Terrific job! The 1/56 scale is starting to grow on me. It's a nice compromise between 1/76 & 1/35. Looking forward to seeing more builds in this scale. 👍🙂
i have build many of Rubicon models ...i can tell for sure.....are better than many top brand ones from 1/72 and 1/35 scales ,I have both tigers with interior but i havent build them yet....nice build anyway ,great job !
Amazing little kit! Nice clean build too. I would expect a red oxide under the broken of skirt, no? I think that even zimmerit was was applied before the camo, so any broken off patch uncovered red color, supposedly. So I would expect any "factory part" to be bolted on after red oxide and before camo
Interesting kit . I build 1/35 tanks and have never like 1/72nd scale. I have a 1/48 scale Cromwell on order to try a smaller scale . But this kit seems to have a lot of detail for the scale . Now depending on PRICE ,a big factor , I'd like to try these kits 😀 Great job !
most 1/56 scale historical kits are more for the Wargaming crowd, this Rubicon model seems to be a first for them when it comes to the interior details
really well done, was a cool watch... but (48:01) i just wanted to point out panzer crews (and panzer grenadiers) in both the Wehrmacht and SS had pink piping on their epaulets, white was infantry.
Nice build. I'm surprised you didn't replace those blobs that are supposed to be grab handles with wire, or the tow cables with some fine copper braided wire.
wowee this was a miniature would buy long ago Thanks, thas what i get for not reading descriptions use to thinking they mostly come in one size like those Model kits. I like the miniature kits giving the space in the studio i Live in.
That one goes together so much nicer than the Takom's 1:35 Königstiger I'm enjoying these days 😅 Great-looking tank, yay for more Panzerwagen projects!
Amazing job. That turrets a lot more cramped than I imagined! How come you didn't apply a satin varnish before applying the pin wash? Don't you find the wash goes everywhere?
Awesome! How come no powder burns on the barrel end? Its my knowledge that it gets quite dirty even after a few shots fired... Other than that it's fantastic! Well done...
Like your vids, really detailed, the ONE thing i would love more of is just more of you using the thin glue, its a really good bit of ASMR when the brush going in and out of the little pot lol, but other than that great vids man, watched most of the ones i can :)
Haven't played in eons but, if the Ultramarine has a plasma pistol, then he's got it hands down. Not sure if a 'Bolter' could punch through. And what could the King's 88 do to power armor... I am thinking he wouldn't totally shrug it off, and would at least knock him back 10 feet. Good question!
Warhammer 40K is actually 32mm. It was originally 28mm back in the eighties, very early nineties. Then it went to 30mm and then 32mm. The Primaris and some of the new models like death guard are now closer to 40mm.
you forget primaris are supposed to be 8 and a half (8' 6") to 9 ft tall, the models are ~44.5mm tall (intercessors) which makes them 8ft 1inch tall in 1/56 scale. to get to primaris lore size you need to have it at scale 1/60 (to get 8ft 7") which is halfway between 25mm (1/64) and 28mm (1/56). (1/64 gives a height of 9ft 3"). so no primaries are actually *smaller* than 28mm, and even if they were regular marines rather than taller marines they would still be 28mm scale not 40mm scale (1/48). for a primaris to be 40mm scale it would need to be ~54mm tall.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 according to GW their scale is 32mm. If you look at any 3rd party miniature companies that produce models intended to be used along side GW's models they are also marketed as 32mm. Also, when measuring miniature size you measure from the bottom of the feet to eye level. Not feet to top of head.
dude! I'm from Russia! But I love watching you make models! I wish you to continue to pursue your hobby! Can you think about building Sd.Kfz. 251 (more precisely "DRAGON 6864")? I'm just a little clumsy, and I know English at an average level!
What was the Part count Please? It looks like a lovely kit. I enjoyed your video, A lovely paint job.. Great Idea painting as you went and how you added the extra detail with the Vallejo putty! I see the Zimmeret version of this kit has the non zimmeret parts included as well. So I imagine you can put together a few diferent options. I'm now considering buying one now as a result of this video.
Cortaste mal los guardabarros, las cejas son guías de la parte delantera para ser superpuesta a la trasera continuamente y las dejaste planas en tu modelo a escala.
I saw a few articles about Panzers III - IV being painted white on the inside so as to make the tank not feel so small for the crew. Not sure if that would have applied to this one, but I think it would have been nice. edit: ah so you did do that for a bit of it
Actually the Panzers were not white on the inside the germans used RAL1001 elfenbein (ivory) but it is not white or off-white as we know it but more like a very light sand colour. Transmission and related parts were painted feldgrau a grey colour if I remember correctly. Late in the var the whole interior was painted in red primer. But the crews complained that it was too dark and depressing and they went back to elfenbein. At least for what was above the sponsons below it was still red primer. But I guess that all combinations existed on the battlefield.
It may be small, but it's packed with detail, has high quality parts and quite a few options for customization. I also enjoyed building it, so yeah I think it was worth it.
Alright I have a question regarding Cement vs Superglue and their toxicity, like I didnt know that tamiya extra thin cement is neurotoxic. I had the window open and I wasnt wearing a mask I opened the cap, and the odor was horrible. I immediately closed the cap, but now Im worried about the neurological side effects of that. So knowing u r in the hobby how bad is using that types of cements? Also why are those cements that are hazard and unhelathy being sold to teenagers? like WTF. The label said not for under 14 but what about above 14? Also how´s possible that after 40 years no one has ever invented something THAT IS SAFE in the model kit industry???Do u use a mask when using tamiya extra thin cement? like the covid masks
@@modelchili ty. Anycase I think that the tamiya extra thin cement is really a hazard dangerous product that shouldnt be allowed to be sold to teenagers. And I also dont get why it has been around for 40+ years without tamiya releasing anything safe or better
Could you have masked off the areas that mated together before painting? the paint might have been the cause of the problems with the upper and lower hulls. Great build and paint job btw, as always.
The smurf would win. Hands down. His pistol is as powerful as the tank's gun and with the armor he'll toss the white boy around. Beutiful build. :)
I suspected as much. Thanks!

