Great vid! I love it when the trench coats start commenting, it makes me chuckle, some are right corkers and others are just WTF? To be honest I really liked what you did….and the weathering was spot on for what you were trying to show, an abandoned aircraft waiting for a rebuild. I see some builds on FB that I think are a bit naff but I also see somethings that have been done in those same builds that really catch my eye. I’m not going to tell some one their build is shite….doesn’t help anyone and would make me look like an arse. I enjoy the music in the background…..some pick some odd tunes and in that case I just mute the sound. Keep modelling Sully. Make what you enjoy and show the world your talent!
Thanks dude! Yes I do find them entertaining! Sometimes I do like to wind them up further. As you know I feel the same on places like FB etc I find it more effort to knock someone else's work and if are at least make it constructive and give pointers! Thanks for the support my friend !
@@SullysScaleModels LOL! All good, I really like your take on finishes, it’s quite refreshing! I don’t try to knock anyone as I build so few kits due to work life and kids that anything I say would be inappropriate. I’ve had people knock some of my builds (I built one of the old white box Airfix 1/72nd Albatross DVa kits with a robot in the seat….), but I’m not worried, I built it for my own fun and I’m still happy with it, I usually thank them for taking the time to look! Had a thought….why not put a pair of ladies knickers on the pilots seat in that gannet build….should get some comments!
I thought your Chippie was great. I remember the hissy fits by some people on the Airfix FB and all it did was make themselves look stupid.
Keep doing what you do Sully! 🙂
@@AndyK22 thanks dude yes FB was where the main issues were it was also where the abortive comment came from lol
First of all, marvellous build of the chippie. Absolutely love the weathering. Regarding the other subject, everyone is an individual & any rendition of a built model, is completed from the view of the builder, references & interpretation by that individual, at whatever skill level they are at. As long as you, are happy with the outcome & any feedback is constructive as mentioned by your goodself. Keep on building & happy modelling 😊 👍👏
Hi Sully, met you at the model show last week. Had my daughter with me, she was happy that you had a little chat with her. We love watching your videos and appreciate the time and effort that goes into them. I love building myself and with the limited time I have it can take me a month to do a model. Keep up the good work. 👍
Yes I remember you guys! Yes was nice meeting you both, hope you guys enjoyed the show!? Thanks for the kind comment, I'm quite lucky I get a lot of time at the bench
Fantastic sully keep it up
Love the story you told. I've seen abandoned aircraft on fields and they looked even worse off!
Cool weathering effects.
Are you serious 😩 are there small minded people out there who criticize a man for making a model kit 😩 I think they need to grow up and get a life sad sad people 🤦🏻♂️ on a good note I think you do a brilliant job 👍👏👏👏
I have been watching you work for a long time now i think you do some fantastic work , i do think there are some really really sad people out there that have to comment like that, you keep on doing that you do and the background music is fine for me, and as always your end work is fantastic
Cheers thanks dude! Ye must be a salad life for some of these people! I am lucky I don't get too many of these but a few of my mates get a lot and a lot worse than what was in this video. I think when they send them in our group chat I will keep them for another video maybe lol
Nice one Sully, it's a great build, and realistic. There is a Vampire at New Romney museum that is outside, neglected and reminiscent of your build so Thankyou. I loved your Chippy!
Nice video! Tam from kits & bits sent me over! I’ve just subbed to your channel 😊🐌✌️
I've been modeling since early 70's. I often kick myself as many silly mistakes thai can recall doing are now 'Weathering techniques years on I'm still an OTB builders little bit of weathering chipping g etc but that's about it but it gives me the desired result. I do love it when someone builds their first kit and is braver than me and posts a pic, especially the younger new comers to what has to be one of, if not the best hobby. I will always give a like. It's also good when someone wants to go to the next level a d asked for advice and some come back with subtle constructive replies, and tips. That's the thing being Constructive and helpful, Not nitpicking off putting mockery. No matter how good a modeller is that is probably how they were at the start. All they do is belittle themselves which is very sad in itself. Glad you posted this, and I think the Chipmunk looks gret
Absolutely love this build! We have similar people in the car Modeling community also. Anything other than stock is a sacrilege to them.
