Hamilkar Barkas' Video on the L/48 version:    • "JP IV Buddy Build" - Dragon Jagdpanz...  

This video is a post-build review of Dragon 6369. We will explore the instruction errors, fit issues, and accuracy corrections I discovered while building the kit. The modifications I made to this kit to model the L/70 variant will also be covered.

This is also my first video in my Buddy Build with Hamilkar Barkas where we will both build this kit and an sdkfz 250 in some dioramas.

Summary:

I finished this kit in about 5 days. Very nice build with no major fit issues, apart from the L/48 gun. Only a few minor instruction errors which I cover in the video.

I solved the issue with the L/48 gun by simply using extra parts in the kit to make an L/70 variant. For a guide on fixing the L/48, check out Hamilkar Barkas' video on the same kit.

I used a few parts from an Aber PE set to add some extra detail to the fender supports, tool clamps, and front mudguards. This PE is not required. I also used an Aber metal barrel, but there is a plastic L/70 in the kit so it's also not required.

DS rubber tracks were replaced with aftermarket ones from Heavy Hobby. I don't like DS and they can degrade over time after exposure to enamel thinner during weathering.

There is no reason for me to promote a bad product, as then I would not enjoy using it, not like the result on my model, and not be proud of publicizing it in a video. There's also no point in me doing this to keep up relations with a company if the only benefit would be getting more of the same products that I didn't like. I have not used every product out there, but from what I have used, I keep using the products I like, and that's why I use them in my videos. You can use whatever other products you would like to and you can feel that they are better - that is your opinion, and is perfectly fine by me, thus I hope that feeling is reciprocated.
