    I'm really developing a "hate/love" relationship with this site. I love how this guy explains everything and demonstrates how these kits go together. I hate that I am now addicted to building Tamiya tank kits...I build ships normally...but these kits are just fun to build...and it's starting to get expensive.

      My wife hates Andy because he has cost her so much money. On the upside, she never sees me.

    Andy, still one of the best on-line mentors that I have ever seen. Thanks for taking the time and the effort to consistently produce videos that are helpful, insightful, educational and enjoyable! Please keep it up!

    I love how you say the road wheels just require a little bit of time. I spent a whole weekend cleaning and building the road wheels!

    Andy, one feature I liked about the easy 8 WWII kit is that the idle wheel has grooves so you can adjust the tension of the track like in the real tank by rotating it and once you reach the effect you like you glue it in that position. Like always, great video!

    I built the WWII version. What a fun build. Zero issues.

  • @JackSSN605
    @JackSSN605 5 лет назад +1

    Great help as always. I just finished this kit in the C Company version and found it to be great Tamiya kit. One thing; in past I always paint and add wheels last with the tracks. this time I did your version in the video and added all wheels for painting entire model. That gave me a problem with getting the tracks on over the two top roller wheels. Had to bend the wheels slightly (one broke off) to get the tracks on. Turned out fine but in future I think I will add wheels separately .

    It's good to know what airbrush you're using... but it would be super useful to know what the needle size and pressure are, as well.

  • @jerryvolpini7987
    @jerryvolpini7987 7 лет назад

    Great kit - nice updated variant of the 'Easy Eight'. Really like this decal option, the canvas mantlet, new tracks- all good stuff. Would love to see this on a diorama/base in Korean War setting with or without the M40, maybe use the Gaz jeep and replicate the box cover?

    At 12:15 you mentioned that you filled in the holes for the hull parts S8 & S10. I found an archive photo of Rices Red Devils that had that attachment. So you can add those parts if you want to.

    Great kit. I love your videos Andy, I learn something new with every one I watch. I worked in one of the original Squadron Shops, in Elmhurst, Illinois about 45 years ago. I actually met Shep Paine, that was a thrill. I have one question for you. I was taught to wash the parts first, to get the mold release oil off, for a better painting surface, but I've never heard you mention it. Is that true or am I just wasting my time? Thanks again for the videos!