Lol ye these sorts of people are every were and the ones who ruin it for everyone else and say the hobby is dying because they have scared everyone away with their negativity! They see some of the comments and think why don’t wanna be part of this
Hi.
I had a Chipmunk type rating back in the day, but that's irrelevant, I think most people who say that sort of thing are just showing off (see my next paragraph! 😎). I think most of the negative comments came from people didn't realise this was an abandoned aeroplane, but that's me trying to be generous. If I was being even more generous, I'd say they were "misguided".
I also flew Tornados, the F3, and I flew them in the Gulf. No, they didn't get that dusty inside, but who cares, it's your model. And they are called "jet pipes", we never, ever called them exhausts, or exhaust pipes. Or the big tanks "Hindenburgers" whilst I'm at it, but then that's "modellers" for you.
I also have a CZcams channel, and I've had some similar comments too; I also find them hilarious! Especially the flouncing off shouting they're inscribing. I think they're the funniest! If they are plain rude though, I just block them!
Lastly, I am a big fan of derelict models and I've built loads in my time. I really liked your model, I thought it was great!
Because of this video you have a new subcriber also the chipmunk looks awesome
Thanks mate! As I read that I thought you were going to say ‘Because of this video you have lost a subscriber!’lol but thank you! As I'm sure you can tell this isn't a normal video so I do hope you enjoy the other ‘Normal’ videos 😁
Hey there Sully what a great video - I got a list comments lately from my panther build from a viewer- I thought I was back at school 😂😂😂😂😂, everyone has a choice - don’t like it turn off, cheers Liam
It's ridiculous isn't it! Some people need to sort their lives out 😄
@@SullysScaleModels absolutely buddy, I’ve been lucky so far, keep them coming. Do you attend Telford?
@@ljscalemodels526 I shamefully have never been but I should be going this year as a visitor l! Iv tyres to get in as a displayed but I need to be in a group or SIG which isn't really going to help me get the brand out! The one I did last weekend is the only one so far that has let me display as the channel
there is this really great thing we do as creators, where we build whatever models we want, and put out whatever videos we want cos its our channel. If you want to give us constructive feedback, please do, it helps us grow the channel, but if your'e just gunna tell us how shite something is, make sure you provide photos of the model you made that was better, or i'm just gunna tell you to shut your pie hole. If you dont like our channels, cool, unsub, but its not an airport, you don't need to announce your departure, we literally dont care.
To those people who always encourage and get behind us creators: YOU ROCK. YOU are the people we make the videos for, so please don't stop being awesome
Nice one Sullly, great to see something different that's weathered to a high standard.
I just stumbled upon your channel. I work so hard. People don't appreciate me. Waaah.
The point wasnt about been appreciated ! I know theres people that dont like my work. The point was theres no need to be nasty to people because they dont like what they have done with no ‘constructive’ criticism
Nice work as always Sully. Do another plane like that to annoy them even more. You fine these people are arm chair modellers who still get gluey finger prints on the canopy 😂
Great video! Totally agree, it takes a lot of time to build, film, and edit a video while also having a full-time job, and that's with a small channel like mine. I also don't feed the trolls, comments I get like that I usually just answer with. Thank you for your feedback. Sometimes, that makes them angrier though, lol. In the end, I build to please no one but myself. Keep up the great work here. Will be looking forward to your future projects.
Nice to see a subject matter that's not shown in a pristine state.. Males one wonder if all those that critised that Chipmunk actually know how long it took to make it look that neglected...
I think with this model if the fact it's the much loved chippy! If I had done this on less liked aircraft I don't think anyone who of taken any notice! But the one guy who complained about ‘why people these days have to weather everything’ the hose on to say he likes his models accurate basically contradicts himself when weathering a model dose make it accurate lol working aircraft don't have time to be spit polished! What a silly sausage !
Hi Sully. Just subscribed and watched this vid. Absolutely love the representation of the abandoned chipmunk. Like it or not this is oft what happens to old planes. It’s a fact. There is a chap who fairly recently did a rendition of a De Havilland Vampire I believe South Africa airforce. I couldn’t find the link. But it was the same theme and the workmanship was superb. I believe as modellers and to a degree keepers of history we should show the subjects in all stages of their lives. Great work and I look forward to more!
