young man, you are very talented and dont let anybody try to tell you otherwise. this video has my complete attention at the moment. i have been researching this very subject for some time. keep up the great work. stay safe and healthy. Standing ovation.
Thank you, he wasn't a fan of the Sea Blue lines when he first saw them. But after the Rubber black was painted on the hull, he quickly changed his mind :)
I've had the Revell 1/72 sitting in my pile-of-shame for 20-something years now. Came looking for inspiration to finally build it...found it. I reckon a restoration must actually be harder than a straight build from a new kit. Well done.
Thanks, I hope that you have fun with the build. It's a monstrous kit to tackle, but it was a lot of fun to do. I'd do more of these in the future if I had the room to display them in. I don't know if it was harder, but it was a lot more work as far as getting it all cleaned up. Once that was done the painting and weathering (which I anticipated to be a lot or work) didn't take too much longer to complete. But all the sanding and filling and more sanding, that part of the build I nearly gave up on this project.
Nice vid. Thanks It remminded me when I finished a wooden galeion my dad has started and never finished before he died. Thank you dads for all legacies you gave us and made us the men we are.
What a wonderful background and ability you have. When I saw the date when the tower came off it was something else. Congratulations on a job well done.
WOW!!! The difference between building a model and creating a work of art could not be better illustrated than this.....I imagine this is what it must of been like watching Picasso or Michelangelo create their masterpieces....well done indeed.
To be honest, when I first painted on the light and dark blue camouflage he really didn't like it. Later on after I painted the black hull and removed the masking he warmed up to it a lot. I've never seen that kind of reaction out of him before with one of my models haha.
Great save on an old kit. I buy older and "pre-owned" kits from a couple of online sources. Some need reworking from the previous owners attempts at a build. I love what you did with this one. Very inspirational.
Stunning! Weathering top notch. So many layers, so much detail. Equally impressive are your skills in video photography, editing, and music mixing. Great job.
Thanks Michael, it worked out really well, except for the sides of the boat, as the raised rivets ripped it up. But a soft eraser works really well too.
What an amazing restoration ,superb attention to detail ,I have both the VIIC and Type IX with all the photo etch goodies to go with them ,this video will motivate me to build them 👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing rebuild! I have one sitting on a shelf in the garage I got from a friend after it was damaged at his place. It too needs a rebuild but most of the parts are missing so some scratch building is in order, after seeing this vid I’m quite inspired to fix the one I have. Thanks for sharing, always enjoy your channel.
Thanks Andy, I hope that you will, this restoration was a really fun project. I enjoyed it so much that I almost bought another one this summer, but sadly I don't have the room for it.
Great 👍! I have this kit too, I built the version of U203 which was a one toned grey color painted by Testor's "Dark Sea Grey". I have some troubles of clue the deck with the hull but it was solved.
What a great video, well done. It was interesting to see you do some of these techniques in a way I'd not seen before (weathering, rust etc). Your Dad must have been very pleased with the end result.
April 19th 2021 .. first time seeing this... Nice.... marking the completion date... You’re a fine modeler... I’m learning how to build models again... Boy , am I rusty... Chris from Ohio
A fitting tribute to your dad's original work, well done. Can I suggest that you think about why chipping occurs in the first place - repeated use of things that damage paint, whether it be feet, ropes, tools etc. Then apply that to the lips of hatches, railings, decking that gets the most foot traffic. Especially the sides of the boat when they come alongside and get long horizontal rubs and scratches. You've got the skills already, just need some thought about the cause of wear and tear. Again, great job!
If your current project goes “mammary glands skywards”, put it to one side and restore someone else’s. I like it! A job well done, mate. Effort, patience and imaginative flair pays off.
These kits were so cool and unique when they first came out. Still have one that I put together, and while it looks OK, wish I would have done a few more models before tackling such a large one.
Holy Hot Damn !!!!! I was just thinking of suggesting that you should have used " Silly Putty " as a masking tool . Nice to see someone else that knows the benefit of a silicone polymer . I've been using it since it was suggested back in the 80's in " Fine Scale Modeler mag " . Great Job !!!!
Kind of you to say, but I'm still just as fumbly as ever haha. This was just a new break from the usual aircraft so I was able to try out some new ideas that were on my mind. It was a really fun project, but I don't think I can mask that much Masking Sol NEO ever again haha :)
Love the music, and awesome repaint. Apparent little known fact to the majority of modelers of U Boats. The U Boats that went through detailed scrutiny by the allied navy’s. The paint used on U Boats remains a mystery today. The color is no mystery, the chemical mix is the mystery. The paint could not be scraped off. Extremely hard to sand. Held up better than any known paints. Point I am making is all rust and chips modelers put on U Boats is not true to the actual U Boats in service.
@@justinsane3909 it's a myth. The paint they use back in the WW-II times on german submarines was a mix out of rust protection and color. The steel they use was highly alloyed steel and did not rust that easy, but it will, only later and not so strong than a regular kind of steel, but there will be rust sooner or later.
Looks good your improving. Your 72nd U-Boat is a good primer for the 1/48 U-boat from Trumpeter. Been working on that one for over a year now. It's like 6 mini Dioramas in a tube haha.
That is some of the best weathering i have ever seen,outstanding! I guess your dad was pleased. It is a long time since i built boats but this video made me want to build one.
Thanks Burt, and I agree with you there. The only decal I used was the shield on the front of the tower. I was hoping for something with more flash, but I decided on the 2-tone blue over number and art.
Absolutely stunning the music made the restoration for m it was very emotive n thought provoking, for me that is. Overall fantastic modelling skills bravo sir n to your dad for the original build 👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏🍺🍺✌🏻✌🏻🕊
Thanks Peter, I was surprised when he gave me the kit to restore. But he said that he already had the fun of building it, and won an award for it, so I could do whatever I wanted. And it was a very freeing project to play with :)
Wow!! What a marvellous job, very impressive, your dad must be proud! Can you tell me where you like to get your supplies, ie Mr Surfacer 1200 and the pencils for the rust effects? Fantastic work, and thanks for the great video
It wasn't too bad before, but you definitely improved it, I built that kit in 2005 and I wished I'd taken the time to build it right, twas my first 1:72 scale submarine
Excuse my ignorance but I'm trying to re-learn things and find new ideas. Do you have any ideas about "tide marks" up the side of vessels ? Maybe not many people would see them but they are there.
@@rebelsatcloudnine I did try to email u. But I do not know if it went through. I'm still interested in wanting to see if I can buy that beautiful German u-boat. If I can not reach u by email, which I do not do much of that. But I can give u my number and u need me to. Thank u

