Glad you enjoyed it! I'm grateful for fantastic subscribers like you. I appreciate every like, sub and share... I truly mean that. Cheers m8!😎

Thanks for the sub... I'm glad it was not a wasted effort.😉

I thank you again, sir! I'm thrilled you're being entertained and educated. Your thoughtful comments are a real boost to the mojo, which I need right now. All the best! Scott 🙂

Well, I try to be clever from time to time. Again thanks for the views and your time invested in what I do here on CZcams. 🙌🍻

@SmallSoldier No worries sir. Very enjoyable and educational.

LOL! Thank you. I had fun with this video and I really appreciate your kind thoughts. Thanks for the subscription as well. Cheers!

Not sure how to reply, I don’t speak that language. Thanks I guess.

Grazie signore!🙌

@@SmallSoldier complimenti!!

Thanks for the encouragement. That's just it... I think I have burn't myself out. I'm having a real hard time getting any kind of motivation for the hobby right now. It's hard to stay motivated when you put so much time and effort into these videos and they just tank! 🍻

@@jamfjord Thanks m8! I’m so glad you found this video and it was useful to you. Long form videos are rare because they take so long to make and if they flop it takes me awhile to get motivated to do another. Anyway thanks for watching!🙌🏻🍻

@@ech0tang0 Thank you. NoI don’t have a list for that… sorry.

No preference. I go with how I'm feeling at the time of each new project.

@@BuzzkillZone The clear coats are used on some coats not all. Some times the paint has dried and I don’t Need a clear.

@@BuzzkillZone The paint is more like a glaze which dries really fast. Some paint like the highlight areas is more opaque and will take more time to dry. You have to work fast when using this technique this is why I use the thinner to dilute the paint so it dries quicker. You can also use a heat lamp to dry the oils faster. Hope that helps.

@@SmallSoldier Thank you. Next time I try I'll thin it down to a glaze and see how things go.

@@normansmith8184 thanks m8! No video for the figure yet. Hopefully I can get to that eventually. I do however have several videos on my channel dedicated to figure modelling and painting. Check out the other content I’m sure you’ll learn a thing or two.

@SmallSoldier Ah, bless you sir. Thanks for the reply and invaluable info. Guess what I'll be doing today! Thanks again and all the best.

You're very welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Please consider subscribing to my channel if you haven't already. Thanks!🙂

Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it. I'm glad this helped with your decision-making. Yes, many kits have become paint mules. Consider subscribing to my channel if you haven't already done so. Thanks so much!

You can but I prefer Alclad 2 Aqua Gloss clear "ALC 600". I find I get better results than with X22. If you can't get the Alclad stuff make sure you thin the X22 with either Mr Leveling thinner 400 or the Tamiya Lacquer thinner "retarder type" with the orange cap which is similar to the MLT. Hope that "clears" 😉 things up. Cheers!

@@SmallSoldier tamiya x20A thinner not good for this ? I only have this type of thinner and in online people say its ok cause its not a enamel paint so you dont need laquer thinner

@@OdysseyAviation it’s not great tbh. If you can get the Tamiya orange cap it’ll work best.

Thank you very much! Yes, it's still a relevant technique if used correctly. 🍻

Thank you... and you're most welcome!🍻

Sorry, I'm not sure what politics you're referring to?

@@SmallSoldier может быть был перевод не точный. что за книга для украины? зто ваша книга. вы её продаёте? спасибо за общение. извините если обидел вас

@@user-tz4wf4qj5s No offence taken m8. Are you referring to the review I did for "Models for Ukraine"?

@@SmallSoldier да

Thank you. Yes agreed! I'd like to see the war end as well. It doesn't do anyone any good other than create sadness. 🙌

Thank you very much Glen! I'm happy you like my content. Cheers!

Hey... thanks Howard! Glad you made time to watch. I sure appreciate it. Yes the cast shadows are subtle, maybe I should have gone a little further with it? 🙌🙂

Здравствуйте. хорошая работа. есть чему поучиться. Не надо политики. не надо войны. это ужасно.

Thanks!🙂🙌🏻

Thank you!🙂🙌🏻

Glad you liked it. Thanks!🙌🏻🙂

Thanks so much, I really appreciate you taking the time to comment sir! 🙌

Well like anything I would do some tests if you can before trying it on your model, especially if you’re not familiar with the product. It really depends on which companies decals your using. Some decals work great with Micro Sol others are thicker and tougher which makes them difficult to conform so I like to use Solvaset for those. Be careful as some decal solutions will make the decal prints run or discolour. I hope this helps with your decisions.🙂🙌🏻

@@SmallSoldier well the spitfire from Tamiya will be my first build and I have some mark fit strong with it

@@OdysseyAviation I’ve used mark fit and it’ll work. You may need something a bit stronger if it’s being stubborn like micro soul. Good luck I hope your build goes well. 🙂🙌🏻

I also have other question . Do you think 17mL of dark green RAF color and 17mL of Brown RAF color will be enought for this build ?

I have MarkFit strong from Tamiya

Yes… yes I did. The parts fit so incredibly well there was no need for anything else.

Wow… that’s absolutely fantastic! Congratulations man! I’m glad I could help inspire some part in your success. Where’s my royalty cheque!😂😂

Thanks Chris!🙌🏻 Yeah it was a fun project but really took a lot out of me. I find it’s hard to stay consistent on CZcams. Thanks for watching I appreciate the support considering this video is not performing very well.🤔

Thank you sir, I’m so glad it was helpful. Yeah the candle and ca trick has saved me lots of $$$$. Cheers

Thanks! 🙌

😂 thank you!

@@SmallSoldier Was gonna say Arse booted but thought I'd keep it clean 👍

Sorry you we're offended by this video. You need to realize this was one of my early videos where I was trying to figure out lighting, sound, camera and editing software. I agree a voice over would have made this even better and if you watch any of my later videos pretty much everything has a very descriptive voice over and captions. You also should realize how much time and effort these videos take to create. I'm not doing this full time and try and produce the best possible product I can in the limited time I have to do it in... so I'd appreciate you taking all these factors into consideration. Thanks for you're feedback.

Thank you very much!🙂

Thanks!

Thanks, man! Yes, lots of fun on this guy. Cheers!

I don't understand this comment??
