I really hope you all enjoy this video! Please give it a like and a share if you did - I'd really appreciate that. I had an amazing first time at Telford, and I would again like to thank everyone involved in the making of this video who were all so kind and helpful.
always feel sort of left out when im the only girl i know who enjoys this sort of thing i just see it as an escape from all the things wrong with my life and i can spend the whole day making and painting its so nice to do
I have just got into model building again after many long years. How it has changed. I love the fact that I can learn so much from all your videos. Really really enjoyed this one. Keep up the great work
Owen I love your channel for a number of reasons, for me you bring back to me my childhood enthusiasm of modelling Airfix kits and kits in general and Airfix got better and over the years. I also would like to say your channel title of quick kits is so apt for me because it reminds me of my bad tendency of getting too drawn into greater and greater detail, making the build longer and longer, never mind my greatest dread, painting, At that point the completion has become so stretched along with my initial enthusiasm, and the kit never gets done, and joins the other pile of unfinished kits. So thank you Owen for reminding me of the ethos your channel title suggests alongside the simplicity of brush painting, with all your skills, advice, and knowledge you try to pass on to us, I'm trying to enjoy the journey too, alongside watching your channel. You make it fun again !!!
That's fantastic news I'm so pleased that my videos are helping you enjoy the hobby more! That really means a lot to me :) Keep up the good work yourself!
Bravo Mr Owen Thank y so much for your time & hard work to telling us, the people who are living around the world, how incredible is passion of your country for this hobby Thnak y and we ll see you as soon as you can, lol
I would have to say this is the best model show video I have ever seen. You had a wide variety of interviewees, very good camera and sound, great editing and loads of links. I feel I have a much better idea of what Telford is all about. I don't think I could have resisted the temptation to buy some of the old kits though. Thanks Owen.
Great work Owen, it's so nice to see attendees get interviewed, rather than just have a standard photo gallery uploaded to a website. I was at this year's Telford IPMS on Sunday, I'm sorry I didn't see you or I would have said hello. For a model maker Telford is like Christmas come early because, as you say, the quality of much work is outstanding and there are lots of stalls to spend at as well, many of which had special offers on. My favourite model at this year's show was Pete Usher's ISU 152 diorama which won a gold and is also featured as an article in the latest issue of AFV Modeller. Thank you for doing such a great job promoting the hobby, maybe I'll see you at Telford 2018.
+his1ojd yeah I thought I could improve on the usual photo galleries, I'm very pleased that you enjoyed it! Unfortunately I didn't see that diorama I don't think - I was only there for Saturday so I had to rush around everything
What a bloody great video :) I was the one at the start on the balcony behind you ;) lol. REALLY enjoyed this presentation and representation of Scale Model World - Ivan
Great video.....nice to see the interest in model building of all ages.....purchased blue prints for the hawker tempest V from Al Bently two years ago lovey aircraft ....its on my to do list....
As many have said, exceptional video, good pace, clear camerawork. Very watchable. Last time I built a scale model RU-vid didn't exist! Now I spend hours being inspired, and I have a part-built spray booth in the garage because 2018 is the year I get back into it. Hence, 10th Nov is in my diary for Telford 2018. Good man.
Absolutely cracking video Owen! So gutted I couldn’t make it to the show. I hope this video gets the appreciation it deserves! This would be so cool if it made the local news, midlands today for the BBC as I’ll be honest it’s up there with the features they put on the news! Take care Owen! Marc.
It's a shame not to see more younger people involved but one thing that always impressed me about modellers is the fact that they have no problem sharing some of their tips and tricks. I remember going to a (now defunct) hobby show in Toronto and spoke for hours with the guys about how they achieve their realism.
This is one of the most amazing production from you Owen. The models in there are beautiful and neat especially with the kids. They make even better models than us :) This one of my favorite videos. Just how you produced and directed this..its just...wow.
Hi Owen, great video. I met you there around 10am, shook your hand and asked your friend what it was like to be with a celebrity! My first time at Telford and it was great to meet you, it made my day! Keep up the great work. Cheers from Mat in Norfolk :-)
+Douglas Lyfe hey Mat it was great to meet you, sorry I never asked your name - you're the first subscriber I've ever met so I was a bit flustered haha! I'm very glad you enjoyed your day 😃 thank you!
Thanks for your reply Owen, I feel honoured to be the first subscriber you've met! :-) Your video made me realise what I missed at the show...mainly the upstairs competition area that I didn't realise was there! Too much to see in 1 day, I'll try and make a weekend of it next year. Might see you again (I'll have my autograph book ready next time!) ;-) Great video, keep up the good work :-)
Hello from New Zealand Owen, great video mate. Really interesting content. Great to see the Hawker Typhoon Restoration group there. Would be great to see you do more model shows. Great work.
