Hello dear qdc I'm watching you since 7 years right now and you inspired me to do modell building by myself. And even tought I curently stop doing it, I'm still coming here from time to time just to make sure you're still uploading videos and having fun encouraging people to start with this beautiful hobby. Thx for all the great valuables lessons I learned from you're videos. Cheers from Germany
Cute. Thank you very much for watching my video. I lack confidence in 2014 but I'm certainly glad I finished this kit. I want to wish you and your family a good day. Take care 😀😀
Thank you. For years I didn't know people enjoyed autonomous sensory meridian response (AMSR) in my videos. I'm glad you like it. Thank you again for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it.
That Dragon M-16 really looks awesome. I can’t believe how cramped that poor gunner is in that AA seat! I’m 6-3 & would get cloister phobic as heck all squeezed in like that. It was cool to see it in action at the Fairfield, Ca.base. I live in Seattle but I grew up in Danville, Ca about 35 miles away from there(‘75-‘80) I really like that Verlinden accessory set, they always pack them full so that you can have extras for other kits. The huge front winch really turned out great Q, that AV Vallejo rust streaks set is fantastic, a decade in the making but well worth the wait.
Thank you for your kind words. This is a good kit and it's too bad they don't make it anymore. The accessories from Verlinden Productions adds a lot of interests to this project, I agree. I know Danville, CA well. I honestly want to thank you for watching this video. Take care.
I miss the detailed painting breakdowns. I learned a lot from you talking about lighting and shadows, using different techniques and showing real-world examples. Great video as always QDC.
Wow QDC that's amazing. My deceased uncle, trained on the quad halftrack in Germany in 1953. About the same period they reinstated the Wermackt. ( German Infantry.) 1953. Nice build, Dragon has alot of parts, and building their kit's is challenging. Thanks again for sharing.😊.
Thank you for watching this video and thank you for subscribing. I'm a humble man who is trying to encourage others to build their model kits. Take care 😀😀
Another fact for the M16 is not only used in AA roles but can be used for ground support which earned its nickname, the "Meat Grinder" due to its ability to pulverize enemy infantry within seconds thanks to the 0.50 cal. Quad Mount. The Soviets acquired some M16's as a part of the Lend-Lease as well..
Just subscribed to your channel I don't know why I didn't before as I've been watching your videos for years I can tell your a good man and modeler also BTW I'm a Christian an a armor modeler too
Thanks for subscribing to my channel. I've been making videos for over 10 years and I always been myself on all my videos. I never tried to act or be someone else. Speaking of being Christian, I recently came back from Rome and visited the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica. It's a beautiful place and you should visit there if you haven't already. My next video will be the Tamiya Carro Armato tank. I plan to use Rome as my backdrop for my intro. I wish you and your family a good day. Take care 😊😊
Wow!!! It's not too often I get to hear people from a younger generation like this! I am humbled after all these years you still return to watch my videos but as a young adult now. I'm touched that my videos had a small part in your growth. You're still very young and you have a whole life ahead of you! Pursue your dreams and take breaks. I wish you and your family the best! You made my day! Take care. 😀😀
I have a good friend who is going to build a Tamiya kit just like yours. It's not the product you build but the enjoyment you get out of it. I encourage you to enjoy it and not worry about anything else. Take care 😊😊
That's very nice to say that! I'm just a regular guy trying to encourage others to build their kits. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it. 😀😀
Yes, we all do. I think it's just human nature to doubt ourselves but I'm glad I finally finished this kit after all these years. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it. 😀😀😀😀
Goes to prove it is never too late to finish a model.. even if it was started years ago!! :) I have the Tamiya Mortar version of the US half track, which is different to this version, obviously. I need to get it built, have always wanted to build a US half track, ever since I saw one driving, many years ago. I have also seen one or two static ones. The first one I saw was the same version as what you did in this video, with the AA guns. . :) Good to see Buster is supervising you, as always. And yes, when it comes to accessories, sometimes less is more. I'm doing the same with the M6 Gun Carrier WC-55 that I'm currently builing, I'm leaving a few things off, because it will look better. I may have to invest in the 'Rust & Streaking' set you showed, as it is one thing I have trouble getting to look good. It worked very well for you. The end result of the build is a piece of art, the weathering in particular is excellent.. Well done, my friend!! :) You were finally ready to complete it!! :)
Hello qdc, I love these US Halftracks. You built it very well. But what is with the painting? The vehicle and the Helmets of the Soldiers looks more brown, than green?
Hello 😊😊. During World War Two the US Army used a color called Olive Drab which is mostly brown in color. This color is unstable back then and it often changed color if exposed to the sun for a long time. It often turns to a yellowish color. I think the Marine Corps used green during the war but I'm not entirely sure. Take care 😀😀
Congrats by finish this interesting model. For a comparation that could be interesting you could try of build the TAMIYA 1/35 GERMAN HANOMAG SD.KFZ.251/1 ARMORED HALF-TRACK. I'm sure that you caould have a great experience. Another project would be build a tank of Israel taking in count the situation in these times
You're welcome. I don't view other people's channels too much but I was told that my videos are like ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) and it helps them relax. I hope this video will encourage you to build your own model kits. I have a few friends who tells me that building model kits help them relax and focus back on what's important in their lives. Take care. 😀😀
Thank you for watching my video. I rode the Israeli version of the halftrack but I did not drive it. Riding on a halftrack was like going on a bumpy roller coaster ride. That is the best way I can describe being a passenger in this vehicle. Take care 😀😀
WELL yes neat stuff and fun see you riding it one and the real life one had a lot of DAKA as ork will say but seen put gether and por gunner cant see what shooting at no EYERS hek no heed why ? (and buter helps out )LOL and kit as DA orks will say has lot daka to and looks great tune in to the nest one and a SCARRY HALLWEN bla bla

