Because of you I starter painting my models by brush. I'm keeping rewatching your videos to learn how tò paint by brush and God you are very very very good at It.
Excellent video, thank you so much! Was thinking about buying this kit. As someone relatively new to the hobby, with two finished models and no airbrush, this video filled me with a lot of confidence.
Tamiya acrylics are high quality paints, but probably better for airbrushing. They are alcohol based, and dry fast. Honestly, I haven't tried yet to paint a whole kit with Tamiya acrylics, only some smaller parts, but it was fine. If you give it a go I would add a drop or two of X-20A Thinner, to have better flow and prolonged drying time. Or maybe even a paint retarder, I have in plan to test it. Anyway, Vallejo Model Color and Revell Aqua are great paints for brush painting, they are water based. Make sure you apply a primer before painting, it helps a lot with paint adhesion. Or at least wash the model in soapy water before painting, to get rid of grease from it's surface.
I have the exact same issue with that missing afterburner part, thought was a single case, also I cannot understanding why did they separate fuselage into to two pieces, requires even more time on building and sanding
You don't have to, but it's good to do so. A gloss coat will seal your paint, and make the surface smooth, so the decals will adhere better to it, and your wash will flow in the panel lines better as well.
@@brushpaintedmodels7086 yeah, you have great skills and tools ( I don't even know hoe to use primer or that stuff for the lines or decalfix). I will make a video if I complete it
оставляю послание новичкам - у этой модели (весь) стабилизатор клеится хз как на глаз, так как нету направляющих, тупо люфтит место склеивания, лучше купить миг 15 или от других производителей
Huh, the casting issu is weird, as a Zvezda main that made in total 79 zvezda models ranging from sizes years and eras ( as in old sets and sets about old and new tech ) this casting problems is…… weird, usually there are some priblems with casting but to the outside that you have to cut iff, on de other hand there is a problem with wings nor fitting onto older one wing designs where the underside of the wings is a separate part, and sometimes there’s like 3/4 mm and so….. putty
