Building the Tamiya 1/35 Scale Flakpanzer IV “Wirbelwind” 2003 vs. 2016

This video is a model building, painting, weathering, and comparison of the same Flakpanzer IV model I constructed in 2003 vs. one I’m building (built) in 2016. (I diverged a little from my aviation themed channel to work on my amateur model making skills by building this armor piece).

This upload is slightly different from the original posted to YT in 2016 – there’s a slight increase in lighting, changes in sound, editing out of some camera bumps, and a re-shoot of the final reveal.

This was My Model Corner Project #2 from my amateur series and demonstrates that back then I had a ways to go in improving my video presentations.

Background: About 2003 I stopped building models. The Tamiya 1/35 Scale Flakpanzer “Wirbelwind” was the last model I fully completed then. I’ve been inspired to try my hand at model building again by many skilled internet modelers who have generously shared their techniques for painting, shading, weathering, etc. I’m an amateur builder/painter and this video is more about showing “improvement” from what I’ve learned and just having some fun.
