This is an absolutely fantastic presentation. It is a really good walk-through, and very useful for me as I have to build a bridge for a future diorama using XPS foam.
Just found this by a random search, and well worth the stay to its conclusion...outstanding work! Following a build in detail takes a commitment to the vision and the skills of a true craftsman; you represent it very well. Thanks for taking the time to share it with the rest of us.
Thank you so much for this kind comment. 🙏😊 I'm glad it could be useful. The hardest part is not to speak too much...😂 it's so hard to sum up big projects in a matter of minutes 🤯😁🤣 I guess I still need to work more on that....😉
@@18thsquadlab In my opinion, the commentary should not only specifically describe the current work but make the listener aware of content that may help during other builds: you presented both very well.
Wow! What a wonderful job! Not only the handcraft part, especially your detailed explanations during the Video are very, very, worthful. The table with the XPS foam properties and corresponding explanations is also something that is never shown in other (even good) tutorials. Thank you for that outstanding video! Greetings from Germany, Thomas
Thank you so much Thomas. 🙏🙏 yes I really wanted to explain everything for young people starting in scale modelling. 😊 on the other hand, it's difficult to keep vídeo duration within acceptable limits...😁🤣
Thank you Dan. 🙏😉 you're a lucky boy 😁 it's a real pain in the a... to find it here and it's such an interesting product for scale modelling....😁 I finally bought a big stock to face the immediate requirement 🤣
@@18thsquadlab For our kids theater we use the same material for life sized scenery. We had to find a bulk supplier but it is an amazing product. I can build a stone wall that a couple of kids can move and handle without issue.
Muito obrigado Rafael 😊🙏 só pooso esperar que vai regressar à bancada. 😊 e se fosse por causa de mim, estou ainda mais feliz.🎉🎉🎉 modelismo é uma atividade tão boa...❤ boa continuação com o seu projecto 😉🤙
Hi Val You’ve done a fantastic job once again mate! Your diorama is going to be awesome when you get it all finished!! I love your work and techniques. I’m really looking forward to watching your next segment my friend. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤😊
Hi Michael, hi Australia ❤ Many thanks for this encouraging comment. 🙏🙏 I'm also looking forward to achieving it 😅 I guess the more time-consuming step is the sculpting phase I'm now facing. Let's keep the rhythm 😁😁 Kind regards 🙏🤙
Val Absolutely fantasic detailing and a perfect lesson in construction. You have a huge job on your hands but this is going to be a winner I can see. Looking forward to the next part. Really great work my friend. Thank you so much for sharing. Steve.
Thanks Steve. 🙏🙏 I'm also learning in real time so it's good sharing. 😉 The things I feared the most are done and behind me so all the remaining stuffs are just working hours to bring it to an end. 😁 Be patient for the next episode, I still have 3.000.000.000.000 stones to sculpt 🤣🤣🤣
Moin That's awesome. It's amazing what you've built so far. Simply brilliant. I'm already looking forward to the next instalments Greetings Olli from the Bastel Bude 1/35
Salut l'ami, sacré projet dans lequel tu te lances ! Je suis déjà admiratif du travail que tu as accompli ! Quelle précision dans la conception et la réalisation du pont ! Chapeau. "Le soldat Ryan" est un film culte pour moi. Je ne compte plus le nombre de fois où je l'ai vu et il me tarde de voir ton projet achevé. Vivement la première vidéo !
Salut David, c'est gentil.🙏 Pareil pour moi, mon film préféré sur le sujet. Réalisation magnifique même si certaines petites limitations techniques ont impliqués des petits écarts à la réalité historique. 😊 Pas facile de trouver un vrai Tigre 1 encore en état 😁 C'est un gros projet mais on prend le temps nécessaire et on apprend beaucoup. 🤙 moi aussi j'ai hâte de voir ça fini 😁
c'est du superbe travail , mais vous vous trompez en indiquant que vous utilisez du mastic époxy Tamiya , le mastic époxy est à deux composants . Votre mastic est de type standard ou "basic" comme c'est indiqué sur le tube 😉 merci pour cette vidéo bien explicite et pour toutes les astuces partagées .
