One correction for you. You said that the channel exploded in about a year "because of you guys." No, it exploded because of you. You make some great looking models. Congratulations on the one anniversary! Happy Modeling.
Andy, thanks. I'm about to reenter the armor construction process after about 30 years of being out of it. I'm watching your videos for lessons. Will add extra parts and weathering techniques have changed so much since I was last in the hobby.
I've wanted this kit for some years now and before opening it I watched this. It helped me a lot, the panzer IV is one of my favourite tanks of all time. You helped it look better than I could ever have made it. Thank you.
These tutorials are brilliant Andy....love them, I,ve just started tank modelling as a change from aircraft and yr tank builds are just superb...as are the aircraft
I was just going through TH-cam & I came across your video & wow, that's all I can say. I have been meaning to start making models again, I should explain I had a stroke about 5 years ago & I'm almost because of my legs & my right arm house bound, I do get out but not a lot, so I thought doing models would be a great hobby for me, I am going to get a model & make it, thanks for your video I have made the subscription & paid 1.99 a month to your site so I shall be watching your video from now on,
One of the most beautiful tanks ever build (in real life and modeling). Congrats to your amazing skills and way of explaining and videoing everything. You are my 1st TH-cam choice for military model building.
I've been doing modelling on and off now for years, but since watching your videos you have given my so many ideas on weathering and detail... top work my friend
I have to warn you a little. Many modellers over work weathering. You have to think that the average life time for a tank in WW II was 4 moths counting from the day it left the factory. A lot of tanks went totally new to the front and was killed the first day. Please check the photos you can find from the Battle of Berlin. No of the germans tanks here is looking wearn out at all. Even a photo of an early Tiger I shows the Tiger almost looking new as it left the factory.
Awesome job Andy! Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to produce not just how to videos, but outstanding ones. You are easy to understand and easy to follow. Your demonstrations etc. Your subject matter and diversity of kit manufacturers which has helped us in making our decisions.
Just to let you know that I have started to rerun your videos so that I can keep picking up more great tips on how to improve my technique on weathering painting chipping so thank you for all the help in your video Steve 🇬🇧
Thanks got this one to do but not yet a confident model builder yet as returning to it after several years and also post stroke so not brilliant on hand control....great to have a full tutorial including the painting and paints used....really helpful Thanks
Just got this model and this video was a big help. Don't know if you did, you didn't show it, but having trouble with installing the muffler. Directions aren't very clear and or a flaw in the model itself. Nothing lines up. Thanks for posting Andy. Great job!!!!
I started building models when I was 7 years old and now I'm 56 and still learning. The costs have went sky high and it's a wonder that anyone can afford to build anymore. I love the Tamiya kits but as I said the costs keep me from building as often as I'd like to. I love the video's so keep making them. It must be nice to own a hobby shop cause I always thought that it would be my dream job doing what you liked every day! :-) lol
Another great build. I 'm not sure if my computer's the only one, but I have a mute button if I didn't want the audio portion of the video, rather than moan about it! It's a build video, not Tamiya on Ice. Love watching your painting techniques and I've recently bought my first airbrush - not that I'll be abandoning the brushes completely.
Just got back into making models, it's been at least 10 years since I built anything. Your videos have been a great help. Just built a Panzer 4 and ME 262.
Andy,,love your channel!! I've recently started building models again, and I was going through a lot of channels looking for hints and ideas. Although there's a great deal channels out there, with great hosts. But you are by far the best. I've been watching for a few months now, and I'm learning so many things. You make everything simple and easy, with a lot of great ideas and info. Thanks, and looking forward to the next episode.
