King Tiger [28mm]

- I built the Warlord 28mm scale King Tiger. It's pretty good! It does King Tiger things quite adequately!
Sad that you can't have both turrets without extra effort, but it's a good kit anyway!

I want a herbert erpaderp branded T-shirt with "I apply pressure to minimise the gap" on it ;)
or: i have no idea what this are (is)
I applied pressure to my sisters neck and she went to sleep instantly! She slept for 5 days straight.
Seeing a video from you after a hard day of school on a Monday is really relaxing! Great!
Looks very King Tiger-y... which is good.. I like it a lot.
I love the Warlord plastic kits.
I just built and painted a resin WASP flame carrier and hated every second of it. Nothing quite fits, the details are obscured...I'll take plastic any day of the week. The Panther A and Puma were a joy to build, especially the suspension for the Puma
I'm pretty sad I lost my video when I built the Puma. It was a fun kit to build. The suspension is nice.
I'm shocked you didn't mention the exhaust cover and exhaust holes were really happy smiley faces.
You know. It didn't even occur to me until I was doing the final edit. And I was too lazy to add extra dialogue. haha. I had a little chuckle to myself and wondered if anyone else would see it.
I think a "what if" 1946 experimental camoflage would be cool ! Nice video btw
Bock 2002 it wouldnt work with the zimmerit tho
It could perhaps be an older tank with zimmerit, just repainted in '46.
Bonjour , 28 mm ou pas , cela mérite un peu plus de détails. C’est trop simplifié. Avec les nouvelles techniques d’injection de plastique, vous pouvez faire beaucoup mieux que ça. Le résultat n’est correct que si l’on regarde de loin. Un plateau de jeu doit avoir plus de réalisme. J’accorde de l’importance à ce fait. Même la simple figurine mérite qu’on s’y attarde pour un réalisme accru. En produisant à la chaîne on peut récupérer le temps passé sur ces figurines. Les visages faits au monoculaire sont d’une beauté 😀😀😀✊🏻👍🏻 tant pis si ça demande du temps. S’il faut des figurines au plus vite ,peignez les avec l’option possible de les améliorer après. Il y va de la survie non seulement des jeux de plateau, mais aussi du modélisme , des dioramas, des minis tournages de vidéos historiques...etc... Pensez que le temps passé est un investissement à moyen et long terme , pour le bonheur des yeux des tous petits , jusqu’aux plus âgés , ainsi que la passion des joueurs , maquettistes, et collectionneurs. J’expose juste mon opinion personnelle , en aucun cas c’est dans un but malveillant ou de troll. Humblement, David.
Both turrets were made by Krupp. Common term is prototype and production turret.
A normandy three tone camo (dunkelgelb, green and a brownish red) would be a nice change of past from al the latr war pea dot and battle of the bulge camos!
When I built my king tiger I stuffed some green stuff in the machine gun port to fix the gap and that looks alright
That's probably the best fix for the problem.
Outstanding model! Wouldn't take much to make it a jaw dropper. I've seen that decal sheet before. It looks like the one from a Collect-air kit ? If you want to do one of the kit markings let me know and I'll give you references for it. The ones with the changing knight is well documented. Color dictates the company and I think the camo was in the color of that marking. Most used large swaths of the camo color, i.e. brown knight, red brown camo. Very late vehicles covered the base color in large areas. This was because they were fighting in cities and the dark colors were better. While the streaks of yellow brown made a good scattered light effect.
I just love watching you build kits. You do an excellent job my friend.
I didn't know that. I thought it was cool that there was different coloured knights and figured maybe they were just randomly coloured.
That's an interesting way to tell different companies apart.

