James just loves his rivets. Very nice, thanks. (I'm with you on the track links - sometimes a rubber band track becomes very desirable.)

Saw this at the tank museum yesterday, it’s definitely going on my to do list, and hopefully I will get as good a finish as you.

It doesn't matter if it flies or crawls on the ground, you make it look great. Yes, please, build another tank whenever you fancy.

Criminally underrated channel!

Wow. Great work and some great tips included. The finished result is Amazing. Looks like you could jump in and Drive off..! It looked that realistic..! Brilliant work Sir..! Cheers All. 😎

Cracker build! Love the way the textures brought the vehicle to life, and your use of oil paints! Would love to see more armour builds!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Nice job! I watched someone else do a build on a whippet and found that despite it being a basically useless little vehicle it had such an unusual, distinctive appearance that it catches the eye. I've never wanted to build a WWI era vehicle before but after watching and enjoying your build I think I may just have to add one to my collection!

Love this model! I built it about six months ago and wish I had seen yours first for the excellent tips/techniques used to weather the model. Will go back to mine and give it a bit of extra work. Great build, painting and weathering and commentary full of advice. Some more tanks would be appreciated but keep up the aircraft modelling as well. Thanks, James.

Amazing work.I m a big fan of your ww1 serie.all kits are wonderful.thanks for your videos from France

Really nice work. More armour builds? Yes please...

Awesome tank build and great techniques. Give that thread a quick flash with a lighter and coat of watered down PVA before paint. Definitely more armor!

The white and red on the front track plate was so aerial reconnaissance knew the vehicals direction of travle on the battlefield. The use of white on the front of many vehicles was for two reasons really. Recon ,and to Confuse the enemy of their vehicles direction of travle at night as well. Never thought to use graphite sticks , and i have them. Nice effect.

Well. What can I say. Restarted modelling a couple of years ago after an over thirty year hiatus. My techniques have come on in leaps and bounds, (they were just a tad dated and youtube has been my friend in playing catch up). I usually concentrate on aircraft but I have two afvs in my 'to do' collection, this one and a Tamiya Crusader. I think I will tackle the Crusader first, it's a lot simpler! Your build is just brilliant and if I can emulate just a fraction of the skill demonstrated here I'll be happy. Thanks for uploading, much appreciated. Subscribed.

Great paint job. Check out the whippet tank at Bovington tank museum, the crews painted false vision slits on the hull to foil the aim of german snipers and give the crew a better chance of survival.

Beautiful paintjob!

Nicely done, I'll take note of anything you build. The detail and explanation are perfect. Thanks.

Awesome build, love the exhaust wrapping, I’ve been after one of these tanks for over a year now but as I get the money together I see a Tiger 1 going cheap and I just have to have it, like giving it a good home, I know sad, have about 11 1/35 tigers five panthers six stug III’S and loads of auxiliary vehicles. I’ve been planning a Tiger 1 convoy diorama for nearly two years now have all the auxiliary vehicles made as well as three of the seven Tigers. Just starting to make some trees for diorama and casting stone blocks for a six foot long wall ( background of diorama ) I’ve over sixty troops to paint up too. So going to be a busy winter. Anyway please keep posting more Armour as your really good at it plus your weathering and colour modulation and your voice over description is brilliant and so easy to understand ( I need things dumend down to the floor for me to take things in 😂😂😂 ) so thanks very much 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 all the very best to you, Kenny 😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi James, outstanding. Would love to see more armour builds. You made it look way to easy, but sadly mine don’t look at all like a working vehicle, yet. Thanks for sharing.

Very good modelling.

Great build, deffinately like to see more armour, especially if you stick to the more unusual subjects like the whippet, there are thousands of shermans and Germans out there already, so subjects like this really stand out, and look brilliant when finished to such a high standard as yours!!

Great build, learned a lot. So please do more armour.

Amazing, I build it myself and is a kit to love. The tracks are a little fragile indeed, what I did was, when I finished 1 complete track I put Tamiya 3mm tape on the inside of the tracks, it stays more sturdy and tape is not visible after assembling.

I am terrible....straight to the paining!

I think your wrapped exhaust idea is a great one. A possible mitigation to the “fluffy” string problem may be brushing on a thick coat of gloss clear on the string before painting.

Excellent build James. Lots of great techniques. Definitely more armour builds. Maybe a panzer?

A really good build and awesome paint job. I've just found you on You Tube so will do some catching up. I noted you saying that the exhaust wrapping became fluffy. You can stop this by using some lightly thinned PVA wood glue and then wet your finger and thumb with the glue before pulling the wrapping chord between them. This puts a thin surface of glue without soaking the chord.

You could have avoided the muffler(exhaust) cord cover fraying by masking or removing them, to avoid them being soaked by the solvents in the many coats of paint that you applied. I would've used more tan than yellow for the high lighting on the top, but, all in all, you got quite impressive results. The results you got on the tracks are great. I also have to mention the results of the dots of paint on all them bolt heads. By all means, let's see more armour builds. Thanks for sharing this.

please do more armour, this is great !
