- Eduard 1/48 Scale Model Aircraft by The Inner Nerd
Instructional time lapse video of the full-build, paint and weathering of the 1/48 scale Messerschmitt BF109 G-5 by Eduard Porfipack as shown by The Inner Nerd
The first part of this video shows the use of Photo etch parts and scratch building techniques to detail hydraulic pipes and electrical cables professionally and cheaply around both the cockpit and wheel bays.
The second part shows surface preparation techniques such as filling panel gaps and seams with modelling filler and sanding them smooth to get a seamless join between parts. Also basing techniques are included in this section using Mr Hobby "Mr Surfacer 1200 & 1500" to prime the surface ready for painting.
The third part of the video demonstrates the black-basing technique used to achieve a pre-weathered look and surface texture replicating that of an aged and worn aircraft. Harder & Steenbeck Evolution Silverline is used at an operating pressure of 15PSI and a 0.15mm needle + nozzle during this process.
Decals follow painting with the aid of Mr Hobby Mr Mark Setter & Softer products. These products allow the decal to form to the shapes and panel lines of the surface which you can see in the video.
Next is the weathering of the model. This is started using Abteilung 502 oil paints thinned to a wash consistency. Then used as panel line wash the oil is applied across the model to achieve a dirty, grimey & worn look.
The final part of the video explains the final assembly of small parts including landing gear, lights, antennas and canopy fitment as the model nears completion. All final assembly is completed with CA superglue.

55 years ago when I was a kid I remember trying to paint the spinner spiral and the mottling with a paint brush. I would have dropped dead to see a model like this back then. Fantastic!
Amazing paint job. 10 thumbs up. Thanks for sharing 👍
The only part missing for me is the running of the antenna. It`s like the peeling off of plastic from shiny surfaces to complete a build. Always a relaxing enjoyable experience to watch thank you for posting .
I really like where you have progressed in your video editing. Nice work on my second favourite plane. My first being the Phantom.
Young man, your work is Inspiring. Watching you makes me want to get to modeling again. Perhaps watching your techniques will enable me to be the modeler I've always wanted to be. Thank you
Stunning work once again . The paint scheme and weathering techniques are first class. The marbling effect you've used has produced a very effective result. Very well done 👍
This guys modeling techniques are off the scale, totally amazing👍
Absolutely
A true museum quality build!!! A cut above the ordinary to say the least!!!
Great skills on display as always. Well done and keep up this great work.
Have fun,
Joe
Beautifully done my friend. Another sublime finish. A real treat to watch. I`m really enjoying your `marbling` paint style.
You're reaching Plasmo levels of mastery, good job mate!
Oh give me a break. This guy is every bit as good as any other model builder on CZcams. Especially in the attention to the most minute detail. The base coat marbling is one of the things that makes his finish coat look great. And this isn't taking away anything from Plasmo.
Ok, I`ll say it.....IN is a more accomplished painter than Plasmo, and I think Plasmo is masterful. Plasmo also knows presentation, he`s a great videographer, that goes a long way in CZcams scale modelling. But for me IN shows the nuts and bolts of painting. Also, as Yoda might say, "There is another".....check out ScaleModelAircraft, and you have the three best YT modellers going today.
I`ve seem Scale-a-ton but not the others. Thanks man, I`ll check them out.
I have watched this so many times - I love it
Thank you
That is easily the most beautiful model I have ever laid eyes on. Fantastic job as usual.
Man you’re great at what you do!
All I can say is, WOW!
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
That is a simply perfect Bf109. As always beautifully built.
I like your style of making a model kit.Welldone.Beutifull done.Thanks for sharing.
I've come back to watch this again. Inspiring work. You are one of the CZcamsers who has taught me many very good techniques.
Thank you and that's great to hear! I'm pleased the video is helping you with your own work. Thanks for watching :)
Just superb my friend! Well done!
Excellent work!
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
Well done on a nice build. i have built this kit in different markings and love it. Love the split screen and the editing.
Magnifique, bravo !
I really like how you edited the video this time, and your build looks perfect as always.