Merci Mathieu pour votre commentaire 🙏👍 vous avez tout à fait raison, petite erreur de ma part. Si je n'oublie pas je ferais la correction au début de la prochaine vidéo. 😊🙏
I made a German attack on a railyard in Stalingrad diorama. I went and bought some O scale track, popped the metal rail of the plasting sleepers and then made balsa sleepers and laid the track. The scale is close enough that no one cares. Cheap and easy.
Fully agree 👍 it's much nicer with balsa sleepers. In my project, only a little part of some sleepers will be visible so I've had less work and I just focused on these visible segments 😁 I try to win time where possible 🤣
Well, as a retired railway engineer I can assure you that no standard gauge railroad is running over a bridge curve like this one, only Trolleys or extreme narrow gauge (2 ft ) did that in Europe. @18thsquadlab
Excellent work! This will make for an excellent diorama when it is done! Now your only decision is whether to model a historical scene, or showing the movie being made. Though that could be an interesting idea with camera and production crew figures in addition to the actors in US Army uniforms; modifying a T-34/85 into an ersatz Tiger would be a project even more extensive than the bridge itself! In any case, you are superb modeler! 269th like.
Many thanks, it's very kind of you 🙏🙏 I like maintaining a bit of self freedom in my work so it will be a mix of the movie (as a support) but trying to bring an additional touch of historical reality (to some extent, like the Tiger 1). The bridge colour will also be different for example, to match the original Normandy architecture. That bridge was coloured to match director's wish and to produce a specify color edition for the movie 😊 the idea of reproducing the movie set-up with the cameras and so on could also be an awesome option....😉🤙
Great work mate...I really like the sculpting of stones and details...would not be easier to buy the mini art set of cobblestone with railway section ?you made an enormous job on this part...waiting now for the second part 😉👌
Many thanks mate 🙏 I know this set but the fitting with the rest of the bridge structure looked very hard. The bridge here is about 85cm x 22cm 😁 it's a rather big stuff and it's not flat. It's for sure a big project but it offers me many new challenges to cope with and I'm learning a lot. 😉 it's a good way to become autonomous a become able to produce anything you need by yourself. I just have now many hours of work ahead... 😅 luckily, I can enjoy my Spotify playlists to stay zen.... 🤣🤣🤣
By using 1/35 th scale, you limit yourself to using plastic model vehicles and troops- which you must assemble. If you use 1/32 (54mm) scale, you can use assembled vehicles and troops from various makers. You'd have a much wider variety as well.
0:24 this Abnormaly of a "Tank" precise a "PzKpfW VI Tiger 1" With Tracks from a T-34/85 is Laughable at Best. I Dont Like this movie Because of thoses Frankenstein Tank fakes...
🤣🤣🤣 that's the reason why I decided to go for a full Tiger 1 specimen which had really fought during the Normandy campaign . It was too ugly for me to create this hybrid thing 🤣🤣
I wouldn't worry too much about it. When I was ten years old in 1970, my dad took me to see the movie "Patton" with George C. Scott. In that movie, American made Spanish Army M47 and M48 Patton tanks were 'cast' to portray both Allied Shermans and Axis Panzers. I had been building models for around four years by then, and had just built the 1/35 scale Monogram M48, so I could tell that something wasn't quite right. (And don't get me started on the M7 self-propelled howitzer 'cast' to portray a Tiger Tank in an episode of "Hogan's Heroes" that was made five years earlier.) Back in the day we knew how to actively suspend our disbelief to enjoy the movie because we were aware of these practical limitations. I suspect that future movies will make extensive use of CGI and AI to recreate more historically accurate hardware right down to the accurate color of raw, chipped Zimmerit. I mean, if Hollywood can make all that stuff for "Star Wars" by CGI, then why not an entire Panzer Division of realistic Tiger Tanks? And in any case, you have to admit that this scratch built XPS foam Ramelle bridge is excellent work! And the builder has plenty of 1/35 Tiger Tank kits to choose from.
@modelermark172 thanks 🙏😉 you're right, they are already inserting more and more digital airplanes in Hollywood movies, I guess it's a bit more work for tanks because of Interaction with terrain, ground features and actors but it will become a standard 😉 why not if it's realistic...😊