Great job on the derelict Chipmunk. Is there a video series on the build? ( Didn’t see one in your video list.) I agree with your take on the unhelpful comments - it must suck to be them.
Thanks mate!! Unfortunately no I did this build before I moved house and it was in that period of when was it going to be and should I carry on building and I didn't realise I neglected to film a lot of the building part and was left with what's in the video and wasn't really snug to make a video from so this one happened instead! Sorry about that
I jave just eatched my first Sullys video, thoroughly enjoyed it and i cannot agree with you more, i am a returning modeller and am very interested in weathering and i am building the chipmunk. I thought you did a fantastic job. Now going to binge watch your vids. Keep it up
Thanks mate! Well for weathering you come to the right place! You wont find a clean model here!!
There was a guy complaining on scalemates that the box art on one of the new 1/16 251s has left handed german soldiers and they were trained to be right handed.
Lol I bet he didn't sleep that night!
Hi Sully, I've just come across your videos today and I'd firstly just like to say, I think your modelling skills are absolutely out of this world! I'm a huge fan of anything abandoned, apocalyptic etc etc. Your channel is exactly up my street. 😁
Secondly, I completely agree with all of the above statements you've made. I've noticed alot of scenes these days are pretty toxic in any aspect. I'm new to getting into modelling but always been quite crafty, so I'm quite looking forward to getting stuck in. I have noticed a few comments similar to yours mentioned elsewhere and I think the hobby is being blown way out of context. It's modelling, there is no rules.
Lastly to say, I'm massively excited about any incoming videos you'll have in the future and I'll definitely be staying tuned in. You're officially my favourite modeller!
Have a great day!
Lol thanks dude! Such kind words! I have a few videos of abandoned subjects, I have one of some abandoned railway coaches, Sea King thought that was taken over by chickens! And the latest the Fairy Gannet which I think is my best to date, if I do say so myself!! I'm also glad that you have seen through the gatekeeper's BS and haven't been scared away lol you said it as it is your model your rules! Thanks for the sub need any help drop use a massage!
@@SullysScaleModels I've seen most of your videos and I'm absolutely blown away, but there isn't many people brave enough to do as you are. This is something I'd do to get the most out of a model. It's totally fine if you want a clean and presentable replica, but I find it some what boring and want to push my skills as far as I can, like you have. The Fairey Gannet was absolutely something else! I'm thinking of doing something on one of my kits I don't care too much about, more to practice with effects etc.
I massively appreciate it that, thank you!
@@PANDAC90 thanks dude! Its always good to have a practice model or two to try stuff out or teeks something your nor sure on before committing to it on final model
Loved the model , new subscriber!! Keep up the good work, always one im afraid
people are assholes anymore! that looks like an amazing model! People are jealous thats why people hate. I Build boneyard airplanes. cant wait to show the haters! LOL
Some people do love to exercise their incredulity online. I'd advise to not feed the wankers by acknowledging them. It only serves to massage their bitterly shattered egos.
Your model, your choices. Your video, your choices. Anyone complaining about that is possessed of their own problem. Let them carry it on their own, because it's probably a well nailed chip on their shoulder.
All the best.
People are upset because they cannot do it themselves. They prefer the museum versions instead of what they actually looked like, whether in use or derilict or worn out. Ignore them.
Damn, the ol' "Chipmunk"... brings back memories of RAF Turnhouse with the Air Cadets back in the 80's, that and Cosford- Summer Camp, got me just over 2Hrs in my log-book with this little beauty... ahh, the memories 😶🌫
Now, if only they'd release a DeHavilland, DH110 Sea-Vixen, my teen memories of Cosford would be complete, now my head's definitely in the clouds, lol.
I think they did do a sea vixen
@@SullysScaleModels Awesome, I'll have a search, see if there's one left out there somewhere, fingers-crossed...lol
@@Boofy_Gastard i tried and failed lol
@@SullysScaleModels The Airfix is on E-bay starting at £100, and the Trumpeter one is still available on Amazon for £67...
I'm tempted by the Trumpeter, but I was hoping to get a cheap air-brush set as well, so I can get into it, having only ever done brush-work many, many years ago, lol.