Great job on a really interesting colour scheme! Just did an Eduard ProfiPack 109 myself (the F-4)... they are just such a pleasure to build and work with! A unique Gustav you've created :-)
You did a great job on this!!! I mostly do sci-fi and tanks but after watching your channel I am going to try a plane next year
Master piece .... from a Master...!!!!
Great work.
Stunning!
awesome build!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a masterpiece! 🏆
Sehr gute Arbeit 🤘
Just fantastic!
Great result
Очень круто получилось!
Excellent Job. Items used very useful 👍
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
I'll be watching again 👍👍
Muy buen trabajo!!
Amazing work! Really well detailed and you got some amazing airbrushing skills. Love the split screen but id suggest leaving a thin black rule or space between the two so it doesn't confuse the eye too much where they overlap. Cheers.
That´s not Modelmaking, that´s Art!!! ;-/)
also nice video edit, his one !
nice...nice....and nice..... beautiful bf109....
На мой взгляд это твоя лучшая работа.
nice work
This is the first time I’ve seen that rivet tool actually be used. I just received mine in the mail yesterday and am anxious to try it out. It’s the Trumpeter brand.
It's a decent tool to have, especially with the various blades that came with mine. I do find that the wheel can be too big for tighter radius' though so the SBS rivet tool is better for wing roots for example. Good luck with yours and thanks for watching :)
Just godlike!!!!!!!!!
Really looks like aged steel. Good job.
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
Another beautiful & well executed build, always a pleasure to watch. I would love to see a Russian subject built Mig 3 or maybe a IL2, La5/7 or something modern? Only a suggestion. Thanks.
GREAT!
Вот это "лепешку" фриц отложил, да еще по всей кабине размазало :))))) Шутка, шикарный мессер!!!
Awesome
Magnifico

Beautiful work. Suddenly, I have an urge to either tackle a Spitfire, or a Flying Porcupine (B-17). :)
Flying porcupine... You're thinking of the Short Sunderland. That's what the Germans called it.
Wow
I doubt you're going to be looking at these comments now but something that I would like to tell you for the future is that world war two fighters of any nation except for the Japanese did not have seat cushions so your green putty is not necessary. Pilots actually sat on their parachutes as a seat cushion. It probably doesn't matter for a scale model but I just wanted to try to share some knowledge about this topic. The model is amazing and I hope you keep up the incredible work.
... such a generalisation... you don't think SOME guys were shorter in the torso /upper body... or had shorter legs while still meeting the criteria for size and weight allowances... or that a 'chute, unused for year's, handled regularly, wouldn't compress to necessitate the need for extra padding... regardless, you don't think that a parachute may not be the most comfortable thing on it's own under your arse a few times a day, day in, day out... get real... you'd have to be a gamer or someone with absolutely no working knowledge of machines like these things... I drove 1750 - 3200bhp Diesel Locomotives for a lot of years and they have the beat seats - like an airline pilot's couch... yet you're bum still hurts from motion and the amount of time sitting... what a crying shame idiots like you comment with such all encompassing notions, disregarding artistic licence, imagination and insight into reality...
@@christiankirkwood3402 I understand what you're saying. However, a chute would would not be unused for a year in fact pilots often repacked them every day to make sure of their reliability. I am sure, as you say there were some instances where pilots needed a bit of extra padding to see over the nose of the aircraft but I am sure that that was very rare. For the 109 in particular the fuselage was very small which meant that pilots were almost never unable to see over the indicator panel. In fact it was so cramped that most pilots over 5 foot 10 would be transferred to bombers because they were too big to fit in the cockpit of 109s and 190s. I agree with you that parachutes wouldn't have been comfortable to sit on but they did it out of necessity because it was the only place it would fit because of how small the cockpit was. If they wore it behind them they would be too close the instrument panel. Lastly, my gripe isn't with the build or the artistic liberty he takes. In fact I love Inner Nerd's builds its just a slight bit of knowledge I wanted to share.
