BUILD, UPGRADE, MODIFY, IMPROVE Stock Styrene Figures (1/35, Tamiya) 

Some great tips in here, thanks!

Very nice video. I like your humoristic way of telling things. The helmets in my opinion are still sitting a bit to high on the head. What is your experience with chopping of a bit of the scalps of the hornet heads to fit into the helmets?

I've become pretty good at figure modulation over the years, to the point where I can sculpt entire arms and legs; but I enjoy learning from videos like yours, I am going to use the yogurt foil technique .

I like the way you built the weapons straps, very good, simple and cheap way👌 looking forward to your painting video🤓

Hey man nice work but when you trim those heads you could also add some chin straps to those helmets, think you forgot them??🙃

Me gustaria aaber que figuras has puesto mandame foto. Del kit por favor

I like Hornet but the heads are way bigger than 1/35 scale

Nice to see these ancient techniques in a modern video. In this way, the knowledge about it is not finally lost in the age of "you just have to reach for the shelves". However, the helmets do not want to fit on the heads at all, at least for my eyes. They sit considerably too high as the heads are quite simply too large in proportion to these Tamiya figures, giving a rather ridiculous overall impression. I'm not saying that to badmouth the figures in any way, as they undoubtedly get a definite upgrade here. To avoid such dimensional pitfalls, I just prime the assembled figures in a medium grey at first and then view them from a distance in low light. Since one primarily perceives the outlines, proportional errors or unrealistic poses immediately catch the eye. Thx for sharing.

Oy! I'm from 1971 too 😂 great video, keep up the good work

I always used tape for straps but now I’ve found a different way!! I can’t wait to try it out! A quick detail I add to helmets is to add the texture to them. I take tamiya filler and mix it with extra thin until it’s a little thicker then water and dab it on the helmets with a stiff bristled brush. You wouldn’t think it would add much but it does.

Nice but why are the helmets so high up on their heads?

Helmets seem to be floating not resting.. moment of explosion?

Just found your channel and I am impressed. You do a fantastic job on basic figure modeling in a short amount of time. 😊

Great information.

Dude, can’t make a whistle outta sh*t!!!😂😂😂 Totally Subbed!!!👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

Your meticulous attention to detail is great! Two suggestions?:1) if you have a running figure the boot on the ground should be bent so the toe of the shoe is on the ground and the heel is slightly raised from the ground.2) Some of the helmets appear to be sitting too high on the head. If you look at photos of helmeted German soldiers you'll see that for the most part their ears are not visible. Hope I didn't offend you. I taught modeling the human figure so maybe I'm too picky?

as a Patreon for this channel i tell you these videos are good, but for $5 dollars a month the added detail and technique step by step is amazing. think of the videos as 10% of the iceberg. underneath in Patreon land its a whole detailed world.

„…Licking the tools is no bueno“ 🤣

As well as a great tutorial I now have a delightful new saying “you can’t make a whistle out of shit” 😂😂I have never heard that before thanks mate

I love your passion (and patience) for the small details, you have a great eye for details.

The plastic helmets fit the resin heads very badly. They all sit too high on the head. I would fix that.

You did wonderful brother very beautiful handiwork

Some very good advice here. Gald I have found you.

Madonna, el macellaio de Sessana! Excellent work Rener. You seem seriously inspired. Good, good, good!

Hi buddy great video on how to convert figures will come in real handy. Cheers Gary 🇬🇧

Now this is what I call convincing poses! Very well done pal 👍

Great work my friend,the figures look much better 👍

Double D, fantastic conv., super inspirational!

great tutorial for new ideas thx from your Patreon

Hi take close look to proper attach of the equipment - mp40 pouches , canteen and other . There is specifically way to attach them :)

One of the most informative and helpful videos to guide a figure modeler in modifying figures! Thank you!

Great video. Bravo Diorama Devil!

Nice video. One common issue is the hands don’t hold the weapon fully or naturally. So the hands need attention, too.

Helmets heroes

Brilliant bro....

Amputace jsou tak brutální 😂 👍 Výsledek je parádní 🎖

Very useful video. Thank you!👍

Very nice. thx

I love your work mate but I think you need to chop off their heads a touch. Unless they are cone heads the helmets seem to be a little bit too high…. ❤😂😊

I would like to know how would you do a shoe that needs the toe of it bent?

Interesting and pleasing video 👍

Perfect Video
