Good to have you back. Nice build mine is the Piececool version as I was watching ,the instruction and parts were just about exactly the same. As for the reply about architecture models I would say any of the Asian Temples from Piececool will be pretty challenging. Keep up the builds
Oh god. The Yamato. Hands down the hardest model I’ve built. And I did some of the Microworld Zoid models. Those are wild. But yeah, 78 tiny little guns on Yamato. I had to get her though to go with my Missouri. My Yamato has a very distinctive bit of damage from building. I accidentally snapped off part of the housing for one of the main guns and lost it. So there’s a big hole in one of the turrets. I feel like I also broke something on the superstructure. She was a pain.
Was thinking to build something like this for the challenge, but I am not a big fan of military models or ships, more of an architecture guy. What do you think is the most challenging bigger architecture model?
That's a great question, I agree with Jedicatmaster that the Temples from Piececool are great. They are comparable with the amount of parts and interesting detail. If you are looking for Metal Earth models only I would point you to the Iconx Notre Dame and Salt Lake City Temple. Both have some detail that will have you busy for hours :) I hope you enjoyed the build and thanks for the comment
@@GrooveBuilders thats smart I always I assumed it was so you didnt smudge the metal with hand oil. infact I started doing it after watching yours vids because i dindt like how the metal looks when its smudged
Thanks, I really enjoy the bigger ship builds too, I need to grab another one. The main reason why I wear gloves is to make the video flow better. I film these over a few days and in that time any number of things can happen to my hands. So to make it look like one big sit down I wear gloves to hide the larceny of takes :)
Those are called Mandrills. Lots of different kinds out there. I recommend Beadsmith Budget 2 Piece Mandrel Set Wire Looping Tool 10 Different Diameters From Amazon. They have handles on them and lots of sizes to choose from. Hope this helps :)
about 8.5 but at the most 10 hrs. if you have the right tools you can get it done in good time. Just don't rush it... once it's done it's done. thanks for watching!
hey brah, I understand you were involved in a hit and run.. but, theres only pone O in the name Yamato, so its not pronounced Yamoto. Amazing build though.

Good work. I'm building the Missouri now to prep for the Yamato. Curious as to why you wear gloves?

YA-MOTO :D
It never occurred to me as a child to use tweezers... let's just say my flimsy battleship sunk without a fight :(
Yuh-maa-tow not yuh-mow-doe
you put piece 22 in the wrong way.
thanks!

Haha I was making fun of the old World of Warships promos ;) Sometimes my jokes fall flat.
Thanks for the compliment. I need to do another battleship!
