Simple technique for your model's dashboard - how to create awesome scale model instrument panels 

The paint detail is phenomenal, you should be very proud of your work.

That looks great bro', you got excellent results... Extreme detailing without the extreme work I love it...

Great tutorial, Metodi. Personally, I find it more realistic and closer to the real instrument panels you see in old photos.

Wow!! Five stars for the final result, great technique friend!!

Greetings from Australia, that was a excellent tutorial and very simple to follow, thanks for sharing, I hope you are keeping safe and well, very best regards to you and your family.

Love these videos, short and to the point but well explained! For me, I prefer to leave the color decal in place, adding a subtle coat of paint to the instrument panel to vary the color 👍

*The result of the dashboard is pretty good, thanks for this method.*

Looks great! If you wanted to take it a step further, I've seen people drop a bit of clear resin mix into each instrument.

Well done. Looks really good!

I love the finish and techniques but wow I couldn’t trust myself enough to do this 😅

That looks amazing awesome work my friend good video too big thumbs up 👍 top quality

Awesome, you are so good at model building!

That does look more realistic to me , I agree that alot of the prepaited parts are not always desirable, in many cases the paint on these pre painted parts is bumpy and distorted!

Another nice Video about the ICM Invader. Please don't forget to tell me where you have your references from. Thank you. Best regards, Alexander

Oh my, I thought that was the panel coming up with the tweezers 😜 Looks great. Thanks for showing us 😉

That looks awesome. I never really thought about the aging gauges. Your technique perfectly replicates the look. I love those 3D gauges but you don’t need them. Modeling is getting like RC, you have to invest so much money it becomes less fun.

What paint/brand did you use for the transparent amber on the dials? It looks great, and I want to try that effect on some scale homemade computer terminals.

Very useful tutorial. Thank you for sharing

Impressive. So cool! Have you ever tried using pre-made random instrument panel decals? I have yet to do so. Just wondering if anyone has done so?

some good tricks

I agree completely. 3d is awesome... but it is another step from traditional model making. Is it a step too far? I dont know. I had the same concern when photo-etch came out and now I use it semi-often.

Thanks Metodi for another great video!

Just great! It's remarkably.

That looks really great ! As you I don’t like the look of P-E instrument panels. But how would you do your technic with no acetate sheet and only decals ?

Excellent results.

Outstanding video , Thank you for sharing !!!!

I picked up a few things and I've done several models.

This one is quite useful. I'll put it in my arsenal. A quick question: do you use some kind of magnifying glasses/instruments when dealing with small objects?

Excellent video!

I'm going to do it as it looks great. How did you think of this great idea?

Wow! You are a master!!

Thank you so much for the tutorial !

Greetings from Brazil! I didn’t understand in what solution do you dip the PE to get loose the paint… “stone”?

WOW .... NICE Tip!!!! I Really enjoy the amber and white background on the dial numbers and gauges! THAT, really gives it a older, used, combat-driven use of this plane!! Does this work for 1/72 scale?? I do have several 48 scale WW2 planes that I Would LOVE to use this technique! AND, I also have 'Eduards' PE as well, but I have MANY 72 scale A/C!

What was the liquid you used to remove the colour from the PE? I thought you said stone works grey.

Wow!

Crackin video mate 😉👌

Just a comment for the algorithm.

Anyone know where I can get 1:18/1/:24 dash panel like this?

🤠👍🇨🇦

Sorry, don't agree with you concerning 3d Decals. Using them save a lot of time despite of the price and they look much better than PE. Thank you for the video.
