Thanks for posting. I'm retired and live on a fixed income and unfortunately I can't afford to pay for your patron account but I enjoy seeing your videos. I didn't know that AK INTERACTIVE made jungle plants. I enjoy seeing the process of how you do the photo etch as well as the colors.
Heavenly sent thia video! I needed some tips how to make a junglescene as I am doing both the M48 and the M113 ans want to give them that lush jungle feeling. Thank you for showing how did it. Also, great you showed the H3 figures as I was not sure how good they would look in real life.
I love this menacing and ridiculously armed futuristic looking weapon. My uncle in 'Nam said: "The Ontos were the only tracked vehicle worth two f**ks in that God forsaken country!" Thanks again Rick, I've been digging you since your old articles in various modeling mags. Seems so short ago, but the years add up. Also, belated congrats on your award winning build (the Camp build) really needed historical subject. Amazing work as always.
Ontos was quite effective if used like a disappearing coastal gun. Load in a protected location, dart out into the open to fire, and retreat into the protected location to reload. Kind of useless in the desert.

Glad to hear it!
Awesome work Rick. The tank. The crew. The terrain. Great skills you have.
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed the build.
Gorgeous job. Amazing. Because of you I am very hooked on many AK products.
Glad you're enjoying their products!
Fantastic work as always Rick! The groundwork is especially inspirational to me...I will have to get some of those AK laser cut leaves and trees.
Thank you. Always nice to hear from you.

Thanks for the kind words.
Amazing and always like seeing some soldering involved. Still improving my ability there.
Glad you enjoyed the show.
Beautiful Rick!
Appreciate it.
Superb diorama, love the atmospheric base!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
This was a great weapon during the battle of Hue City. Up close and personal.
A Hue urban scene was my original idea, but I just couldn't get the proper layout and so I went with jungle.
Great Job!
Thanks!
Nice job, Rick. Is the bamboo the same way you made it for the other diorama you did a while back?
Yes, the same bamboo as done on the M3 Lee.
Looks great!
Thanks!
Good scene, great characters. Well done 👍

Are those H3 figures? You did a good job with them
Yes, H3 Figures. Thanks for watching
The best show
Not sure about that!!! Thanks for the compliment.

Yep, pretty nifty weapon.
That was cool.
Thanks.
Professional
Semi-professional at best!! Thanks.
Wow!!!!! 😮😯😲😳👍🎖
thanks!
Awesome, but no one shows how to make bamboo trees and it would have been nice. Too fast.
I have already shown and described making the trees in a prior video/series (M3 Lee). Check out Episode 5: th-cam.com/video/sZa__wb7ajg/w-d-xo.html
