I'm 61 years old and just getting into modeling. Helps alot. Thank you.
Went and bought a kit for the first time in 20 years and totally botched it. Watching this series gave me the confidence to go back and get that same kit again today and try again. Thank you so much for this walkthrough. I really appreciated your long-form attention to detail. Cheers.
Thank you so much for this video series. I’m recently retired and have been trying to get back in to model car building. I loved doing it tremendously when I was younger. I’m not building for any type of show, I just want to display them on my dresser. I’m really not wanting to spend tons of money on equipment. Your videos detailed the way I used to build models and you did an excellent job of showing and explaining how it can be done using simple old school techniques. Your model turned out great! And it looked fun. That’s the way it ought to be.
Thank you for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed it! The biggest point of this hobby is to have fun!
I have not built any model kits in over two and a half decades. Thank you for putting together this series. I’m building a diorama which will have 3 model kits that need assembling/building. Thanks again.
An absolutely incredible video series on how to get started assembling models. Thank you. I'm looking forward to my first build in 50 years. 1970 Chevelle SS
Thanks so much! It makes me very happy that you’re jumping back in. Can’t wait to see the Chevelle!
Nice work. Really nice, and I totally agree on that wash thing.
I`m a washaholic and wash everything, engine, tires, seats, rims and all chrome details. Brings life to your model.
Since I discovered "Bare Metal" I quit painting chrome details. Saved me tons of time and cursing. 😆
Wow, beautiful! Bought a 2007 SRT8 Super Bee kit to match my car. I haven't built a kit in 50 years but I plan to do a perfect job. Thanks for the series!
okay. you've convinced me to try a model car again after 35 years. good video, and thanks
You make it look so easy. I don't expect my, first, will go at all smooth.
Oh well live and learn.
jmad627 take your time and you’ll do fine. Most importantly, have fun!!
Angelo's Workbench thanks! I have a 69 Camaro.
Anyways one piece at a time.
Just wanted to say thanks for this series. You motivated me to try a hobby I use to enjoy as a kid. Very informative and a great base to work from when starting our.
I really enjoyed this series!! Thank you!!
Thank you for your great videos. I am 53 and I am going to attempt my 1st model build.
You know your videos are so detailed I didn't know how to put decals now I do I can't believe you made it so easy and funny thank you for your teaching I learned a lot from you
Thank you for this series. I always wanted to put together model cars but never knew anyone who did it that could help get me started. Now I am retired and looking for hobbies. This video series was a great help.
I'm really glad I found this. I've been in a real slump for awhile now and your series has brought me back to the bench. Thank you for your time
K.P.M.777 awesome to hear! Thanks!!!
Very nice work and a lot of info I'm 52 and have been building models since I was 9 years old and have learned some new tricks from your videos thank you
great series - thanks Angelo
Thank you thank you thank you. This car looks great. I learned so much. I fooled around with a few kits when I was younger and now approaching 60 it has been calling my name. I now have 3 kits sitting here waiting. Muscle Car Fan
clubmidnightsun sounds like you have a lot of fun ahead of you! Enjoy!
Excellent series. I am just getting back into model cars after 40 years away. Very information, I learned a lot. Thanks for showing all this.
Angelo you are build master, excellent job. In 83 I built a 69 SS396 from the ground up.I finished in 85.
Excellent Job Angelo.
Thank you for sharing your Tips with us. This series pushed me to try cars. I build planes and tanks of WW2 till today. Now i am interessted to try cars. Thank you for wake up this interrest in me😂. And great work on this kit. Love it.👍Greets from Germany.
Loved this series! Just getting back into car models!
There is not much more I can say other than "WOW"!!!!! Awesome !
I have been laid off, but on a recall list so I hope....this video series is great, I have ordered a model and the basics, as a teenager I was always very frustrated with modeling. You have taught me some great things to make it enjoyable and doable. I have a 69 gto on the way.
Sorry about the lay-off - hope you get back soon. 69 GTO is an amazing car. Good luck and have fun!
Awesome job
Very nice work
You did an excellent job with this series of videos. You gave a lot of great tips that even an advanced modeler can benefit from seeing. Thanks for your effort in putting these videos together.
good series. I have not built a model since I was 15 with mono.... am 41 now.
I also like to sand the tire tread.
Looks amazing fantastic video
You do fantastic work . It makes me think I can actually do it after being away from modeling for a long time and not wanting to commit to all the fancy equipment at the start thank you .
Thank you for this series, I work at Hobby Lobby and they gave me the Hobbies Department and I knew nothing about these products before!
