Takom 1/16 Panzer I - Full Build
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hi folks and welcome to my latest Full Build Video, the Takom Pz.kpfw.Ia in 1/16 scale.
I hope you guys enjoy the video, I refined my weathering and hairspray chipping a lot during the process, trying some new things and taking a few risks ( why play it safe? ) and I hope you find the quality of the work up to my usual standard.
In fact I'm working hard on eradicating some of the problems I face filming with a phone, like camera shake and positioning. I want to provide you with the best content I can.
I now have a Patreon, find it here

the tank is very nice
The way you manage to make the panzer gray look so realistic and absolutely not boring leaves me litteraly speachless.
This is both motivating and intimidating at the same time.

Please don't be put off ! The kit builds itself and has a great scope for trying new techniques
UNREAL, or actually, REAL! Holy crap! You sir are a master!

Thankyou, Its hard sometimes to remember when I finally get to editing what psi I used so I tend to stick to 20-25 unless I need some special fx or it's a very thick paint. I dont think I mention a lot or ratios but if it's still helpful I'm happy
Outstanding build again my friend, the mud effect turned out perfect in my opinion😉🤓👍💙stay safe guys and keep the builds coming👍

Nice job. For wood handles, I have painted the handle with a light brown and then burnt sienna oil paint, left to dry for a while and then “dry brushed” off with a clean brush. It leaves a nice stain. For rusty exhaust, baking soda can be used for a nice effect, but care must be used because too much baking soda just builds up into a mess.
Great model and inspiring work

I to I’m trying to get back into model making, so much has changed since my last build about 40 years ago. I’ve not seen you before but I loved the detail you went through on that build, you’re very easy to listen to and all the stages are easy to follow so I will be following you for more hints as I try to get back into the hobby I loved years ago. Brilliant thank you very much.

a 1/16 Pz I is tiny in comparison to other 1/16 scale German Panzer RC/Models, such as Hooben's RC "Maus" which is the biggest you'll find on the market in 1/16.

JUST ABSOLUTELY AMAZING the attention to detail is out of this world you have made that model so much more with all the detail you have added it's like a miniature of the real thing you half expect to see little men jump into the tank and drive it away as it looks that real well-done sir. Plus you have made the video interesting in the way you filmed it and overdubbing top marks have subscribed and liked.
