to assembly/paint/weather! Keep up the good work.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it, stay tuned!
Great work on the AM work. Looking forward to seeing it painted up
You and me both!
thank you!
It's fine detailing as always.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey bud I found your channel thru Panzermiester. Great stuff. I just purchased the same kit on sale with the extra PE so am looking forward to the series. It’s gonna be my first experience with PE so super on time.
Thanks, glad you like my work. I would not reccomend getting the voyager fenders. Just adds a lot of complexity.
Awesome job!
Middle band on hack blocks normally the strap, so Aber are correct on a way there normally really good products is there not a strap and buckle with the set for the middle? The straps normally moulded on the jack block itself so maybe why only gave 2 side riveted banding! I'm using them MJ miniature 3D Printed panzer clamps just now, hell of a lot easier than my workable I have 2 sets one for the panther's and tigers and one for the panzers they have printed open clamps so very nice! Definitely different!
That's interesting! Yeah the PE only came with the two side bands. it is, however, included in a model that I have coming up!
Sheeet impresive 😮
Nice work! Love it!
Thanks!
Very nice work. Just ordered my own kit.
Have fun!
nice detaling!
Thanks!
Dude I have the exact same model in the box. I saw this video and was like thank god someone has a video on it. I’m just starting out with model tanks. Do you have any hints on what a new modeler should have in their inventory to help build them? Thanks for the video. 👍🏻👍🏻
Randy Rohring, with all the photo etch in this kit, make sure you have. A good set of tweezers, either black or clear superglue, and definitely polystyrene-friendly debonder, so you can clean up any news you make with the ca. Make sure you have Tamiya extra thin, or Mr. cement for all those tiny parts. Defintely have sanding sticks for reworking kit parts, good sharp-side cutters, and a fresh exacting knife. Depending on how far you go with it, also get Tamiya putty for filling seams and armor texture, and Tamiya two part epoxy for welds and large repairs. Make sure to take your time! Multiple gauges of wire for the lights and other details is also super helpful. For the antenna, make sure to get either thin music wire (just look it up, you’ll see what I mean) or learn to stretch sprue. Good luck! Also, would not recommend the photo etch fenders, they are super complex for panzer iii’s and pretty challenging to put together.
I just picked one of these kits up and am slightly surprised by the amount of PE parts for it. As a 40k modeller I wasn't quite aware of what I just jumped into lol. I'm looking forward to the challenge though
Good luck! Debonder, black superglue, and a fine pair of tweezers are your friend!
@@ScaleStudioModeling black superglue? I'm assuming it's colored black to see where it's been applied?
@@batingbunnies Exactly. VMS makes a bottle of it and it works pretty well
Hi, Thank you for sharing, I've learned a lot from your work. Which brand of debonder are you using , please ?
Hi Ron, I use petr dousek polystyrene friendly debonder I had to order it from Poland, so it can take a while to get here
@@ScaleStudioModeling thanks !
Amazingly done. My sausage fingers would make a dog's breakfast out of all that.
Haha! Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Great work👍 Tamiya epoxy putty is okay green stuff is better not sticky like tamyia
Thanks for the tip, I have heard it can leave a slight;y grainy texture, and so I'm not sure how it'll roll out.
I seen you used gray tamiya putty, will white work as well for texture? Thanks.
I imagine so. I have only used grey, but I have seen examples of people using white as well.
@@ScaleStudioModeling Thanks for the reply!
Sure thing Mike
Hey can I ask what's your set up with the super glue, after all this time im still not happy with my own CA glue system.
Absolutely! Currently I use gorilla gel superglue for pretty much everything, I’ve tried basically everything else, but gel is easy to apply precisely, and dries fairly slowly. It also reduces mess and the need to clean up with debonder, which I barely even use any more
@@ScaleStudioModeling ty
What ca debonder you use?
Currently I use vms, but it’s not quite what I’m looking for personally, but some people really like it
Your getting ripped off for payingv15bucks for tamiya extra thin, nice work though
Thanks! I can actually get it for $5, $3 if I’m smart!
