3.7cm PaK 35/36 destroyed house diorama (Tamiya 1/35 scale model)

Рет қаралды 549,191

Күн бұрын

Build of Tamiya's 3.7cm anti-tank gun and a small diorama featuring a scratch built destroyed building. The PaK 35/36 anti-tank gun first appeared in 1934 and was used in the Spanish Civil War. It was Germany's most numerous anti-tank weapon at the start of World War 2, though even as early as 1940 it was starting to prove ineffective against newer Allied tanks. During the invasion of the Soviet Union the Pak 35/36 was unable to damage the new T-34 and KV-1 tanks, but was still responsible for destroying hundreds of older tanks. Despite its obsolescence the weapon continued to be used throughout the war. The Tamiya Pak 35 kit is available in various forms: amzn.to/38BhKP3

An outstanding diorama. These classic Tamiya kits build up beautifully. Some of these kits are still impressive to this day.

@@ModelNerd Currently working on a Tamiya late model Panther G. A joy to build, and I am adding just the right amount of aftermarket parts to enhance the detail without going overboard. Amazing how quickly the level of detail builds up as one continues construction. Have subscribed. Cheers from the Commonwealth Down Under.

Back as a child used to build these kits - My father was 42 when I was born ! - Having served during WW2 - As a child I was enthralled by what Dad during the War -& After my Dad Died I decieded to build diorma's of my Dads most hairy moments & his finest monents ! - Building these I could pass family history on to my Son - While showing him how to build these wonderful kits ! Ha ! -that was 28 years ago - I did show my son how to build & fix things - He's a qualified mechanic now ! But I still want to build my Dads dioramas And watching you tutorial here as made me realise how the modeling world has moved on since I was a teen ! - Think the last kit I made was a triumph TR7 - Shows how long a go that was & In 1993 I built some biplanes with & for my sons bedroom light ? You did a really smart job of your diorama ! -Theres nothing wrong about your wall - there was walls of every shape and size in europe during WW2 Yours wall could be a perfect represntation of any one of them ? - I know you have a view of what you want to build in your mind and some times what you build does not live up to your visual Idea ! - But that was great Job and has helped me no end ! - Thankyou for sharing your video ! SB British Isles !

It must be difficult videoing and creating you models at thevsame time ? ...all the very best !

That's a fine cannon from the early to mid war. Not sure if anyone else has kitted version. Being a older modler I built most of these old tamyia monogram and revell kits when they where new kits. As a modler today I have no problem working with older kits with there many problems compared to the wonderful kits we are getting now days. To me it's just modeling I enjoy working with less than perfect kits. Thanks for sharing ❤

Very nice! I have one of these I built many years ago with the intention of using it in a diorama, but my mind couldn't come up with any ideas. Recently, I pulled it out of the box it was in to discover that during a recent move, the gun had broken off the chassis, so I think I may fasten it to the back of a Tamiya Hanomag I am building. My only suggestion for you would have been to use a match or lighter to add some real scorching to some of the wood elements.
