I can't believe the first time I watched one of your videos was around a decade ago in grade school. I'm now in the army and so glad that I'm still able to stop in occasionally and see a new video from you. You're a real positive guy and I'm glad you do what you do!

Yes there are some very talented model makers out there the guy plasmo is second to none but I love the way you set out your builds and give a little history on what ever you are modelling I have about 4 or 5 guys that I like to follow yourself and Robs basic modelling are among my favourite channels so keep up the great builds as a small boy in the 1960s I would spend my pocket money on airfix kits now as a older boy after watching your channel I have rediscovered our great hobby 😀 👍

That is definitely in your top 5 best models that I've seen you do. Paintwork is spot on, I like the subtle weathering and the addition of the self made sand bags makes it unique. An inspirational build for sure. Most excellent... I hope to get my kit done this summer, it looks like a fun project and being Tamiya, it shouldn't be too complicated. Great video too and as always great choice of music! What's not to like.. ;)

Great Job Q. The tank turned out sweet. I’ve been subscribed to your channel for about 10 years or so. One of my favorite kits/dioramas you ever built was the D-Day landing with the Higgins boat and all of the soldiers storming Omaha beach. I thought that the beach & textured waves and the shell explosions were fantastic! Definitely expertly executed my friend. There is something very calming and mentally soothing about your building approach. You have a sort of Bob Ross calming effect as the kit comes together & I always get the itch to build something out of my large stash of kits after watching one of your videos. Keep ‘em coming Q, I always enjoy picking up a helpful technique or two as well Cheers mate.

Nicely done.....I still haven't tried that adding on of mud and debris about the wheels and side walls,,,,I served in the 2nd Armor 40 years back and don't remember the mud etc build up.....always thought the vibrations and thudding of the track (M113) knocked all that off......bath time was normally fairly easy...didn't know you are a colonel in a admin office...lol Carry on!!

Thanks for watching my video and thanks for your kind words. I done some research using historic photos to place mud on the my model. But you have 40 years of direct experience serving in the military. Wow. If you're an American, I want to thank you for your 40 years of service protecting the USA! I am just a casual history buff but your direct experience with tanks are certainly an asset in building these models. I'm not sure, you can probably educate me on this, but I understand that post World War Two American armor vehicles are better designed to shake off mud with use. When I think about it, I don't remember seeing any photographs of post World War Two vehicles with a lot mud in the running gears. Thanks for commenting on my old shirt. I got it at the military museum when they were having a yard sale. Take care and I wish you the best.

@@qdc748a You are doing fine with research. My time with the 2nd Armor was only 6 months and left the Army after that. (1978) We were in central Texas, so 'real' mud mixed with dessert sand, dried quick and became a dust coating. Check out 'Nam pics, occasionally the tracks and armor would have quite a bit of a red dirt coverage. I spent my first 5 yrs in the 82nd and 509th Airborne, so going to an armored division was a bit unreal. When in the airborne these vehicles were prime targets, so I always felt I had a target on my back riding in these vehicles.

Always nice to watch your builds. Thanks for this one. I'd say it's a very solid effort! Your airbrush has a bit blotchy spray pattern. Maybe you try to spray with slightly a bit more pressure?

I like Tamiya a lot. Their kits are designed to be a joy building . It's not overly complicated and they have just the right amount of details that would satisfy most model kit builders of all skill levels. Thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it.

You did a fine job on that model. I have built that model as well some years back. I do love how it goes together. I do like your presentation on what you do in your videos. You don't try to show off and you do things simply and show that you don't have to be a pro modeler to get into the hobby. Don't ever stop building.

Thank you very much for your kind words. As I get older and older, I understand that some people who shows off, advertise, or embellish themselves are insecure individuals. These individual's ego are so fragile that they must present themselves as superior. I don't show off because I don't have a need or a desire to do so. Don't get me wrong. My fellow model kit builders are very, very talented and I admire their work. Take care and thank you for watching my video. I honestly appreciate it.

Hallo QDC... I like your Videos.... I watch it for many years! Why you're changing your painting Method...? No more Shadows and Highlights...!? Greatings from Vienna...

Ай бұрын

Thank you for watching my videos over the years. The older I get, the more subtle my painting techniques grows. The shadows and highlights are there but it's been painted in a more subtle way. The place you can see more direct shadows and highlights are the suspension system. It's just a style and frankly, any painting method is fine so long as you enjoy painting you model kits. Vienna is a place I want to visit. This year, I went to Berlin but maybe my next trip should be to Vienna. Thank you again for watching my video and take care.

Anyway, yes I guess as men motorcyclists gets older, we tend to grow our hair out and still ride. Most my motorcycle friends my age have long hair. Thank you again, and take care.
