- This is part 1 in a 2 part series of building Wittmann's 1331 from the battle of Kursk. I used Cyber-Hobby 9142 (slightly modified) and AFV Club workable tracks. This is a buddy build with my good friend Shane Smyth on Kursk Tigers.
I explain the particular features I chose and why on this build, and for the most part stick to the traditional idea that Wittmann's Tiger was a later delivered early (April) with spare tracks on the turret and later Feifels.
Special thanks to David Byrden for his assistance.

Can't believe how clean your workplace is :) Thank you for uploading!
SUPERBBBBBB!!!! Was fascinated with this build, Adam.... from the very beginning to the very last frame. This should be compulsory viewing for anyone contemplating a Tiger build, Dragon's OR any other kitmaker's, come to that. Found the expert commentary 'overlay', and picking out points of particular note or interest really helpful and a very informative production technique, too. Seems like almost nothing lost in the speeded-up process, yet covered the entire build from start to finish, in a very 'watchable' and 'holds the viewer's interest' manner. Saluté, Adam. This one, and part 2 will be viewed and returned to MANY times, and by no means, only by me!! Cheers, Adam. (Mark from the UK) 👍👍👍👍
+Mark Pearce Oh man, thanks very much. I put a ton of work in to this so it means a lot to hear something like that.
Ad-man, Mark has said it perfectly buddy. Please, keep them coming my friend.
Chris.
As Mark said below, captivated from first to last frame, thank you for sharing.
Great video! . I like your commentary during the build and found the tips to be very informative. Thanks for posting!
+michael green Thanks very much.
Great vid, looking forward to part 2.
+SwampCabbageMan Thanks
Love this speed build video Adam! really great stuff!!
Thank you very much
Awesome Adam...very very helpful!!!
Great video Adam, enjoyed it. Good idea with the commentary as it's always good to hear others techniques and approach.
I like your solution for the clasps.....nice clean build too.
+milky55way2012 Thanks you very much. I hope I don't mess it up in the later stages.
Great video and build. Look forward to the next part
+dalton vickers Thanks Dalton, should be fun.
Awesome build. I really enjoyed it very much and learnt a lot. I have never watched so far a build that is so explanatory not only visually but also verbally! Cheers.
+wavelet1966 Thank you very much, It takes a lot to put something like this together, but the hope was that it would show people exactly how I do things.
+Adam Mann Looking forward to part II. Best.
very nice Adam , looking forward to the part 2 👍
+Panzerbuilder Thank you, me too.
love the video speed and your building sequence, congrats man!
+waffencamo Thank you.
Adam you have the patience of a saint. Very nice model indeed. You obviously have done many of these and you have many useful tips, thank you for sharing.
Thanks, You'd be surprised how few I have done. I only started in January of 2015.
Adam really enjoyed your build so far, looking forward to part two.
+Paul Inge Thank you very much.
Outstanding job just amazing.
+Sam McDonald Thank you very much.
Looks like a nice kit, and very well put together. TFS, G :)
A while ago I build Wittmann's 007, building a Wittmann Tiger is interesting project! Awesome to share your build with us, i'm looking forward to part 2!
+RollingThunderModels I plan to build 007 and eventually 205. It's a weird feeling letting other people watch you build something.
I would love to see you build them!
*****
it will happen. I have the kits.
very nice Adam, we all build our own way, and we tweak here and there, but there are sometimes when you really learn something new and you have to say thanks. so thanks. as always you do it right, very nice.
+Clayton McClain Thanks Clayton, I do things my own way for sure, hopefully I don't look too silly.
Adam, excellent work and I agree with Panzermeister your video is informative and enjoyable to watch. I to have never thought about cutting some parts to make the fit and look better. looking forward to your next video, keep up the good work.
+Daryl G. Thank you very much. I'm already recording a few.
Congratulation Adam, very clean build!
+Luca Bonaiti Thank you.
Nice work Adam, the buddy is well and truly on the way, keep it up :)
+Shane Smyth Thanks Shane. waiting on part 2 of yours.
Adam Mann tis getting there its just the tracks :P
its cool to see how you approach that, very interesting :)
+Hamilkar Barkas I suppose it's like exposing yourself a bit, letting everyone see how oddly you might build. Pretty different than you in some ways.