Charger looks awesome Angelo. Had a few good tips in this one for us old guys. Ron
Very informative build series, many thanks for taking the time to put these clips together as it's given me the confidence to tackle my own build... A 69 Dodge 440 "Six Pack"
James C thanks James. Love the 440 six pack - it’s a great kit. Enjoy!
Very nice job
Stumbled upon I your channel, have to say it is absolutely fantastic. As a returnee to the hobby after 30 years it's a real help I've just completed my first build which didn't turn out as well as I'd have liked. I rushed to complete it at the end but I learned a lot and watching this I've got s few more techniques to try out so hopefully I'll get a better result this time. Thank you
Thanks Chris! Feel free to reach out with any questions!
I am new to building models and have watched this series, very imformitive it has helped with buying what I need to start, plus all of your tips thank you.
Wow Great Job...Outstanding, very informative.
Great build you have done there! I would love to see model car manufacturers supply their kits with weighted and bulged tires, like how they are found in aircraft kits. It would push the realism through the roof!
richw0123 you could probably do that with a little careful heat and practice!
The B-Body Dodge Charger. The sexiest car ever.
I would enjoy seeing more close-up shots.
I liked the tip on coloring the front valance turn signals. I usually do something similar with tail lights. I have found that the clear red tail light lenses tend to "get lost" in the over-all
build (especially if the body color is also red). I have found, that if you paint the backside of the red lens white, the effect on the finished build is much more pronounced and tends
to define the area a little better.
Thank you for the tips and explaining your process.
Just amazing! Also great kit!
Awesome informative Series Angelo, loved all the tips/tricks for Detailing in paint/dry brushing!! Till next time, God Bless All
Really cool! Thanks for sharing the process. Haven't done one of these since I was a kid and would love to get back into it.
Adam Hajnos no better time than the present! I find it’s a great stress reliever.
Great Series Angelo!
I know its the silver around windows that is going to trip me up! You made it look so fast and easy....
Allessio777 thanks for watching. Mask carefully with the yellow tape and spray light coats. It’ll come out great.
Great! Wow last shots of completed car look so real it's amazing. I'm subscribing!!!
Great job !
Thank you!
Nice job, very instructive.
I'm getting ready to start my very first build, and I'm so thankful to have found this series of videos! Thank you for taking the time to do this! I'm looking forward to using this as a jumping off point for developing my modeling skills!
Toby Quinton that’s exactly why I made them. Have fun and thanks!!!
Smooth work !!!
👍😎
Nice job. Your Charger looks great.
Your experience sure makes it look easy. I've built a couple of models as an adult but years apart and years ago. Many of your techniques I have never seen nor used. My bench is torn down for a room rehab at the moment but I'll be reviewing this series when It gets back together. I'm hoping by the middle of next month. I have 2-3 kits waiting and a WIP that hasn't made it to the paint yet.
Deland Brooks keep me up to date on your progress. Good luck and have fun!
Great job...watched all the vids!!!
Beautiful!
Wow, just finished binge watching this series and it was great. I used to build models in this fashion as a kid many years ago and it is nice to see such good results just using basic tools and equipment. Thanks for all the great info and excellent tips and tricks. Things seem to have changed most in the glue types as all we used as kids was a little metal tube of very stinky thickish glue that was a bloody mess most of the time. This makes me want to head to the local model shop and pick up a kit and all the bits to paint and assemble it just to give it a try again. Thanks for doing this series of videos as it was good to see a lot of the details that are on the unbox and build sites though they are awesome to watch as well.
Norman Humphrey give it a shot! It’s a lot of fun!
really love the red line tires
very very nice.well done
Angelo: I really enjoyed your 7 part series of this build. Can't speak for everyone, but sometimes I think I am "above" or choose to work around basic, beginner steps, which at times could spell disaster to my build. In regards to the rear trunk decal, for these I prefer to let the decal dry, once its in place. I then make my cuts with the x-acto blade and apply additional setting solution. Nice build!
that is a sweet ride
Beautiful job!
great build
Great stuff!!!
Beautiful!👍
That was great, I really enjoyed building that car with you
nice well done in begginer level thanks scooter d
Brilliant!!
That was really kool. I'm gonna try
From a newbie brilliant!
The finished model looks awesome - great job!
Personally, I put the chrome doo-dads on at the very last - the door handles, wiper blades, and mirrors - because they are WAY too easy to knock off while handling.
Bad to the bone brother keep up the awesome work
Love everything about the model except the hood decals. Hemi should have written clear. Nice build. Thanx!
Awesome stuff bro. I've never used heat on decals and don't seem to remember hearing people do that
Wheatons speed shop a little heat with the micro sol works wonders. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial
Great video bud you just got new subscriber
Idk y but the music @ the end game me nostalgia
Thank you 🤙
Not to sound like a critic but hemis never came with air conditioning due to too big of a cam those are heater hoses
Beautiful.. I can't wait to start mine. But I'm having a hard time finding that blue..
