In my humble experience, your foot will randomly help you find those bits when you least expect it, usually when the lights are off and a year later. Particularly the sharpest edge of said newly found bits! 😜

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Haha I'm sure you're right! 😅

@kevinholmes1860 Год назад

I used the Red Fox set for my 1/32 Tamiya P-51. They really look great. I'll definitely use them again on future projects. Love the videos Hank!

@samuelschmitt7068 Год назад

Hey, man! Just wanted to say that I started scale modeling a couple months ago and have found your videos super helpful. Your basics videos and walkthroughs have really helped me be less overwhelmed and know where to start. Thanks for your fine work!

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

oh that's great news - I'm really glad to hear it! Thanks & happy building 👍

@echohunter4199 Год назад

We have a similar problem in gun smithing, especially with AR-15’s. If you’re installing or removing the takedown pin spring and you’re not careful, it’ll zip off into the ether as you mentioned, and god help you if you have a carpeted floor, lol.

@davidm6256 Год назад

I just started a build of a 1/48 F/A 18 and naturally started with the cockpit area, I’m terrible with doing decals that small, with your tips and tricks I can now do a better job in the future, thanks Hank

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

It's tough! That's a very small space 👍

@Ryker06 Год назад

Haha....that great scale model parts and bits repository also known as the Ethereal Plane. This transition to parts unknown is usually accompanied by significant fowl language by previous owner. Good vid...thanks.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Haha yes indeed - a universal adversary for all scale modelers! 😅

@johntreloar8203 Год назад

They do look good, might have to get some, thanks for sharing Hank.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thanks for watching!

Hi Hank, I noticed that you were struggling a bit in placing those parts with tweezers; I have found that taking a regular Crayola crayon is a superior tool for placing tiny parts strategically on a model. The wax in the crayon has just enough stickiness to hold the part and place it exactly where it needs to go. Just a gentle slight twist releases the part. Works like a charm each time. I prefer regular White crayon to make it easier (by contrast) to see the part and exactly where it will be seated. Give it a try and let us know if it works for you. I will be ordering some of those Red Fox instrument panels. Thanks for the great review. Cheers!

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

That's really interesting! I've never heard of that - I'll have to give it a go! Thanks for the tip 👍

@nelsonc6173 Год назад

Wow these acrylic panel sets look awesome! I actually don't mind painting cockpit instrument panels but these 3D sets look incredible! Gonna give them a try! Thanks for the heads up!!

@80GhostDog Год назад

Great video! I made an Mig-21 from Eduard with photo edge included. 1/72 scale. The cockpit was a dream... I still remember...

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Cool!!

@ragingpotato817 Год назад

Very cool

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thanks!

@AuthenticWW2 Год назад

Another great vid Hank. Never disappoints👍🍻

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thank you kindly!!

@piercebobo5754 Год назад

Sounds much easier than using a toothpick and white paint for the individual dials 😂

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Right!? 😅

@homunculous007 Год назад

Thanks for the vid. Check out Quinta Studios as well.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thank you! I do have a video on the Quinta product as well 👍

@AdamMann3D Год назад

Didn't take you long to sell out, Although I get the impression that was your intention from the start.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Woof - that's rough! AMMO sent me some free product to review & share with my subscribers if I liked it; I didn't get paid a dime from them - but thank you for those harsh words 😬

@Johnny-tt8zc Год назад

I have some of the red fox stuff. Hoping to use it on an upcoming build.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Very nice - enjoy!

@renatoferreira598 7 месяцев назад

I'm very curious about how they manage to do this. Is there a special printer?

@leeedsonetwo 7 месяцев назад

Just looked and I cannot believe how expensive they are.

@gregderuiter583 Год назад

Quick question where do you get your small brushes with such a fine point. Everything I find in the model shops are rubbish except for the bigger brush sizes ?

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

I've got a video called "Best Supplies for Beginners" where I talk about all the brushes I use if you'd like to check it out! 👍

@muhdfauwazel-emin2132 Год назад

no aircraft instrument for Ju Junker 88?

@lanesteele240 Год назад

1:29. All my nail files are untrustworthy😮

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Haha oh no!

@fpv-droneracing3077 Год назад

Nice video👍. Just started a Build Tamiya 61063 also BF109. Why are the prices so different between almost 2 identical Models.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Nice! That's a great kit as well - the Bf-109 you're building is an E-4/7 variant, and Tamiya originally released it in 1998. The one that I'm working on here is the G-6 variant, which Tamiya released in 2017. The G-6 has options for both open & closed engine cowlings, as well as choices for positioning the flaps up or down. Quite a few more options with the G model, but they're both fantastic kits. I've built a few of the E-4s & it's one of my favorites. Enjoy!

@fpv-droneracing3077 Год назад

Ok. Well now i know! That makes sense. Thank You. It was on your starter kit list😉. Just starting the Hobby. In my youth (Boots were from wood and men from steal 😂) Build al lot of airplanes. Your Channel inspired me to start the hobby again. A lot has changed in 45 years 😅

@robertjensen1438 Год назад

Just a comment for the algorithm

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thank you!

@c123bthunderpig Год назад

These definitely look like a go - checked out your links and you can really see how these pop out a cockpit in the 1/32 Mig 21 due to the Russian unusual cockpit colors. I'm desperately looking for a crew members for 72, 48 , 24 and 32CD scales do ya know of a company like these guys who fit the bill.? Enjoying the new format, if that B-17 on your wall is missing one day, I'm your first suspect :-)

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Haha I'll keep an eye out for it to go missing! As for crew figures, I'd give ultracast a look - I've had a lot of success with their 1/48 scale options 👍

@c123bthunderpig Год назад

@@SpruesNBrewsHank, Thanks for the reference on Ultrafast - they are truly awesome. Getting back into the modeling game after years, I'm slowly climbing back up the learning curve, your advice and videos have accelerated the new world. Thanks again. Now I need to adjust my " brew" budget :-) but is well worth it.

@crazylocha2515 Год назад

Carpet monster 1 - Hank 0ish (good excuse for an adult beverage, so maybe a tie? LoL) These Red Fox detail sets can really up the cockpit game and are coming out for so many kits now. Really good match for an Eduard PE upgrade.

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Haha you're correct! And they're definitely a great little product - I'm glad I got a chance to test them out!

@georgewelch2366 Год назад

Great video Hank. Do you find you have enough time to place the "decals" using super glue vs one that is a little less aggressive?

@SpruesNBrews Год назад

Thanks! I did have enough time to manipulate the panels before the glue set. I wasn't sure if I would, but the Krazy Glue I used got the job done just fine 👍
