Nice videos. One point - the Revell cement didn't work for me. The parts didn't bond properly. I use Tamiya liquid cement.

Revell worked fine for me.

Strange. Have you tested the bond? I found that Revell stuck the parts together, but didn't actually melt the plastic. It was possible to pull the parts apart after the cement had dried. I've seen the same comment from other people.

I've dropped it enough times to of broken it if it hadn't of worked! Plus there's a bit of a fingerprint on the turret from overspill, so yeah I'd say it melted it pretty well

See this thread:

I partially assembled my first Rubicon Tiger using Revell cement. I then discovered I could pull everything apart - the cement residue simply scraped off. Interesting that it worked for you.

The revel seems to have worked for me. I haven't tried to rip parts off the models with excess strength, but I did give them a good tug just now. I built a tiger a while ago using tamiya cement, also with good results.

For those who haven't already seen it,
I highly recommend Herbert's latest video, painting the Stug III from us.

Thanks Herbert, it's a great video as always!
