Unbelievable. When I saw you drill the 30 cal barrel freehand, I knew this was going to be a wild ride. Excellent, outstanding. Thanks

I have to use jigs made of rolled up paper and a manually operated pin vise. That freehand feat was amazing.

I work as a painting and modelling instructor at my local hobby store. I just recently discovered your channel and I have absolutely loved your videos. I've even incorporated some methods you use for explaining the steps you take into my own teaching classes. Really love your videos and look forward to following more of them!

I'm halfway through my build now, superdetailing the interior. I have a second that I will make look factory fresh and probably create a side by side calling it, a different type of casualty of war. I know it sounds different than most would recommend, but I always weather my interiors prior to sealing. The paint is porous and when you wipe off the, "grime," you leave a nicer texture. Then seal it if you want.

Rye feild is hands down my favorite model kit company with meng as a close second. The detail is always perfect and the selection of kits with interiors is a dream for someone like me, who enjoys building far more than painting.

Thoroughly enjoyed this, thank you.

You have an incredible eye for detail, hands of a surgeon. My wife’s uncle commanded Sherman tanks in Europe under Gen. Patton. He would have been very impressed with your workmanship. Thank you for your build!!! Looking forward to Part 2. Cheers 🍻 Bob

WOW....Simply WOW, that's one impressive kit and your paint job is incredibly realistic, I got the opportunity to get into and ride on a Sherman a few years ago, and the wear patterns on the floor plate and interior surfaces are spot on, I'm very much looking forward to the second video, Thank you.

What a enthusiastic video! Very impressive skill of assembling and painting. Pure joy for our eyes! Thank you for sharing🙂

All I can say is, Damn!!! You got skillz!!!! That was very impressive!!! As a WW2 history fan I enjoy seeing a good model build. That was spectacular!!! I've never heard of that brand of kit before. It looked like it was very well made. Good detail on the parts, very little flash, and accurate placement of exterior features like hatches, machine gun mounts, lights, etc. Nice.

A model as complete as that has an upgrade set? Good Lord, didn't think you could build it better.

Remembering the first tank model I built in the 60s (yes I'm that old) the kits of today continue to astonish me in their quality and level of detail. Nice work 👍

I remember building a 1/76 scale king tiger tank that has interior detailing. From the driver seat and steering to the engine in back. Turret showed the gun , spare rounds. I think the company was Fujimi or close to that.

The interior has a Star Wars vibe too it. Looks great and I am envious of anyone who works with such small scale kits. i can barely work on 1/10 RC projects these days.

I agree with you. Also, as a Star Wars modeler, I can't say I'm not tempted to get two copies of this kit: one to build as a Sherman, and one to use for greebling a Star Wars vessel.

This is my first time to see this amazing 1/35 Sherman model kit in my life!

Really enjoyed this kit personally. Found it very detailed and well engineered. It's hard to mess up and will leave you with something special. Even the exterior leaves little to be desired on its own. Tracks were a long haul but they look far superior to anything vinyl.

Incredibly detailed kit, and amazing skill with assembly and painting. You'd think with that level of detail they would include an aluminum/brass barrel for the main gun.

You can get this kit for around 60 dollars as it is. Some other Similar Sherman kits cost over $120.00 and I'll take the plastic gun to not have go broke getting it.

I did look into getting a metal barrel, but the kit one was nice and straight and it didn't really seem worth it.... I do like a metal barrel though!!!

Very nice, can't wait to see the completed kit.

Hats off to the designers of this kit. Great job and so much patience with building of the tracks

I truly love these kinds of videos

Built 2 of these already has to be the best full interior out by far!

Very cool - I enjoyed watching this. Best part for me was making the tracks. Modeling has come a long way since the 70-80's when I was active.

This kit is absolutely mad. Well done for A) doing such a good job so far, and B) retaining your marbles. A kit like this would have been the end of me.

Really enjoyed this video, beautiful work

the dirt on the floor turned out amazing, you should add some shoeprints with a scale model soldier! :D

Absolutely first class modelling Andy really looking forward to part 2 👍

First time seeing someone build an interior for a model like that, amazing work.

Simply an outstanding build. Great job! I've learned a lot watching this video. Thanks for posting. Keep them coming.

