Thank you for taking the time to show your painting techniques.
Andy, Thank You! After a 15 year hiatus from the hobby I stumbled across this build video. I immediately ordered the kit and assembled it using many of the techniques you used here. It was an awesome kit and my version came out really nice! I’m very happy with the results to quote you. Needless to say it but I am back into the hobby and couldn’t be happier. Love the videos so keep them coming and thanks again for rekindling my passion for scale modeling!
Tamiya the best model kit company in the world!, been modelling for near 40 years and it is still the best.
Hey Andy, from another Andy, I think you should start an online store again, the hobby shop near me specializes in trains and has very little armour. I would really love to support you but I'm only 14 and can't get to Arizona. Cheers
Your videos are great at reinforcing a strong set of basic skills that anyone can have a go at themselves at home and make it all look fun and easy. Great work Andy...

It's so satisfying watch models being built keep making more videos :)
Andy you truly have the patience of a saint applying 1/35 painting techniques to a 1/16 kit. I would have just hit it with a rattle can and called it done ha ha. love this kit and great job on this video!
That monster is gorgeous!!!!!!! Very well made and weathered as well!
that is pretty cool engineering on the m1a1 your doing a great job painting and building as u give tips to make it easier 👍👍👍
That’s just rude
great video but here is a little tip with abs. from a printer guy. use a little acetone on a brush. but be carefull if you spill any it will melt the abs test it on some scrap. enjoy your vids andy :)
Good tip thanks for watching
Thanks Andy for this video. It has been a great help to me as I built my Abrams. I don't doubt the information that I got from your video kept me out of several problems. Building the turret mounting system would have been much more difficult, not to mention annoying, if I did not have the video. By the way I used a tiny ball of blue sticky stuff to hold the screws to my screwdriver with the turret ring. It worked great and the blue stuff easily pulled free after the screws were tightened. Now to paint.
Andy, thanks for building this Abrams so soon after you received it for our viewing pleasure. As always, you did a GREAT job! Do you write a script for your video builds and reviews or do you just comment as you go along? Whatever method(s) you use, NO ONE does it better as far as I'm concerned. I think I would get tons of your subscribers to agree. PLEASE keep up your good work!
Enjoyed your presentation. I was a project manager for the M1A2S tank (export model for Saudi Arabia). We would paint many of the sub-components prior to mounting them on the tanks passing through the factory. With this model is it feasible to pre-paint the vehicle prior to any assembly or would that create more hardship than its worth?Also when weathering the model, add a little grime around all of the fuel hatches and some scratch marks where the top gun mantel flap rubs against the top of the turret - otherwise, great paint scheme! Also, the paint will flak off a bit on the engine exhaust hatch/vent in the center rear of the vehicle.
Most people do paint before assembly, he seems to do less detail on the inside because it is hard to see if at all. I do very detailed interiors on mine even if it is not seen because I have spent time in the real vehicles and it means a lot to me that its done.
Sad you sold this beauty to a country which still crucifies ppl in public and bombs young schoolkids in Yemen. Not to mention a country where the 9/11 attackers came from.
Raw Potato as much as I agree with you (re; Saudi Arabia being the heart of darkness in the modern world)... can we please keep this channel free of politics and friendly/light hearted. Andy's channel is like a little daily escape from the real world. After all, isn't that the whole point of modelling? To be fun and to keep us sane?
@@rawpotatofella9654 Are you really going to let a few public crucifixions stand in the way of enjoying kickass tanks? Get your priorities straight.
How different is the armor on the M1A2S compared to the US versions? The ATGM videos cast some doubt
Nice work on the Abrams build...the tank is a monster.
I have always stuck to revell but looking forward to switching to tamiya models. Love seeing your video as gives me a idea of what model to get next. Keep up the great work.
Nice build and nice to see that Tamiya is also promoting this item on their twitter :)
Tamiya builds awesome kits...
Andy the Model Master... Your new name should be "M&M." Wow, super nice build again keep them coming!!
Thank you
Hey Andy, just wanted to say that this is another great build, and thank you so much, I have learnt so much from watching your videos.
You impart knowledge in a wonderful, easy-going fashion, and your love and enthusiasm for the hobby is self evident and infectious.
Thanks mate, I really appreciate all your hard work.
Love the Abrams along with the tiger 2 and tons of others keep up the good work.
i think that you should do a big build every few months. like i said in a comment on a previous video, the merit international SBd dauntless would be a good candidate for it.
Sir, AlexModeling did in December 2016
yeah i saw that series, but i would like to see how andy would do it.
@Chris McRoy okay?
Nice. That fingernail polish really compliments your cheek bones and choice of table your working on. I just had to bring up fingernails. Awesome how it all came out. An absolute monster. The US military has some extremely cool vehicles.
I need one of these! Price wise I think my current crawler build rivals this kit. Tamiya makes awesome kits and they set they have always set the standard.
the paint skills, wow!!!
Now that’s a Ta. Ank really neat Andy ! first thing. To do gets bowls and sort them screws .
Daumen hoch klasse 💯✨️👍
Hello, Andy. Thx so much for your brilliant work. I'm building a Tamiya 1/16 RC M1A2 now, watching your video on the process almost feels like cooking with Gordon Ramsey XD!
Do you recommend to paint all metal parts with (I) metal primer & (II) XF59(50%)+XF57(50%) before I put the model together? Or I may leave the paint until the end? Thx
Impressive the evolution of plastic modelism, steel with plastic. 27 years ago I build this tank with three engines. One for the turret and two for the tracks, remote control, I think it was Tamiya, I didn't kept it with me.
Omg love this video i don't have the time to build tamiya models its better to watch it be built
Thank God , for these videos
Man, that’s a really nice kit! I like that old military stuff but I wish someone made them in 1/24th and 1/25th scale and a detailed engine/pack! I’ve never built any military vehicles but getting more interested all the time now! Good video here too!
Impressive, it was very interesting to watch.
Great video that weathering is simple and looks good!
Awesome kit nice job on it keep up the great videos.
HA! Return rollers.... I though they were road wheels until you said something... that thing is huge
Great video! Excellent tips and technique. Thanks!
Wow! Absolutely superb! I want this and the Challenger 2 now! 😊
Wow, beautiful work again, that model looks like alot of fun
I love how fast the build was released after the review! I was expecting a month in between!
Wow, that's a big tank, thanks for showing us this beauty!!
Nice work Andy. One minor point: the optics on this tank should be a reddish colour, rather than the blue tint you used, due to the fact they have an anti-laser coating
As always Andy; great video, great build, and very informative. Keep up the good work!
素晴らしいの一言だねさすがタミヤこれからもどんどん新製品お作ってください応援してます期待してます
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I have been building the RC versions of allot of Tamiya trucks and armor and I like this static version allot!
I really like the paint job
Superb video. Subbed. Tamiya's engineering is once again show to be one of the best, if not the best, on the market!
sob this thing is huge! cant wait to buy it!!!! great build Andy!!!
thank you
These Tamiya R/C tanks are awesome, I just wish I could afford them! Thanks for sharing though
Great build Andy it looks superb
Suspension and track are great!
Wow....that is huge.
An excellent kit Andy very well finished, I wish tamiya did the British Challenger ll .
what a beast of a model 💯👍
Awesome looking model and great finish! Thank you for the video.
Beautiful
For your ball bearings on the turret ring. I use a bit of vasiline on a tooth pick stub to dab a bit in the spots needed to hold the bearings in place, Usually you need to ritated the unit several times to work them free flowing.
Nice model and nice assembly video. Looking at the model, it doesn't look like it would be too difficult to get electrics and motors in there. It'd certainly hold a lipo inside down the middle.
They should make a 1/16th Leopard 2 model. Would look awesome!
Woot, been looking forward to this since your preview :D
Good video, and you can get a ratchet screwdriver kit with interchangeable heads including hex keys. As or the turret ring, vaseline will hold the ball bearings in place, and lube them, and you can probably use wooden toothpicks to line up the blind screw holes.
thats so beautiful
Awesome Kit
Hi Andy, Great build on the Abrams - Here is a tip for the little screws - get a magnetized screwdriver - they make the process a lot easier. So when will we be seeing the full blown R/C version on your channel? Hopefully soon. These things move like nothing else in the hobby, you will love them. I am going to assume the R/C versions will have the gun stabilization option, similar to the Leopard.
This is just crying out for a baggage set and 2-3 crew figures. Nice work Andy
Beautiful model Andy! That is one big kit. Great job as always. Cheers!
Been waiting all week for this vid! Thanks Andy!
great model and amazing video. greeting from china~~~
Absolutely awesome
Now thats what I call a model
Fab video of an amazing kit!!
Wonderful work..wish I had that sort of turnaround time on my model kits...still over 60 in the stash!!!!
Outstanding!
Hi bro. Put some camo nets. It’ll look dope
Cant wait to see 1/1 scale
YOU ARE DOING GREAT GOB
Freaking AWESOME! You make it look so easy. Great job!

