I am impressed by how Quickly you are able to build such high quality models! I'm 68 and just started building models again. since I discovered your videos I bought some of the kits you built but I must say that it takes me much longer to build a kit and yours look a whole lot better!
Hi Andy, I enjoyed the build of the E100 Krokodil, I'm not really a fan of 'paper' tanks, but could see myself building either of these tanks, it was really good to see the two track pieces, I myself have a couple of WWII German helmets. Cheers mate, Les
E-100 was a real project, jagdpanzer E-100 wasn't planned and just a 'what if'. Mr Hilary Doyle, the expert on German tanks labelled this one as a fake. The build is great tho and I love the looks of it, but I just want to say that it can go beside your UFO ;) and that the internet isn't always right.
the E-100 Chassis has been made but if they would have done the turret (the planned turret) it would have been to heavy and the chassis would break down so they decidet to plan another project wich also was a failure because the war already enden when it was supposed to be reay to fight
since the E100 was a real project, converting it to a tankdestroyer wouldn't have been a big challenge, it would haven been the same concept they used to make cheaper versions, with compareable effectiveness, with every chassis.
Great video. I have built this kit also, and it went together without any problems. As form the tracks, I also did not care too much for the rubber tracks. trumpeter does offer individual link-n-length racks for this kit, as well as, the E-100. Bought a set and used those instead - much better detail.
I think the Jagdpanzer E-100 looks a lot nicer without these side skirts over the chains! Is one of my absolute favorites among the tank destroyers! Very nice model.
I have just built the jagdpanther 2 what if tank that this took its place! It's a beautiful kit just way to put the metal tracks together fornthe jagdpanther 2 tank destroyer!
Another great video. I want to thank you. I always look forward each week to what your going to build' I have difficult time building due to a stroke. Your videos give me a sense of determination to continue building.
Mr. Andy your a nut. That statement about making a workout video using the track sections was funny. But seriously, besides making great assembly vid's I like the fact that you give a bit of a history lesson as well. For instance I'm very familiar with the Jag (Hunter) version of the Panther, but I never heard of the Krokodil, one of the reasons I viewed this vid. Thanks for the lesson.
Ebay and places. They cost hundreds to thousands of dollars, depending on the type, plus you gotta ship them from Estonia etc. Adam Mann did a video about tank tracks and shows his collection.
that track is interesting, i wonder why the King Tiger had so many of its side panels removed, maybe they were they were too heavy to lift back on after replacing track links, so the crew could fed up with them and left then on the ground, it would interesting to know how thick the steel was, maybe 10mm or more.
Im seeing many folks assemble first then paint after on tanks... I get why this is, but, what about other models? What are the opinions regarding paint before, during or after? Is there a protocol most follow or do you just do what you do the way you do it...?
loved the ' show and tell' Andy . great work as always. I look forward to seeing your video builds every week , please don't stop and make workout videos 😅
I was very excited when I heard you say "We're going to do a little streaking" only to be grossly disappointed. I was expecting a different kind of streaking.
i was wondering if the table would give way. also you have some buzzing on the video. but another great build. strange i have also been working on the Jagdpanzer E 100 3d model for printing. :)
Andy, after seeing the rough texture of the surface of real tracks in person, have you considered using something like Mr. Surfacer on future tracks? I'd be curious to see if that enhances the realism even further than you already have on all of your models.
Came across your channel by chance looking up videos of T-90s, and I liked it so much that I purchased a Tamiya T-62 kit along with some tools I've seen you use in videos. Really looking forward to it!
You would be surprised at how real you can make vinyl tracks look with the right amount of sag pinning and weathering. I have a few with vinyl and they look just as good as any plastic or white metal separate track piece kit.
Hey Andy, I haven't built any armor kits yet and was wondering which would be an easier kit to start; the Takom P1000 ratte or the Tamiya M4A3E8 "Easy Eight" Sherman. Thanks from me up in Alaska!
Hi Andy. Love your videos. You are great with the free hand camo painting. Could you please list what air brush you are using, needle size and pressure settings to get that pinpoint accuracy without all the over-spray? Hope you get this because every time I learn from one of your videos, I have these questions about your brush technique and equipment.