Looks great, now forward to the next video.

Great work. Sure hands and keen eyes. Looking forward to the finished kit.

fantastic job of weathering and blending the colors - keep the great work

That track is amazing

This was interesting to watch. Too damn cool. I wouldn't have the patience for all of that lol.

Couldn't wait to watch the next episode!

Absolutely brilliant build! I enjoyed every moment!

The tracks, just insane.

Such craftsmanship. Thank you for your service.

Wow the rear bulkhead detail is amazing.

Great job so far, can't wait to see part 2

Excellent build Andy, I've been looking at this sherman for myself, can't wait for part 2. Model on!

Wow, amazing work and I can’t wait for part 2!

Really great, can't wait for the next part.

Bloody fantastic stuff! Thanks for the video

Great video... will certainly watch it again for building my RFM Sherman

The photoetch on this kit really makes a nice difference ❤ Pluss the music was nice treat sounds expiring.

A truly beautiful job Andy! The interior, and indeed the entire model, are outstanding! I would love to be to build an full interior armour model, but I fear it is beyond my skill level. Same with PE parts I’m afraid. At nearly 70 years of age, my shaky hands and weakening eyesight give me enough trouble with simpler builds. I am looking forward to part 2 of this build. I have subscribed to your channel and hope to see a lot more of your work in the future. Cheers from Australia!

About those weathering effects: I think those tanks were brand new when they were deployed and should be immaculate condition as long as they survived.

Beautiful work, mate! Makes me want one of these beasts!

Great work. Last thing I'd ever want to do is put together those tracks one tread at a time.

Simply amazing!

Great job , I was a Leopard 1 driver in 1973 , 43Tbt Aesk of the Dutch army, and our tank was clean as posible in the inside and outside .

Outstanding!

That is a nice kit . Nice paint work and weathering too .

Gorgeous work!

Just gorgeous man. You make it look easy!

Another beaut of a build and video

You inspired - my kit & PE are en route. You also got me thinking about somehow putting a few greasy scale finger marks & handprints in that white interior - thoughts? Great work too, by the way!

Happy this popped up in recommendations

Fantastic work. I was a driver, gunner and commander of one of these things back in 1950 or so. I've just gotten into tank modeling and will grab one of these kits. Thanks for the memories.. Keep up the good work.

Haven’t done something this good for a Long time. I started out at 14 yrs old when I caught a dose of a life changing injury playing ugly. I’m 54 now and discovered my toy box with all the garbage inside but, gladly found that most of my humbrel enamel and other hinges still workable. Just done a harrier 1/12. Man I wished I’d have practiced a bit before going into the biggie. Now doing a couple of diaramers with kits I found. Great post. Cheers buddy.

AWESOME

Amazing attention to detail. great video.

Very nice work!

Hi just found your channel great video my friend the interior is beautifully painted and weathered thanks for sharing 👍👍

Brilliant kit(almost as good as their Panther 5019)and upgrade set not as complex as usual A/M.The dipstick for oil is the perfect touch,and the tracks are a breeze,if a long one.Want to build it again now.

Those tracks! Some modellers might look at them and say 'Think I'll do a spitfire instead' but with some patience they can make a real difference to the appearance of a model. Great stuff 👏

Awesome build keep up the good work

beautiful

Your detailing is excellent !

Wow. Amazing job. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have never seen anybody do an exploded view with a tank model befor. Way cool

Wow ... First off! ... The box art & general design is awesome. And looks like a great kit to build. I have an 80’s to mid 90’s Tamiya Lee I inherited from my dad along with half his Phantoms and others, that I’m itching to build in his honor. But I’m gonna have to put this one on my future build list.

Really cool tank, good job

Just your video for first time. And love it!! Subbed

I get the same reaction to parts that don't want to cooperate with me when I try to glue them together 😆😆😆

so sad I can only give one like! Amazing job

Was building ww2 aircrafts for like 4 years, but now I'm interested in tanks - waiting for next part!

Nice build! Wery good!)

Looks like an amazing kit. I used to enjoy building World War 2 armor, but in the last 10 years my eyesight has gotten so bad, that I can't see to work with such small parts.

Beautiful work. Your skill in dealing with photo etch parts is amazing.