Thanks Mr. Mann, Its nice to watch a build.
+D Swedish my pleasure.
one quick question, how long does it take you to build from opening the box till completed, the model, not the opening of the box itself.
This one only took probably 2 weeks. But that's with a full time job and doing it on camera. You can build up a Dragon kit like this in a few days if you don't have other things to get to.
I have over 50 Dragon kits. And only started to build late last year. I'm in no hurry to finish them all. Just was interested in how long the average took.
Thanks my friend.
Very clean build Adam. Nicely done I look forward to seeing you get some paint on it.
+TacticalJackalope Thanks Andy, we'll see how soon I can get to that. Been pretty busy.
Adam Mann I gathered as much. Haven't heard from you in a while. Had a full plate myself.
That was awesome
Very nice build.
+Tiger1AuasfE Thanks.
Great video!👍
+1/35 SCALE BETTER Thank you.
I don't usually watch these half-hour-long or more videos in one sitting, but I do when watching yours. Very well done, fun to watch, and I learned some great tips! I'd never thought of that method where you chop up the clamps and kit tools to get them to fit; that's a great one! And I might just try that white gluing technique too sometime. Those AFV club tracks seem really good so I'll try to get a set for my tiger...I want to build it soon. And yes, I'm back!
+Panzermeister36 get on Skype Evan. we're even on now
Adam Mann okay okay
Panzermeister36 Also Thank you for saying such nice things about my video. Get Skype set up before the weekend?
Adam Mann I'm gone all weekend for a hockey tournament
I find this very amusing. I am 54 and recently retired. In my younger days I was a serious scale modeller, all WWII Armour or course. Member of Toronto IPMS for a short time. I remember the days having to play hockey and still have time for building. I have been watching your videos and they have inspired me enough to get back into the art. I just spent $200 on hobby supplies to get me started lol. I kept all my boxed kits from 30yrs ago stored in the attic and discovered an unfinished Universal Carrier and Leopard. ...I was actually searching the comments because I was wondering if you and Adam Mann were one in the same! Keep up the great work.@@Panzermeister36
Adam enjoyed your vidio, after you put the fans in you said you liked a little weight in the tank. Ever think of putting plaster of Paris in the lower hull, this will give it some nice weight.
+mitchell Bennis You know I haven't. I weighted a KT turret with a large fishing weight once to counter balance the metal barrel.
Nice video well done
Wittmann ist ein national Held und Ehrenmann🇩🇪🇩🇪👍
great video, Adam.
+Rob Knight Thank you
tank you very mutch
Ps
I truly enjoy your videos mate. Including your commentary!
Thanks very much. I'm glad people still watch them. About to try making some new stuff.
Great video, Adam. Enjoying it like with the rest of your work, just keep 'em coming, buddy.
Looking forward to seeing how you paint and weather this beast...
FYI, you hooked me on Dragon Tigers, so my wallet hates you right now haha
Greeting from Croatia :)
+Tomislav Franc I'd say I'm sorry, but I get a lot of enjoyment out of them and I hope you do too. If you need any information or anything just shoot me a message.
Just starting this kit , bought at the war & peace show yesterday
Very cool. Hope it goes well for you.
Wonderfull!!!
+Seemöve ssz Thank you very much.
Damn this is crazy
Nice video! I've built a couple planes and mostly cars, but I might have to try a tank someday!
You should, and go with Dragon. panzer III is a really fun one to build.
Hey Adam, great video content and love the reviews and builds! Can I ask what model you would use these days to replicate what you have done here for 1331? This was obviously done 4 yeas back and there have been some new versions released by various manufacturers but I would like to do a version of 1331 with filters etc...any advice appreciated.
Hi Adam,
Great video tutorial! I wrote you the other week about doing the AFV tracks, they are fiddley and have given me some grief but I've painted them with humbrol metal coat plus Vallejo flat earth and some reds for light rust and am pretty happy with them. I haven't put them on yet as I wasn't sure exactly in what order with the painting so did a couple of coats on the hull first, will have to look closer at this video on how you attach them to the wheels. I've also got this kit and will be looking forward to the build next year and will now be able to use this as the perfect reference, really appreciate the walk through Adam, merry Christmas.
