- Hi folks and welcome to my latest Full Build Video, the Takom Pz.kpfw.Ia in 1/16 scale.
I hope you guys enjoy the video, I refined my weathering and hairspray chipping a lot during the process, trying some new things and taking a few risks ( why play it safe? ) and I hope you find the quality of the work up to my usual standard.
In fact I'm working hard on eradicating some of the problems I face filming with a phone, like camera shake and positioning. I want to provide you with the best content I can.
I now have a Patreon, find it here

The kit was purchased from
www.emodels.co.uk
Mission Models paints are available from
UK www.scalemodelshop.co.uk
US www.missionmodelsus.com
the tank is very nice
The way you manage to make the panzer gray look so realistic and absolutely not boring leaves me litteraly speachless.
This is both motivating and intimidating at the same time.
Please don't be put off ! The kit builds itself and has a great scope for trying new techniques
I am Japanese. Your production and painting techniques are the best in the world! !!
Thanks for the great video! Currently,
I am making BANDAI 1/15 Sturmgeschütz IV.
I am making it by imitating you. It doesn't go well, but ^^;
Hello ! Thanks a lot that's really encouraging!
1/15 Stug? That sounds awesome ! Nice and big too.
Thanks for the message and happy modelling !
Nice job!!,...in my opinion, one mistake that most of the modelers make is to not to weather the decals, so, in contrast with the rest, they look brand new. Some washes on them or even cut some parts off, may give a more realistic effect.
Thanks Javier thats a good point, when I get around to using masks things like that will be a lot easier to weather, just need to get in gear and find some
Im trying hard to get back into modeling after so many years in a rutt..This tutorial was exactly what i was looking for....Inspiring!!
Keep up the good work!
Martin that's fantastic to hear, and I'm humbled that I might inspire you to get back building. Many thanks !
Same here. I just bought my first kit after a 40 year break...
Excellent camouflage finish - subtle difference in gray and brown.
OK! Excellent work! You've inspired me. I've Ordered mine today. I'm surprised at how little these cost.
Thanks Graham, if I had more time I'd build several more :D
Use solder for springs. Works great.
Just be careful not to use superglue with lead solder, a lot of people have found that a few years later they react together and destroy the model. I use aluminium or copper wire.
Nice job. For wood handles, I have painted the handle with a light brown and then burnt sienna oil paint, left to dry for a while and then “dry brushed” off with a clean brush. It leaves a nice stain. For rusty exhaust, baking soda can be used for a nice effect, but care must be used because too much baking soda just builds up into a mess.
It looks excellent James! Top job mate! I'm gonna use it to help me build & paint the 1/16 Takom Panzer 1B I got for half price from BNA models! Thank you for sharing!
Outstanding build again my friend, the mud effect turned out perfect in my opinion😉🤓👍💙stay safe guys and keep the builds coming👍
Thanks mate ! They will keep coming! Take care, James
Fantastic! Thanks for giving such information as air pressure for airbrushing, paint mix ratios and other things.
Thankyou, Its hard sometimes to remember when I finally get to editing what psi I used so I tend to stick to 20-25 unless I need some special fx or it's a very thick paint. I dont think I mention a lot or ratios but if it's still helpful I'm happy
Excellence beyond description.
Thankyou Lee!
A true master at his craft.
Thankyou Herr Pooper !
Watch this video always with round eyes and open mouth... thank you for this MASTERPIECE !!! Stay safe and best regards! Frank
Very kind Frank thankyou !
Love the tracks wish they did them on all the other kits
That would be great, I think in 35th it would be way too delicate tho !
Take a flame to your PE grills the bend and loose the elasticity in the brass and can be rolled and dented to a much better scale for realism!
its perfect, it looks so simple and yet so rich in detail
im gonna use this as guide lines for my cromwell tank Im making in Unreal Engine
That right there is a thing of beauty! Can't help thinking you just shrunk a real one though! Also, found out a couple of days ago that if you're really in a pinch for primer, humbrol enamel paint works a treat, goes down as well if not better than any primer I have used before over bare plastic, and doesn't scratch half as easily as the acrylic primers I have tried, and since I always leave primers to dry overnight, the fumes are the only real downside, but if you have a spray booth, that will deal with those for the most part anyway
Thanks Simon ! I dont have a spray booth yet unfortunately, and I find the smells of enamels worse than laquer. Good tip though thankyou
@@lpjmodels yeah....the smell is pretty horrendous!
