Looks good Mark, really like the intro of the kit history.
Revell Japan also released a great 1/32 scale kit of the Shiden back in the 70's, but it's very rare and expensive now. Can be found on Ebay now and then for $200 or more...up to maybe $300. It will never be produced again, as the molds were lost at sea.
It's a great kit. Hasegawa also released 1/48 scale kits of all models of the Shiden and the Shiden-Kai, and they are a bit better than the Tamiya kit in several respects (as you mentioned), but the Tamiya kit still makes a great model. Nice work!
This is an excellent build video. Very well filmed, clear and well lit. I love the fact that you didn't need to talk through the build, as each and every step was so clearly captured, along with tools/paints used that no words were necessary to convey what was being done. You show how a great result can be achieved straight from the box with nothing more than paint, glue some abrasives and the application of some basic but essential skills and techniques. All demonstrated without any fuss. I believe a total beginner would watch this and think 'I can do this' because you have communicated in a purely visual fashion exactly how to achieve the excellent model you ended the film with. I'm not an expert on these video builds and I would not presume to tell anyone who is brave enough to put their work on display like this how to do it, or say which way is best. However, I do feel that if the object of a you tube build video is to encourage other modellers, maybe new to the hobby, to start and finish a simple project from a good base kit, then you have succeeded beautifully with this film. It's so clear and concise and logical. I'll definitely look for more of your work. Thanks for posting this. Thumbs up!!
Thank you for such a kind comment, without any doubt the nicest I’ve ever received. I am glad you like the format, as sometimes it’s hard to know what resonates with people. Cheers Nick, I have a new video coming in a week or so
Great airbrush work! Those N1K1s were finished in dark green over natural metal undersides - though some subassemblies such as engine cowlings and underwing cannon pods were painted light gray. Most had the upper wing and fuselage hinomarus with the white border. Excellent model!
Looks fantastic Mark, well done. Love the kit info at the beginning as well.
I love Japanese aircraft and have this kit of the chubby George..Great video thank you and all the best from Blighty🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
Cheers Mate, thanks for commenting. I actually live in the UK, originally from Canada. All the best!
@@EventHorizonModels mate I’m sorry…!😵💫👈….Hope I didn’t offend..✋🤐🤚Go Canada.!..🇨🇦🇬🇧👍
すごく感動しました。アメリカ駐在時にデイトンの航空博物館で紫電改を見たときと同じくらい感動しました。
Just found your channel and also saw your instagram. You are incredibly gifted and I'm learning a lot from your videos. Big fan. I hope you make more content when you have more time. Your work is excellent.
It's a good kit, a favorite of mine. Have aksi built the Hasegawa N1K2 later variant of the Shiden. A little more detailed but both kits are great. Important late war Japanese Naval fighter.
Nice build! Just a word of advice, stabilisers after wings. Alignment is much easier. Keep having fun!
Has the same kit in my collection really enjoy your build excellent !!!😀😀
Awesome! Thank you!
Beautiful built and very meticulous paint job. I personally prefer the hinomarus with the white border in the upper and side surfaces and a little less weathering. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
Awesome job !!!! More videos pleaae
Nice pre-shading tone. The chipping is fabulous!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Fantastic wonderful
Awesome
It’s funny that 30 year old Tamiya kits still hold up against Airfix kits released yesterday.
Awsome!
Incredible workmanship on an old model. The real secret you didn't reveal is the Rising Sun red dots. Did you cut them first then put them onto the model? If so, did you put the tape on a hard surface for easier removal to put onto the aircraft? You earned a new sub for making this video.
Hi, thanks for the comment. Regarding the hinomarus, I used a circle cutter on a piece of acrylic to cut them from Tamiya tape and used them as a template. The cutter i use is from Olfa and I got it on Amazon years ago for around $10. Cheers
You have a pretty good voice. I wish you would talk us through your build. Nevertheless, nice build and 1 new subscriber 👍
Thanks for the compliment Pawel. For future videos I will try and plan it better from the beginning to allow for voice throughout. Time for me is the problem, just not enough of it. Cheers
Gday
⭐🌟🌠🤗👍😊😇🤑nice model fighter plane aircraft. I like this aircraft four blade propeller. Japanese aircraft.
What brand and model tweezers were you using to remove the masking? They look really stout.
Hey there, those are Tamiya HG straight tweezers #74048. A little in the pricey side but a quality tool. Cheers
@@EventHorizonModels Thank You!