Congratulations on the anniversary! Always enjoy watching your videos, especially at work (when I'd rather be home working on a kit). I'm envious of your speed builds - I frequently get hung up on minute details on my own builds and have a hard time keeping up momentum, frequently turning a 1 week build into a month-long odyssey. I like hearing any tips and tricks you have to share, as well as when you demo new gear or techniques.
With all of the positive reviews that I find about your store and your skills I have decided to try my hand once again. Because I respect you and will be using your video as an instruction manual I would appreciate it if I could purchase EVERYTHING I need from your store and have you ship them to me Fed Ex. I mean EVERYTHING, kit, paints, a good durable quality airbrush, weathering supplies, and a set of those metal tracks you used on the late Panther. Any additional detailing pieces would be great too.. Thankyou
Really enjoy watching your videos Andy and get inspiration even over the pond in Scotland. Always liked the P4 in all its guises. I have the older Panzer 4D in my stash but these two look fab and so will have to look into adding to my collection.
wow andy! i just ordered tamiya pz iv h literally half an hour ago and you put this video out, you're cool man. i know this is panzer iv j, but it is the same thing basically, sans the shurzen and some vision ports Andy, you are THE man!
@@norwayitalo , it is "Dovregubbens Hall" it's basicly about trolls waking up ,starting to feel alive then it's one helluva "party" after a long sleep..
Just got a panzer 2 from tamiya. ( not going amazingly but it is me and I’m a bit of a noob.) thanks this video is really helping wish. me luck in hopefully saving my tank.
Panzer IV was like a first love that I couldn't get swept out of my mind since childhood days and I bought and build this Tamiya Panzzer IV just 2 year ago just as a redeeming purpose.
Andy, I enjoyed this video, as I'm preparing to do this build. It will be replacing my Dragon Pzkpfw IVJ that I backdated to be an early version, that I did as a Finnish Panzer 4. Its a great prep video.
Andy....PLEASE TRY TAMYIA HULL RED for your track color instead of wasting time and paint on mixing ! Ive been using it for years and turns out beautifully. same shade !!
Hi Andy, I've been watching some of your videos and I've also subscribed to your channel. Making models was a hobby of mine when I was younger, but sadly currently I don't have much time and money to spare for this hobby. But, I still find watching channels like yours very entertaining and informative. I hope one day I'll be able to pick up the hobby once again. In the meantime, keep up the good work. I wish you all the best for your channel and your store. Cheers!
I agree I like the Tamiya for the ease of building , more parts don't always make a better kit , plus the Tamiya is half the price. I still like Dragon for the Zimmerit just has to be something different for me to want to build.
I build cars and they have to be painted with so much precision, but the weathering and all the details here are very interesting, almost make me shift my hobby !
Hi Andy, Congratulations on the stats to date, you seem to be a happy man with them. As always another great build, do keep up the excellent work. Happy building, Les
Thanks for all the information and help. I wish you could be my local shop. The hobby shops in my area just don't get it. I am about to paint my 1/16th RC Tiger Tank ....wish me luck. I have learned all my airbrushing from you.
Excellent video! Keep up the great work. I am not sure how many air brushes you have experience with but an airbrush review video would be pretty cool. Of course this is for selfish reasons as I am looking to upgrade but cannot decide on which to buy! Thanks!
Another good video Andy , and another well finished model . in my opinion the tamiya model is better as there is no point having twice the number of parts as in the dragon kit to achieve the same result. keep the great videos coming
hi andy when you built your panzer in this ideo you left of your tow cable and i am having trouble with mine. are you able to help me out with a video or just let me know how to attach it.
Hi there Andy if you have problems with your rubber band type tracks try deluxe materials tricky stick part No AC17 it makes CA stick anything keep up the good work just found your video this week

