love your dioramas there nice do u make all your dioramas in 1:32 1:35 scale or do u do smaller i do 1:72. ive subed u

[gabenewt]

awesome! u should check out my dioramas there not as good tho haha

[TheGStylezZz]

it would've been better if you used selmade tanks insead of buying FORCES OF VALOR tanks sorry but that is my opinion

[apache20ab]

totally cool man..

[alfiesmachinima]

what is the difference between 132cnd and 135th?

[beetstreet4]

@alfiesmachinima Very little I combine them all the time. Yes in this video too!!! Adding 1/35 nd zimmerit to a 1/32 nd tank has been tougher though. Hope that helps, Beetstreet

[brightsghost]

@AdamSavage88 totally cool man....huh guess i can ask you for an autograph then ha...

[Ihave3Modes]

are these models you painted?they are really good

[beetstreet4]

@Ihave3Modes At this time in my diorama building, the models were painted by the manufacturer (Unimax - Forces Of Valor). I still us Forces Of Valor but I now strip them down, add PE detailing and re-paint with an air brush. I use Forces Of Valor mainly because they are made of mostly metal and I feel tanks should be made of metal, not 100% plastic - just my opinion. Thanks for looking, Beetstreet

[brightsghost]

@AdamSavage88 yeah totally bro....

[brightsghost]

@AdamSavage88 hey are you from the mythbusters??? :)

[beetstreet4]

@AdamSavage88 Yes all my dioramas you see on You Tube are all in 1 / 35th or 1 /32nd scale. By the way, nice dioramas too. Thanks, Beetstreet

[brightsghost]

hi besststreet4 nice diorama really loved it...i wanted to ask a few questions?

1-can you give me the official site link for the ULTIMATE SOLDIER manufacturer[or just their catalogue].

2-where would you rate tamiya in all of this.

3-im a noob who is just starting to shift to the real stuff as i was on airfix before[pls dont laugh].

4-nah this one is more of an agreement to your view on terrain prices,they are totally overpriced...

[beetstreet4]

Thank you for the kind comment. Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner. As for your questions: 1. I can't give you the Ultimate Soldier website because I believe 21st Century Toys is now closed - permantly. 2. Tamiya figures are okay but Dragon is better and Alpine figures are amazing. (My friend paints most of the figures in my dioramas. I do some but he is far better at it than me.)

[brightsghost]

@beetstreet4 thanks for the reply beetstreet....alpines line is very detailed...i think im gonna get a troop or two just to test em out...anyways any crusaders and saracen models that are good quality but also cheap....the ones i have stumbled upon on google are either similar to the citadel stuff[too squat and smushed looking for my taste] or just antiques[i dont wanna sell a kidney for em]. so in short any ideas?

[beetstreet4]

@brightsghost I suggest shopping where I shop = EBay. If you can't find what your looking for there, I have another really good source in Canada. Beetstreet

[beetstreet4]

@brightsghost 3. I was born in England and grew up painting and building Airfix models, so if someone wants to laugh, they laugh at us both!!!

4. Thank you, some dealers make me so frustrated about getting the mighty dollar!!!

[brightsghost]

@beetstreet4 gents just mailed masterbox ukraine for info on a kit....man there stuff is very well made and its cheap...hope the shipping is affordable...

[loppan109]

i whant this to :(

[scoodlers]

are the tanks FOV

[beetstreet4]

@scoodlers Yes. The artillery classed peices (Pak 40, Flak 88) are Ultimate Soldier.

[jusdevache]

That's just spectacular nice job!  It reminds me of visiting "Le Musee de L'arme" in Paris as a kid...

Subscribed, can't wait to see the others.

5/5

[Jaqobski]

u should try styrofoam instead of concrete its cheaper but u have to construted it yourself.

[beetstreet4]

I just finished a diorama for my brother using syrofoam as both brick and also cement walls. The bunker, etc done in mortar was to: 1. To see how difficult it was to make (ie- the moulds). 2. To check the cost in materials and time. This was to avoid passing quick judgement on an on-line based diorama seller of mortar based bunkers and the high price they charge (Please review the desription for this video). My judgment stands. I appreciate the advice but I built this diorama for this reason.

[HKUK94]

I like that jagdpanther, kingtiger and flakpanzer.

Nice job!!

[portijs]

Outstanding and realistic diorama..

Beetstreet4 is a talented person with great creativity.

I know it took him a lot of time and dedication to make this actual recreation .

Wow, if there is somebody out there who owns a WWII museum, this is it! Buy it or hire him..

Good job...

[beetstreet4]

I justed wanted to apologize to my friends in German but my video of my diorama "Wrong Turn In The Ardennes" has been blocked in German by the might of Sony Music for copyright infrindgement for the soundtrack - sorry!!!

[jacupuh]

@beetstreet4 Wait.. do you have the FoV 88?

[beetstreet4]

@jacupuh FOV has a 2009/2010 release of a Flak 88 in a Normandy colour scheme. The German grey "Stalingrad" 88 is retired. Both can be found on EBay. As per your question, I have 3 FOV 88s (Stalingrad) and 2 Ultimate Soldier 88s in my collection. The FOV is by far better!!!

[jacupuh]

@beetstreet4 Definitely I have the Stalingrad too and just noticed that you can use the valves to rotate and elevate the weapon.

[donnjuansohn]

theres a great amount of details...i like most the muddy windscreen of the buggy, the bushes around the tank traps and all these little wallpapers- very cool work!

[U48]

wow, what can i saw, simple an awesome diorama.... so much detail, time and hard work must have went into it.... 5*

[svinehunden]

i'm with that...
