You've given me inspiration to go old-school and hand paint my own model - this one, specifically. I have an airbrush, but for various reasons this option is not available to me. Your finished model is superb, and your presentation, editing, production values are terrific. Well done.

@julianmhall Год назад

Ref alignment of cockpit decals. Assuming the print alignment is the same as the raised cockpit decal, if the diagonal corner instruments are done first, everything else should be right.

@ModelMinutes Год назад

good point

@stuff31 Год назад

I know including perishables in your kits is probably a bad idea in the long term, but I would quite like to see Airfix bundle KitKats with their KitKits more. I wonder if it might help to give the models a chocolatey scent :)

@J.A.Hansen 3 года назад

Awesome🔝Well every modell has a good side and a bad side.But....since i started working with superglue,everything is fine😁 Different glues for different details. Normaly i build only ships but i also love Aircrafts.But i make my own plan after i look at the instrution. However many ways leads to Rom. To me the joy of the modell Hobby is to find a solution whenever there is a problem and to fix it.Anyway when it comes to Aircrafts,Tamija and Hasegawa are my favorite company.As much as i love Airfix or Revell... When it comes to bigger scale these are my favorite companys,plus Trumpeter. I dearly miss Matchbox and Monogramm... However.Great video,building and skills 🛩👌Top

@ModelMinutes 3 года назад

@mbabist01 3 года назад

I think a good idea would be to add an Airfix crewmember to a Tamiya model (Tamiya figures are crummy).

Model Minutes Oh ok. I picked up this kit as my first one getting back into building in over a decade.

@julianmhall Год назад

Matt, I watched your video 'Airfix Hawker Typhoon Ib | 1/72 Scale Plastic Model Kit' yesterday. Curious that had more detail with the open panels rearming the guns than this larger scale.

@ModelMinutes Год назад

yes, it is interesting seeing as the Typhoon was tooled back in 2013 and this Spitfire in 2019 (and the typhoon is smaller to boot). I wonder if there were different teams working on these kits and thus decided what was important to include or omit

@julianmhall Год назад

@@ModelMinutes Perhaps feedback related.. some modellers more interested in more kits than less kits more detailed? Also tooling the detail was probably expensive. Pity as it looked fabulous.

@ModelMinutes Год назад

@@julianmhall yeah, it probably comes down to cost and complexity in the end

@jackskelton1294 3 года назад

What general purpose glue do you use for the windows and clear bits of plastic?

@ModelMinutes 3 года назад

my normal go-to ie either UHU all purpose clear glue, or PVA

@jackskelton1294 3 года назад

@@ModelMinutes Ok thanks, but would super glue work as well or not

@ModelMinutes 3 года назад

@@jackskelton1294 I think that could run the risk of fogging the plastic

@jackskelton1294 3 года назад

Ok thanks

@seantaplin581 2 года назад

I, personally, use mod podge as I find it better than PVA. I find PVA sometimes leaves weird white spots, on the canopy.

@shaunwilliams3533 4 года назад

A quick question: If the paint applied to the model is naturally a glossy-shiny color, does this mean one must still apply the gloss varnish to the model, even though the paint already is gloss? I assume its no longer necessary, as the model is already glossy from the application of the paint. Thanks in advance. (Also sorry if my question is badly worded.)

@ModelMinutes 4 года назад

Duganian united tribes and kingdoms you are correct. There is no point applying a further gloss varnish if you already used a gloss paint

@shaunwilliams3533 4 года назад

@@ModelMinutes Thank you very much! Sorry if my question was a little too obvious, but I just needed to verify with someone with a little bit more experience.

Just watching your pilot build. To do him properly, drill up his backside then stick him to a wire paperclip and insert the paperclip into a pin vice. This will give you a hold good enough to paint him properly!

@ModelMinutes 3 года назад

They gave this to me for free as it was basically publicity for them. This video has had 12k views and the other videos I made about it have done pretty well, so the real winners here are Airfix. To get that many views through adverts they’d have to spend hundreds of pounds 😂 But yes, I do consider myself very fortunate that Airfix wanted to send me something to review

It's up to you how you build your models but I can't see why you think this is worthy of being put on RU-vid .

@ModelMinutes 2 года назад

There are many things we learn and improve on in time as we develop skills. This is one of my earlier videos on my channel and probably doesn't really reflect my current ability not only in model construction but also editing skills. At the time, i uploaded this video for those people who do enjoy to watch videos like this, and judging by the 96% like to dislike ratio, it would seem there are those who enjoy it and found it a worthwhile upload. I do of course understand that it isn't everyone's cup of tea, and I'm not exactly a professional filmographer. I suppose the good thing about youtube is that it gives everyone a platform to share their experiences and creativity, in much the same vein that i'm sure there are people who dislike the videos on your channel (and would also consider why you thought they were worthy of being uploaded) to those who do enjoy the content you have posted. I guess being a free platform which gives everyone the chance to upload their videos is the main reason i chose to upload this video, similar to why you did so on your own channel. Or perhaps you had an alternative motive?
