The Tamiya 1/48 F-35A scale model is a fantastic kit! This build was a lot of fun and I got to try out a few new techniques. I also added some missile launches and an afterburner glow! Let me know what you think!

The afterburner effect is probably the most amazing lighting effect I’ve seen - excellent job! Only thing I can think about with the metallic color being blotted out by the Ghost Grey is that you might have to thin out the grey a lot more and apply in very thin coats. Easier said than done - I have to practice that myself for my F-16 build.

@naomihunter7749 Год назад

This turned out pretty awesome! Planes aren't typically my thing (I do Gundam kits), but this is certainly making me want to give scale jets a shot. Wonderful video and wonderful build!

@TheModelerChronicles Год назад

Thanks so much! This would be a great kit for people starting out. It's soooo easy to put together (as long as the landing gear is down lol) it's a bit pricy but worth it. Thanks for watching!!

@beckersmodels Год назад

I'm always on the lookout for well done inflight aircraft model builds and I love your solution for the afterburner in particular! Well done - inspiring! Cheers, Chris

@beckersmodels Год назад

BTW what diameter and type of acrylic tube are you using to make the exhaust cones? I'm thinking 15mm outside diameter? Will try to replicate your result if I can with one of my upcoming F-35 projects...cheers Chris

@mihalislymperakis2422 11 месяцев назад

Brilliant concept and brilliantly executed ! By far the best afterburner effect i have seen. Thank you for sharing

@TheModelerChronicles 11 месяцев назад

Thanks! Glad you like it! I'm going to try it again on future models to see if I can get it even better :)

@paradox5087 11 месяцев назад

Orange LED on missile would have made this one of the most insane builds to date

@hungrychowhound11612 11 месяцев назад

Really a great build. The patience it took and the attention to detail. The final result is just spectacular. Thanks for sharing. As far as some who may say something is not right or you overlooked something, I would just say let's see what you got. Cheers.

@BadEnergyJohn 11 месяцев назад

Looks pretty rad! I think there needs to be a definitive mach cone 3D print design. I've always wanted to do a afterburner effect, you pulled it off nicely.

@stevenyoung1999 8 месяцев назад

LOVE LOVE LOVE the lighting…not so sure about the cotton missile trail…HOWEVER….this goes to prove that you don’t have to “weather/age” to the point where it looks like it wouldn’t even get off the ground, to make it pop! Incredible mate. 👌🏻

@acescalemodeling 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic the cone is so beautiful **chefs kiss** I will definitely be tuning in to see you next projects!

Keep doing what you love, I love watching!

@1stSgtSoulStealer 11 месяцев назад

Wicked cool build, got a sub from me for sure. I know the missile bays only open for like, 1.5 seconds once the AIM-9X locks and fires to maintain stealth, but sometimes the action shots look cooler this way. Love the way you did the afterburner cone though, that was incredibly neat! Sad that this kit is only wheels down though, usually Tamiya doesn't do that, but oh well, I know that struggle all too well.

@heretolevitateme 11 месяцев назад

Amazing build! The lighting is really fantastic. A bit weird to see a f-35 shooting Sparrows, maybe clipping the dorsal fins square would make them look a little more like AMRAAMs?

@davidjohnson6965 Год назад

Great video and congrats on 1k! Like the afterburner! What I find works for me with Mr Surfacer is diluting it 60-70% Mr Levelling Thinners to 30-40% paint and if I’m not happy with the finish immediately after painting I put neat Levelling Thinners in the airbrush and spray it lightly on the model. This blends the surface and makes it much smoother and as an additional benefit it partially cleans the airbrush!

@TheModelerChronicles Год назад

Thanks for the comment! It sounds like I need to thin my paint a bit more. That tip about spraying thinner after painting is gold. Definitely going to try it. Thanks again!