You are very welcome. This is a hobby that can stop and start again anytime you desire. I will upload a new video tomorrow. Look for it. 😀😀
Started in 2014. Finished 2023 .About right for a Dragon kit
Cute. Thank you very much for watching my video. I lack confidence in 2014 but I'm certainly glad I finished this kit. I want to wish you and your family a good day. Take care 😀😀
I'm late to the clock discussion.. but I love the clock!

That clock in the background killed the rest of my brain cells
😁😁

Thank you for your kind words and thank you for watching. Take care.
Those older decals still good, nice paint job!
Yes, I think it's because it was sealed in a plastic bag. Thank you for your kind words and thank you for watching my video. 😀😀

You are welcome. 😊😊Thank you for sharing a little bit of your family history on RUclips. I'm glad you enjoyed this video. Take care 😀😀
Excellent build by the master. Love the subtle weathering. The accessories and figure add to the liveliness of the model. Great work
You're too kind. Thank you. 😊😊
Another brilliant finished model. I’m glad I found your channel

Great video, thankyou very much.
No, I want to thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it. 😀😀
I wish one of the new companies released a US half track, better quality and better pricing.
That would be good idea. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it. Thank you. 😀😀

You gave this kit real justice with the end product, great paint job and presentation. Keep the vlogs coming and stay safe.
Thank you honestly for your kind words. I honestly appreciate them! 😀😀
Great job. I think that we all have those projects that we doubted ourselves.
Yes, we all do. I think it's just human nature to doubt ourselves but I'm glad I finally finished this kit after all these years. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it. 😀😀😀😀

My cat is like glue. He follows me everywhere! 😀😀
@@qdc748a It's because you treat him well.

I might. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it.
You have another ability: your admirable humbleness.
Love your channel it has helped my mental state, thank you.

to be fair if they based all the rolls off of a real picture some of those would be cammo nets and in pics probably look like blankets
I never thought of that. I think you might be right.
Fantastic results, well worst revisiting the kit.
Yes, I think it was a lack of confidence back then. I'm glad I finally finished it up.
Can you do an Trumpeter 1/35 #01596 Jagdpanzer E-100? It would be good to see side by side with your completed Dragon E-100!
Thank you for watching my video. 😀😀 I might take your suggestion. 😊😊
another great project, great workmanship, thanks for the great inspiration
You're too kind. I want to thank you for watching my video. Take care 😀😀
Sorry about that last word I meant to say keep modeling
😀😀
Great work! Did you drive an Israelian version in the video?
Thank you for watching my video. I rode the Israeli version of the halftrack but I did not drive it. Riding on a halftrack was like going on a bumpy roller coaster ride. That is the best way I can describe being a passenger in this vehicle. Take care 😀😀
Make m939 pleasee
WELL yes neat stuff and fun see you riding it one and the real life one had a lot of DAKA as ork will say but seen put gether and por gunner cant see what shooting at no EYERS hek no heed why ? (and buter helps out )LOL and kit as DA orks will say has lot daka to and looks great tune in to the nest one and a SCARRY HALLWEN bla bla
👁👁
i prefer to buy tamiya
Tamiya is definitely and easier kit to build with less parts. This kit is very complicated.