Regards
Chris.
I'e only gotten to the priming stage on this build as i work most days during the week. Eventually there will be a second video where i'm painting. I don't attach them at all really, i just ut them on like they are on the real tank.
Yeah, I meant feeding them onto the wheels, not gluing them but the tracks have been coming apart and sort of constantly re-gluing them. Going by your video's maybe one of my problems is I only use two glues and one being quick drying super glue. Do you have an email so I can pm you some pics of my tiger build so far?
Christopher Sorby
If you check my about on TH-cam my email is in there, you can send me some pics. I use Tamiya Extra Thin for the tracks.
Hi Adam, whether it's me or because I'm accessing TH-cam on my android, it doesn't mention your email on there.
Christopher Sorby
you know I've no clue. mann.adam.r@gmail.com.
Adam it's easy to do, glue two small pies of Spurs to lower hull then pour the plaster in let it dry and then continue with the build. I do it to all my tanks it feels cool when u hold it.
+mitchell Bennis Very interesting. I'll have to try it.
Have you tried that AK Acrylic Resin Texturizer for pigments yet?? It's good stuff.
Hey Adam,
I am building dragon's 6253 and I have accidentally misplaced one of the g sprues. I was wondering if you might have a spare one I could buy. Thanks in advance for your time,
-Andrew
The format of narrating the speeded up build works well
+Armour Empire Thanks, It's just about how I wanted it.
What's that orange thing at 24:00 that you use to saw the side skirts? I want one! What is it and what brand is it?
Very Nice :)
+Jolonius Rex Thank you
Great video! What was the Orange tool you used to cut up the fenders? I've been looking for a method to do that.
That's a razor saw. It's quite an old bulky one actually.
Adam why did you use white glue on the wheels vs. thin cement? Awesome video - THANK YOU!
So he could take them off to paint, weather etc
Are the afv tracks good? Cause vinyl sucks, unless it's a Sherman, but prefer Individual tracks or link and length. Anyways are bronco tracks any good? Which is better afv tracks or bronco tracks? Are there any other companies out their besides those 2, and I'm not using or buying the expensive ass metal.ones until I build a ryefield full interior mid tiger kit.
Good
I put the the jack on after i place the filters, and then you put on the jack first anyway?
Maybe? It's been years
How do you build the whole thing before painting? It seems like it'd be impossible to paint all the nooks and crannies once assembled.
+RandomCanEHdian Don't let the video fool you, anything white glued (Sprocket, idler, Wheels, track changing cable) comes off for paint or after base coat for detail painting. Tracks, wheels, lower hull, turret and all get broken again.
Adam, tried to find your Google+ account to ask couple questions, so will see if this works. What do you do with leftover parts? Leave on sprue or cut off and store. If store, do you do by the different tank build? Just about finished with the build, had to go back on a couple of parts since really didn't read the directions. My hands shake so got some glue in areas that I shouldn't have. Will painting cover them up? This will be first air brush attempt so still working on distance and psi. What psi do you use? Thanks for your help, wish I had it when I build my first Tiger many years ago.
RFM has there early tiger turret half pistol port the same way opening to the right was that correct?
no, mine is wrong
@@AdamMann3D I've seen original photos of s04 with the wadding vent cover on the tank though when he was moving while firing it seems to be open slightly on the bolts you see it sitting high with all the bolt rods around it like it was adjustable up n down bit definitely was on in my photos I'm looking at
Micheal wittmann was my great great uncle on my mother’s side! So cool to see his legacy still is alive and well to this day in so many different ways!!!
What's the like eye dropper glue you're using to get it precise?
I toothpicks for CA glue and just the brush from Tamiya glue. Which part are you referring to?
Hey Adam, does that kit # 9142 have a diecast metal lower hull? Dragon made a series of pre assembled, pre painted 1/35th scale models called Dragon Armor. I bought Wittman's Kursk Tiger 1, DML Item No.61006 and it has a diecast metal lower hull much like Tamiya's 1/48th scale Tiger 1. I see the two mounting pedestals in the lower hull on your build.
