Thank you, Al! This is the first time I have ever built one of their kits. They don’t have many planes though. They mostly make 1/72 armor (which is right up your alley!) and small ships. Not sure if Andy’s HHQ ships over there. He has a lot of Flyhawk kits. andyshhq.com/collections/flyhawk
Turned out beautiful. I do have a question though . How do you keep the tape from pulling off the paint. I’ve had zero luck with Vallejo paint not being pulled up with the tape
Thank you! Use a good primer, either rattle can or Badger Stynlrez. Stynlrez is the best acrylic primer hands-down. It’s also bottled as Mig One Shot primer and UMP bottles it for their primer as well. I’ve never had an issue with Vallejo paint lifting when I use this primer! Never put water-based acrylic paint on bare plastic. Always use a primer. Take care! Drew
This is a great little kit. Great build Drew . The only thing I m o this kit lacks is a flight crew. I used the crew from the Airfix Helldiver to remedy this shot coming on my build. As for the tiny delicate pieces yes they are using a good quality spree cutter is a must along with a sharp # .11 blade
Oh @Drew'sModels there's this video game you might like it's called Sky on fire:1940 it's about the battle of Britain and it has different types of short missions you can do, and also has like a Short Mission called Combat Above Dover is were you can choose your own plane and how swaudmates you want and the start altitude and the difficulty (0-100) but it usually puts you at 40 for a start but you can change it. It was a little video game suggestion for you.
@@DrewsModelsas with most countries it depends where you are. Here in Wellington, it’s generally pretty mild, the winter temp rarely falls below 5 degrees C, further south it’s likely to be 1-3 degrees C. Of course it drops below freezing in the high country of both islands. Rain? Oh yes, it’s quite a wet place, and Wellington has a well-earned reputation for being very windy! Take care out there.
