😳 No Tracks & No Mud? 😫 Farewell Comfort Zone TAKOM 1/35 SA-N-7 Missile & Launcher Build

- Todays video is about stretching boundaries and getting out of your comfort zone and showing you how techniques used for weathering armour can translate to genres of modelling.
I’m a sucker for a group build, and I love stretching myself in terms of the projects I chose. So next on the bench ticks both those boxes. Its the left of centre release from Takom a couple of years ago and that is the Russian Surface to Air Missile the SA N 7 (or 12) in 1/35th scale.
In terms of a model everything looked to be reasonably straight forward in the instructions with really the only choice being whether to build the SA-N-7 (NATO name Gadfly) or the SA-N-12 (known as the Grizzly) - Both weapons are ship mounted however for me it was all about the colour of the missile rather than the make, so I soon decided I’d be building the green one!
This is the first part of a two part series where I look to create a vignette telling a tale of sabotage gone wrong.

No model can rule me out of my comfort zone. I usually build ships, but planes, armor and helicopters some time just to relax and put some unusuall models on my shelf. Great looking SA-N-7, interesting take on internals of the launch pad. Wish they add some figures in thouse kits. :)
Oh man, I hear you! Figures were very tricky to come by for this one! Paracel Miniatures have a set of modern Russian sailors but they are very difficult to come by. I will be including figures on mine but it is a slightly left of centre take on the whole thing. Thanks for joining in. Hope you are enjoying the channel 🥳
really liked what you did with this and as always, great to catch up at the show on weekend! Thanks DD
Thanks Darren. Was all a bit of fun. Appreciate your support 💪🙏
G'day Mate, Yep! you have done it again mate, great work. I really like what Gary is doing with his one. I wish l had known about the group build. Keep Safe. Jon'o.
Thanks Jon’o. Will let you know what the next Illawarra subject is in around 2 weeks time!
Nice work Clayton! I like the way you think out of the box and added detail to the access area very nice!!😊
Thanks Gary. I do over complicated things at times…but I guess that’s all part of the fun. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for being part of this community ☝️💪🙏
A great result on an unusual subject Clayton! Your skill with the airbrush is exceptional mate. Try as much as I like, I still have a lot of issues using mine. I know practice makes perfect, but my hobby time is limited, so I guess my skills will build slowly. I love the channel, and look forward to every video no matter the subject, so keep them coming my friend. Cheers till next episode.
Thanks Gary. Always so generous with your comments. Very lucky to have you as part of this community 💪🙏🥂
Amazing job Clayton,this is something different for sure,and you blasted it.This is amazing and I can’t believe that something you are doing for the first time,looks so good.Great job mate!
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it. It’s a little naked at the minute so hopefully it becomes a little more interesting when the scene comes together 🤞
Appreciate you joining in on the conversation as always 🙏
My next project is most certainly out of my comfort zone. I’m going from heavily weathered ww2 german tanks to an F22 which will have practically zero weathering, but I am very excited nonetheless!
Oh wow! That’s a big leap! I love the f22. Was lucky enough to see one fly a few years back. Good luck with it! I’ll do an Aussie f35 one day 🤔🤯
I like that sponge technique
I'm going to master it too!
The sponge to mask with? It’s very handy. Actually, a sponge is a very handy tool for the scale modeller.
Thanks for taking the time to comment 🙏💪☝️🥂
Hi Clayton that ix6 a awsome looking build, looking forward to the next update, best regards from a Kiwi living in Melbourne, Les
Thanks Les. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏💪
Great movie, nice job! Cheers, Greg
Thanks Greg. Appreciate your support 🙏
As my interests shift, I find myself having to build new skills. After close to ten years doing mostly armor, I'm just finishing up the third 1/32 plane in a row. I'll then do a 1/35 armor kit I have teed up. I intend to do some ships after that. And to think I spent around a dozen years after I returned to the hobby as an adult doing auto models. There is no lack of interesting subjects in all genres and new techniques to master. It's all enjoyable (unless you screw up and the air turns blue).
Hey John! A true all rounder! I love it. It’s such a great hobby isn’t it?! Thanks for joining in mate. Glad you are enjoying the channel 🙏💪
Hi Greg, a very interesting subject matter and great little video, cheers Liam
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks Liam 🙏💪
Awesome job 🇺🇸
Thanks Tim. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. Hopefully it all comes together in the next part 👍🇦🇺🙏
hello,very good job of mounting and painting!the result is wow!!i built a Takom Tiger I Otto Carius and the tracks is a challenge for me,amity from France,Patrick
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it Patrick. Yes, those tracks can be a little tricky. Hope you managed to get through it ok.
Appreciate you taking the time to comment 💪👍🙏
Good model build (I knew it was a missile due to that riddle). It is interesting take those big models that in a way are easy to build so the detail on the paint are indeed crucial to it. Excellent job!
Well done 💪 Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for taking the time to connect 🙏😄
Greetings once again Clayton! My out of the zone comfort build would probably have to be ww1 aircraft. I currently have 2 on the bench right now. One is 1/48 and the other 1/32. Enjoying the interior before I close them up this summer and then every modelers nemesis, rigging! You’ll probably hear me even though I’m in the US!😂thanks again for another great tutorial! I anticipate you having at least 50,000 subs with such great content!😂
👍🏾cheers
Ww1 aircraft is a scary proposition for anyone I think! Good for you for extending yourself.
50k Hope so 🤞 spread the word 🤩💪🙏
As a figure modeller and occasional armour modeller... did a 32nd Italeri F 35 Lightning.