But if some reason I have trouble emailing u and don't get my text then my email address james.justice172@gmail.com. I'm not use to doing this email stuff to much, because I'm use to talking to a person about buying stuff.

I usually send him the money by money order. But I will try again tomorrow morning. Thank u so much for contacting me back. God bless u and ur family and good night. Hope everyone at ur home is ok.
Great video... shows ACTUAL BUILDING and PAINTING. so many many “build videos” are nothing more than “see what I DID” rather than “watch as I ACTUALLY DO”. Thank you. P.S. I dislike the music, but RUclips will be served
I learned several techniques to apply to the Revell 1/144 scale version I am completing. Thank you. Suggestion: don't linger so long on a technique. I repeatedly scrolled forward through almost each application of paint, wash, etc. Everything that I needed to learn and understand could have been presented in half the time.
@@rebelsatcloudnine Yes.. and the odd heap. But our dog is very good, he must be extremely desperate to do anything indoors, he rather keep his legs crossed and wait.
Für mich als "Anfänger" großes Kino. Super toll gemacht!
Painting rust that is convincing is never a walk in the park.
Ich hab diesen Typ U - 552 mal gebaut....ohne Tarnanstrich ....aber diese Art....große Klasse 👏👏👏eine total tolle Arbeit....

@@rebelsatcloudnine correction young man, I love it. Phenomenal work.
Just watched this again, good on you for honoring dad, awesome.

Thank you very much Chris :) That means a lot as I was really worried that the footage wouldn't come out properly on this project.
Fantastic work! Master colouring
Love the chipping. Never thought of using a rubber brush before. You did a Fantastic job on this Sub!!!!! Love It!!!!
Thanks Michael, it worked out really well, except for the sides of the boat, as the raised rivets ripped it up. But a soft eraser works really well too.
WOW!! Bravo. The yard birds would be very pleased with this rebuild. Nice job!! You're father would be proud.
I have the same model. You're motivating me to paint it again. It's crazy beautiful
I still think of you, Heinz Bauchloh. Thanks for all you taught me.
What an amazing restoration ,superb attention to detail ,I have both the VIIC and Type IX with all the photo etch goodies to go with them ,this video will motivate me to build them 👍🏻👍🏻
Start one of them soon, this is a really, really fun kit :) I wish I had extra space as I'd love to build more of these.
OH Man !!! Your rebuild is fantastic and very impressive.. I'm sure that your Dad is pretty proud right about now. Great work my friend.
Awesome, awesome, chapeau!
Great job man! beautiful sea beast!
You gave two or three upper levels to your fathers great job!
Awesome paint job keep up the good work
Excellent work !! Very well done.
I picked up some new tricks thanks to you.
I'm sure that your Dad was impressed 😊
Great job. I'm inspired to make one too.

Beautiful work my friend, consider that a BIG tick off your bucket list.👍🙌
Fantastic work
Great and beautiful job. Compliments!!!!! 👍👍🤩🤩🤩
I was mesmerised by the spray painting, there’s just something about it when it’s being applied, so much skill with controlling the airbrush.
Thank you, there was a lot of painting footage that I hadn't used, and I thought that I had used too much, so I'm glad that it's being enjoyed :)
Great 👍! I have this kit too, I built the version of U203 which was a one toned grey color painted by Testor's "Dark Sea Grey". I have some troubles of clue the deck with the hull but it was solved.
The epicenter of epic epicness....
I'm at home with a bad back. This made me forget the pain for half an hour.. Thank you!
Well, I'm glad that this was a brief distraction for you Rob :) I hope you start feeling better soon.
What a great video, well done. It was interesting to see you do some of these techniques in a way I'd not seen before (weathering, rust etc). Your Dad must have been very pleased with the end result.
Pretty good man, can’t wait to get my hands on one of these!
Looks incredible! Awesome restoration and great attention to detail. Always enjoy your videos!
