Star Wars AT-ST Raider from The Mandalorian | Bandai 1/48 

Thanks @Model Nerd !

Thankyou Sean !

Thanks ! You totally should !

Thanks my freind!

Thanks @modkits ! 🙏

Hell yes, It makes for a much more visually impactful model

It is defo way more interesting, I am still planning to do one in WW2 German Ambush camo though :))

I'm in the middle of a custom build right now. I've added heavier guns to the chin, scratch built Gatling laser pods in place of the original weapons, and a commander's cupola from a 1:48 Panther tank w/ a heavy repeating blaster on the ring mount on top. I'm also adding some heavier armor around the cockpit. She's going to be painted in a camo of Ghost Grey overlaid by German Grey tiger stripes, with a snarling mouth & 4 eyes. I even have some Aurebesh (Star Wars alphabet) decals to spell out her name: "Bad Kitty". I plan to add an armored glass effect in each of the 2 cockpit windows. I still need to get a 1:48 Stormtrooper to stand in the commander's cupola.

Arent the “eyes” supposed to glow?

@@kylesawkon4074 not if the lights are off

I hope you enjoy the video Mikuláš

Sure I did! Now I really need to hold myself back not to fall into that Bandai box! Very inspiring video. I wouldn´t mind to see more Star Wars models from you. I think it is great relax from the "rules" of making regular AFVs/planes/ships.

@@mikulas979 I agree with Mikulás; Sci-Fi kit building allows me to unleash my creative (and moderately crazy) imagination far more than historical modeling because you don't (generally) run into many rivet counters.

Thanks Ben !

I'm glad to hear it @ekmad 😊

Thankyou Christian, much appreciated 🙏

Thanks Mark, MRP are a delight to spray. When I have some spare pennies I'll be getting some more

Thank you so much 😀

Thankyou mate !

Thanks VMS ! 🍻

They are extremely good. I'll be getting another one when I have some spare pennies. Maybe a y wing.

Thanks Nigel ! I'm really pleased with it ☺

Many thanks Dave !

Thanks Peter ! There are a few that have been done this way before me, but I loved how the raider looked and its nice to do something a bit different !

@@lpjmodels do it the way YOU want it to be! Model on!

Thanks Gustaf, best of luck my freind !

Thanks Bob ! I think a lot of folks wish Bandai did military stuff 😀 that sounds like a cool idea, that's almost moving into Ma.k territory too.

Happy new year !

Cheers Aaron ! 🍻

Thanks Johnny, it means a lot !

Thanks Pedro, Happy new year 🎉

Thankyou John

Thanks Steven ! It made sense to use multiple layers, from the imperials using it, then it being borrowed and probably languishing somewhere for a bit, till its final stumble into the bog. Lots of room for chipping 😀

Thanks mate!

Go on, you know you want to

Thanks so much Ricky, I can highly reccomended this one

Thanks Simon 😀

Thanks Jan ! One of my best so far definately

Thanks Mark !

Thanks Cliff ! It's nice to savour the build though? I have always been quick with things and it used to get me in all sorts of bother 🙃

@@lpjmodels more a matter of being a perfectionist and not being proficient with a lot of skill sets. Have to learn as I go and that includes a lot of video tutorials 🙂

Thanks Ste !

Merci Lag, much appreciated

Thanks Sera ! 🍻

Thankyou Pete. Very pleased with this one

It's good to know I'm heading in the right direction ! Thanks CybeisRS for the kind words 😀

Thanks Fernando, go for it 😀

Thanks Oz ! Much appreciated

Cheers Tim !

Thanks for taking the time to check out a new channel !

Thanks a lot Brett !

Thankyou Robbo ! I wanted to go into more detail with the lettering but I didn't want the video to end up too long.. tactical cuts. Happy new year my friend

Thanks Brendan, I tried to be logical with the foliage. Glad it worked 🤘

Thanks Mark !

Thanks Robert, I like doing different things now and again, makes things more interesting on the bench sometimes

Thanks mate, glad you like it !

@@lpjmodels hey no problem mate :)

Cheers Zeroid 🍻

It's the mvp at the moment, till I find something else !

Thankyou !

Thanks Radu ! Glad you like it

Thanks @Sprue Fascination Channel !

Cheers Freddy !

Thanks Scott, much appreciated.. maybe more SW in the future?

@@lpjmodels Yeah! I really would like to build this one now that I've seen yours.🍻

Thanks Vivian, trying to get a good balance and finding more chilled tracks like this is hard !

Thankyou Phillip ! Much appreciated 🙏

Thanks Jeff !

Thanks Peter ! Nice to make a change now and again, keep things fresh

Thanks Trooper ! 🍻

Live long and prosper 🖖

@@lpjmodels winter is coming

Thanks Jason !

Cheers Lawson, glad you found it useful

Thanks Ken ! If this link works, this was a very helpful image images.app.goo.gl/KCcwUAEd8ZPF1VDd8 Also as someone pointed out to me the right leg ( the semi painted one ) is supposed to be a brown colour.

@@lpjmodels thank you! I found a few other images from a cardboard cutout that’s available. I’d like to mention your channel and paint scheme in my RU-vid build video, is that ok with you? You’re an amazing artist!

I hope you had a great birthday Joaquim, thankyou for the very kind words ! 😊

Thankyou Francisco 😀

Thanks Simon! They are great kits you won't be dissapointed

I appreciate the no glue thing, but I'd rather use it when I can, especially when it comes to certain seam lines that oils could penetrate and perhaps mess with the Plastic

Thankyou Ferbie ! I always try to make whatever I'm building as authentic as I can, it doesn't always work but I'll give it a good go. Thanks for your continued support ! And happy new year 🎉

Thanks man ! I thought this one might catch your eye , hope alls well 😀

@@lpjmodels ha ha! Yes, it did! And I still have your Falcon hanging on my wall. Cheers man. ✌😎

Thanks for the kind words JC885, 😀 I'm not really into gundam unfortunately. I see some great ones built but never had the urge to make one. There seems to be a lot more rules with bandai kits than my usual niche which is a bit surprising, the glue thing seems hotly contested. I'm still going to use glue on any future kits tho.

@@lpjmodels Ah, okay. You’re free to do whatever you want. Though I still hope you check it out one day. You know, in the Gunpla community, we have a saying: ‘Gunpla is freedom’ basically build what you want, the way you want to do it. If you want to use glue, then fine, no one’s going to stop you. Just be sure to keep it out of moving parts! (Which there are a lot of in Gundam kits btw).

Only one way to find out !

@@lpjmodels Ordered one a few hours ago. Inexpensive enough for "practice makes perfect"

Thanks Derek ! That's a cool ship, the revell one or the Bandai one?

@@lpjmodels Revell

Not the subject matter, quality of moulding, quality of fit?

@@lpjmodels I was thinking this was like gunpla which when putting it together you don't need glue

@@andrewbrown9981 I don't care I wanted to use glue, I don't think it's important no, or are you gatekeeping?

@@lpjmodels no I'm not I was just stating my favorite part of bandai models

Thanks Thierry! I completely forgot about the leather tutorial, yes of course I'll make it one of the next ones.

@@lpjmodels No Stress James :-) héhé ...
