A lot of my videos are reviews of the many model kits I have in my stash, plus I do reviews of model kits I have already built. I have a few specials that I have done on weathering techniques and much more planed in the future. I was thinking about also doing a couple of other things, maybe a video showing a bit around where I live, there are a couple of cool historic things here. I release Videos twice a week, on Wednesday and Sunday, and sometimes put a special one between there when I get the time.

Nice review. I’ve had a chance to build a kit from hobby boss. They put out a lot of interesting variants that other companies haven’t model yet. Should be a fun build.
Don’t hold the models up off camera; pay attention to what you’re filming. And don’t flip through the instruction sheets photographed so small that we can’t even see what you’re talking about. Instead, show the models CLOSE UP. That’s what we want to see. You didn’t think about it much, did you?
I do think about it but seeing what I am filming is not such an easy thing. I am trying to improve though and being told this stuff can only help me get better.
the tank came with two machineguns only there is'nt any missing ,it was to have three machine guns but the crews complained that there is not enough space in the crampt compartment ,so it was decided to juggle one around ,for internal selfdefense or as anti air defense/ground defense .First to prototypes were American build and shipped with out the turrets to the Soviet union , US changed the law on dealing with the Siviet Union and should never have left but they were by a couple off days to late Cristie knew this and shipped them as Tractors hence no turrets .
Dann sie haben nicht die anderen teil davon gesehen. Das war ein reaction to a commentar. Original here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-24R5GAyiv3I.html
This is next up on my build list and it’s waited long enough..Looks a good kit to build..I built Zvezda’s 1/35 T-26 and that was a lovely build and there’s a short vid on it on my humble little channel.. Best of luck with your build of the Panther/D and all the best from the U.K🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
Great looking kit, and review, I will have to see if it's available here in England. That's a great tip about google lens, can't believe I've never heard of it before..I'll be using it from now on on my Zvezda kits!
@@mullinscl Nothing a bit of hard work won't fix, Ive had much worse kits from that part of the world...! The aftermarket deck would be a good addition though
Okay, M35A2 was introduced in the 60's and had multifuel engines, I drove them, I worked on them, and now I own one, a 1967 Kaiser/Jeep M35A2 with a Continental LDT-465-1D engine The M35A2 is commonly powered by an LDT 465 engine, made by either Continental Motors Company, Hercules, or White Motor Company. It is an in-line, 478-cubic-inch (7.8 L), six-cylinder, turbocharged multifuel engine developing 134 bhp
I also drove one for a little while when I was in the Army in Fort Hood. I was actually a M1A1 crewman but we all had to do our time in support. Honestly I don't know if it was an A2 but I know it was very old and we ended up turning it in for a 5 ton in '99
And being that the "better" Kenetic kit also has mistakes from what I read, I don't see the point of spending three times more if this one is good enough
If you have an airbrush you can seal all the decals in with the clear floor polish or rattle can(pledge, but it's not available anymore) Finescale Modeller has a comparison video. O
I used to not fill and sand at all. Just too much at work and not having a lot of free time it was all just speed builds and I got what I got out of the box. I'm trying now to do a more thourough job with things though. Thanks for watching
First, of course it's a rebox of Monogram because at one point they were under the same management. Old Monogram kits are also not all that bad, or at least I have seen far worse from MPM and Academy not to mention others. The Kinetic kit is better of course but also costs more than three times as much as this one and as I have said many times I can't afford for every kit to be over 60 Euro. I don't get paid enough for that. On top of that the Kinetic kit also has problems like the canopy, waisting, and the wheel bays are not very detailed
Thanks for sharing. The kit has a major issue. The windshield and canopy of the M2K are blown. The windshield and canopy of the kit do not reflect this. Also, the lower canopy line follows on rearward from the windshield. It's a complete mess. In reality the lower canopy line dips substantially from the windshield. To make this kit a halfway accurate model requires a lot of effort. It can be done though.
So the shape if the cockpit frame around the canopy is wrong? I didn't see that really. I just like the aircraft and am not so familiar with the lines of it to be able to tell that it's wrong
@@mullinsclThe easiest way to get a result that vaguely resembles the actual windscreen and canopy would be to lightly sand the lower sides of the windscreen slightly inward and do the same with the fuselage where the windscreen is attached to. That would at least give the windscreen that blown look. I actually have this kit lying around somewhere. I think I might give it a go.
I know there are better, mostly the one from Meng and surprisingly to me the one from Academy but they cost more than I can afford so I will just do a little extra here
@@mullinscl where did you buy that kit? Was it a hobby lobby by any chance? If so what other world war II aircraft kits do they have right now? Thanks for the info.
@@walterhammond290 No. I live in Germany. I got this from our hobby shop about 20 km from me. A lot of my kits though I get from Ebay. Often find people there getting rid if thier stash. Even found a Bishop that was water damaged but I threw the box and instructions away. The decals were in a bag so luck there. New instructions I downloaded from scalemates . Cost me like 15 bucks for a 70 dollar kit. When I lived in the states I would go to Michael's or Hobby Lobby though but my favorite place to get kits was ordering from Squadron
A lot of things are always reboxed and by Tamiya thier reboxes are usually still good kits but that is not so by other companies that like to use old molds that aren't really good anymore
This kit is an old favorite of mine. I've bought at least 6 over the decades, but only finished 2. One in Japanese service ,the other in Chinese service. I usually end up giving it away to friends.
Yeah. It's taking forever due to having to move a couple of years ago, having to repair both the AA Car and the K5E, and waiting om the weather to work on stuff. I did get the base built last year though and it's huge
