Beautiful blue plastic and a nicely built 109.
Thanx much for the really nice build.
FWIW, German a/c this period were well maintained. Even in desert, the a/c had fitter covers to keep sand away. Except in highest wear places, like wing walks & crew seats, chipping/flaking was not an "issue" with RLM paints, an early form of synthetic resin paint. Nothing like the chipping issues of Japanese and, to a lesser extent U.S. lacquer paints.
Thank you for the video, really good to see. Keep up the good work I really enjoy watching your videos and it’s nice not having to see someone sat in front of 100’s of bottles of paints and tools etc. which to me seems to make the hobby exclusive rather than inclusive. Mike
Thanks Mike :)
Hey there
Mentioned last time (the Black Hawk video) how much you've come-on in modelling and presentation skills - it's great to see. Have a tip you (and anyone else) may consider for Luftwaffe schemes:
Try applying the fuselage mottling first (like we do with a marble coat), take it right up the sides, then when you apply the more solid camouflage tones to the upper sides, you already have the patchy effect in-place. I've used this technique for about eight years and always works for me... Just a thought for you to have-a-try-with.
All the best from the other end of the Pacific. (yes I re-subscribed too !)
Beautiful work. Your airbrush skills are exceptional
Beautifully done. Can't wait for the next project.
Thank you! 😊
Szép munka! Gratulálok! Én is ezt csinálom épp. Viszont én ennyire nem viszem túlzásba a koszolást, koptatást.
the silver layer to begin with is not at all a bad idea. the bf i'm making would have been a lil too thick with that too but now i'd not have the problem of finding a silver pencil to create the broken paint! i'm gonna try your method next time!
Outstanding work sir 👍🏻
I can’t believe that you had to hack all of the engine detail up so the cowl would fit. What a shame & not what I would expect from Eduard. 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
When I build a kit with an engine but decide the close the cowl (rare), I always build/detail the engine, make some sort of stand and display the engine next to the completed kit. No fit issues, best of both worlds.
I'm always amazed why people go thru so much effort to chip and weather just to apply gloss clear and make it shiny, this is pure model building ADHD, never being sure which route to take. Excellent work a bit confusing to look at.
On Bf 109E's cockpit was painted with RLM 02!!! But despite that nice model!
Great job my friend! Love the way it turnrd out
Thank you! Cheers!
I have already commented on this beautiful build before, but building one myself just had to go back to the post to see how it's done by a master, i'm stealing some of your tricks, if that's ok? If it turns out as good as yours, then wow, i'll send you some photos.
Very nice
Amazing quality of the video, as always, but that's expected now. The amount of videos you upload in a week is quite staggering- for lack of a better word, as compared to other channels! Wish you luck mate!
Really nice work, looks great! 👍🏻👍🏻
great!!
Really nice work. I would not not be so brave to weather it like that. Truly brilliant work. :-) How about a He 219 Uhu for next project ? :-)
Awesome👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
It certainly makes the old Tamiya kit look more that a little dated doesn't it?
It would have been nice to know what paints you used.
Amazing example. Top marks!, do you have any experience with the davinci flat brushes ? Or have any particular brushes reccomend for large paint jobs , wings, fuselage ect, luke
if you like brushpainting and I know i'm hella late, Citadel Base XL brush worked fine for me for years before I moved to an airbrush. Thin your plaints and take care of your brush it will serve you well
Hi,
I came across your youtube channel and love how they are so detailed
Great work...
I would like to know are u based in india??
And if yes where do u get the tamiya products??
Thank you
Hi Binoy, I was based in India but have moved to Singapore some time back. But I am still part of Indian Scale Modellers group. We have a page on fb and if you are already not signed up you should. Getting Tamiya products in India (actually anywhere) is not easy, since the paints are not 100% water based, no one will airmail them. Surface mail is not reliable. While in India, I used to order Vallejo or Mig paints, these are water based and will be shipped directly.
www.migjimenez.com/en/
Vallejo paints I bought through Hobby Link Japan.
www.hlj.com/
You can also get kits, tools, etc. from HLJ. They ship quickly and relatively cheaply. But make sure you don't order too much at once or the parcel will get intercepted by customs. Once again, do join ISM on fb and you will get a lot of helpful tips from fellow modellers in India :)
Wow great job. Where do you set your airbrush to on psi? Your painting is awesome.
