What a box! What a kit! I guess more parts than a kit of a Grant with individual rivets! 😉 Also: Don't get me wrong but I hear the carpet monster giggling😁
Have you done build video series (not livestreams) before and I’ve just missed them? This looks ideal for breaking up into multiple videos especially considering the required painting between assemblies. Say, engine and drivetrain one video, the rest of the interior next, then painting, then running gear, then surface detail, and finally final assembly (and eventual painting). Depends on whether the torsion bars have to go in first of course. Speaking of the torsion bars, I can’t quite tell from looking at the parts trees if the torsion bars will be functional, in other words will the finished model be amenable for use in a recovery diorama. I know how much you love building dioramas, almost as much as you love photoetch and painting but this model practically begs to be in a diorama.
I am pretty sure I've done multi part videos before. In general it just doesn't seem like it'd be worth it. Maybe shorter videos is better for those with short attention spans. But then, who's to say they'll be back for the next part in however many weeks. The build video for this kit might not actually be that much longer than any other 35th scale video. I just see the build time taking a while. The instructions do look like the torsion bars might actually be functional. I can't quite tell, but the link and length tracks would limit the usefulness of working torsion bars anyway. Also, I don't know why people keep saying I don't like painting.