Thanks very much. Any blue will do. Lol. I hope you have fun building it!
@@AngelosWorkbench but I like that blue bcuz it seems like a mettalic blue.
Magnifique travail mon ami et bonne explication très beau modèle je suis abonné 👍
Magnificent work my friend and good explanation very nice model
I enjoy watching your video this is a pleasure for the eyes
I am subscribed of France 🇫🇷👍
And I would be proud to have you as subscriber too 👍
Thank you for this series, I enjoyed it and learnt a lot. I’m reviving my childhood hobby and relearning everything. I’m waiting for some models and tools that I ordered. In the meantime, I’m gathering info by watching great videos like these.
A question on the paints, how do you know which colours to get in spray and which normal? I’m planning my paint purchase and not sure how best to do this.
That’s a good question. I base whether to buy spray or brush paints based on the size of the part. For me I prefer to spray the larger parts like the interior, chassis, and the body and then you can brush paint the smaller parts. Of course nothing says you can’t spray all the parts which is what I usually do. Glad you enjoyed the series good luck on your build and have fun!!!
Great looking model! You did a good job. What kit did you start with? There are many 19070 kits I’ve found. Found it from the first video of the series. Thanks
Great video I have a question so when painting how long do you wait between coats ? And is the same for Clear coat ? Thanks
Great video series, watched them all. One question for you. The Testors glue that you use from the black container, I use the same. I noticed that you applied the glue to painted surfaces. Does it stick properly? I've always scraped away the paint from both surfaces before sticking them together. Thanks again sir.
Don Alexander I probably should too..... thanks.
I like very much i am just getting back in this i am 71
Hey Angelo! Beautiful job on this Charger. How did you get the wipers off? Wouldn't cement solvent warp the plastic? Thx!
Patrick Demets hello! I got lucky and they came off easily.
Hi Angelo, super cool series. I noticed you haven’t been priming the smaller parts before paint. Should I only be priming larger parts?
Hey Ron. It’s really a personal preference. I prefer not to use primer on smaller parts since I’ve never had an issue. However some people like to prime all parts. There really isn’t a right or wrong - just preference. Thanks!
How do you get the license plate/tag so detailed? Did I miss how you did it somehow?
Was that bottle for washer fluid or the antifreeze overflow bottle? It’s proximity in the model looks closer to the radiator so it’s more likely the antifreeze overflow bottle. Usually the washer fluid bottle was mounted to the firewall or on the back of the left wheel well.
So for all the decals aside from the hood decals do you just wet them with water and stick them on??
Hi Angelo, on this Charger that I'm doing I'm a little confused as to how you clear coat the rear part that holds the lights. I'm doing it separately from the rest of the body. I am wondering how you wet sand, buff, and polish apart with all of these high and low places. I guess I would like to know how you did it. Mac
Michael McNeive I don’t go too crazy on buffing and polishing. As long as you get the flat surfaces smooth it will look great.
Are you not supposed to do the decals after painting and then add the clear coat over it all?
Angelo great series, what glue did you use to put the chrome mirrors on the painted body?
George Taylor I like Bob Smith Industries Super Gold Plus for that. It pretty easy to use and you only need the tiniest amount.
@@AngelosWorkbench thanks
Awsome build just wondering why you painted the valve covers orange
Harold Wilson I really like orange!
@@AngelosWorkbench I was just wondering because hemis have blk valve covers or chrome
What are the adventages of using the sharpies VS Tamiya's transparent paint? Also, the blinkers on the sides, are they molded in, or did they add those decals 'cuz they're not molded in the body?
ChasseGallerie I don’t have anything against the clear Tamiya paints. I have just found the sharpies look as good and are much easier. The lights are molded in also on the body. Which is nice because if you line up the decal correctly, once it settles in, it looks great since there is some texture to go with the decal. Thanks for watching!
Me and my teen son building our first model car together. 70 1/2 Camaro. Could you direct me to how utilize a builders kit, especially the seperator and the stylus.
Is building a car from scratch really good for beginners? I'm think I should start by learning how to do an oil change or change a tire first, but I don't think I have any wrenches that small.
Mark B nice Mark. Don’t you have anything better to do out there? Lol
Where do you get your paint,brushes and equipment
Eli Phillips I get them from so many places. Tower Hobbies, Amazon, EBay, Hobby Lobby, misc hobby stores, etc.
What is the name of blue paint color? In the early video i heard "bright blue aqua" ???Does not seem aqua !
The camera plays tricks with colors sometimes especially metallics. It’s pretty aqua in person! I hope you enjoy the series. Thanks.