Yeah, that created a whole bunch of new learned choice language words
😆😆 I think we have all been guilty of that from time to time ! 🕰️
What I've noticed about your brush painting is how you only load the latter end of the brush. I'm surprised because you still have plenty of material without running out. Typically I load the brush all the way up...but they're exceptionally difficult to clean. I'm in the middle of a 1/72 RB-45 Tornado build (I'm mostly an aircraft modeler) so the time is great to alter what I've been doing for 35yrs-hopefully for the better. Thanks for sharing dude!
Interesting. I know best practice is to never get paint in the ferrule. Damages the brushes quickly. If your paint is thinned enough a good brush will carry a fair amount of paint and go along way. Maybe try thinning you paint a little more and see if you can keep the paint in the brush wetter for longer
😮👏👏👏 your welcome buddy 😊
🤩 Glad you received the message. Thanks again Paul 🫶🏻
Really cool. 👍
Thank you. So pleased to hear you enjoyed it 👍💪🙏
nice4 video always good to watch keep them coming
Thank you. Probably not the most popular subject choice...but Im having fun with it :) Glad you are enjoying the channel 💪🙏
Nice work Clayton, I've been building the Battleship turrets from Takom, nice change from armour, and the occasional sci-fi kit, just to change it up, but still love my armour...
Hey John. Yeah…armour will always be my love and passion but it’s fun to mix it up from time to time. Those turrets can present really well. I need to have a go at one of those one day.
Thanks for joining in the conversation 🙏💪
@@workbenchhobbies4316 Hi Clayton, those kits I offered you are still here, just added another kit to the pile, a 1/72 scale B 52 bomber by Italeri, 25th anniversary gulf war addition.
Oh! I love the b52! And I haven’t forgotten your generous offer. Just been incredibly busy. Grandchild 2 just born
@@workbenchhobbies4316 That's ok Clayton, they are still here, not a problem, come get them when you can.
I don't have a comfort zone. Well, air, land sea, most popular periods, figures, animals, machines, topography. From depicting explosions to rough seas, I can't imagine being conventional as it's boring.
Advanced modellers syndrome (AMS) is real, manifested by lack of originality. I've never done something that looks like anyone else's.
I like your style and genial approach. Makes it more welcoming to newcomers.
I’m a bit like you. I do love playing around with other genres and trying new things.
Glad to hear you find the information accessible. That was one of my hopes for the channel.
Thanks for joining in 🙏
@workbenchhobbies4316 Tried to look for a way of sending you my diorama photos. Couldn't see 1. I'm not on social media - urggh! You'll be pleased with what I can do.
PS: You're spot on about this being an unrivalled time for modellers. I'm 58 and thought the mid 1990's was the time when the hobby would start to die out. Reason = it got far more detailed & more expensive. The previous decade, the 89's saw a huge growth in cottage industries like Verlinden. In my opinion, it was the end of the Cold War and the huge increase in prosperity of the Far East . There's no cottage industry on the level of the 80s and 90s due to the sheer quality of kits today. We are spoiled. Have been for all of this century. Admittedly, the 20th century onward is what kits concentrate on.
Get me through my website. Www.workbenchhobbies.com 😉
I most enjoy doing airplanes, with an occasional car or armor build. However, I recently went outside the "comfort zone" and tackled Takom's 1/72 Yamato turret. That was an absolute joy to build. While the kit was pretty easy to do, it gave the opportunity to learn how to use oils to create realistic wood grain for the deck.
Hey David. Great work. I’ve seen a few of those in the display tables and they do come up a treat don’t they?! Very cool subject. Great to hear you are expanding your boundaries 💪👍☝️
You will soon be building a 😊plane - as my son forced me to!!! A great video - lots of great tips as usual
😆😆 it’s getting closer isn’t it! 🤯🤔🫣
Nicely done. The slightly lurid anti corrosion green is a great contrast to the grey of the mount.
Looking forward to seeing the vignette.
Stepping out of the 'Usual' is a definite learning experience.
Thanks Jamie. Appreciate your support as always 🙏💪
Every model at the minute seems to be giving me a hard time 😂 but another brilliant video thank you
😆 I hear you! Stick with it Joe. Appreciate you joining again. Hope you are enjoying the channel. 🙏💪
@workbenchhobbies4316 I'm slowly making my way through you're videos and really enjoying them you have a good way of explaining things
That’s great Joe. Thanks for the follow on Facebook too 🙏
@workbenchhobbies4316 it's not a problem thanks again for the great videos
I'm totally sporadic. I regurally do armor, but in different scales.i also do 48th and 32nd aircraft, occassional ship and figures. In the past couple years, ive built more aircradt than ihave in the 30 years before. Lol
Hey Will. Great to see you again. You sound a bit like me. Happy to have a go at most things. It keeps it interesting doesn’t it! Thanks again for joining in mate 🙏💪👍
Excellent build, and love the finish, though it does seem like using sponge for floor texture might be cutting a few corners?
😉 you know it! Consider that corner cut ✂️
what next, perhaps some vegetation ...
Some mud and tarps maybe?
I have no doubt you have a full on base planned for this one, complete with plinth, groundwork, vegetation and possibly figures if you have time 🤔
Nah, no groundwork. Just need to finish now…
What is the punch and die set you use in this vid at ~6:40 ?
It’s an RB tools set. Wasn’t cheap from memory but very good. There’s a discount link in notes for hobbies haven. You could see if they had a set?
Is there a link to the STL file for the hatch by any chance?
Hi James - not at this stage however I will be making the file I have drawn (which will feature in the next video) available for my patreons. Ill let Gary know you were interested though because I know he was considering uploading it to Cults3D
Ummmm youve changed!😀
😉 I am a complex man! I’ll be back 🤞😉
