Thank you! It’s taken me years to get to this level, and even that isn’t the best! But I’m pretty happy with where I’m at, I didn’t put a protective coat on, just went straight over the paint, then use a clear coat, as I find it dulls the panel line down and make it look less bold? If that makes sense?

@@135scalefail Perfect sense! Thanks for the reply.

@ScotterzModelz no worries! This channel isn’t about showboating my skills, it’s about learning and helping other modellers achieve something they’re proud of!

😂 he fell out….i had every intention to put a driver and a few figures on with it, but I wasn’t feeling the kits originals, and eBay let me down! But it was still a fun and excellent kit! Thanks for the feed back!

Cheers dude! Appreciate it, and yeah sure, I just used some clear 3D printing resin and let it pool in like a round dome shape before I cured it with my uv touch and broke it up to make it look like clear glass broken? Hope that’s helpful?

Cheers! I was actually wondering about the thinner stuff you flow into the wheels before the pigments!! Good tip on the clear printing resin though, I have some of that and now have another use for it!!!

This hobby is already expensive enough! Gotta find a use for everything haha! And the thinner is just standard enamel thinner, think it’s the humbol one? Makes the pigment stick a bit better? But can still brush away any excess?

​@@135scalefailawesome, thanks, I get my first pigments tomorrow and have enamel thinner, I'll give it a go!!!

Hey mate, thank you so much, and all I did to make the flag, was cut up a square/rectangle piece of tissue (not toilet roll) tissue you get from the little packs? And just used a pencil to draw it out and painted it with some thinned down tamiya paint, then Jobs a gooden! Hope that’s helpful?

Thanks Alan! It’s a pretty decent quick little kit! Should be posting more soon, problem is my studio is my garage and in the winter months, it’s rather cold! 😂 but will soon pick back up

Hey Craig, i used a cut up piece of tissue, not toilet roll, find that’s too brittle, the type you find in the pocket packs of tissue, mixed in with some pva and water and you have a nice tarp/canvas

@@135scalefail ok cool thanks, i assume the same material for the turret (base of the barrel).

Yeah that’s right I’m going to assume your building something similar?

@@135scalefail yeah i got the Mk5 a few days ago, i'm wanting to paint it black and green, but i'm not too keen on nato black, i'm also considering adding some cam net to the side bins on the turret.

Hello again, do you have any ideas to help me with making front mudflaps for the Mk5

Thanks man, really appreciate that, been away for a while now, but I’ll be putting a new vid up really soon! ✌🏼

Hey Craig, thanks for the compliment, and for the chipping I used AK heavy chipping fluid in the airbrush, just spray it on let it dry, paint your top coat and use warm water with a stiff brush to take it off, and the stowage bins I used a tealight candle and softened the plastic and used the butt end of a paint brush to add a dent. Hope that’s helpful?

@@135scalefail Hey dont mention it, I really enjoyed the video it was very educational i'm pretty much new to detailed modelling, i've almost finished a T-34/76 and my first attempt at detailing... weathering, chipping etc. My next challenge is the Mk 5 and i'd like to dedicate the Mk 5 build to my old Sgt and my father who both served during the tanks service.

Thanks man appreciate it! Sometimes I feel like you can get to into faces and end up scrapping the whole thing, so I find if you hold it out far enough and squint if it looks alright then it probably is? Haha, but you have to keep it simple to much and you loose interest

@@135scalefail - great advice!

Dude you are welcome, and thank you for reaching out! Means a lot! I’m not the best! But aslong as we have fun! That’s the main thing! ✌🏼

Oh wow! Thanks for the story! That’s amazing! So it was quite common for those things to go flying off everywhere? Haha sorry about the drivers back though! But thanks for that little story

Thanks Neil really appreciate it, and I know! I wish I just used the tamiya stock figure 😔 but I decided not to ugh! 😂 yeah that would of been funny I’ll bare all this in mind on the next one thanks man

Hhahaha! I know I know I wish I did just use the old out of scale whacky tamiya one nevermind let’s just say someone left the hand break off? 😂

@@135scalefail 👍

Thanks dude really appreciate that! And ugh tell me about it! I wasn’t feeling the clunky derp tamiya figure that came with the kit, so I left it out! Otherwise I’d totally have a figure or two

Ahah thanks dude! First time working with lights, so I think it turned out quite good?

@@135scalefail It turned out amazing!

Thank you my friend! Here’s to the next 500 and many many more videos 👍🏻☺️

Thank you so much! Really appreciate the kind words, was a pain trying to super glue the fence wire! Always gotta trust the process thanks again. 👍🏻

Why thank you sir! Much appreciated ☺️

Thank you sir 👍🏻 had fun doing it, wanted to do something different but the next one should be good!

Thank you very much! Was nervous at first to see if it would actually work! And it paid off in the end I think haha

Thanks man! Never done anything like it before, so it was great when it worked out in the end haha

Good morning modelcomrade haha, thank you so much…you never know, it might be happening 😜 haha

Thanks man, hope you enjoyed the watch? I’m still learning but I appreciate the kind words

Thanks Gary! Really appreciate the kind words, yeah definitely a learning curve! Need to slow down and take my time! Just didn’t want the video to go on to long and bore people? But will definitely post another video, hopefully without the blur and fuzzyness haha

Thanks a lot 👍🏻 not sure about talented? But appreciate the kind words

Thanks vince! Dioramas coming soon

Thanks a lot mark! Really appreciate that! Well…between you and me…there’s something in the pipe line

Oh really? That’s great to know! Not used to showing people new things, so I’m glad what I’m doing is helping?

Thank you so much! 👍🏻

Cheers dude! Really appreciate it 👍🏻

Cheers Declan! Really appreciate that! Defo will 👍🏻 I’ve got a stash for years over here, just don’t tell the mrs 😂

@1/35ScaleFail I know what your saying I'm the same what can you do

I know she don't know about my stash of unboxed models, and she thinks I don't know about her stash of shoes. D..

Hahah! I know the feeling! Atleast I hide mine, the mrs is obsessed with Plants and most weeks I find a new one in a room somewhere!

😂 haha! I took a chance and it paid off! That damn glue was strong 💪🏻 lost a bit, but was probably for the best as it was way to thick! Sometimes things just work out? Haha hope you enjoyed the vid 👍🏻

Woah a masterpiece!? You flatter me sir! Haha thanks dude! Really appreciate the kind words!

Ahh thank you so much man! You’re too kind! Defo need to work on my camera skills 😂

Thank you 👍🏻 mediocre at best haha

@@135scalefail Better than me.

It’s all about what you take from it, my biggest thing was comparing my models to other peoples, and there’s so many better painters and modellers out there, I’m happy at the level I’m at, and I’m here to show people that it’s okay to mess things up or doing the wrong thing? At the end of the day there’s no right or wrong way of doing it, aslong as you’re happy and had fun! Hope this channel gives you the confidence you need!

@@135scalefail I enjoy building and painting, but the way I like. I like to joke with some of my builds. I have a Tiger painted metallic red, with a decal of the Virgin de Guadalupe on the side. I am going to chrome the wheels or make spinners for the wheels.

Hahha that sounds amazing! I’d love to see it? I’m not one for historical accuracy but I make sure whatever I’m building it would be in the era? If that makes sense?

Ah nice thanks Jurgen! Means a lot and nice!! I thought this was my best option and laborious is an understatement 😂 my neck after was throbbing! And thanks again! My next upload is abit different to a tank…and that’s all I’m saying! Haha

Thank you man, really appreciate it ☺️

Thank you phil, really appreciate the kind words! The grass gave me neck ache for a week! 😂 totally worth it though!
