I believe any model, no matter the scale, or category, can benefit from spark plug wires. If the hood is opened, or removed, and the engine is revealed, seeing the plug wires adds so much more realism to the model.
Great video as always! I have few question on the black wash you used to make the engine dirty: - How much time you waited before removing the exceeding black wash? - To remove the unwanted wash did you used a thinner? - Did you use an enamel black wash over acrylic paint? - What's the name of the tool you used for remove the exceeding black wash? Thanks in advance for any help!
Thanks for your comments. The engine is lacquer-based and acrylic-based. The black paint for the dirty expression is enamel-based. TAMIYA Item No:80001 The solvent to wipe off is TAMIYA Item No:80040 I learn this kind of work by watching AFV works. I apologize for my poor explanation.
@@12percent_on_the_desk Thank you for your quick answer! I have the identical colours and setup as yours, so everything should be fine. I'm just worried about how much time I have to wait to use the solvent to wipe off the black paint, I think I have to do some tests. Thanks again, you are super talented and also very kind!
Thank you for your comment. You are correct, the bolts are aftermarket. They are made of resin. They are not cheap and are only used on the visible parts.
Thanks for your comment! The netting I use is brass netting. 1/ Drill a hole in a wooden board the same size as the diameter of the funnel. 2/ Cut a small piece of brass netting and place it over the hole. 3/ Push in the rounded tip. I remember using a pen cap here. Various shapes can be made by adjusting the force with which you push in. 4/Cut and glue carefully. Glue as little as possible so it will not be noticeable.
Thank you for your comment. The injection follows the instructions in the kit's assembly manual. However, the shape seems to be different, so I modified it drastically.
Thank you for your comment. The clear is made of lacquer. 1_paint white 2_Apply the decals 3_Apply the first coat of clear Keep a large distance between the parts and the hand piece. This is to avoid melting the decals. 4_Apply the second coat of clear. Apply a generous amount. 5_After applying 4 coats, polish it. I'm sorry for my poor explanation.
Thank you for your comment. It's the color of magnesium, right? Add khaki green to yellow to make it a little duller. I add a little bit of silver to it as I go along to get the color I like.
Extremely interested in the motorcycle riders channel. Little to no information on Japanese motorcycle culture unlike Japanese car culture which has become extremely pop culture thast few years.
Japanese motorcycle culture? Hmm, I hear that air-cooled bikes from the 80s and 90s are popular among young people. I hear they are sold at high prices. And 2-strokes? Is this a channel you can recommend? I don't know because I don't know much about it either. Sorry.