What did you use to seal the paintjob so you could start weathering? Sometimes when I want to weather with a thinner the paintjob would start coming off so I have to go for the harder way to do it.
hey I'm new to this kind of stuff and I was wondering is there any company that makes model tank kits with the parts pre painted? I don't have the skill or patience to do it I would just explode from the pressure. the building part I can handle, and what is the cheapest brand possible that is fairly accurate? sorry for bothering you with all these questions, I just have a large interest in starting a model tank collection.
@Deadlyman 8 Done that and evbay and the net. Apparently Trumpeter makes a 1/72 scale Jagdpanzer and I can find a barrel for that. They do make one for the Amusing Hobby !/35 Jagdpanzer. I wonder if that would fit?
@Deadlyman 8 NP Just putting it out their. Just wondering if anyone had found one that works. I have this kit sitting in my stash Just looking for a barrel for it
This is a really pretty cool tank. Great job Andy. I was wondering if you were ever going to do any other builds? How about a car or a plane or something different now and again? Thanks for sharing...
The size of that Tiger track link is incredible.
Honeslty.
And to think an e100 track would probably have been at least 50% bigger...
yeah i don't think he can lift that ;)
that is probably why the larger tanks such as the Maus, didnt actually go into production. Large, Difficult to maneuver, Expensive.
yes bu the piece he has was only half
Amusing Hoby tanks got me back into modeling. nice work Andy
I love the German tank prototypes of late World War II I'm glad that they're making models of them
I am impressed by how Quickly you are able to build such high quality models! I'm 68 and just started building models again. since I discovered your videos I bought some of the kits you built but I must say that it takes me much longer to build a kit and yours look a whole lot better!
Andy your an older mans role model. Thank you.

One more tank a never heard of and u nailed it
Nice build Andy, thanks!

The build is great tho and I love the looks of it, but I just want to say that it can go beside your UFO ;) and that the internet isn't always right.
Doyle isn't the 'expert' many claim he is. He was caught flat out making shit up about German night vision being useless.
Okay, didn't know that. But I still don't believe that jagdpanzer E-100 was a real concept.
the E-100 Chassis has been made but if they would have done the turret (the planned turret) it would have been to heavy and the chassis would break down so they decidet to plan another project wich also was a failure because the war already enden when it was supposed to be reay to fight
Did not know that there are already plastic models from WoT XD
since the E100 was a real project, converting it to a tankdestroyer wouldn't have been a big challenge, it would haven been the same concept they used to make cheaper versions, with compareable effectiveness, with every chassis.
As always Andy, great build and video, with the bonus of seeing original tank parts. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I have built this kit also, and it went together without any problems. As form the tracks, I also did not care too much for the rubber tracks. trumpeter does offer individual link-n-length racks for this kit, as well as, the E-100. Bought a set and used those instead - much better detail.
the details you put into it! amazing work
WOW Those tracks are BIG!!
Another great vid Andy, I love the tank tracks, more stuff like this please, history lesson and model making, perfect, cheers.
I play World of Tanks , so that said , I really enjoy your tank building and knowledge.
I think the Jagdpanzer E-100 looks a lot nicer without these side skirts over the chains!
Is one of my absolute favorites among the tank destroyers!
Very nice model.
Great kit Andy, i used the metal barrel on mine. Also used Spade Ace tracks and Atak zimmerit set
Another nice build Andy
I have just built the jagdpanther 2 what if tank that this took its place! It's a beautiful kit just way to put the metal tracks together fornthe jagdpanther 2 tank destroyer!
man this is an amazing paper design
Another great video. I want to thank you. I always look forward each week to what your going to build' I have difficult time building due to a stroke. Your videos give me a sense of determination to continue building.
