Nice work. Takes me back to the 70s when I started building tank models. The Jagdpanther was the first model I painted. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Hi and thanks for your comment. I'm happy you like the Matchbox models and that's why i'm still building mostly armor models 47 years after i built my first Matchbox model.
One of the first models I built as a child was that Panzer II. I had no skill and just quickly built it. I had no idea it could be such a beautiful model.
@@FTModelsGreece As a kid in the 70's and 80's it amazes me just how far the hobby of modelling has come with alot of kits having photo etch and the amount of after market resin that's available spare tracks etc but I'll never forget the kits I made as a kid.Its nice to see you cover niche kit's in a scale that's not that common anymore doing a great job with them !
Hi Spaceman and thanks for your comment. The Panzer III L is very nice model. The first 5 models i made from Matchbox were the : Panzer II - Wespe - Panzer III - Puma - Humber.
Hi Peter and thanks for your comment. Tomorrow i will go this Matchbox collection in 42nd Nationals Exhibition of I.P.M.S Hellas so the younger ones can see them and the older ones can remember them.
If this was your first video in English then you're doing very well. These were such good kits and that's a nice collection! I don't know if they are still available?
Nice job. Still exists matchbox toy soldiers and vehicles in the market for buying?Is very old sets.And how much money you give to have this,even more to paint?
Very nice models without the modern overdone weathering... beautiful camouflageshemes. Maybe for further Videos to come you can improve the audio by using a microphone.
Hi Leo. I know about this mistake made by Matchbox but mistakes exist in all models from the range. I was only interested in making the models as authentic as possible as they released without any changes.
This is the best work I have seen on the Matchbox kits.👍
Hi Michael and thanks for your comment. I tried for the best result with these Matchbox models. I'm glad you like them.
Fantastic builds of classic kits from my childhood. Thank you. 😊

Very nice job on all of these. I especially loved the bases.

Great work on the models, really nice work on the bases too. Thanks for sharing

Wonderful art work on these kits which bought memories of my childhood when i used to make some of them.
Hi Marc. Thanks for your comment and i'm happy you like the Matchbox models.

Hi. The Matchbox models although they don't have enough detail with good painting and weathering they can be very beautiful in the end.
Nice work, well done. Your English is fine, very understandable and clear.
Hi Mike and thanks for your comment. My English will improve with time but i'm glad you understand.
My favorite Matchbox dioramas! excellent work, perfect colors, incredible how they look! greetings!

They look great! I'm now thinking about building a couple Matchbox kits.
Hi and thanks for your comment. Nice idea to building some Matchbox models.
Thought I'd made all the Matchbox 1/76 German armour over the years but I've missed a couple. Well darn, I'll just have to keep collecting 👍
Hi and thanks for your comment. It's not too late to buy the rest of the Matchbox models.👍
Thinks, brings back memories of childhood. I had the Puma in the 3 colour plastic of the time. =)

Pete the same here. I'm 58 now and i was making these models as a kid ( No Painting only Decals ). Great memories.
Exceptional work bringing the old diorama bases fully up to modern standards!
Hi Mark C and thanks for your comment.
Excellent work!
Hi and thanks for your nice comment.
5:05 the panzer lll was one of my first somewhat successful builds I did when I was seven around 1978 😅
Hi Spaceman and thanks for your comment. The Panzer III L is very nice model. The first 5 models i made from Matchbox were the : Panzer II - Wespe - Panzer III - Puma - Humber.
Really brilliant!!
Hi and thanks for your comment.
Great work.
Hi and thanks for your comment.
What detail on these models and diorama's, pretty cool. I never knew Matchbox made larger models then the normal little ones.
Hi Peter and thanks for your comment. Tomorrow i will go this Matchbox collection in 42nd Nationals Exhibition of I.P.M.S Hellas so the younger ones can see them and the older ones can remember them.
Thanks for This video ! Good job !
Hi, Really nice job with the models. Are you going to do the rest of the Matchbox armoured models. Well done.
Hi Gerard and thanks. Yes i'm slowly making the remaining 16 models.
If this was your first video in English then you're doing very well. These were such good kits and that's a nice collection! I don't know if they are still available?
Hi Robert and thanks for your comment. Most of the Matchbox kits are re - released by Revell.
👍👍
Nice job.
Still exists matchbox toy soldiers and vehicles in the market for buying?Is very old sets.And how much money you give to have this,even more to paint?
Hi. Yes there are still Matchbox kits in stores and on E - bay and most of them are re - released by Revell.
Very nice models without the modern overdone weathering... beautiful camouflageshemes. Maybe for further Videos to come you can improve the audio by using a microphone.
Hi and thanks for your comment and the advice. I have a RODE microphone but i'm still experimenting to find the right sound settings .
Exacto, observé lo mismo, los modelos están perfectamente acabados, sin desgastes de 70 años, así los modelos lucen de maravilla, saludos
Der Panther "G" hat das falsche linke Auspuffrohr! Das mit den beiden Zusatzrohren gab es nur beim "A"
Hi Leo. I know about this mistake made by Matchbox but mistakes exist in all models from the range. I was only interested in making the models as authentic as possible as they released without any changes.
Nice. Had some. Should be still in prod ;-). In general, i ask myself if airbrush is anyhow useful or effective on that small scale.
Hi Marco B and thanks for your comment. I painted all Matchbox models with an Airbrush and the camouflage Freehand.
They reappear from time to time in Revell Germany boxes. I've obtained the Panzer II, Jagdpanther, Comet and Sherman Firefly that way.
Hi J Lalor and thanks for your comment. I know that several of the Matchbox Armor models are released by Revell.
Τα πρώτα που αγόρασα το 1972 με το χαρτζιλίκι μου η ευτυχία μου μεγάλη θυμάμαι 12 δραχμές σαν να λέμε τώρα 10 euro
Καλησπέρα. Καί εγώ τό ίδιο ήταν από τά πρώτα μοντέλα πού αγόρασα όταν ήμουν 12 - 13 χρονών από τό μαγαζί μέ τά ψιλικά τής γειτονιάς.
Σε πιο μέρος ήσουνα όταν τα Πρωταγόρας;
Καλησπέρα. Στό ίδιο μέρος πού είμαι καί τώρα. Παγκράτι - Αθήνα.