Argh, I'm in a right ol' fix now, this could take some time...lol.
Hello...Well you got a subscription from me....ain't you lucky😂
Been there with the content and yes, it does burn you out. So many experts.... We had one (he writes books you know) who insisted we re paint one of our aircraft because it didn't fit his spec. Oddly when I suggested that if he funded the project as well as supplying a stand in for the display season...and it would look the same because THAT WAS HOW SHE RETIRED....oddly he didn't reply.
Yep...I hated it right until I got the birds nest comment then....brilliant. I can learn a lot from that build and anyone who has been around aircraft for any time will have seen hangar Queens leaking their life blood. BDR hulks full of holes...many patched, some speed taped, canopies stitched and glued, sometimes outside so they go green, then fade. Some fire dumps are chock full and it's heart rending but true. Just look outside the Army flying mausoleum for some truly abandoned legends. I know of at least 1 wessex with nest and eggs...it was 87 so perhaps the EU banned the practice🙄
Speed tape on fabric? Never seen it but if you have, cool. We patched over some metal holes with doped fabric or speed tape so happy days.
Inside of cabs....really depends on the environment. In active service leaks would often get .mopped up as a tell tale, is it manageable? Is it grabbing dirt and hiding a crack or doing more damage? Cockpits, can be pig sties if you live, eat, fart, sweat in them so yea, they could be a mess. We were digging sand out of ours for years after.
Overall weathering, can sometimes be good to remember that we did have pride in the aircraft so we did try and cleaning is actually part of servicing but get it right and😎. One day I might.
I think a lot of keyboard warriors have only ever seen cabs at airshows...pristine, painted for the circuit...
Great stuff. I have been involved in the ground up restoration of one chippy and re assembly of another, and have that kit sitting here for round 2.... lots of ideas for improvements from your build.
I will comment if I have actual experience that might help but usually via PM, no need to be defensive or crave an audience then eh? Just don't make the Lynx rotorhead fully articulated with floppy blades or we will find you.🤬😁
Finally if you are still awake. Exhaust....Jet pipe...perhaps the "expert" has not flown and looked at temp gauges reading JPT × 100 deg or EGT or TGT etc. Jet pipe temp, Exhaust gas temp, turbine gas temp, it all exists and is valid.
Just try telling someone you pulled 105% torque and hear the KIAs screech...you cannot have 105% of anything.
Engineers say otherwise and it just means you have exceeded max by 5% and may have some explanation to do. Bill like 11 on an amplifier except it really does mean things needed that bit of reserve.
Anyway nice job. Get it, love it, some great techniques, keep it coming👍
Cheers thanks dude! Theres always someone that recons they know best lol
Sorry for the essay, bloody long day greenkeeping (long story so I will spare you). Half the challenge with modelling is "was it" and "how do I"? And bloody remembering the last time you...oh never mind😂. I am exe AAC but have been lucky to expand outside of just army aviation on and off. Flew quite a lot, not a pilot, not an eng but could hold my own. JAFO or talking ballast sums it up😂 be lucky
I'm not a weathering type of model maker but admire people who can do it as well as you can. I find the problems with comment replies on CZcams, as both creator and watcher, its easy for comments to be missed. CZcams aren't that hot on notifications. It's very easy not to see replies. Let's see if you notice this one :) I know I'm commenting 7 months after production but CZcams should tell you.
Lol know I'm always hot on my notifications😁 plus i dont get that much in the way of interactions to loss any lol some times its hard to reply to some because either a dumb comment or just not sure what someone is getting at so it at least gets a thumbs up lol
@@SullysScaleModels So you got the notification? As a subscriber I didn't get a notification that you replied, I had to have a look at the video again to see if you did. perhaps it why people don't always respond to your answers?
@@RichardsModellingAdventures ye its an old issues with youtube theres times were channels i regularly watch and i dont get the notification for and i know i have it on for that channel. I think its very rear for me to miss a comments notification, its more iv seen it and forgot to reply
@@SullysScaleModels I guess we have to work with what we have. The problem for me is the viewers don't get notified when I reply to them. Again, I had to look for your reply. Anyways keep up the great content :)
Good video. I am sometimes surprised by the amount of weathering some modelers choose to apply to their subjects, but I also think that the model is an expression of the modelers ingenuity, creativity and artistic skill.