Honestly every video are top 3 building videos on net. I like watching these very much
I personally think the classical music really represent the relaxation of building scale models.
I absolutely agree.
Congrats ! Blessings , and may the good Lord be with you and your loved ones 👍👍
Been building since I was 8 years old, (I'm 56 now), and I really enjoy your videos, especially the painting and weathering.
That's great, thank you for watching
im 12 years old boy from Finland and i try to make gold model kits and you (Andy) have been help me to make my models much better
One correction for you. You said that the channel exploded in about a year "because of you guys." No, it exploded because of you. You make some great looking models. Congratulations on the one anniversary! Happy Modeling.
Thank you, that is very kind of you to say.

Thank you Andy! Enjoy visiting you, and buying from your shop, in Glendale Arizona.

Andy your videos and builds are incredible. "We" are lucky to have you sir. Thank you for all of your videos and advise.
After market side skirts ... that is very fitting to how the Pz IV was developed with constant modifications added, often in the field.
this is one nice and useful video as it shows paints used to finish the model, thank you
I wonder if anyone giving a thumbs down can actually do a better job; and as modestly and unpretentious as the presenter. Awesome work!
日本では作りやすいキットの定番だと思います。ドイツの軍馬で主力戦車とは！これまた、いいね👍
thank you for the time you take to show us great hint and tips, Thank you
So glad I found this channel. It is awesome.
I made this before while I was still 8. It was the most funnest kits I’ve ever built. I’m 9 and I do higher stage kits
Another great build. I 'm not sure if my computer's the only one, but I have a mute button if I didn't want the audio portion of the video, rather than moan about it!

A fine build.
These videos are great and very informative. Fun to watch
When are you going to build a 1:1 scale Panzer?
Lmao...
LOL
If i get enough money i will do it
Why not a 1:1 scale Bismarck. That’d be EASY
Lmao
wow andy! i just ordered tamiya pz iv h literally half an hour ago and you put this video out, you're cool man.
i know this is panzer iv j, but it is the same thing basically, sans the shurzen and some vision ports
Andy, you are THE man!
thank you
Greeting from Hong Kong. I've watched most of your videos, they are all great and very informative. Keep up the great work.
Great video as always Andy. Keep them coming
honest to god you have the best model building channel on TH-cam. thank you for putting forth such a amazing effort.
Thank you , that is very nice of you to say
Building the same Tamiya Mk IV, making mine Syrian army from the 19 60's. Another great video, like to see you
build Hobby boss T 35 late. Thank you!
Amazing, Andy!
Andy, could you possibly do a German half track build.
Great suggestion I just bought one Tamiya and it be awesome 👍👍
Very good build! Can you build a king tiger?
I love these videos. I hope the shop makes money!
Panzer IV nice job. Paint is great!
"Hall of the Mountain King" is one of my favorite classical songs lol. I also like "Ride of the Valkyries" (then again, who doesn't).

Hi Andy. Always enjoy your videos
A good tipp: You can also take used brush thinner to create an authentic vintage look.
Just got a panzer 2 from tamiya. ( not going amazingly but it is me and I’m a bit of a noob.) thanks this video is really helping wish. me luck in hopefully saving my tank.
nice kit an looks really good even got good sag with rubber band type track cool
Thank you for watching
Panzer IV was like a first love that I couldn't get swept out of my mind since childhood days and I bought and build this Tamiya Panzzer IV just 2 year ago just as a redeeming purpose.
It was always my favorite tank when I was young

Thank you Walter

thanks like your work
Nice Job Andy I have this kit and may have to build it now after seeing yours
Wow nice panzer I have been I the store for that kit
Great rusting technique!
My favorite tank, not favorite but quintessential in my mind!

If you build a second of these at a later date, Tamiya makes a GREAT zimmerit aplique set.
Please explain the circular swirlig airbrush technique. I thought linear side to side was best.
this kit in my opinion is better than dragons...its quick and easy and turns out very nice...i built one
welp dragon kit is very detailed but it is pretty hard
yes i know i built a few..but tamiya is more easier
I agree I like the Tamiya for the ease of building , more parts don't always make a better kit , plus the Tamiya is half the price. I still like Dragon for the Zimmerit just has to be something different for me to want to build.
tamiya isn't even in the same league as dragon.dragons kits are superior by far.
Great Build and superb paint job as always, well done Andy.
Thank you
I build cars and they have to be painted with so much precision, but the weathering and all the details here are very interesting, almost make me shift my hobby !

Great vid, you make it all look so easy.
Thank you
Another great job Andy!