If that's the scheme you want to do then here's what you should use. The base of the gun tube (in front of the mantle) was yellow and had the vehicle number on both sides. The charging knight was actually put on the turret sides. There's a square left in the zimmerette for the knight marking.. If you want to do another then let me know and I'll give you the information.
Herbert Erpaderp you have Appeased the model gods .We are very pleased with your latest build of the king tiger tank. Although we wish you would have scratch built an MG 34 out of your bolt action German infantry kits and mount that on that king tiger tank as it probably has more detail than the one supplied with the kit reviewed. The Model Gods would like to see you paint this king tiger tank as a very late war piece together tank used in the defense of Berlin. OK thank you for the video I may just go out and buy that warlord king tiger tank!
It didn't occur to me to use an MG from the bits box. Though to be pedantic that wouldn't be scratch building. I don't have that kind of scratch building skill haha.
But that's still a pretty good idea if I have a spare MG34. I might just leave it off still and just claim they're not interested in shooting from the commander's hatch that day haha.
Looks like a very good model. To me the one piece road wheels and the hull MG are no big deal breaker. Both will be hidden in the shadows. Thumbs up for the model and your video.
Great!
Nice love your video's
Heh the holes for the exhaust parts looked like smiley faces
I whud love a painting guid! !!
As for colours why not a camo Hull with Red Primer turret and grey heat resistant paint gun?...you could paint a number on the side to make it look like the crew chalked it on
James Valentine i love those schemes. Like the super late war emergency production
Wouldn't work with the zimmerit tho :(
MaestroAll ahh damn. You're right. You'd only get the mantlet and turret top.
Bummer.
nice!
Maybe a winter camo scheme
question for 'Ask a Herbert Erpaderp' can you spray army painter ink washes through a airbrush? if so what would you use to clean it e.g. enamel or acrylic cleaners?
You build so many nice Bolt Action models, when are we gonna get some Bolt Action battle reports!?
Eventually. I've got some german infantry I want to paint first. They take a lot of time to do.
Warlord's Zimmerit on everything German is such a disappointment in both how uniform the pattern is and in that it was only applied to vehicles for a few months. This would be a really nice kit if not for that. And the solid wheels. And the lack of ability to make both turrets.
:(
I'm not really a fan of even nicely done zimmerit, but I don't have much of a probelm with it. It is a bit too perfect and neat though.
If I was given the choice I'd choose it plain and zimmeritless.
I'm really surprised that Warlord/Rubicon haven't tried something along the lines of Tamiya's stick-on zimmerit sheets. From what I recall, Rubicon are going to be producing photo-etch sheets for their kits starting from the new Panzer IV, though whether they'll include zimmerit is another thing entirely. Still, it's easier to add zimmerit than remove it!
I'd love to see some photo etch zimmerit, I would be unlikely to use it myself, but it'd be a cool choice. I've seen that they'll be including some photo etch. Rubicon are doing really good things.
Did you change the colour of your end-video model displayer area? Also, awesome video Herbert!
I figured using a white background was better than a black one. It comes with its own challenges. I mostly did that when I build the Ark Royal because a black primed model would be super hard to see against a black backdrop.
Why dont you put the commander in the hatch?
Make a urban / post-apocalyptic camouflage :)
Good thing this has no dislikes!!
Yeah, I aint drillin. Im gonna just trim the guide knobs off of the side skirts. lol
have you done a paint vid of this?
Dunno what the price difference is, but I think I would have gone for the 1/48th scale Tamiya one better moulding, better looks, better scale.
Yep. a 1:48 scale tank would definitely be better to use for a game with armies that are in 1:56 scale... 🙄
It’s been proved many times in many articles most 1/48th scale vehicles are a better visual scale match for the chunkier heroic style 28mm figures than 1/56th scale vehicles.
Generally the smaller the vehicle the worse 1/56th scale looks, a lot of the jeeps, halftracks and trucks looking tiny.
The actual ideal size is 1/50th scale vehicles, but the available range in this scale is limited.
@@guylawrance2216 I see! The best has been proven and isn't at all subjective. My mistake!
Herbert Erpaderp - ermmmm, not gonna get into a row cause it’s not important and I love you and your stuff too much - wish I’d never made the original comment now 😔 Best Wishes keep doing what you do 👍
Try to find a t34 model
I have done a few.
ive seen a drill on other videos that's electric do you know what kind of drill it is?
On other videos of mine? I don't have any electric drills. So I've no idea what drill you're talking about.
my apologizes maybe ive seen it somewhere else
I used to build models when I was younger and stopped my early middle to high school life. watching your vids are got me inspired to build again
For model building an electric drill is not necessary, and likely undesirable. A pin vise is the way to go.

The quality of plastic dilutions is poor
I'm not quite sure what you mean by plastic dilutions. I didn't dilute any plastic.
The zimmerit is too regular, therefore phoney looking.