@briansmith6862 Год назад

I'm guessing your airbrush has a very small tip size? 0.2? The spray pattern for priming something of this size seems very small. If I'm right, the problem you'll have is that about 70% of the paint is going on as overspray, so it lays down dry and grainy. You need it going down wet. I'd suggest a tip size of .35mm. At a push, you could thin the paint a little less (levelling thinners is fantastic), and spray at a higher pressure and a bit further away. The best resource for modellers here on RU-vid is Scale Model Workshop by Paul Budzik. He has incredible videos that will help understand how to achieve the very best paint finishes. Hope you find this useful.

@davidpalmer4184 11 месяцев назад

Great build! Mr Color leveling thinner will improve any air brush painting. It was made by the modeling Gods! Use Tamiya retarder when you thin with normal thinners, it's your second best choice. With regards to Tamiya decals, your best choice is to throw them out and source any decals from reputable on line stores that sell Cartograf decals. More money but it saves you ruining many hours of work. Excellent work my friend.

@lorenzcassidy3960 Год назад

What I liked: US flag base and afterburner lighting / exhaust plume. The latter is totally brilliant! What I didn't like: wrong type of missile aside, the whole missile launch thingy just doesn't cut it. Good job anyway! 👍👍

@Leescreativeart Год назад

For the board and at the base option I use is a router you could find one at Home Depot or Lowe’s for like 5060 bucks and you can just do 2 to 3 passes and save yourself a bunch of time router is super quick but you do want to practice on a separate piece of wood because it can fly all over the place if you are not ready lol. You build a base and save yourself all the time like you said lol

@schoggr684 11 месяцев назад

although its only a quite small detail i think its a pity that tamiya didnt include the gau 22/a with which the F35A is equipped. I know that we wont see a lot of it in the finished model but i think that it would have been a nice touch. Beside this it is a impressive kit 👍

@Mythic-zn8sw 11 месяцев назад

@brianquinlan8891 8 месяцев назад

Looks fabulous, unfortunate about the amraam incident, you didn’t have any aim-9x lying around by any chance to use instead of the aim-7 which isn’t used by the F-35. With that aside this looks great and you did an excellent job with the lighting too!

@beachbumsdn80 11 месяцев назад

@seanrobert2227 11 месяцев назад

With priming I tend to lower my pressure and not go to heavy and thin the paint way down. I rather almost go to thin and have to do multiple coats then one coat and have to wet sand. Just an idea

@harritudur176 Год назад

sparrow shooting f35. 😢 but looks awesome.

@pk_flvx 11 месяцев назад

Hey dude I wanted to make something like this but have zero experience in wiring so I was wondering if you could put out a separate “Bonus video” on all the wiring and how you did it Thanks.

@photographyisnotacrime7300 Год назад

Cool job. Great model. In regards to your airbrushing perhaps your paint is drying too quickly. Try to add a few drops of paint retarded. Does magic for me.

@mstrwil73 11 месяцев назад

Great job, but AIM-7's don't fit in the weapon's bay. In fact, the F-35 doesn't even fly AIM-7's

@GhostRider110NL 11 месяцев назад

It's a beautiful model, but using the wrong AAM is a bit of a downer.

@mstrwil73 11 месяцев назад

@GhostRider110NL Definitely. People who don't know will not care, but those who do will ruin the whole thing. We know why he swapped them out. Still an awesome job nonetheless.

@brettgatz5834 Год назад

Great build. You show the good with the bad, as it should be. Make sure your drying your air coming from your compressor as that can effect finish.

@TheModelerChronicles Год назад

Thanks for watching and for the great tip! I have a moisture trap on my compressor but I don't know if it is actually working. Need to do some research I think :)

@gadeeshi Год назад

F-35 firing AIM-7 Sparrows? :) And BTW F-35 cannot rail-launch missiles from MWBs, it jettission them down by catapult launchers and then they fire their engines being 3-5m below the plane body.

@TheModelerChronicles Год назад

lol yup its a bit embarrassing haha. With the missile launches, I was scratching my head for a long time on how to make it not look like a rail-launch but I couldn't come up with anything that looked good enough. Hopefully nobody minds 😂😆