That’s one massive kit, every I see one I think you would need an industrial gravity feed spray gun to paint it! Fantastic work on the weathering.....that mud effect is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Andy
a 1/16 Pz I is tiny in comparison to other 1/16 scale German Panzer RC/Models, such as Hooben's RC "Maus" which is the biggest you'll find on the market in 1/16.
That's probably the best shovel I've ever seen on a model. I have one of these coming on a very slow boat from China. I look forward to it!
Thanks Steven, I'm glad I payed more attention to the tools on this one! I hope you enjoy your build !
Just discovered your channel James. Great stuff. Love the format. My girl is like “don’t you get tired of toy tanks”. Jibberish. Looking forward to more.
Thanks Joe, more is on the way !
I to I’m trying to get back into model making, so much has changed since my last build about 40 years ago. I’ve not seen you before but I loved the detail you went through on that build, you’re very easy to listen to and all the stages are easy to follow so I will be following you for more hints as I try to get back into the hobby I loved years ago. Brilliant thank you very much.
Ray thankyou very much, best of luck with your modelling .
James
Hands of a surgeon...
Thanks mate !
Outstanding Color modulation!
I love your technique for doing those weld seams. They look great.
Thanks Jon !
Hi, great job! I think the mud is perfect, I think too many modelers don’t go far enough with the caked on mud, look at old photos, lots of mud in all the nooks and crannies . The oil/grease was great as well, just look at heavy equipment, lots of oil and grease oozing 😁.
Thanks a lot, I'm pleased in the end how the mud turned out I'm glad you like it!
New benchmark in modelling.
Really nice model James.
Look forward to your next builds.
Thanks Karl 🍻
Great job, and; a good video. I'll say this, that Tres Semme hair spray sprays out just about like that over here in the US. Rather than use a name brand like that, go to a Walmart or a pound shop (think that's what it is in the UK), and buy the very cheapest you can find. The cheaper it is, the easier it is for the water to activate it. In other words not a good spray for hair, IS a good spray for modeling. Also, you can spray some out in the cap and then pour it over into an airbrush cup. Don't know if I would do that in a Harder & Steenbeck, but; a $20 Amazon special would be just the ticket. I'm all for getting the best result, using the least amount of money. I'm going to have to get one of those Panzer I's and see if I can find a 1/16 figure of some sort to stick in the hatch. Good show. Happy modeling, my friend!
Thanks Stephen! I have an old sparmax that would do the job nicely I think. I'll pick up some cheap and nasty stuff and see if I can get a better activation many thanks for the tip.
Someone mentioned Jeff Shiu figures
jeffshiu.lsft.com/product37.html
The site is a bit awkward but there are some awesome larger scale figures on there.
@@lpjmodels Thank you, sir. I'll check it out.
Excellent result
Thanks !
Great idea melting seams away with cement
Your wire cutters look perfect. Well done.
So many things to be learned here. Great detailing and weathering effects. I love that burnt iron look on metal exhausts. Great build! 👍
Thanks a lot Max!
Excellent build and paint job.
Thanks man !
That is museum worthy, well done.
Thankyou !
All the time I've been thinking in those ridiculous panzer berets from early WW2. Amazing job for an amazing model. Cheers mate!
Many thanks ! Those berets were an odd choice eh !
@@lpjmodels yessir!
An immense effort but in the end it was worth it. The result is really impressive👍🏼👍🏼. My honest respect, the model looks absolutely lifelike. Thanks for sharing and greetings from Cuxhaven on the German North Sea shore.👍🏼😁
Thankyou Paul that's really kind! That's a beautiful location to live, thanks for watching !
Great model and inspiring work
Thanks Robert !
UNREAL, or actually, REAL! Holy crap! You sir are a master!