Truly amazing video! I love all the details. best modeler 2017 keep up the good work!

Great job
I liked this video. Thanks
Fabulous video.
Great work!
1/16!!!
It’s really rare to find 1/16 tanks in Hong Kong 😩
thats a big model tank dang
That kit cost $688 !! the RC model is over $1200 !!
i don't care i still want one
Does that include the radio controlled gear and is it available in the uk ?
@@Steve-dr7rr as far as i can tell the RC version, you need to get your own compatible remote, unless you are in japan.
looks like asuper machine for killing people
Ah I love stuff I will never be able to afford 😢
great job!!nice tutorial....nice video,thanks!!
Hi Andy another great video. Just one thing I have noticed in the last couple of videos is when you aren't speaking there is no music which I prefer but there seems to be a humming thumping noise which is noticeable as I normally have the speaks up . Just drives me crazy. Just thought I would let you know.
Always look fwd to your video releases.
Awesome!
Great nice Tamiya M1A2 display version model. See your video clip planing to buy one myself soon .
man, i like your videos, but you jump the coolest part of mounting, like the turret is so cool and you jump it
Nice job!
looks great
Excellent
Wow! what an amazing kit. Fantastic looking finish Andy, well done mate! What I'd give to get one of these, but sadly would be way out of my price range.
Brilliant work as always Andy, could you just finish it with the antenna and the unit flags, that would just finish it off
thank you very much
oh you know that the M1A2 is my favourite tank
love your vids andy good work.
Thank you