Really cool video, and really great kits. Sadly its almost impossible to come next year, as im loving in Germany and i need to go to school... But anyway this video motivated me again to make some modells and showed me once more that it doesnt need to be perfekt. Have a great day and be nice to people
Really great video. I enjoyed it especially the contact with all the fellow model Builders and the kids there. Keep up the good work. I am a big fan of your videos. Cheers.
Take a shot Every time Owen says, Link in the Description below. But without jokes this is a great video Owen, and amazing quality as always, Seriously this really looks like a great scale model show, but a bit to far for me.
Wow! This is the BEST show recap video I have ever seen! Very nice job! You can have a very bright future in journalism/video editing if you choose. Thanks again!
I really enjoyed this video - and I enjoyed it even more when my Space Shuttle appeared in close up right at the end. It was on display on the NASA SIG stand.
Excellent video, really enjoyed watching this and wished it was longer. Loved the diversity, quality and the enthusiasm from all ages. You have tempted me to attend Telford Model World next year. I have liked and subscribed already, keep up the superb work.
It will be a 3 1/2 hour drive for me, but after watching your excellent video on the show and your other videos as well, I'm very tempted to say yes, what's more, I will buy you and Kendall an alcoholic beverage of your choosing! Keep the faith guys and possibly see you 2 next year!
Wow, talk about PLASTIC's overload! I've had the itch in the past and have even fed my plastic addiction but alas, my nervousness makes it very difficult to do even the simple tasks to put kits together (I'm more into cars and motorcycles.) So I am lucky to find videos like this and those who show how they build and detail their kits. I really appreciated your video.
Great video. This year was my first time at SMW and one day there is not enough to take in everything. So I've already booked my hotel for both days in 2018!
I just found your channel thanks to this video. Thanks for showing us around that amazing show. I really like how you made this video giving an overlook and hinting to more-in-depth videos. Good work, maybe I will steal this idea from you in the far future ;)
When i visited Marshal museum in Owerloon NL i felt like some scale model builders visiting this place. Marshal museum in Overloon is museum with bigest display of WW 2 era vehicles. Then if you travel the EU it pays to visit Belgium military museum in Brusel oposit to military history museum you got car museum. Then further down in Germany you hawe Spear museum with Soviet Union space shutle Buran, Displayed Boing 747 and Antonov An-22 the bigest turbo prop in the world and much more tehnical stuff. If you in navy the Germany navy museum in Bremenhaven is place to visit with last typ of U-boats that served in WW-2 Typ-21 Wilhiam Bauer if i'm not mistaking. Well it's nice to see stuf you build on display in a scale: 1:1... 😋😁💪
Great video man, I aspire to do a similar walk around a show one day of my speciality (RC and drones). :) Really pleased your channel is making such great progress.
i recommend any parent encouraging their kids to get into kit models. if nothing else, it will teach them patience. which is a huge trait lacking in today's youth!!! it will build and teach many other life skills too!! 🇺🇸❤️
I didn't get to see most of the display this year as I could only make the Sunday afternoon. Thanks for showing quite a bit of stuff I missed. Did you see the Classic British Kits display? If you like old models thee were some true classics there. Google Unofficial Airfix Modellers Foum as the classic kits on that display were all from forum members.
Quick Kits I’ve recently got back into modelling and your RU-vid and Instagram pages are really helpful in getting back into the hobby it’s been about 15 years since I last completed a model so keep up the good work with all these videos
Cannot help but notice the average ago of people there. If the hobby is to survive then we need to attrack future generations too. At 30 I consider myself quite young for the hobby. I did quite a bit when I was 8-12 but I don't think that many do now. I do a lot of fishing too and its the same problem.
Lol that's one big microphone mate :D Jokes aside, Thanks for sharing the video. I'm excited for an expo going on this weekend in my country. Cheers and take care, Yannick
where can i get highly detailed 1/32 scale carrier borne fighter jets??? especially the F/A-18E Super Hornet (Block 30+) multi role fighter, F-35C Lightning II stealth multi role interceptor strike fighter & F-35B Lightning II stealth VTOL multi role fighter!!! also would love the legendary F-14B Tomcat air dominance fighter . . . I'm looking for top-of-the-line precision built 100% functional models incorporating features like moving flaps & rudders, retractable landing gear & opening cockpit canopy!!! would prefer fully assembled ones but could do with some DIY kits as well as a learning tool!!!
@@quickkits unfortunately I have since lost the box (it's probably just somewhere in my 'room'), but I still have the kit, and it still looks good over a year later