Nice a real tank track
This is a well done video. I wasn t aware you cold built german tanks without too laud marching music.
another great Modellreview!
greetings from germany
Mr. Andy your a nut. That statement about making a workout video using the track sections was funny. But seriously, besides making great assembly vid's I like the fact that you give a bit of a history lesson as well. For instance I'm very familiar with the Jag (Hunter) version of the Panther, but I never heard of the Krokodil, one of the reasons I viewed this vid. Thanks for the lesson.
I think the Krokodil is another fictional E-series Jagdpanzer on the E-75 or also fictional E-90 chassis.
Panzermeister36 it is, yes.
btw you are making great videos!
Thanks!
this variant was planned and genuine blueprints were found
Yes, but what I said was that the Krokodil is something else, and that something else is fictional. This is not the Krokodil.
Can I get a source on those blueprints? I've seen one with the gun and mount, but the hull is not included.
I saw something about a trumpeter maus with interior coming out soon, great build by the way, think I prefer the jagdpanzer e100.
where do you get the real tank tracks from? I want one!
Ebay and places. They cost hundreds to thousands of dollars, depending on the type, plus you gotta ship them from Estonia etc. Adam Mann did a video about tank tracks and shows his collection.
There is a pair on links on ebay for 899. I think it was\
So yeah good luck.
RIP Wallet
yeah, i am trying to get a panzer's optical viewing glass for the commander compartment or the panzer division ring
Sick One Dude!
Nice one Andy👍🇳🇿
lovely! well done !
Looks futuristic.
"Paper Panzers." Love it.
Great job!
is it possibly to use water has thinner when doing the streaking effect?
you should try paint and prime and sand before assembly . i also recommend "green stuff" putty and small magnets for part swapping. great video!
that track is interesting, i wonder why the King Tiger had so many of its side panels removed, maybe they were they were too heavy to lift back on after replacing track links, so the crew could fed up with them and left then on the ground, it would interesting to know how thick the steel was, maybe 10mm or more.
What is the part number for the RB barrel that will fit this kit?
Jagdpanther: Who are you?
E100 Krokodil: Im you but I forgot to hit the gym.
Any recommendations for easy tank models for beginners?
MisterAxeMan one of Tamiya's Sherman kits, for example their M4 early production. it has some small parts, but it goes together well and is cheap.
very nice build Andy the friuls will give you a pain it takes much longer as the whole kit but they look amazing
Im seeing many folks assemble first then paint after on tanks... I get why this is, but, what about other models? What are the opinions regarding paint before, during or after? Is there a protocol most follow or do you just do what you do the way you do it...?
Nice paperweights.
Andy great Build yet again. Ignore the children they only know what games teach them.
Love your vids Andy! I'd love to see you tackle the new mid-production Tiger with full interior from Rye Field.
Will rubber cement work on those tracks?
Has this been built in reality too? I like the slanted armour design.
He said at the start its a paper tank, that means it was only on the drawing board, listen to the video dumbass
Wasnt this having the turelle in the behind part?
Nice build! Where do you get the real track links from? haha
loved the ' show and tell' Andy . great work as always. I look forward to seeing your video builds every week , please don't stop and make workout videos 😅
This design maks much more sense than the one in WOT. There's more space for the crew and the armor is more effective.
Cheers Andy
I was very excited when I heard you say "We're going to do a little streaking" only to be grossly disappointed. I was expecting a different kind of streaking.
What's with the different jagdpanzer E-100 designs
I know Im late but can you build it purely stock?
22:49 wont that screw up the wheels if you apply that while the tracks are still attached to the tank?
What is the buff that you put on it, is it a wash or very thinned paint?
buff paint, sprayed from a distance (2 feet)
Do you need to mask off the tracks or do you spray them too?
i was wondering if the table would give way. also you have some buzzing on the video. but another great build. strange i have also been working on the Jagdpanzer E 100 3d model for printing. :)
Andy, after seeing the rough texture of the surface of real tracks in person, have you considered using something like Mr. Surfacer on future tracks? I'd be curious to see if that enhances the realism even further than you already have on all of your models.
those tracks haven't been used in 70 years. they are coated in rust. in real life a tank's tracks would never get the opportunity to rust.
