Weld seams or weld beads or just welds are one of the most important details on armor models. Because if you think about it, every tank is made from thick steel plates welded together (except those archaic riveted tanks of course).
Therefore I believe a well recreated weld detail can add lots of authenticity to our miniature replicas. There are many welding techniques used by armor modellers: lead wire, stretched sprue or epoxy putty to name a few. From my experience the best results can be obtained using two-part epoxy putty.
Unfortunately, bad welds can ruin the entire model and let's be honest, this technique isn't the easiest and takes a bit of practice to get it right. I hope this video will help you to become a better scale welder!
