Schwerer Plattformwagen Type SSys railcar and Sturmtiger diorama (Sabre 1/35 scale model kit) 

That Uncle's video was really something. I would have never thought of painting grass. I need to try it someday.

Brilliant diorama !! Love the timber track chocks made out of foam , very realistic . The beauty of the build too me is that you have based it on an authentic photograph , great work !

Really nice...love the wood grain detail on the car's bed and the XPS logs. Good stuff!

Good idea, on youtube i never see this tipe of diorama.

This diorama has come out very well, looks fantastic. I think you are under selling yourself on the figure painting.

You make it look so easy, diorama was superb, picked up some great ideas, thank you for the videos I really enjoy them

Well done! The texture one the wooden timbers is great for being foam!

As usual, it's great work. Actually, the wooden texture of this kit is excellent. Thanks for sharing.

That’s a really cool kit and it looks amazing!!

Wonderful job, most impressive attention to details!

Brilliant job! All of the details come together to compliment that beautifully built Sturmtiger. You have inspired me to try something similar, as the theme is very interesting. Cheers from Australia!

In a word brilliant

Great Video mate. Another satisfied subscriber. Thanks for sharing your skills and ideas, they keep me from getting into a creative rut. Keep up the good work

Very beautiful, very cool, especially the railway platform is just gorgeous.

Excellent!! Wonderful attention to detail. Great imagination on the finish. Luv it!

Excellent video & job building and creating your Schwerer Plattformwagen Type SSys railcar and Sturmtiger diorama too!

Wow , this project 1/35 scale , is magnific . Thank you for sharing this great video , my friend !🥇🏆👍👏👏👏

Beautiful job as usual!!!!🔥🔥🔥

Fantastic work 👍

Great work

I enjoyed it very much, so, thank you, I love your tutorials.

Nice video Nice diorama!! 👍👍👍👍

Nice diorama !🙂

This is an outstanding build and I really like the way you treated the lines of the rail road. I think the "spare rails" might be stakes that mount in the pockets on the side of the rail car in their storage location, look at the instruction sheet at the 0:15 mark and you can see them in the upright position

Top work for a great kit 🙂👍 The railcar is nicely done, the Sturmtiger looks excellent - real nice way to display it. I have a railway ready to go for the next project, so will take your build process onboard! Well explained, detailed video - well done 👍

Great work here!

GREAT JOB! My FAV German armor piece in WW2

very well done diorama

*A bucolic diorama with a war machine, so nice!*

Fantastic 👍

Thank you! Very nice!

Nice build ! Sabre Models are great. BTW the Sturm Tiger weighed 67 tons so your choice of rail car may be a little off. Sabre Models makes a great 80 ton platformwagen.

The spare pieces of Rail you mention during the building are the vertical pieces you left out. This type of rail car is called Rungenwagen in German and those vertical pieces of metal are called the Rungen. They always came with the Railcar and could be stores away if not in used/ easily removed for loading. Great build as usual!

This is cool, good job.

Great job. 👍

very nice man! i'm from holland and i like the military (ww2) vehicles and the diorama's! keep up the good work!

Amazing

Genius mate 👏

Hello Rob from model Nerd I like your models I have watched a few of your diorama builds nice airbrushing on the sturm tiger model , I have been modeling since I was a teenager. Martin

Wow, this makes me want to try and restart my Strurmtiger (even tho I know better). Thats a great diorama, I really like the scene. Thanks!

Merci pour ce partage, je le suis régalé 👍👍

Impressive

Nice! Very inspirational! :)

Inspiring as usual ✌🇨🇦✌

nice!

A rare image of a storm tiger and maus

superbe dio

I love how he says dkl instead of decal (Not trying to be rude that is just his accent BTW love that accent)

Came out great,l myself to sharpen it up, l would of put wood around the base to finishes it off, but still a great looking display

This is another great video 📹 but I think 🤔 you created work for yourself by not painting the track prior to fitting 😉?? It seemed a funny way of going about this diorama, the result is great and the idea pretty good....captured German armour being railed away. 👍

Lovely build, what grass applicator do you use.

Looks good! Did you get the keep off idea from Tiger 131 restoration? I saw that the other day on the front of the restoration photos it looked interesting to have as a wee detail i thought myself! I always paint my grass to, I like bronze green as a base

Brilliant build. If I have one criticism, it is that the highlights on the figure's uniform are too light it makes it look like semi-gloss.

Wonderful work it looks really great and so real except for the chains. I don’t believe they would chain it down that way they would use the shackles on the front and the rear.

This is awesome can you do a Iwo Jima model with tanks?

The fact that a train can carry a sturmtiger amazes me the weight of that tank

Wow!!!!!!

Great build thats for sure ! But you made a major mistake the SSys is made for 50 tons Sturmtigerweight is 65 tons actually you need a SSyms waggon with 3 axles per side that was made to transport up to 80 tons .SSys are made for transporting heavy loads as well but the heaviest tank that could be load was the Panther .That might sound a little nerdy but believe me Reichsbahner are way back more nerdy than I am

Really nice tutorial.. I hope you wont mind if i do one myself?

What size ballast did you use? Am considering getting a Trumpeter railcar sometime and might use it rather than the display base included in the kit.

where can i buy one of these kits plz

Please link the video on how to make the trees!!!!!!

Were real track sleepers made of wood on WWII-era rail lines? If so, why did you choose to not paint them as wooden? They look like modern times sleepers of the concrete variety. Aslso, how did you repair the warped sleeper you showed? Would have been nice to see or hear how you corrected the problem. Thanks.

I really like the execution, very much, but there are a couple of plausibility issues that I feel a bit of a heel for mentioning, but just in case it's of use to someone.... The SSys is a 50 ton car, which is OK for a Panther, but a Sturmtiger weighs more than that (68 t). It needs the 80-ton SSyms 3-axle car. Even then, in order to transport the Tiger, or anything built on its chassis, on European railways it was necessary to remove the outermost road wheels and change the tracks to the narrower transport track. I know this is supposed to be an unofficial transportation, but the Americans were well aware of the fact that the width restrictions were far from being arbitrary - if the load on a flat car is allowed to overhang the sides it will foul signals, other trains, platform edges and, most importantly, the sides of tunnels as the train passes through. The British tanks were all designed to be transported on rail in Britain, which is why they are all so narrow, so I doubt they would be unaware either.

🤝👌👍👏

Great modelling, but they would never have chained the tank down like that. The one in the front would break the gun mechanism. The one slung over that back does nothing to keep the tank on the wagon. The chains should pass through the clevises on the corners of the hull in a criss cross pattern and be anchored to the corners of the wagon. This will keep the tank from moving both laterally and linearly on the deck. For me it breaks the realism of an otherwise superbly done vignette.

For the Sturmtiger they had to use the Ssyms, because the ssys had only 50 tons max loading, the SSyms 80

Good model but not historically Connecticut the SSys could only Curry 50 tons and the Sturmtiger weighs 65 tons. You World habe to Tage the one Witz the 6 axes. But still a great diorama.

tank is too big for the rail car, a special rail car would have been needed to move that vehicle

Rails lack bolt details, Miniart make a railway section which is better.