Loved this build. I'm not really into army models but I must admit that I quite fancy giving this a go.
It's a fun little kit!
I've just got this out of my stash,ready to start. I'll definitely be referencing this video when i start it. Great build. 👍
Thanks!
Loved watching this, great job.
I've just received the Zimnerit version and will be starting that shortly👍
Nice, hope it goes well!
Great Job!! skipped ahead and winged it! :) don't we all! Thankyou!

Thanks! This was a pretty good quality kit for sure.
What price do they go for ?
a german type VII submarine like this would be amasing.
Beautiful build and kit, I'm a modeller that wargames, that's is no simple "game piece".
Don’t forget the1/48 armour from tamiya. That is my go to scale. Nice detail on a not to big scale. Great work as always sir.
Wow great job I just build and painted this same model. Great job
Amazing little kit! Nice clean build too. I would expect a red oxide under the broken of skirt, no?

Rubicon's models are perfect for Bolt Action. My German army looks gorgeous with the Panzers escorting them. Then I get it watch them get blown up.
this is a gorgeous little kit! might have to get one for myself sometime.

It’s a pity they didn’t make the turret top detachable, that way the gun can be glued into position and still allow the turret interior to be seen.
Sand the side down a bit to make it fit nicely, that us what I did.
I'm thinking...this is good! I have limited space for my models and this 1/52-40mm scale suits me. That is until I looked at the price.
idk, i would say, that the crew is slightly to big compared to the Königstiger.
Thanks for the tips. Do you wash your parts before removing them from the sprue?
Glad to help! I only wash the parts if they feel oily, otherwise not usually.
oh nice 777 likes, guess i have good luck for the day, thanks
Could you post a list of the paints you’ve used please?
Very nice! Too bad you can’t see that interior! 😞.
