You're a lucky man, Andy! You made your hobby your profession! It's pretty amazing what great progress tanks have taken from WW I to WW II and in the long time after. Somehow I start to like these "mansions on tracks". Will we all get to know if and when you'll be shipping outside the US? Kutgw! Greetz from Germany. :) Jens

I am a Retired English Police Officer living in Oklahoma. My Grandfather Served in the First World War in the Royal Tank Corps (Mk IV's). I still have his "Service Record" and his "De-Mob" papers. Really considering making the "Male" version of this Tank in his honor, shame they are in such short supply at the moment. Thanks for a great video.

looks like a fun and beautiful kit to built.

@vadimm3652 6 лет назад

Greetings andy. About About a month ago I got a model u505 from msi in chicago and from when this video is posted I'm 11, but really inch to modeling and I have seen a lot of your videos, and it really got me into getting model tanks, planes and I just ww2 stuff. So thanks for the amazing content keep up the work

@blakethomas8698 8 лет назад

@johntvrdy4473 8 лет назад

Nice video, I like the fact that you are going on line with your model shop. I look forward to doing business.

@Brera011 8 лет назад

Great build of a great model. About six moths ago I've build the Tamiya MKIV male tank. Nice model too, but not so complicated as the Takom. Not a challenge in fact. Real challenges are the Tamiya Dragon U.S. tank transporter and the Italeri M4A3E8 "Fury" tank. First one because of the enormous amount of parts an detail, second one because of poor instructions and very fragile suspension.

@daveclarke4609 8 лет назад

The trick is building these in a variety of scales + variants. Work out vanishing points and place models according to size on diorama. Gives huge depth

@EMTBonsai 4 года назад

I'm looking for this mk 1 now after building the takom mk4 2 in 1 special edition kit! Its stunning even the British design tracks are as good in a scale model! Its unbelievable! Shame you don't get much British decals with the mk4 kit you get Loadster that's it rest in German print! But the engli flag looks better painted on so it's a nice personal touch for each British modeler!

I hate myself for being excited to be the 1000th like! Anyway, from one miniaturist to another, one giant (but very small) high five! BRAVO (I am making a scratch-built steel version of a similar British Tank for a short film, so this was very useful). Thank you, and keep up the great work.

@rogermullins7877 5 лет назад

I'm a complete novice at this. The question is not intended to be a criticism, rather some required guidance. Would it be reasonable or not, to drill out the barrels of the machine guns. My eyes keep being drawn to the barrel tips.. Love the few Vids I've watched so far.

@highflyFinn 5 лет назад

I've found other yourubers useing hypodermic needles as a small drill in order to do so although I have never done it myself

@rogermullins7877 5 лет назад

@@highflyFinn Thank you for the reply. However it raises more questions. I note that you haven't used Hypodermic needles. 1). The tip of a needle has one bevelled edge. Curious if this affects the concentricity of the hole to the outer diameter of the gun barrel? 2). Is the needle heated up prior to pressing it on the barrel tip? Thanks for your understanding.

@XLDoubleDouble 7 лет назад

Instead on using glue to hold the wheels in place, you could a small bit of bluetack to hold them.

@allanstott6999 7 лет назад

Andy, would you do a video build of the Dragon Panther Ersatz M10 if at all possible please? I'm looking at purchasing this and would love to see you put it together first, and maybe give some thoughts on the original idea and result of the conversion during wwII.

@Warewolf943 8 лет назад

Is there any chance we could see something like an IDF Centurion or Merkava so you could show off some sand/dust weathering? :)

@Motoruven 5 лет назад

I love these first world war tanks for their historical value, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to operate, drive and certainly not fight in one these things. Living hell for the crews.

@madcowrebel4216 8 лет назад

Personally, I think it needs some serious weathering. I also think that the female tank design is just plan ugly. Wagon wheels and all. But the actual tooling and molding quality is excellent. Maybe I'll pick up the male version. Nice to hear about the shop, keep up the great work.

@AndysHobbyHeadquarters 8 лет назад

+Mad Cow Rebel oh yes it will be seriously weathered once I figure out the diorama for it , this was more of a build review of the Tank , Thanks for watching.

@ferrusmanus184 4 года назад

Did they make the model so the turrets could move?

@bennyandersen9272 3 года назад

I was wondering about that too. What use is the polycap if the shield is glued to the side of the compartment? I had a look at the instructions and noted that the MG-mount is connected to the floor via this polycap.

@benpeck-saxophone7327 8 лет назад

sorry Andy, i probably didn't explain myself correctly. I have been doing this hobby for around 3 months now and I am really starting to go off it because I am yet to produce a model. I have spent hundreds of pounds on the hobby including a vast array of paints and an airbrush and compressor. I'm pretty sure I want to continue but I was just wandering how to stay focused and motivated on your model. Gaming King

@AndysHobbyHeadquarters 8 лет назад

GamingKing oh I see, I don't allow myself to start something till Im sure I will finish it, I love painting and weathering , alot more then building, So I build usually less part kits so I can get to painting .

Yes there were designed with the thought that it would assist in turning. However I will point out the channel Andy uses for some references needed. Search for "The Tank Museum" It is the channel of the Bovington tank museum in England. (the title of the video is "Tank Chats #18 Mark I"