I haven't done a kit for year's you know things like wife's kid's mother in law and dogs getting in the way lol but i am definitely starting again and this kit you did was bloody amazing 👍
Thankyou Steve and good luck when you start up again !
Nice, that's a lot cheaper than other 1/16 Panzer I I've been looking at at a online store based in Germany for a couple of hundred Euros.
Wow that sounds dear, is it a resin one ? This one is a fair price I think for the amount of plastic in the kit.

all i can say is wow..gonna have to watch again for tips on weathering, i've got 3 waitng to get finished
Thanks a lot ! 3 ? That's a few, are any the breda?
Saw it on reddit! Not only do i love your models but also the editing, the camera work and your comments in these videos! Keep it up!
Thanks Sebbl ! I'm really stoked you like the vids, thanks for the feedback!
That turned out AMAZING.
Thanks John !
Fantastic build quality, in fact, the best I've ever seen. Your attention to detail is mindblowing. Thanks for showing such an awesome build!
Thanks very much !
Use the end of a toothpick for making splatter effect as it will make splatter smaller and more in control and realistic. But first try it out on paper 2 3 times and then on model and it will look great!!
Good tip thankyou !
VERY beautiful job!
Thanks Patrick !
OUTSTANDING!!
Thanks Rick
Incredible workmanship, truly worthy of a museum
Many thanks Ari !
Great build I saw this on Reddit!
Hi Blake ! Thanks a lot ! I need to get on reddit more, so much good stuff on the sub!
Best yet. Brilliant attention to detail. Thanks.
Many thanks Frederick
Fantastic work on the tracks! The mud and grease look great.
Thanks John !
Such and underrated channel you deserve lot more subs! The model came out incredibly nice! Love the effort with the dust effects, keep the videos coming!
Michel thankyou very much ! Hopefully if I keep putting the work out I'll get a few more subs !
You literally make the PzKpfw I look good. Excellent work.
Thanks Peter !
I’ve ordered one of these as a direct result of your video James. I’ll send you the bill 😂😂
You'll love it Les it's a great kit !
LPJ Models absolutely James I cant wait. Thanks for the inspiration
Nice camera work on your video....bravo!
Thanks John, its all done on a phone 📱👍
Excellent result, I really enjoyed this video, from start to finish a treasure trove!
Many thanks I'm stoked you enjoyed the whole thing ! More soon!
Very nice. Sank you for this video.
Thankyou Alexei !
Truly phenomenal work! The wooden handles are among the best I have seen. Superb job!
Thanks DWC , they were one of the parts of the built that I was most pleased with
Awesome work James, looking forward to our next jam old bean (Doug)
Thanks Mate! Yes it'll be nice to crack out the guitars again !
Canadian viewer. Outstanding work.
Thank you!
Beautiful job, we’ll done mate!
I've been hesitant on buying Mission Models paint but after watching this I may give them a go. Fantastic build, my friend!
Hi William, the best way to start is to use the FAQ page on the Mission Models website, once you get the gist they are a very good paint.
Thankyou very much !
Great Tank
Thanks Johnny
@@lpjmodels i love your work. Still amazing
Fantastic work m8, I'm also in to the Panzer I build and now I got some tips for my PI.
Thanks Patrick, it's a nice kit with only a few drawbacks. I wish you the best with yours.
Third time of watching James and learn something new each time. Keep em coming fella you’re a constant source of inspiration
Thankyou my freind ! Sorry for the late reply as well !
outstanding presentation and build..suscribed,from a yank in the states
Amazing. I love what you did to your Panzer I Ausf. A. I started a 3D replica of the Panzer I on Blender as part of creating my own collection of WW2 vehicles, tanks, aircraft and warships, and I'm pretty sure this video will help me with some details to conclude my model.
Tony That sounds like a cool project and I'm stoked I might be helping at least in a small way ! Many thanks
James, awesome work my friend. Thank you for sharing....
Thankyou mate !
Awesome tips as you went. Thank you for your insight.
What an amazing work.I just made my first kit a Tamiya Abrams in camo and i have a Zvezda Panzer IV comming but all those weathering effects seems intimidating...