@@royking7304... you make a good point but if you think in an idiot who thought that pilots of these aircraft's actually wore a 'chute on their back... c'mon, I'm an amateur historian, I'm 58 years old, been building scale model aircraft for 50 years and know my onions... you don't have explain visibility issues over instrument panel combing or cowling's... I related to size and weight restrictions, also body type... my grandfather flew his 40 in a Lancaster Mk1 with 460 squadron and I know those guys had 'riggers' who regularly re - packed and checked 'chute's... but a chute that is sat on day in, day out, no matter how regularly repacked, would ALWAYS pack to the same dimensions, even tighter and... lessor being squashed into the conformity of a pressed metal couch... you fail to think laterally or want to embrace any train of thought other than you're own... opinion - just remember the "Spitfire Rule" - for every one, there is an exception... kindest regards to you sir :)
@@christiankirkwood3402 I don't think your an idiot and I hope you don't think I'm an idiot either. Thanks for the conversation. Kind regards to you as well.
@@royking7304... further to tour point about alluding to the notion that I was labouring under the misapprehension about pilots of this type of fighter aircraft actually wearing a 'chute on their back... mmm... you know, sine Spitfire pilots couldn't even do up the harness once in the Cockpit... they often times literally threw the' chute into the 'tub' and did their best to work their way into the harness and seat harness during the scramble...taxi... take off and climb... most pilots hoped they would be able to nurse a shot up aircraft to any sort of landing than actually bail out... something considered as being, albeit necessary in circumstances, extremely dangerous... a weird juxtaposition, yet reality at the time... I, too, deal in reality... again I offer you my KIND REGARDS :)
like it much
Well done and... good luck with the ASK chipping solution, lol
Show de bola
Very professional indeed. NOTE: The swastika on the tail shall not be parallel to the vertical stabiliser leading edge, but rather like it is hanging from a rope. (The corners shall be true horizontally and true vertically)😊
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
Están perros los videos
Awesome job as always! I have two question if you dont mind:
1- Usually in your videos, you do: 3 gloss layers - decals -3 gloss layers - sanding decals with p2000/3000 - Tamiya polishing compound all the surface.
But this time, you didnt use the polishing compound, why? Is not required?
2- Didnt you use a matte coat to finish the model? You usually do it also in your videos, but this time it didnt appear.
Thanks and looking forward for your next videos, cant wait! :)
Sergio Paez Thank you. Yes I used the same process as my other videos in terms of clear layering and polishing. I left out the info on this video as it can be seen on my others. Also I wanted to keep the video time short
Impressive build. Did you go to the Tamworth show at the weekend?
Great model. Is the gunsight missing?
Great build. How did you do the antenna wire that runs from the cockpit to the tail ??
I use fishing wire attached with a small blob of CA superglue. I recommend using CA accelerator/activator to speed the drying time as its a bit of a pain
Por favor!! De donde has sacado las plantillas del camuflaje? Las has bajado de internet? Si es así pásame el link
Great build, just a question. The camouflage on the wings you gave a feathered edge but I assumed the splinter pattern on 109s was hard edged ???
Thank you! And the splinter camo as far as I'm aware has a slightly feathered edge. I may be wrong but this particular aircraft was resprayed from number Black 18 to White 2 so I assume that the camo would be hand painted over the original masked version from the original scheme
@@TheInnerNerd thanks for the reply. Quite difficult to know then. If I was doing a bf109 that was factory fresh could be hard edged but repainted might not be?. The schemes you get in the eduard packs always show hard edges for the wings and soft on the fuselage. I get the feeling theres going to be plenty of different opinions on this. I had the same issue when I did spitfire with many different opinions on it
What is the spray technic you are using, 'dot-like', even for larger surfaces? is it your own method that you came up with or something you heard to recemble reality better?
It's called Black Basing
Cool
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
Would pay you to do a model for me :) the 1/48 Tamiya Corsair in VMF-214 markings. :) Love your channel. Keep up the great work!!
*If you have a commission build you would like me to make* contact the.inner.nerdYT@gmail.com
Hey!!!! I have a challenge for your next video!!!! try to make the Guillows SE5A or the Fokker Dr.1 its all made out of wood and paper like a real ww1 plane!!!! BUT since its made to be a flying model the piece are no perfecly modeled and need be remake. SO HERES THE CHALLENGE: make the plane and try to make it look as realistic as possible and try to be able to make the prop spin (can do that with the airfix Electric engine)!!!!!
Good luck and have fun!!!!
