- Hey, fine fellow humanoids! In this video, I present "THE ULTIMATE GUIDE" to ROAD WHEELS FOR ARMOUR MODELS. I'll show you a super quick and EASY method for cleaning up all those nasty road wheels that we all encounter on every armour kit we build. This should cut your road wheel production time in half... if not less! Follow the ROAD less travelled as I wheel through the simplest solution I know of for taking care of this age-old problem. Cheers!

It's like Patreon... but simpler. Thanks
Thanks for making me feel like an idiot for spending the first 8 hours of a model cleaning up the road wheels. Seriously, why did I not already think of this before - a great tip from my favorite channel.
Scott Lofye Your welcome!😊😊 Yes it’s the quickest way to get the job done, I hate cleaning road wheels. Thanks man! I wish more people thought like you.😉
🤣🤦🏻♂️
I like these little videos...I imagine the effort is same as for longer piece, but I enjoy them a lot
Thanks for the input, John. I'll continue the series for sure. And yes the process is just as involved there are just fewer files to comb through. I take a lot of care to craft these videos for quality content and production and it's a pleasure when I see others notice. Cheers my friend!
Excellent Scott! Keep them coming, please.
Thank you, sir... I certainly will. Cheers!
Lol, right on.....well done.
Love the jokes and the SCTV....bits thrown in there.....ya hoser!!!
Lol....rock on
Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks, Don. I'm glad to have another hoser and fellow Canuck along for the ride. SCTV was the best! "Koo Roo Koo Koo, Koo Roo Koo Koo" "Koo Roo Koo Koo, Koo Roo Koo Koo"
That was a great video - really enjoyed it, thanks. Subbed! Cheers.
Thanks so much Andrew. Welcome aboard the crazy train! 😁👊🏻👊🏻
great advice
Great trick! I've just started modelling myself and would love more of these kinds of videos! :)
Ahhh, it's never too late to start. Welcome and stay tuned as I have many more videos like this in short and long-form planned. Cheers!
Hi!
You vids helped me a lot..
Tanks.
Your very welcome.👊🏻😁
Interesting tip! Will definitely try it.
Thanks, sir!
Great Video!
Thank you sir!👊👊
Great stuff as usual! Almost makes my want to do a tank. To the stash Batman!
Ahhh, come on... you know you want to. :)
There were quite a few jokes in this one... and a couple I made up myself... putting it on the shaft. ;)
Just FYI; some Sherman tyres do have a centre line - there's a few good walkaround photosets online of the M51 at the Yad La-Shiryon armour museum that shows these quite clearly, and also that the spares which are 'nearly new', have almost a 'grid' pattern of manufacturing lines. Quite how you'd model this in 1/35 I don't know, and once scaled down I think they'd be all but invisible, but they are there.
Still, great vid and an easy technique to learn. Thanks for sharing.
Your welcome! Thanks for watching my friend! Yes, I have seen these seams present on Shermans and you could leave them there in some cases. The problem is if a judge at a model show sees it he's more than likely to mark it down as bad prep... unless he's a well-educated fellow.
Neat tip....massive time saver
Yep. I did the rest of them in an hour last night.
So dang smart!
Well you know I am! How do you think you got that way?😀♥
Cool tip!
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome tip, doing the wheels is the part I hate. Going to try this on my upcoming Panther Build, thanks👍
Cool! You'll want to considering how many bloody wheels there are. LOL!
@@SmallSoldier Yeah, otherwise it would wheely take forever.
I'll get my coat...
I don´t know why, but for me such repetitive and boring tasks are a bit like a catharsis, so i kinda enjoy doing that. But i see that working around that with such fancy tricks has its purpose. Clever solution!
Thanks, man! It all comes down to how much time do we have as creators to spend on things that could be sped up by something faster and more efficient. IMO anyway.
Hi Scott mate, you know the amount of times I've been there with the seam lines, but if you look at references etc I noticed that a lot of road wheels had seam lines on their wheels I couldn't believe. All that bloody time sanding and scraping. I got myself a Dremel but it's actually a wilko one which wilko is a shop over here that sells tools, garden bits a lot like, I think wallmart is it, over there by you guys. It is great but I must admit, when I had all my last stash and tools etc I had a proper Dremel and they are truly a fantastic tool. I may have to get myself one again in the future. Hope you and your family are well buddy
Thanks man! Yes some do have that line but any rubber wheels on a vehicle that has seen a decent amount of service has that line worn off. look at reference pics on google and you'll see these examples.
Damm I could save so much time if I knew that :) thanks for idea!
I did the rest of those road wheels in an hour last night. It really is a time saver. Cheers!
Genius!
Tell that to my wife! 👊👊😄😀
I can attest to roadwheels having pieces and chunks out of them,also track pads. After serving on tracked vehicle's, they arent the funnest things to replace!
Yep... pretty much anything rubber will take a pounding.
Almost every AFV with rubber wheels have that seam... even modern ones
Yep, true. But if that vehicle has been in service for some time those lines disappear quite quickly.
@@SmallSoldier not entirely true... the seam is through and tbrough. Also, the seam is harder then the surrounding material and is pressed in before it wears down.
@@bjorngroen What is the purpose of the "seem"?
@@ukdave57 it's just a moldline from the rubber, where the two halfs meet...
@@bjorngroen I am aware of it being a mould line. I misunderstood your description about being harder and is pressed in before it wears down. Having read it again I realise what you are describing. Another senior moment strikes LOL. :)
