    @ralfhtg1056 5 дней назад

    Alone the thumbnail.... the camoupfalge pattern is historically INACCURATE! The pattern shown was in use only for a few hours during Bismarck's stay in norwegian waters. Before leaving Norway the colour scheme of Bismarck has been changed once more. The diagonal stripes on the hull have been overpainted with grey. Only near the waterline some white areas remained. The darker bow and stern areas have been made bighter so the whole hull wsa in one and the same grey! The stern wave was removed completely. the bow wave was weakened drastically. And I wonder WHY ON EARTH so many people building a Bismarck model choose this pattern that was applied only for a few hours? And only few apply the colour scheme that was actually used on her first and final voyage? This bothers me a great deal every single time, I see that. When I built my 1/200 scale Bismarck (model kit by Amati), the instructions displayed all 3 colour schemes the Bismarck had. And It irritates me that most model kit manufacturers do not provide proper information about historically accurate colour schemes. Single hull??? I would feel betrayed. Why do no kit manufactureres, except Amati, make kits where you have to construct the complete hull out of seperate parts? Keel plate (consisting of 5 parts), than the ribs, than assemble the first planking, fill in some gaps, grind it smooth, assemble second planking, fill in some gaps, grind it smooth again... Oh, and: the parts for the hull are of course made of wood! No bloody plastic.

    Just a question please. I bought a Revell SR71 kit. I am new to this and don't have the airbrush equipment. Would it be good enough to buy a can of matt black spray paint? Or would that provide an inferior finish?

    • @MaxAfterburner
      @MaxAfterburner 8 дней назад

      Hi janrabie1890, if you can afford an airbrush and a compressor and know that model building is something you're going to pursue, then I would recommend that equipment. However, if you want to try the hobby out before committing more money, you can still get some decent results with canned spray paints made specifically for model building. Don't use spray paints that you might get from a hardware store as the mixtures tend to be much heavier, and always use these paints in a well ventilated area (preferably outdoors if you don't have any way to vent the excess spray and fumes from indoors). Please feel free to ask me any questions at any time and I'll try to answer them the best I can. I hope you have a lot of fun and enjoyment on your SR-71 model build! 🥳

      Hi Walter, thanks. When using the Tamiya products I try to thin the gloss by anywhere from 20%-50% depending on what I'm doing. For the flat clear XF-86 (which is almost like syrup) I try to go 50% thinned for airbrushing. I have 4 model projects on deck currently with a WWII era bomber at #3 in the pattern. 👍

    Love how details in such a flat color as black end up highlighted. Do you put varnish before applying the oil wash? Or straight on top of the paint? What type of paint is it, acrylic, enamel? Doesnt the wash mess up the paintwork when you go over with the cloth? Thanks!! Love your videos!

    • @MaxAfterburner
      @MaxAfterburner 29 дней назад

      Hi EduWushu, no worries. I would say, however, that oil paints do not react with the acrylic paint as long as the type of thinner used such as lighter fluid is mixed in the oil paint. So, a gloss coat would not be necessary.

  • @EduWushu

    Thanks for the video! Im trying to follow same steps you did to learn, more specifically the marbling effect, which is quite nice. Question: I see you use cotton to mask the landing gear bays. Doesnt that make the cotton fibers to be stuck to the model when you paint with the black primer? Up to this point Ive been using blue tac, but I always have problems with this kind of big empty spaces that need covering

    • @MaxAfterburner
      @MaxAfterburner Месяц назад

      Hi EduWushu, glad the video may be of help to you. The cotton usually doesn't adhere since the airbrush paint layer is micro thin, but it can leave some fibers behind in spaces that need to be plucked out for sure. I've noticed that other modelers use pieces of rubber foam instead which would alleviate the cotton strands problem. 😎

    Hey, looking good! Can you tell us a little more about the talc on the exhaust?

    • @MaxAfterburner
      @MaxAfterburner Месяц назад

      Hi 140289EP, I just mixed in a little bit of the talc powder into the brown paint, swirled it around until I got a consistency that I liked, and then simply brushed it on. 🖌️

    FYI the kit was first issued in 1977 and I built in 1979. For that period it was great.

    I find it sad that the kit manufacturer didn't appreciate the difference in the fin between the single and twin seat F-105. Because of the increase in yaw about the centre of gravity they needed to increase the area of the Fin. They did this by extending the chord above the kinked area thus smoothing it out quite a bit. If you examine photos it becomes very obvious when you know what to look for.

      Hi nameflumm5270, I don't have any digital files to send. To make the templates, I used the paint guide sheets provided within the kit and enlarged them with a photo copier. You can see what ratios I used to create the masks in the upper left corner of the screen at 14:44 in the video. I hope that helps! 😀

      @@MaxAfterburner couple of questions if you do not mind 1 what tool is it you use to do the extra detailing ? And 2 this is awkward to eplain but part of main undercarriage i cannot see or workout how it fits the paart number is C4 , It appears to go towards the very bottom of wheel strut ,not sure if you can remember doing it yourself as i know its some years since you built your model many thanks Tye

    • @MaxAfterburner

      Hi Tye, you can use a scribe or a mini saw blade that will turn those panel lines into depressions instead of having raised panel lines on this A-10 kit. In this case, I used a Tamiya photo etch fine craft saw. You can lay a piece of plastic embossing tape used for lettering as a straight edge guide on the model. For part II of your question: If you look at step #9 on your instruction manual there is a better view of how C4 is supposed to sit on the landing gear parts, in particular the left man gear in this instance. Hope this all helps.

Brilliant. Besides a great modeller, the best "Advertising Engineer" said industry could ever hire. Bravo, loved the build and the vid!

    I hadn't had much interest in WW1 ships, but this one is quite the looker. Very nicely done! Another way you can do salt lines is dabbing on small amounts of flat clear with a tiny bit of sponge. It can create a very life like result if done carefully and with moderation. Love the movie clips you throw in too - very cool. Way better than emoticons

      Hi vernonsaayman9741, it's been said that the Bismarck Anti-aircraft defenses were built with other advanced types of enemy airplanes in mind and not the low and slow flying Swordfish.