Came across your channel by chance looking up videos of T-90s, and I liked it so much that I purchased a Tamiya T-62 kit along with some tools I've seen you use in videos. Really looking forward to it!
Is that tamiya redbrown and nato green straight?
Nice , have you built any of the Modelcollect range !
You would be surprised at how real you can make vinyl tracks look with the right amount of sag pinning and weathering. I have a few with vinyl and they look just as good as any plastic or white metal separate track piece kit.
can you also build the e 50 would be realy nice to the e collection and that Tiger track is big;)
i like the WoT version of Jagdpanzer E100
Really like your videos was thinking that a challenger 2 would look good next your Abrams
great work Andy now I can't decide between this and the E100 great built tho 10/10 also that tiger track is huge where did you get it?
Great video Andy. would you be able to tell us how much those tracks weigh? Also plesse do a video on installing the metal tracks and painting them.
15:39 it looks great in black
Another nice one :)
Hey Andy, I haven't built any armor kits yet and was wondering which would be an easier kit to start; the Takom P1000 ratte or the Tamiya M4A3E8 "Easy Eight" Sherman. Thanks from me up in Alaska!
Thanks!
Hi Andy. Love your videos. You are great with the free hand camo painting.

try to make the jpz e100 that is used in wot if possible
Tristan Erno it does because the engine would be in the front and the fighting compartment is in the back. it would have been a better design
Damian Moody I don't think that exists in a model
That tank isn't even real; it was made for World of Tanks.
Panzermeister36 so what
So that's why there are no kits of it
awesome!!!!!!!!!
They were so ahead of their time.
As far as I know Trumpeter has individual Track links for the E-100 in their product line
Great build really wish you were based here in Scotland lol your store looks amazing. What colour do you use for your scratching effect?
What did you use to seal the paintjob so you could start weathering?
Sometimes when I want to weather with a thinner the paintjob would start coming off so I have to go for the harder way to do it.
we need that in WoT
No War Thunder and WoT
Where’s all the tool and spare track links that seem to festoon all tracked armor vehicles? 😊
Looks like the Jagdpanther but bigger lol
Where do u get those.??
Great paint job, but that would have been one strange looking tank.
How come these looks different from the 2 tanks in WoT? Slightly different models of the same tanks ?
researched a little, STUG E100 and E100 Krokodil ^^
Hey Andy what's the model sitting on the Me-262 above your right shoulder?
Could you give a totorial on how to build the 1/35 scale waffentager auf E-100 from amusing hobby
hey I'm new to this kind of stuff and I was wondering is there any company that makes model tank kits with the parts pre painted? I don't have the skill or patience to do it I would just explode from the pressure. the building part I can handle, and what is the cheapest brand possible that is fairly accurate? sorry for bothering you with all these questions, I just have a large interest in starting a model tank collection.
@Andy's Hobby Headquarters
Hey Andy, does your store have a website that we can buy things from your store on?
Hi guys I have a question : Where is the model avaible?? Please give me a link to buy it. Greetings from the country where Crocodile was drawne.
Hi, what color did you use ( tamiya green and brown )
Does anyone know of an After Market barrel for this kit? I seen one for the 1/72 scale version but not 1/35
@Deadlyman 8 Done that and evbay and the net. Apparently Trumpeter makes a 1/72 scale Jagdpanzer and I can find a barrel for that. They do make one for the Amusing Hobby !/35 Jagdpanzer. I wonder if that would fit?
@Deadlyman 8 NP Just putting it out their. Just wondering if anyone had found one that works. I have this kit sitting in my stash Just looking for a barrel for it
Nice video! +1 like
why do you first paint it black, then white and then camo ?
This is a really pretty cool tank. Great job Andy. I was wondering if you were ever going to do any other builds? How about a car or a plane or something different now and again? Thanks for sharing...
Im properly just stupid but that song that Andy plays while he is building the tank. What is it called
where do i buy these models
tell me please, what company produce best model by quality? sorry for my english
Do you use a editing software
Andy love the videos and the back ground music and do you have a retell website and if so what is the address
do you have an online store?
