Early video

This video turned out longer than I expected, but that's not a bad thing, right? 

As I'm making this post, the video quality is still processing and it takes longer than usual. But I'm g...

My friends, the early video is ready and uploading. It'll take a few hours until it's ready and processed in a watchable resolution, and I'll drop it here for you ASAP! :)

Field applied camouflage

(Patreon was broken and wouldn't upload pictures, but seems to be working now)

My friends, here's my attempt at the hastily applied DAK Yellow Brown. The historical photo shows how roughly it...

Basic colors done!

My friends, may I present to you: not Panzer Grey, not Panzer Denim Blue, but Panzer... Dust? 🤔 

This is the result of many hours of spraying because the model is too large... when I ...

Nothing beats the smell of Mr. Leveling Thinner!

My friends, here's some slow progress. Slow because everything takes way too long on such a large and complex model... except priming! You see, I decided to live dangerously again and used black Mr...

Whoah, I didn't narrate in a while... 3 or 4 weeks! Anyway, let the basic modelling skills begin!

Alright, proper photos and everything, but please note that the table where I take those has a slightly "curvy" surface... and the Karl Mortar is so long that it sort of levitates on that table :)&...

Finally ready for painting!

My friends, after much gluing, sanding, and scraping off those ever-present seam lines, the Morser Karl is ready for the fun stuff! 

I kept the hand rails until the very end, and they we...

Let's talk about some important changes :)

Happy new year everyone! Please watch or at least listen to the first few minutes of this video to know what's up and how we'll proceed from this point onward... or watch/listen to the entire thing...

Q&A - 40 minutes of New Year's cheer!

Almost there!

My friends, here's some progress from yesterday. Holidays went pretty smoothly so I had more energy than usual for modelling - also, I missed the workbench! :) 

Again, just like any othe...

Q&A

My friends, the last video of this year will be about anything you'd like to know, so  post your questions here!

This was the worst part (so far, lol)

My friends! Oh, how naive I was to think that I'll assemble the mortar on Tuesday, the cradle on Wednesday, the loading tray on Thursday, and finish the walkways today! 

The cradle is as...

Heavy mortar goes pew pew

My friends, the main character of this anime is ready to blow! Holding the individual components, such as the mortar, or the cradle underneath, in your hand lets you really appreciate the term "sup...

Gluing tons of parts together

My friends, I apologize for the delayed update, but I've been busy getting ready for the holidays, and most of the workload on the Karl was gluing details to the hull. 

Interestingly, pr...

Now it looks like a ship!

My friends, the hull is slowly growing. It comes along pretty quickly when you're just snapping parts out of the sprue and gluing them together! However, when it comes to filling, sanding, texturin...

It's huge!

My friends, I started the build by getting the boring parts out of the way ASAP :) 

There's a lot of wheels to clean and assemble. Because of this, I employed an AC drill for the first t...

So what's next?

Boom, it's a long boi! 

I bought Masterclub metal tracks for it as well as some rudimentary PE from Eduard - that's all I could find in the aftermarket department!

This is a model ...

Finish line!

My friends, painting the figures took longer than I expected. My plan was to paint them in one day but I was finishing them until yesterday afternoon, but the important thing is - the diorama is no...

My friends, today was a productive day and the terrain is now ready!

My friends, here's a simple base for the technical truck. A mountain road somewhere in Afghanistan.