No it's plastic, but it does appear to be a scaled up plastic version of the die cast metal hull.
Funny coincidence . . . I just opened my Cyber-hobby Kursk Tiger last week. Nice video. I like how you used the round file to assist in the muzzle break assembly. Are you trying to say that the pioneer tools with clasps will not fit on the hull? Still trying to understand all the hacking of the tools. Love the time lapse and commentary overlay stuff.
+Russell Gosselin I hack up the tools because I can't do PE clasps but wanted something with more detail than the older ones provided in the Cyber Hobby kit. So I frankenstein some newer molded clasps with the old ones to fit.
Pft . . . The dinky clasps are fine. I use them. I know, I know . . . you are particular about your Tigers :) It's all good. It makes you unique. Model on, Adam!
Would you recommend this kit to an intermediate-beginner modeller?
I am 14 (8 more days, really) years old and I've picked up on this hobby very quickly, with small parts and high detail not seeming to become a bother to me. I am however, in dire need of an airbrush (which I hope I can pick up at or just after Christmas) along with some other aux. supplies.
I think it's pretty easy, but i've been doing this for about 2 years. The late Tiger with Zimmerit 6383 was a nice easy build. If you think you can do it you should give it a try.
Hello Adam,
So im a beginner , could you list some basic tools and equipment i should get to start building models?
thanks for your time
Sprue cutters are great but a good hobby knife is the main thing you'd need to cut parts. Sanding sticks are the best for sanding for sure. Tamiya Extra Thin for glue is a must. A nice well lit area. Everything else is great, but as long as you can cut parts, sand them and then glue them, all while being able to see you'll have a good start. Eventually other bits come. A tweezers wouldn't hurt either. Maybe I'll do a video on this to try and help more.
thanks for the advice! if you could add painting, thinning tips and such in a video like that itd be much appreciated!
Guys what would you tell a new builder that wants to do a tiger in 1/35 ? What one to go with ?
TY
+zofoblues If you haven't done any 1/35 armor, maybe Tamiya 35216. The Dragon kits like 6383 are a little harder and Tamiya is a nice gateway build.
ty
hello Adam,
a few questions about thus built.
1) I see that you use the value kit whuch is now almost as expensive then the Wittmann tiger 6730.could I use the 6730 to built the Kursk tiger?
2) in your kit the wheels come with those links and are bound together, but in your video thise wheels show as individuals wheels. did you change the wheels? and if not what did you do to make them work?
3) I want to built the turret #1331 would kit 6730 work?
4) the tanker's uniforms in Kursk for Wittmann, could I still reflect them with the leather jacket, but maybe also with camo?
5) could you advise which colors (vallejo) would you use for the cammo
thanks in advance Adam
1) yes, that is in fact a much better kit than the one I used. I would be mindful though not to use the rear plate in that kit and a different one that is included. 6730 is a command variant, so there some extra antenna and such on those.
2) Yeah, I cut the wheels off the connectors off camera.
3) Yes, but again mind the befehls (command) stuff
4) I don't really know a lot about SS unit uniforms at Kursk in 43. I will run this by my friends that do though.
5) I don't use vallejo paint to spray.
+Adam Mann thanks Adam, that helped me a lot.
you mentioned the backplate, what is different from the obe in kit 6370, to the tiger with turret #1331?
thanks also on the uniform check
What is the link for the model box that u showed at the beginning? I tried to look it up and I can't find it. 🙁
Its getting a little harder to find now days. It's Cyber-Hobby 9142. I know there are a few on ebay, but it's out of stock most places. You could easily use Dragon 6730 or 6820 to make this tank as well.
I looked at the Dragon link but does the tank move or sit still (I like to roll around and have a little fun when it is bored.)
how can one get a hold of this tiger tank models?
ashraf gani on ebay and other online stores. get dragon or tamiya models. best quality.
Hello Adam..
Would you recommend the ZVEZDA 1/35 tiger?
I would not. I've seen some bad copies of it. But I've also seen decent ones. Seems a bit hit or miss. I prefer Dragon or RFM and in a pinch Tamiya.
