ScaleAton presents Building the Fujimi 1/700 Japanese Navy Aircraft Carrier Akagi Video Support Scale-a-ton! / scaleaton Facebook / scaleatonscalemodeling Follow me on Instagram! / scale.a.ton
Those 1/700 planes on aircraft carriers are always killing me. They are like human faces, no matter how small they are, any imperfections on them are still very visible on a finalized model and painting them properly in this scale is no easy task even for nimble hands. You have nailed them 100 % though.
I wanted to get into modelling and bought a bunch of planes modelled in transparent plastic, so I could leave the cockpits unpainted and have them "see through"... ish. Then I just sold everything.
There is something about WW1 and WW2 ships that are just romantic and stylish. Modern ones still look badass but they feel like some kind of a streamlined soulless machines.
Why stop there let's all remove our car wheels and push the body around on logs its slower but more romantic...... push faster love we are only doing two logs a minute.... we are almost at McDonald's
We the Japanese are very thankful and proud of your incredible job on our ship,flag and zero-fighters with care. Thank you very much far beyond any word.
I know Azur Lane is a interesting anime and I know the game is popular but don't ruin the comment section of this video with your *oh-taco, wife-fu* bullshit. Look I've been watching anime for almost 32 years now but I find the majority of the "anime community" now days to be really sad with how all of you act and talk.
I was building a Fujimi 1/700 Zuikaku over the weekend, my first aircraft carrier kit and the planes legit drove me insane lol, didn't help that the runner was in clear plastic for some god damn reason.
I almost died laughing when I spent 2 whole days trying to get the stickers to work on a 1:400 scale Kitty Hawk, and then noticing that the instructions were on the back.
As a longtime fan of resin water modeling, I was skeptical of his foil method in the beginning. But after seeing it finished, I have to say that's one of the best ocean surface models I've ever seen.
The more videos I'm watching the more I've to laugh about my first steps in modeling: I built a ship model and put it on my window sill :D Okay, that was over 20 years ago ... Amazing model and scenery! The only thing I would have added would be smoke from the large exhaust openings at the side :)
Akagi was from the start too be a Battelcruiser in the Amagi class. But under the buildt she redesigned and buildt to a CV. Ps. What an amazing buildt with so many details and with that ocean, it's just stunning.
Me : "mom can i have akagi aircraft carrier model ?" Mom : "we have akagi aircraft carrier model at home". Aircraft carrier model at home : Azur lane Akagi Figure.
Meanwhile I can’t even paint eyes on my guardsmen. Jesus Christ. Amazing work though. Really impressive. I never would’ve though about using foil to make waves.
thank you for sharing. this is one of the best 1/700 model ship building tutorial i have seen. i really like the additional information about the mixture in percentages of paints thinner and psi used. i hope you will build more 1/700 model ships so that we can learn from you. thank you. merry christmas and a fruitful new year. joe @ singapore
Absolutely spot on, a really nice build my friend. I followed your instructions for the sea in your last U-Boat video, and it turned out really, really nice. Thanks buddy 👍
A brilliant video of an amazing build, I love the work you do and am inspired to build models with more detail after watching your builds. Keep up great work 👍👍👍
I'm really glad you showed working with the photo etched. I have a couple models that came with some and I've never used it before and was wondering how to work with it.
OMG.. What a beautiful Model, She looks amazing and the water is a masterpiece and looks so realistic.I Love all your Videos Buddy.Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
As an addition you can make engine smoke from the side exhaust, grey-dark grey. That'd be an excellent touch for this model. Good job m8. You inspire me everytime with your videos. When I start my job, I can finally fund myself for modelling and will start by watching your videos in mode detail. Thanks!
The detail in this 1/700 build is so surreal I kind of miss some personel and cockpit interior :-) No, honestly, Mr. Scaleaton - This is unreal! Such work and patience with fantastic result. The still shots are just wow too!
Been a scale modeler for 4 years and I didn't attempt to touch a single ship. Because I just know that ships are just way too hard for me to pull it off. I will stick with 35 AFVs and 48 aircrafts, thank you very much :D
