A cool job with the Elefant and a great result. It looks very well with the light and the motorizing makes it very interesting.
Nice demonstration, David. Wish you a nice weekend. Greetings, Joachim

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Joachim, this was a surprisingly great build that turned out to be very 😁 fun.

[@johnalecsscalemodeling]

David you did a great job on that buddy! Painting, lights, figures it all came out great - kudos.

[@davidchin350]

Thanks John, glad you like it. I'm happy with the end result ☺️

[@KHModelWorks]

Wow .. nice model. You did a great job with painting/weathering. The part with the magnets to accommodate the gear box was awesome. It is really nice when a kit exceeds expectations.

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Kurt, this was a surprisingly great build and very compatible for motorized action.😊

[@SteveJonesScaleModellingSite]

Oh Man! That is an awesome build. Seeing it move over the ring binders - wonderful!. Great work on the figures also David. Lovely video all round.

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Steve, love watching the road wheel suspension🙂

[@edsgarage9966]

Nice details, I like the slower speed on the motor. It really shows off the suspension.

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Ed, I agree that the lower gear speed gives it more torque to climb and to watch the rocking suspension 🙂

[@JMdfcv]

Excellent build! Nice work lighting and motorizing!

[@davidchin350]

Thanks JM, I enjoyed this build very much.

[@themediocremodeler-zm7ny]

The Elefant turned out awesome David. Great detail. I like the lighting. You got me thinking that I may try this in the future. The gear ratio is spot on. I always find your videos enjoyable and educational. Stills at the end and live demos were awesome. Thanks for sharing, David.

[@TheBlueberry606]

You got an airbrush, perfect 👌

[@davidchin350]

@@TheBlueberry606yes thanks. I still use spray cans for some builds or parts. Spray cans are still faster for me since colors are already mixed and cleanup is easy. This Elefant kit was all airbrushed.

[@MoonwalkerModels]

Very cool Dave!

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Kenny, glad you like it. I was very surprised by the Italeri features on this kit.

Dude, this looks awesome. Maybe your best yet.

[@oddball759mm]

pretty ballsy to motorize convert an Italeri Elephant, good candidate... form fitting suspension and rubber tracks, plus lots of space. nice conversion work

[@davidchin350]

Thanks, your videos have inspired me to motorize all my tanks.🙂👍

[@oddball759mm]

@@davidchin350 I might have to give this one a shot one of these days :)

[@markfrommontana]

A great build with a wonderful finish David. I suspect your next mods will be to put firing cannon in all your armor! Model on!

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Mark, I have thought of flashing red light inside the barrel end but probably no shooting projectiles.