Can't seem to locate Part 2 yet so I assume it's not ready at the moment? Loved the video and the method of your building. I got into building these Dragon & Tamiya WWII models a couple years ago and a partial stroke put everything on hold for a while and I'm just now getting back to my building again and really looking forward to it again. I just picked up the new Dragon Tiger-1 Early Production (Michael Wittmann) kit and awaiting delivery on it. Man it was rough to find and I began to think I wasn't going to get one of the kits? I have two kits I'm getting ready to start on and they are Academy's M-18 Hellcat and Tamiya's German King Tiger (Ardennes Front) 1944 kit and am awaiting delivery of the Eduard #35986 Armor update kit for it. This will be my first time working with the update kits which I'm really looking forward to and I think I've decided to go with the AFV track kits because I just don't like the cheap tracks that come in these kits. You would think what we're forced to pay for these kits today that their tracks and a few other items would be made with better quality designs & materials. What's your opinion on the new aluminum barrel kits?
+Texas Hi-Railer I tend not to replace barrels unless it's an old 2 piece one like in a Tamiya kit from the 90's. And my advice on using update sets is make sure the kit requires it, Which in the case of that King Tiger I think you do need one. I think that M-18 might be a nice easy kit to start off with, but the Dragon Tiger you got goes together very easily.
Part 2 is being filmed whenever I can get the chance, right now I'm about to start weathering as the paint, decals and tracks are all painted and applied. Maybe 2 weeks or so until it's done. but don't quote me on that, I'm about to go back to work.
Michel Wittmann' used the Tiger l mount 1332 during the Battle of Kursk as his original assigned mount 1331 decided to play silly bugger's and therefore being sent to the workshop, he jumped into the mount 1332.
Oh and can u do a vid on working on the Panther tanks (Panther A-F)? Tanks for the vids.
I have some Panther vids planned
Can u do a vid cause I (personally) like Tiger 1, King Tiger, and the Panther A-F
Michael Wittmann 's 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love that Steve Buscemi is into model tanks
Is this a suggestion that I sound like Steve Buscemi?
Yes :)
fair enough.
Who else recognised the backround music from WW2 metaldetecting video intros
Where's part 2 on the painting????
+gruppenfuhrer45 I have about 13 minutes edited together. I'm a teacher and It's end of semester so I have to grade. I'm going to aim to have it up by the end of the weekend but no promises.
+Adam Mann ok no worries. Thanks. And awesome job sir. Lookin forward to pt 2
Thanks very much. The edit so far looks pretty good, so I'm excited to share it. The model itself is something I'm pretty proud of, and to have the entire process documented is surreal honestly.
were part 2 ?????
+Peggy Seaton Filming it right now. There are lots of phases of painting and weathering that require you to wait 24 hours while oils and enamels dry. I'm working as fast as I can. it will be up as soon as I can get it done and edited.
Where are you right now? Your last vid like 1 year ago
I have little kids, I don't have much time.
OK watched the videos backwards but the way you built and the how you explain what you're doing is very informative to all that watch. I meant to suggest to you when you are painting with an air brush try wearing gloves this way you can pull them off after panting and you have clean hands! I use nitrile gloves and get them the next size up so you can pull them off easier! I have the same pair I bought three years ago!
+bob ahnert I actually have gloves, Don't always wear them though.
I see! I must admit to that I forget them myself sometimes and then scrubbing them raw to get them clean but I use them at work also because of diesel, gas,the other things my hands come in contact with on a daily basis.
Where is part 2 Adam!!!!
+sekytwo only a bit of pigments left to record and then editing. I work a lot so I only get time to work on videos here and there. But it will be up soon.
right on man, I hear ya, I work and have school full time and i barely have enough time to glue one road wheel together.
Real novice question why dont you paint the parts first then stick them on

Pzkf vl simply the best or das panzer
wasnt michael wittman get sent out to normandie 1944 with a tiger with number 007. but when he was in Russia he was in a stug III. But great video anyway.
There is a lot more out there to Wittmann's story. I suggest you read up on him. Michael WIttmann had a few different Tigers.
