I'm a Lance Missile veteran of the 2nd Battalion, 42nd FA, B Battery, (your missile launcher is marked 3rd Bn, A Bty) and I really appreciate the love, the time and the attention to detail that you gave this little model. I have no such patience left to build one of these, but I am happy to see our legacy continued this way. In 2/42 our official motto was "Strike Deep", but our unofficial motto was, "Nuke 'em 'till they glow!"
Lancer here too. Italian Army, Oderzo, 3rd Missile Battalion Volturno. I was the section commander for this bad boy. The fastest team in Italy in my day (to the chagrin of my academy colleagues. Maybe if they weren't assholes to their soldiers...) . I am going to try to replicate mine with the Volturno colors and emblem if possible. Ours was flat green, so that will be easier. Also I'd use some silver. Ours had the paint scraped off and down to metal.
"Nuke 'em 'till they glow!" my Lancer friend.
I was a cruise launch commander with the triple nickel deuce squadron at fort riley...our motto was first to fire, first to miss...we had low morale.
I was a fellow Lancer as well I was C Btry 2/42
@@richardwisniewski260 Strike Deep Lancer!
@Free America Tilli they glow!
It's great to see a real hobby shop again. Many have disappeared over the years. To name a few Squadron, Polks, and even the English chain Beatties. There's nothing like walking the aisles and looking and picking up the boxes. Then go over to the display case and view all types of models people have proudly built and painted. I'm partial to 1/35, scale Tamiya and Dragon, but in my day mid 1970s I was into 1/72 scale--WW 2, Eastern Front. Now back to Andy. I applaud you for keeping this man's memories alive like many others who subscribe to your channel. I truly enjoy your videos on the latest models entering the market and how you construct them with good tips of whatever to do when this or that happens. you make it look effortless. Your painting techniques to your realistic weathering the vehicle makes them look so real. Thanks again, Andy with two super big likes. Ted
Andy, you are the "Rock Star" of the modelling community and it is we who should be thanking you for all of these great and educational videos.
Many thanks my friend and have fun,
Joe
Andy.. I'm 69 and have not built Models since I was 6 to 17... right before I went into the Military. Since I've retired ...because I came across one of your videos...I've gotten back into the Hobby !! I've taken a M-4 Revell Sherman.. and a Renwal Twin Forty stamped 1960 ...back when I was 12 and cleaned off these AND MORE and restored them. Back then we didn't have all these neat Washes and Pigments ..and because of your Vids I've totally redid a lot of these old models.I'm about to order a my first Air Brush and paints...(wish me luck lol lol ) and some Armor kits. Your Videos are great... you instruct well and man am I greatful that I found your site !!!! THANK YOU !!! PS.. try the M-7 PREIST... you haven't done that one yet.
Hi Andy. This is a very well detailed Model. I served as a section chief in a Lance Missile firing platoon in
3rd Bn 79th FA , Rivers Barraks ( The Zoo ), Giessen, West Germany in the 70s and 80s.
There are just a few things wrong with this model. First of all there are no wooden running boards on top of the
sponsons inside the track. They showed incredible detail on the Launch Truss. That was the thing the missile
sits on top of. What I did not see were the ancillary equipment required to fire the Lance.
There should be a monitor programmer on the right side of the launch truss with a power cable going to the battery box
and a bigger umbilical cable going from the MP to the right side of the missile ( MMA ). We should also see the
container containing the GSU ( Gunner Sight Unit ) and the Firing device and cable reel. There would also be a boat tail
cover to protect the rear of the missile in transport.
If you were displaying the Lance in launch configuration you would have placed in front of the launcher
the 2 empty Control surface containers, the GSU unit and the boat tail cover.
Oh and please stop called the control surfaces fins!
Sharks have fins, '57 Chevys have fins.
The Lance Missile has Control Surfaces.
Now drop and give me twenty.
Bill23799 lol. 2/42 C-Btry 80-81
Interesting build. We should be thanking you for the builds and the techniques you use to build these kits.. We get a preview of new kits and a heads up if there are any fit problems
As a veteran of the 4/12 F.A. I know 13N is interesting. But I didn’t see the RT and the TT for aiming missile. Cool stuff!
Watching you build this model Andy brought back many happy memories of when I was in 80 missile reg royal artillery back in the 80s.This missile was my life for many years come rain snow or sun.
Love the range of types of kits. The narrative has enough detail to make us invested in the kit, but still concise and compelling.
I don't always leave comments, but I watch everyone of your videos. Thanks again for your contribution to our hobby and scale modeling community. I hope to visit you next week. Cheers from Tucson. - Stephen
I am really pleased to hear that younger people are showing interest in the hobby .. I think manufacturers don't consider this demographic while they produce and market because a 15 yo person won't be able to afford almost any kit from today's hobby stores because prices are getting crazy.