Thanks Copper69. Usually I start about 15 psi and from there increase or decrease the pressure to get the best possible result. If I am spraying over large areas I usually stick to 15 psi or a little more. If I am trying to do a little more precise work (like mottling), I cut back on the psi and thin down the paint just a wee bit.
I have 3 questions I have been wondering recently watching your videos
Is water an acceptable substitute for water?
And whats the difference between using a
wash and line accent?
Is there any universal guide to using certain color washes? I have been getting mixed results using brown on some colors and black on others, thanks!!
Right then.
1. Water is an acceptable substitute for water...lol....i think you got a typo there in the question :)
2. Broadly there are two ways to apply a wash...sludge or pin/line wash. When you paint the entire kit with a wash that is usually a sludge wash. When you apply the wash only in the panel lines, that is a pin or line wash. Which technique you chose depends on the final effect you want from the finished kit. For example, a pin wash would perhaps be more suited to a pristine finish model, a sludge may perhaps to better with a more weathered aircraft. Also, the sludge wash adds some colour hue to the kit as well.
3. About the choice of colour. Usually, one goes by where the aircraft would be located. So North African aircraft would probably get a light brown wash or sand coloured, Russian a much darker wash...so on. In fact there are several washes specifically made for various theaters of war. But one need not buy every wash, a few references on the forums will tell you which type of wash is best for which aircraft. Also, I usually use grey washes on dark coloured aircraft so that the panel lines would show. I am not myself very particular about soil colour and so forth, I just follow broad rules. In the end, if all else fails, go with what you like :)
Hope that helps...good luck with your builds.
How do the photoetched parts stay on the model? Super thin or super glue?
Normally Super Glue, extra thin won't hold PE parts. I do sometimes use old fashioned white glue for PE.
Hey Ninja....I use medium super glue. Firstly, as darson100 puts is super thin glue tends to make a rather brittle joint. But, for me, the bigger reason is that thin super glue cures within seconds and that makes making adjustments to the placement of the piece very difficult. Medium super glue takes a little longer to cure and one has the chance to move it about a little. Like when one has to line up the base of the instrument panel with the face of the panel. As a result, my preferred choice is medium super glue.
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Ok. thanks for the info.
What's that pencil thing you're using at 6:54? did you just dip a pencil in paint?
Hey Danco...these are water colour pencils. These are from AK Interactive and meant for modelling, however, normal water colour pencils work just as well and I have used them for several years. Hope that helps :)
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Thank you. Ill look into it. I just got into minis and I may have a serious problem now. i cant stop.
All facts aside, did anyone think the white part of the plane blend into the wall?
Idk, fooled me at least.
Previously I commented on other modelers videos building the Bf 109 E. I stated, that from late 1939 fighters received the than new camouflage scheme of three grey tones (RLM 74, 75, 76), older aircraft too. As I occupied myself with german camouflage colors over several years, I think I know a little bit about the issue. But that's like talking against a wall. Bf 109 E's were camouflaged in RLM 71 dark green and RLM 02! Period! But the model here does not even depict the correct shade of RLM 02. It's just a fantasy color shade. So in my opinion -contrary to the many omnipresent adulators- this is just another mediocre model...
You are incorrect. The RLM revision of the L.Dv. 521/1 dated March 1938 was not revised officially until November 1941 (and the revision still carried the 1938 origination date), though some manufacturers seem to have been experimenting with the 74/75/76 scheme as early as April/May 1941. Even after the order the 71/02/65 scheme remained in use for some time on operational day fighters. At any rate, both dates are well after the BoB period culminating in September 1940. Do your homework and get your facts straight, no one wants to hear unsupported OPINION. Nice work on the model!