GREAT build and video production. I, for one, appreciate the warnings about ejector pin marks and removal, the tight fit of the fenders to the lower hull, etc. You show how these "glitches" are easily overcome. Your tracks and on-board tools are super. And, the piece de la resistance is your mud effects. In this large scale they are fantastic. You have a new subscriber, James. THANK YOU!
Lawrence thankyou very much, I'm glad you like the video and the tips, I feel bad if I say the kits fine when parts might be a pain, I may not go into tonnes of detail but the warning is there. Thankyou for the sub , much appreciated!
Great Video mate. Great Result.
Re. Spring issue. I pull apart Any lighter I use. (BiC normally.) They have 2 Springs inside. Which I use if the Scale looks Right.
Please make sure the Lighter is Flat or Empty to be Safe..!!
Just an Idea..!?
Cheers kim in Oz. 😎
Amazing work .... again
Thankyou !
Just starting modelling after not doing any since I was a kid ( I’m in my fifties now ). I have watched loads of videos, and yours is by far the best ! Subscribed and can’t wait to watch the next video, the painting and weathering on this tank is amazing !! Keep up the great work 😃
Ian sorry for the late reply, Sometimes the comments slip through. I really appreciate your kind feedback thankyou.!
Really excellent build dude - particularly noteworthy the realistic wood effect on the tank tools.Well done
Thanks Tankman ! I put a lot more effort into the tools as the model was so much bigger than I'm used to. It paid off !
Incredible job
Excellent!
Looks great
Nice one 👍🏻
Awaiting the arrival of a Tiger 1 in 1/16. It will be the first large scale armour yet to tackle, but a lot of good tips when I get around to finishing it.
Thanks Rob, good luck with your big Tiger !
Impressive build James!! I like your weld technique and painting of the tools.. The weathering is fantastic!! I will keep referencing this build when I work on mine..! Looking forward to your next project!!
Thanks Cliff, that's really kind, new video will be soon ish !
A very enjoyable and inspiring video with an awesome result. Many thanks
Thanks Richard ! This is one of my most accomplished I think!
Absolutely beautiful! I have this kit, and can't wait to build the the way you have presented. Thanks so much for your detail.
Charles thankyou for the kind words ! Best of luck with your kit, its great fun to build !
yep, masterpiece. it's a therapeutic video, enjoyed it tremendously, thank you very much.
Many thanks !
Well done lad.
Thanks Kevin !
Great build! 👍
Thanks !
A fantastic build, James.....you certainly created a very realistic, beautifully weathered and worn model tank. It's always such a pleasure watching (and listening to) your builds so congratulations for another outstanding 45:11 minutes. Robert
Hi Robert thankyou very much ! I'm glad you're enjoying my work and there will be loads more to come !
Nice tips and little tricks. Thank you for sharing!
Thankyou Won Choi much appreciated !
JUST ABSOLUTELY AMAZING the attention to detail is out of this world you have made that model so much more with all the detail you have added it's like a miniature of the real thing you half expect to see little men jump into the tank and drive it away as it looks that real well-done sir.
Plus you have made the video interesting in the way you filmed it and overdubbing top marks have subscribed and liked.
John firstly I'm really pleased you liked the build ! Secondly thankyou for the sub !
Excellent model you make it look so easy
Thanks John it's just lots of practice ! Once you get the hang of it it becomes second nature, I spent a lot of time getting to that though !
Excellent build and finishing techniques that look like they'll translate equally well to aircraft models!
Thanks @FlyingSModels ! They should mostly be transferable and there will be more Aircraft builds in the future !
Fantastic results. Congrats
Thanks Arno !
excelente trabajo
Omg, very good
Nice job! I personally think the kit should have an interior. Like takoms FT kit...anyway great build!
Hi James, that would be nice to have the option at least for those who want one !
That is one hell of a paint job (and weathering)! 👍
Hard to beat. Nice work!
Many thanks Frederick!
This is really high quality video, very nice for beginners. Thank you
Thank you Leon for watching !
looks fantastic.
