That's an amazing job and stunning result! I've got that kit in my stash but mine won't look as half as cool as yours, for sure. Can I ask you what airbrush and clear coat are you using in this video? Many thanks!!
@TheKen22534469 this is not in production anymore. You need to find on ebay or market place to someone that wants to sell it...but it's going to be expensive
How much sandpaper do you use to sand before using the primer? What kind of brush is that you use at minute 4:20? I've seen it in tutorials but I don't know where to find it. thanks
The sand paper I use before primer is always 3000 from tamiya, it gives a smooth surface and the pencil wad the tiniest from the hobby shop but you can find them with revell
The paint work is beautiful and it's a great build. So just a heads up, those 2 cylinder things on the back wall are the electric fuel pumps which should feed fuel from the storage tanks on both sides of the cockpit to the throttle bodies. Those rectangles with vents standing up on each side of the engine are oil coolers that run from the sump in the oil pan to an oil storage tank in the front of the car. The braided line you have going from the left oil cooler to the fuel pump should go down to the deck plate under the oil cooler, and you should have a line from the fuel pumps running to the throttle bodies. It took a while for me to figure out what those were on the back wall.
@@MonacoMiniatures Hopefully it didn't come off as rude, rivet counter, or know it all. I just meant it as helpful info as I had a heck of a time figuring out what the fuel pumps were. I ended up joining a 1:1 GT 40 forum site to ask those guys.
@@JHartModelworks not rude at all because everyone is entitled to his own opinion. If it were a full scale build, he would setup the way he wants; it's his baby. Furthermore, it's scale modeling so artistic licence is allowed unless the goal is exact placement, setup of components, colors, even working mechanisms if needed. There are a wide variety of plumbing/wiring setups that many car owners tried out, and went with what they could at the time. He can have things wherever he wants, it still looks like a great build and should be given props for sharing his passion and it certainly inspires many to do the same. We all love clean, sharp builds.
Hey man, just finished watching your video now. I was so happy to see that you showed my sticker in the beginning, I completely forgot that I added it in the box haha. Really nice surprise! Your video was really relaxing to watch! As for the build, speechless, you really did a great job, from the paint work to the detailed engine to all the dots on the seats 😅 keep it up!!