DoNotEvenTry
Ugh, you again
Chin Chin The Dark Lord yeah is there a problem
Outstanding work, looking awesome!
Can you share your paint mix and air pressure for mottling/marble coat? I assume its about 1:3 paint:thinner and around 1 bar pressure, for tamiya? I tried marble coating but it resulted in splashes :/
Thanks
TheBornDrunk Yes around 1:3 thinner as you said. I run at 22psi and 0.15mm needle. If it splashes you are either too close or paint is too thin
The Inner Nerd Thanks, ill give it a try again (hopefully will start that fw190 d9 someday), however, I never had luck with Tamiya, no matter how I mix it always have issues when it comes to accurate lines. Mr.Hobby (gunze) was my solution here.
Thanks for the tip
Where did you find out these prints camouflages in 1:1:48? Need it to paint my recent bf 109 and spitfire. Thank you. Great job
I got them from Eduard. They do pre cut masks for the Erla scheme there. Thank you for watching 🙂
An impressive job, Nerd. Why do I find planes so much harder to do than armoured vehicles?
Thank you. I find armour easier too, I put it down to aircraft having an interior and landing gear. Smaller parts than that typically found on armour models making them more delicate. Also the weathering on aircraft is trickier too I find because its has to be more subtle and uniform than on a tank for example
I do love Eduard kits, its hard to find any faults in them and with the PE parts and masks very good value. Makes Tamiya seem a rip off and makes Airfix look like toys compared
I agrees, Eduard makes some of the best kits available in my experience. Tamiya seem a little simple and Airfix do feel toy-like unless you spend many extra hours detailing parts to make them look more realistic. Depends what you want I suppose and to what level you want to take it. I do love a good Airfix kit - takes me back to my childhood when I did a really bad job of them but they meant so much!!
Beautiful job. Please can you tell me the make of the model?
Phil O'Shaughnessy It is made by Eduard. The kit detail is on the opening page 👍
I have a question: why did you use PVA glue to fix the etches instead of cyanoacrylate glue? To the best of my knowledge, the cyanoacrylate glue has stronger adhesive force than PVA. Were they fixed well during airbrush work?
SJ JO For such small parts the PVA was nore controllable to apply. If left for a day to dry thoroughly it is suitably strong to hold through airbrushing and oil washes
I'm building this kit at the moment .I use Johnson clear for the pe parts of the instrument panel .it's worked for me no problem . better than super glue .more time to get it right .it's also use it for the clear parts 😆
Thanks, The Inner Nerd. I'll try it for my new model.
👍👍
Thank you and thanks for watching :)
hey man what item do you use for cover the cockpit?
I assume you mean to cover the cockpit whilst painting to protect the inside from over spray right? (8:17) .It's Tamiya masking tape
@@TheInnerNerd thank you for the answer
Нормально так немец на сиденье наложил, наверное наши напугали ))) Вообще то сиденье должно быть пустое.
Виталий Vint Using my imagination with that one. A scratch built cushion is hardly inaccurate...
It's not a pillow, it's a parachute. He was dressed on the body and did not lie in the seat. i33.fastpic.ru/big/2013/0811/f8/89d9e370eccebe25bb3d86bb21a412f8.jpeg The model is very good.
I meant to say "Inspiring" damn auto correct. Thank you anyway. I meant well and i fized it

Tez bym chciał sobie taki zrobić ale jak widzę co on tam odpierdala to aż się zniechęciłem xdd
remember that the '109 has a seemline on the spine.. it's supposed to be there. you'l see it on the real aircraft
Yes it's been pointed out further down the comments too. The seam is still there but very faintly and doesn't show well in the photos. Maybe a rescribe would make it look more defined
@@TheInnerNerd yea, just might. When I build a 109 I never do anything to the seem-line there other than sand it slighly to take out the rough edge. that way it looks natural :)
Kudos on the build... the musical accompaniment is just terrible... overly dramatic and just a distraction... :)
Yes I agree. I've since calmed down the music because I found it too stressful to re-watch. If you check out my later videos you'll thankfully find a much more tranquil soundtrack. Thank you and thanks for watching :)
@@TheInnerNerd good on you mate! I've subscribed as I enjoy the content and your editing is very good! kindest regards :)