Anybody from the north east of the country remember Al's Hobbies and the Squadron Shop in Philadelphia? Wasted many an hour there in my youth
Thanks for doing this kit....i was in a lance missle unit in the 70s in germany..brings back some memories...3d bn 79th fa giessen germany
thats a pip3 iHawk, on an m113 secondary launch platform...we used them in the korengal valley in 2013.
Andy I like how you showed painting the Cammo on the M752. Now I need to get the Airbrush out and start painting again. :)
great build, if you wonder what those yellow patches are for, those are destruct spots for placing your shape charges if you are getting overran and don't have time to pack up and shag ass out of the AO.
Great looking build, but I caught 2 things. One, you didn't use all the tread pads and two, it looks like you dropped the missile retaining straps. They were round in the beginning and flattened later on. :) Once again great looking model
Another great build - the detail (and number of parts involved) on the missile frame is a bit scary but not uncommon on Dragon kits I guess!
Nice build Andy. I am never sure about weathering when I do it, it just does not look right, but I think you did a great job. 10 out of 10.
Dragon are realising the loader/carrier too. I’ll probably get both when that one comes out!
I'm actually not a model builder, i just like these videos! Keep it up Andy!
Too bad they didn't put more detail into the rocket engine and exhaust nozzle rather than just a flat bottom. The launch cradle is fantastic. Great job as usual, Andy.
Hey Bill. I served as a section chief in a Lance missile Firing platoon in West Germany in the 70s and 80s.
The rocket engine of the Lance actually is covered by what is called a Boat tail. It does look just as shown
in this model. The boat tail gets blown away when the Missile is launched.
There was a Boat Tail cover that was placed over the boat tail to protect it during transport.
180 away from that big 50K
One night i thought that modeling was essentially dying as i was the only one of my town of 27,000 to do any modeling, But thanks to you and your tips and constant stream of long enjoyable content to watch everynight. You've have given us one of the first real good online platforms for modelling, its a little different then the model conventions and shows that we have to travel so far to get, and magically put to gether a 50k (hopefully by the time you see) person strong international model group. So, thank you for putting more modelers and models together and giving me a good reason to go on. (BTW I got a Maus).
Andy, if you're having trouble keeping your decals straight, try using a thin low tack piece of electrical tape as a rule for alignment. It would definitely help on some of those little yellow squares you were fiddling with as well as the white markings around 24:30
Post-it note works too
Sweet looking job!
another great model Andy , you got me wanting to build this kit now it looks like a great little kit and the camo pattern is very cool thank you for sharing and congrats on the soon to be 50k subs its well deserved
Hi from Australia I come across your video's by accident and wow I was hooked straight away. I have become a new model builder because of your videos. I love to see a detail on model figures painting by you and more diorama. cheers
Excellent build it looks like it's based off of the M113 vehicle
I've taken up scale modeling because of you. On my third kit. You're the best Andy!
Great work, Andy! For years I've been wishing someone would make a Lance missile kit! Now all that's left on my wish list is a Pershing II.
I was in a Lance Battalion from 87’-90’ in Germany 1/32nd FA BN
Who else likes when he says light ceana
John Cena?
Xaxaxa
You mean sienna?
No he didn't say it wrong, it's just his favourite pigment to use and something like signature thing to his models, like NATO Black
I don't get it. Is "light sienna" somehow funny?
who's talkin shit about 'John Sienna' here, hmmmm?
Many Thanks from germany for your time you spent to give us this daily Videos,glad when i see that there is a new one^^
Great model and build but i have to say i'm memorised by that monster over your right shoulder at the start!
Another great build
Another excellent build. Have you ever built the Tamiya Flak 88? this has almost as many parts on the gun as the cradle on this kit?
Another piece of art. I need a good, strong glue for 1/32 aircraft, that will give me 10-15 seconds to make adjustments. Whats your recommendation ? TY, and well done.
Thanks for the build Andy.I was looking forward to it having the kit already. I always wait to see your build up of the kits before I start. These days it looks like I wait to purchase kits until I see reviews from Terry Ashley, Cookie Sewell and YOU!
could you please make a video about air brushing for newbies like me
this i would also like to see, have a cheap airbrush i use to practice with but now need to step it up
He did make an air brushing video in the past, but not in detail
I didn't find any that I liked. (IE going into great detail)
ive seen a few but i want to get everybody's views and opinions
Andy's are the best vids.
Love your videos Andy and they inspire me, but can you please choose something else besides The Blue Danube?
Hey Andy! long time subscriber 1st time commenter. just want to to know your a real inspiration to me. i used to do a lot of modelling as a kid but got back into it a few years ago. (I'm 42) your channel has been a great source of information for me, your weathering techniques have been a big help. I'm more into sci-fi models Star Wars/Trek. so I'm really looking forward to u doing the Star Destroyer. just so u know I'm in Edinburgh, Scotland, so keep up the good work and take care bud. cheers!!!
Thank you, that is great.
Gary Horsburgh can scottish people say burglar alarms?
My first unit in the Army had these. A Battery 2/377 FA Herzo Base West Germany.
