- This is a full video build of the Hobby Boss F-84E Thunderjet.
This is a long video, in fact it's the longest on my channel. It could have been longer as I've cut quite a bit out.... you have been warned.
Narration was very good, however in bits where the music and the narration were both on the music was a bit loud and made it difficult to hear you sometimes. Great build though and good to see you back
Cheers Ian. Yeah… iMovie usually auto edits speech and music. Usually. I did have manually edit some parts, looks like I missed some more.
Ah, there you are! Nice to see you again.....
Personally, I've always thought the Thunderjet an ungainly looking aircraft and youve caught the essence of that perfectly. That's not meant as a back-handed compliment..... that's a terrific build! 👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Ha Septic! I’m about mate but getting vids out isn’t as easy as it was.. cheers bud
@@TimsScaleModelling As and when, guv'nor.......as and when.
Great build but the background music spoiled the video 😢.
Very nice kit build F-84E Thunderjet love jets.
Extremely impressive! If you put this on a scale runway and told me it was real I wouldn't question it for a second.
If I had room or was going to shows, I would knock up a base for it Scale… many thanks for the comment 😊
It's really good to see you back on the bench Tim. Great video as always cheers take care.
As a Korean war enthusiast I've built nearly every single aircraft from the UN side in 1/72. You've done a terrific job on that kit!
I’m only slightly interested in Korea, it’s the prop/jet crossover that’s get me. Cheers Jake
Pretty cool to see an F-84 with the 9th fighter squadron emblem, I had a friend who was in the 9th as a crew chief on the F-117. You did an excellent job on this F-84 kit!
Thanks Max. I bet your mate has some great pics of this time in service
Hats off to you Tim. You nailed that. Stunning looking finish!
Thank you Alan.. a couple more silver birds then I’m done with them 😂
So glad you did this kit. One thing about seatbelts. USAF cockpits from.the late 40s thru to around 55 were pretty much the same. You could get P80, T33, or F86 seatbelts and they would do the job. I'll add this because it wasn't clearly written. The cockpit weren't the same but the seat harness was. Lol
Ah thanks Will..
Finished build looks fantastic! I personally like a video with narration in so I'd say keep it up.
Thanks Dan, yeah it’s something I’m going to build on… ditch the tunes.
Great video Tim! Glad I found your channel and subscribed. I agree with you that by having everything opened on an aircraft it takes away from the overall look of it. I can see why people do it, because we all love seeing lots & lots of detail in miniature. I personally may build a few with open panels and such, but only if the aircraft will be part of a diorama.
Exactly that Ken, totally agree with you. Thanks mate
Lovely build, Tim.
Thanks Sprue
Awesome as usual Tim ❤
Beautiful build!!! I love your work!!!!
Very kind Mr 😊
If you sand the side of the photoetch you are glueing to the model you wont have to worry about it pinging off. Sanding with 220 or 320 grit give the superglue something to bite into rather than a smooth piece.
I have to say that is an absolutely beautiful finished model. Well done. Those markings came out perfect! I like the more vibrant colors for the markings, and that AK extreme metal looks fantastic. I have been using the Alclad paints for my metalics, but I have not done a full metalic finish yet.
I picked up the Zotz decal set for the F84G but I think I will grab a mask set for my insignia too.
I liked the narration style. You earned yourself a subscriber!
Top comment MF 🤣. I don’t like working with photoetch, you may have noticed, but yes a quick rough up is good. I’m glad I didn’t use the main decals as they were quite brittle, I struggled a lot with the stencils. Having said all this, it’s still a lovely kit.
Cheers mate 🍻👌
@@TimsScaleModelling It looked like it went together well, so I am excited to start mine.
Let us know how you get on
Absolutely fantastic build!
Thank you so much Alc
That's a beauty
Beautiful build. What a stunner.
I must use masks soon. They look fantastic.
Cheers Pete… yep, I’m converted. I can’t say I’ll use masks on every build but defo will using them more.
Impressive job there, Tim....what a monster and so beautiful at the same time. I like the way you interspersed the music and speaking...the 47.00 disappeared before I knew it and the final reveal was marvellous. Given the success, will you be thinking maybe another 1/32 might be in the offing in the future??
Ah that’s great Robbo, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’ve just started a little CA Vampire for my Facebook page but after that..? Maybe..
Intriguing aircraft, as you say. Straight wings and vertical tail, heavy framing on the canopy makes it look like a prop plane- but it’s got a jet engine! I enjoyed your build but as one or two others have mentioned the music was a bit dominant over some of the narration.
I didn’t realise the F84 was a development of the P47!! Thanks for the comment Ian
Cool 🛩 I'm a new Subscriber on your channel.
I always find Montex masks don’t fit and are usually short / small. Also find they lose adhesion and regularly come away. Eduard masks are always my preference and generally are much better.
Yes Phil you’re quite right but Eduard masks ain’t perfect by any means. CT on EBay are the best I’ve used.
Nice build and video, but agree - the music is unnecessary and quite jarring.
Hi Nazza… point taken mate 👍
Hi Tim - any chance you could kill the music while you are talking as it's difficult to hear what you are saying.
Yes Mike. Going forward I think I will. Having said that tho, you’d have to listen to me instead!! 😳
@@TimsScaleModelling Thanks - listening to your narrative and watching you work is what it's all about 👍
Fair enough 🫠😄
Sorry - had to turn the video off after 10 minutes due to the extremely annoying “music”.
