[1] Sturmgeschütz IV - StuG IV (Tamiya) - Step by Step / Paso a Paso 

Welcome back!

Glad to help!

I got a StuG III very recently, and right now I'm editing the Painting process video of the StuG IV, so stay tuned! I think by Sunday it'll be ready

I'm looking forward to seeing the paint process and have fun with the StuG III.

Classic tamiya armour kit👍

It's a nice kit! I'll do my best to keep making videos like this one, but they are really time consuming, expensive and not very profitable, and some times real life gets on the way... Anyway, thank you for taking your time to watch my videos and sorry for the small rant :)

🚲 Says '76 at the front of the video.

Sorry, but a magician never reveals his secrets! 🎩 🐰 Thank you for visiting my channel and taking your time to comment 🤓

Is not really "music", rather an ossessive rhytm

You're very kind :)

+Sergio Solo why no paints ? and decals attached

It's a work in progress. Just wanted to share the building process in this video

+Sergio Solo oh OK well my friend keep up the good work and God speed

I do not speak any languages except Russian, yet types in english ;)

+валерий калиниченко I'm glad you found it useful, Valery! Thank you for taking the time to translate your comment :)

+Marko Senli Well, there's this little thing called Google translator :P I guess that's what she used

We all make mistakes :)

I know the feeling! So many cool projects, so little time :)

In finland its a super cheap model

@@bloro2812 As a Finn who just picked up the hobby again, I am glad to hear that. :)

Thanks!

🚲 Really.

Yes I did! I always thought that the old one was too long, not very catchy and specially hard to pronounce for most of my viewers

Good to know :) by the way would you recomend the kit ? Is it any good ?

It's great for beginners! Keep in mind that the molds are 40 years old, but you can find it very (VERY) cheap and with some effort you'll have a winner :)

All right! Thank you

Yes drill a hole on the MG. Add a round MG magazine. Replace the wire with a real wire (or one in cutton glued as it was real wire) Add the fuel intake covers on the left side of the hull. (for some reason NO Tamiya Pzkmpf IV hulls have the correct fueltank covers) Next the covers for the gear system placed outside of the tank in the front hull all too small on all their Pzkmpf IV hulls too. Next between the boggies holding the small double paired road whells actual were a thick track in the hole length of the hull.

This is the first video in the series. I paint it in the second video and weather it in the third one

Thanks!

+Tommy Lakasi Tommy, please choose the one you like the most. Both of them are good and easy to build kits

Sergio Solo what would the stug III B be matched up with, cuase im planning to buy the stug III B and a m5a1 or a stug IV and shermans, what would be a better match up?

Sorry, I do not know

which one would you like more? a stug IV with sherman, or stug III B with m5a1, just search them up

StuG B was very early war, the best pairing would be anything French, The Crusader, Matilda, M3 Lee/Grant and early Soviet T-34/76s and KVs

Zer0megaXX I normally put a small staple through the attaching bit of the track if they start to pull apart, it seems to keep them together quite well 👍

🚲 I heat up a flathead screwdriver and mush the joining pins into one blob.🔥🗡

I'd say the StuG IV is better for beginners. It doesn't have interior or photo etched parts

Well it is all about realism. Not all soldiers warn the authorized uniform and equipment. That will be obviously for you just after very few search for german wartime pictures. So Tamiya had decided that their models schall reflect that reality. Actual if you look in old Tamiya catalogs you will find that all early models always worn the authorized uniforms and that actual removed the realistic from their scale figure models. :-)

Tamiya Extra Thin Cement

Definitely 👍I had no problem with fitting nor seam lines, and the number of parts is pretty low

would you recommend this or the tamiya m8? and would this be easy to brush paint? because im afraid that it will be hard to paint in corners, so which kit is better beginner and which kit is easier to paint

I've built just a few kits, so I can only recommend them based on my short experience. From Tamiya, I think the T-62A is easier to paint than the StuG IV. Both are easy to build

will the stug IV stil be easy to paint for beginners? cuas ei cant find the t-62 on amazon since i live in can and i m ight be able to find it in the local hobby store near my house

nvm i found it

No. It's an old Tamiya kit, from 1976

Sergio Solo I checked the model I recently got and It had the same parts and sprues from this video

Academy copied Tamiya's sprues. They released their kit in 1987

Sergio Solo oh ok

Thank you! No, I haven't :)

+Sergio Solo it's really good

Normal it is about age of the forms and how old the forms was created. In the old days it was much harder to do a very detailded form (today with 3D printers everything is much easier and therefore much cheaper to create) Next if the form is old it is worn out and not so rich in details as early ones. And actual I have an very early one of the same kit and I can clearly see that some of the details are not so good as then. In particualar the loader is not looking as great now as it did when the form was new. Next it is also about supply and demand. Please understand that a form only can be used for x amount of models before it is to much warn up. Sometimes the forms is resold to another producer there dont have the same quality demands and he then produce some models cheaper but more bad and often too in a more lousy plastic quality. I hope this answered your qusetion. :-)

Henrik H thanks Henrik, I’ve learnt from your explanation

So, you didn't find the rest of the videos. C'mon man

Check the next part. I did that