Adam Mann welp I saw a docomantory about michael wittman but they only speakt about when he was in a stug III and a tiger with number 007. And how he got killd. And who killd him and his crew
www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=12145&stc=1&d=1199769273.jpg
That is Wittman with his early Tiger S04, he was also in 1331 at Kursk. That documentary about his demise at CInteaux simply doesn't cover his early Tigers. He was actually in a Tiger numbered 205 in Normandy, used a Tiger numbered 212 at Villers Bocage, and died at Cinteaux in someone else's Tiger numbered 007. It's all on the internet.
This site cites some pretty unrealible books, but it's a good start.
www.achtungpanzer.com/michael-wittmann.htm
Adam Mann ok thanks, I thogt I shud gow and make som more resertch but thanks for doing my bitting
Halo mannen There is a great series of books called "Tigers in Combat" that details every action taken by a Tiger tank in the war. There are also some unofficial biography books on Wittmann like the Panzer Aces series.
How does Dragon compares to Cyber-hobby models? I thought they were the same product....thanks for sharing this video...The fact that there is no available reference on Mr. Wittmann's specific vehicle; it pretty much leaves the door open for multiple variations and one of the most annoying one for me is to find out the there's authors on the subject denying, that he actually drove a tank with the numerals..007 stenciled on the turret...Even Dragon's production models conflict themselves in this matter....Who is to know..? I've seen the clips of interviews of the British tankers who've actually confronted and destroyed his vehicle themselves, but no mention of specific details or markings that would help the modeler community with this very important issue...Also; do you (or anybody in this forum), knows if Mr. Jochen Peiper, (Wittmann's superior officer) drove a specific battle tank in battle himself..? I been working on his biography, and again, I can't come across anything complete..seems that I have to first build the story, then build the model....thanks all and for allowing me to comment here....I more than anxious waiting for more of your videos.....( I became part of a 'model building club' for many years and I miss the atmosphere and the camaraderie developed within those settings; these videos help a lot in that regard...) Thank you!
+El Diablo Cyber Hobby is Dragon. Orange boxes like this are low end, and White boxes are "high end". I honestly don't know anything about Peiper's tank. I know that 007 was not Wittmann's official vehicle but he did ride in it the day he died. Michael's tank in 101st SS was numbered 205. His Villers Bocage action was in a tank numbered 212, which was a long disputed fact, but some very smart guys ended up matching the muzzle break and mantlet type in a few pictures and narrowed it down.
+Adam Mann ..Thanks for your response...always something new to learn..
Happy and safe holidays...!
dude in kurs witmann use tiger ausf E, it s mean no exaust cable in the back. u video its tiger ausf h1 they have exaust cable in the back.
+robocop So Tiger H1 is used sometimes to refer to Tigers but they are all Ausführung E, this is known as a late early E. I also don't know what an exhaust cable is, but if you're referring to the Feifel air pre-cleaners, they were being installed on all early Tigers at that point. I'm not sure if you're aware of this or not but the person I thank for technical assistance in my video description is the one of the foremost experts on Tiger tanks in the world and is Dragon's technical consultant. We have based what we think Wittmann would have used based on photographs of his platoon in July of 1943. If you have more evidence than I'd love to see it.
I just did some googling and have decided you most likely get your information from War Thunder as they seem to refer to early Tigers as H1, and late Tigers as E. This is incorrect. The only reference to Tiger H1 was by the army procurement board in one document. Also The Feifel system on the engine deck was installed from late 1942 until September of 1943, which is around the same time ZImmerit started to be applied.
I'm glad you're interested in Tiger tanks, but please just be aware that there is a lot of information and documentation on the Tiger. I professionally review model kits and books about it, so before you go telling people they're wrong on the internet, do some research. I suggest the book DW to Tiger I by Jentz.
I would paint and weather the Tiger first and then put the tools on it last.
Shelby Hughes you're more than welcome to build it your way and Adam is entitled to do it his way.

Your approach to building a model is poor, as is your talking. Sorry if this offends you but if you are going to be building a model of a highly regarded soldier and his crew, show some skill, not the lazy approach that is apparent in your video. Poor and lazy is the only way to describe your attitude.
Weird, I can't see any videos on your channel. My videos are to document my process, not impress other people.
