I haven't laughed out loud at a modelling video in a long time - and not because of the screw ups. Its refreshing to see a you-tuber show his screw ups and remind everyone that they are mortal too
As a humor oriented RU-vid kit model video maker myself I salute your impressive skills at both comedy and model building. I shall recommend your channel to the gloo trooper army from my channel. Kudos, Max.
Finally, a model channel for what I ACTUALLY end up feeling like mid-build, losing patience with everything else from the day before thinking I'll have a nice relaxing session. But I was wrong.
I cut out a lot of footage since I was rushing to get my first video out, so the magnitude of my fuck ups on this build isn’t done justice by the video if you can believe that 💀
Small suggestion. Avoid using red borders on thumbnails as it makes the video appear to have been previously viewed by the user when displayed in search results.
I have no idea how this channel appeared in my feed a few weeks back, but I absolutely love the whole ethos about it. The commentary is frikkin' hilarious and made me giggle quite a few times. 11/10 mate!
I’m so done with channels that build models with just music and no talking. Finally someone funny building models. Would like to see some different models like uboats, planes, tanks and so on as well
I've always wanted to do the 3 battleships that fought the last vs of the war. Washington and North Dakota vs Kirishima. I prefer 350th but no one does a washington in that scale and the ND is a late war version. The fight was off Guadalcanal. One of the craziest things to happen was a US destroyer moving in so close to the Kirishima that the IJN guns could aim lower to hit the destroyer. It bracketed the IJN and wrecked all kinds of superstructure. And did it at night.
Mate, I found you through your Bismarck video but big kudos for your editing skills and sense of humor throughout your videos. As a fellow hobbyist, I'll definitely stick around. Also, you give too little credit to yourself, you're doing quite a decent job.
And btw, I watched all of your videos like 4000 times… so I think I deserve a revenue share 😂😂😂😂😂. Never laughed so hard in my life. Pure gold. Although I have to say, in all honestly, your previous videos were a bit better. It might have been your softer tone in this video though..
Love the build and commentary. Tip: I HATE Tamiya putty, and would suggest you try Perfect Plastic Putty. The main merit of the latter is: it's WATER SOLUBLE. So it's fast drying and easy to clean up or even wash away, if you f*** up or just want to wash it off your hands. It's 10,000 times better than any oil-based putty.
Dude.... You are a Madman... I liked listening to you talk Crazy Big Shit more than watching the build.. One thing is for sure , watching your channel isn't boring. 👍 And your model turned out pretty good.🤮 -😂🤣
I hate to say this but I noticed one other thing but i don't think its your fault. The Washington is the only battleship with alternate stacks one slanted back and one forward. My dad was on BB-56 for her whole wartime service. It was one of the many stories we were told about , her unique silhouette at night. love your channel.
4:07 My heart skipped a beat right there (and I laughed a bit because the slow mo was funny), I made 1 model in my life, and only recently, a small Revell T-34, and it happened to me quite a bit By the way as a (very bad) beginner in modelling, I feel like if you made a little "beginner guide" style of video, it would help a lot of beginners like me
I hardly use putty anymore. I fill gaps with stretched spruce or even thin slices of plastic card in ten or twenty thou. Main benefit is that you are filling plastic with plastic and don’t have to worry about putty shrinking for 5 years.
You don't know yet, but using airbrush instead of spray is VERY different for priming. One of the two scratches waaaaaay easier than the other, and that's why you don't prime with airbrush
Oil Paint?...Calm down Bob Ross!!. If you had returned just a few days earlier, 10 days, maybe 12 depending on the weather and yer good...but 14 days is just tooo long. Never mind, as consolation you are a demon with that air brush!!
Still laughing. Yeah, that green is something, but she doesn't look too shabby at all otherwise. I have the 1/700 USS West Virginia BB-48 1945 from Trumpeter. It's mighty small and sits on the shelf as its micro-ness intimidates me. After watching your builds though, I think I'll pull it off of the shelf and give it a good look. Great video, well done! Thanks.
I inherited this kit, partially built, from a deceased neighbors estate...ugh, I don't think it's salvageable....any suggestions? Maybe a Manga space battlecruiser?? A Frankenship ?
Give yourself more credit. Q. Are you going for effect, or historical accuracy? IRT the latter (i.e.): a nuclear powered aircraft carrier, after a 4-6 month deployment; looks like a rust-bucket; so, imagine, a warship' appearance during WW2, under the same conditions; but, worse. 2. I sympathize, I too, IRT PEp: there's such a thing as too much detail; specifically (2) things: a. 1/700 scale halyards/ratlines/aerials/antenna/etc.; to be accurate, their thicknesses would be like spider web. b. Finishing & Detailing: to scale, one wouldn't notice panel separation (exempt 1/32+); and, even then, they'd be nothing more than a very thin pencil line. And, the only time, an aircraft looks as good as some of the expert hobbyist' depict them is within hours of their production; if kept in a dust-free hanger; and, never flown.
The real question in my mind is: Why are you wearing gloves? To avoid procreation? Prophylaxis against disease? Plausible deniability that you made any of these models? General neurosis? Because gloves make you strong? (As any kid can tell you.). If it's the last, I beg to differ. Building models with gloves is like safe-cracking with your feet.