To the chap who suggested that combat aircraft are 'cleaned to a high standard after every mission'? Well, possibly in a peacetime environment, but in a war zone that aircraft may sortie 2, 3 or more times every day for days at a time. Keeping the aircraft serviceable for the next strike is all that matters. If something needs to be cleaned in order to work then it gets cleaned, otherwise not so much.
It is difficult sometimes to know when to stop! I sometimes have gone a little overboarded and I may have done with this one but u felt it portrayed an airframe that's been outside a long time and I tried to copy what I have seen in real life. It's not everyone's thing and that's fine! Like I said in the video I don't really like clean aircraft!! Sometimes feels unfinished but that's me I don't go ragging on someone fore it lol
And ye proper working aircraft or vehicles don't get much time to be cleaned, but clearly that guy didn't seam to get that lol
I cannot believe people didn't get what you were trying to achieve with the chipmunk?!!! There is another side to aviation that can be found on most large airfields & that involves 'wrecks & relics'. A lot of museums have aircraft & parts laying around, fading & chipping with wildlife using it as a home.
Apparently in the model word to some that doesn't happen lol
Morning sully.
Content creating is hard man ! The editing side of it takes like FOR EVER ! and people who don't do videos have absolutely no idea what it takes. And... it's hard not to bite back when some dick posts their opinion like it's the only opinion in the world but we try and remain professional and look away, but what they fail to realise is we're not professional, we haven't got the BBC behind us, a post production team, sound engineers, camera crew, etc. It takes me roughly 8 hours to edit a 30 minute video, HOPING I've done a right enough job but to then get slagged off by a non-creator 😡😡😡😡
I digress. Great looking chip, got the feeling I know exactly what the sea king is going to look like, keep doing what you do, great builds, great easy to view Content, sound bloke.
The non creators are the worst! Iv been luck so far really but my mates have had some right shitty comments on theres! And ye they fail to relies that most of us youtubers aren't professional editors! I dunno how long it really takes me I do it in drips and stabs! I film small sets that I think I M going to want then trim them and get trimmed again when narrating. But you do yours as you go witch is good course you don't have to remember what you doing in edit lol but the same as modelling all do different things and why for the best part people come back! I do instead on doing a video on being a modeling youtuber just for a fun video.
I don't think you do with the Sea King lol
Absolutely brilliant build rivet counters one off the reason I don't do videos can't wait for the gannet
What you have to do is realise how sad they must be to be that way! Luckily there fewer that the people that support me. I do also find them in ways very entertaining and sometimes wind up lol thanks mate I'm hopping the Sea King and Gannet will wind a few up😁
Yea I got a kit to send ya that would look great done how you did the chipmunk that would ruffle some feathers
@@hobbytime2098 ye ?! Drope me a email or DM
Love it personally I think just put it down to jealousy as these commentators are obviously not as talented as yourself 👍👍👍
Think that's just Airfix isn't it? I have this in the cupboard to build at some point. Just filled out your survey, hope it helps.
It's the purists they don't like things look dirty accurate lol
@@SullysScaleModels i think it looks really good. Can almost smell the oil haha.
Watched your video, liked it a lot, i build wht i like how i like, my colours are all over the place (colour blind), i don't care, i prefer models to look weather beaten, and abandoned
Empty vessels make the most noise don't they! Personally, I find intro's irritating, so I skip forward. No drama. You want to have a sponsor section? Guess what, that get's skipped as well. My preference, I don't need to complain about it.
One problem I have is the word 'hate'. You dramatize things like many others on here (Harry Houdinie etc). The word hate is a powerful and destructive word. When I see the posts that are claimed as hate I laugh. It's just 'dislike'. Grow up get a pair.......(That is not hate)
I thought he was a magician? If you are a creator on youtube no mater what you content is you need to get people to watch you video and ‘why did this Chipmunk her so much dislike’! Isn’t really gona get people in no is it! Clearly it works because you watched the video,
Which i thank you for! It was just abit of a fun video and that one comment is the reason for the video because it was the funniest comment i have ever had! And wanted to make a bit of a fun video for my self on some of the daft comments youtubers get