Nice build I enjoy your passion for our hobby
Tim from Dubai
Best music for this stuff
Great build and a cool variant of the M113. What airbrush do you use?
Andy don't take this the wrong way but... I love having your videos playing as I go to sleep. They're just so incredibly relaxing. Keep up the good work! If I'm ever for some reason in AZ I will definitely stop by your store.
I know almost every armored vehicle in history. I’ve heard of this, and it’s obvious it’s based on the M113, but I’ve never seen it before.
This vehicle wasn't armored. All aluminum. This carried a conventional warhead or a nuclear one. AKA Nuetron bomb
Another awesome build!
Hi Andy love videos keep on doing them and I wish my local model shop was well socked like yours, can't wait for
the next build.
gray from the U.K
Thanks so much Andy
Can you creative an update video or a remake of the airbrush/Tamiya cement video. This time more in depth about the different type of compressors/airbrushes people could get.
whatching these videos has inspired me to return modeling and also im learning new methods of weathering that now are improving my modeling skills. when uploaded this i corrantly buliding tamiya's Flak 88mm also i have my first dragon model waiting to be built a PAK 40 75mm gun. i wounder how you would do the tamiya 88 Flak what about doing a British Army Challenger 2im Ashley Knowles and im from United Kingdom
love watching your builds mate, really do inspire me to crack on and become as good as yourself ( 1 day !!!!) from across the pond in london , england
Séria bom se no Brasil tivesse estes produtos com preços disponíveis ao público em geral
Great build, Andy.
thanks for the great videos i have learnt so much since i have subscribed to your channel. keep up the great work.
Andy I want to say a big thank you to you ! you have taught me so much .
awesome videos always a pleasure to watch them..keep up the good work Andy
Thanks for not being one of those modeling snobs Andy!
Jason Voorheez I agree! I went to his shop and met him. He's a very nice guy!
Very good video thank you for posting
Congrats on getting up to almost 50k!! I want to request a kit for you to do. I'd love to see what you could do with the Panther a from tamiya. It would be cool to see that kit done up in a wild way!
50 K subscribers! Well done, Andy!
Another great video,i can't believe 3 people don't like it, whats not to like??? keep up the good work.
love this kit just done mine
Andy how do you go about painting road wheels? What I mean is keeping the rubber outer area cleanly distinguished from the inner wheel well. I never see you mask these so I am wondering what your process is. :)
I have a question, which glue did you use for resin models? I have a very strong glue, but its very thin and im looking for a glue with a pencil to put only a small amount on my models.
You can use a wooden cocktail stick to apply super glue in small amounts this is what I've been doing ever since I managed to clog the applicator tip of my bottle of super glue ;)
Awesome job as usual. Thanks for making these!
HI Andy, i have been building models now for almost 40 years, start around 10 years old mainly 1/72 scale, so great to see your kit builds - would you consider a range of kits -even Mods to cover the D-Day tank and vehicles.
12:18 Thankyou :)
Great build.Also, have you ever consider building the submarine seaview model.
Интересная модель. Хорошая работа
I think those decals on the missile are misplaced...
Excelent work!! Very nice! Greatings from México city.
I have really enjoyed your video. Great looking model when you finished. I have a question. Is it just me, or is the travel straps facing the wrong way ? If that's what it is, why are the smaller rings facing the much bigger nose of the missile ? This while the largest ring , which looks like its the same size as the rocket ? Is this moveable ?
good job andy i liked the camo and how you did the tracks
I like watch your videos. I learn a lot from you. Thanks ! :)
Hi Andy great build looks amazing I loved you're build of the v2 rocket launcher I have that kit myself but not started it yet. I have a question for you in your opinion which is better tamiya mark fit strong or micro sol ? Please let me know as I can't gat mark fit strong here in the U.K. I have mark fit but not the strong thx look forward to you're next build
I will send you the address to ship that to. Lol. Very nice job andy that was my old job for three years
I just turned 12 and think modeli g is awesome! But I want to paint my tanks with a airbrush but don't know what is good and bad? I really could use some help thanks!
Great video like allways... Greetings from Germany.
Another brilliant video Thank you. One question:
Am I alone in thnking you've got some magic, never-ending bottle of Tamiya Extra Thin🙄?
Paul Hennessy no ur not
How am I not subscribed to this channel yet
please keep up this amazing work mr Andy!!up to the next 50000 subs😁
Andy, just wondering about how long does it take you to complete 1 model like this one? Also, are you ever gonna do an aircraft again like the Tomcat?
Another great kit Andy.
Are you thinking about ever bringing back Hobby Talk? I liked that series!
Won't applying decals to flat paint cause silvering
Love your videos, Andy. I used to show mine with a modelling club and they were always amazed that I was a woman modeler.
Great build Andy, looking fwd to your next one!
You should do a cold war turned hot diorama! P.s. nice gumball machine.
Sweet
Greetings From National City CA USA From Jose Silva Thanks For All Your Videos.

I like your choice of music
top build again Andy, it looks a great kit.
