I'm usually building armor stuff, but when it comes to aircrafts, I have to admit I'm become addicted to Bf-109 Messerschmit ... and as far as I know Eduard are some of the best kits for this model. Thank you so much for this video.

The 109 is such a good looking aircraft, and eduard imo make the best, not as easy to build as tamiya but not far off. Either wingsy or dora have made some early 109s lately and they look very nice

Great work! I am currently building the Eduard 1/48 Bf-109G-6 [late] kit and it is a very impressive model kit. Btw, the Bf-109 actually DID have a rear fuselage centerline seam.

Great video, thanks. Nevertheless the marking on this plane is wrong and they are not on the fuselage ceter line as they should. Instead of having MT-232 it must be MT-230 representing 2nd flight in Finghter Squadron 28 in July 1944 at Värtsilä AB. The plane came strait from factory repair and so the "shy" weathering in just correct. Nice work!

Well done! Are you still using the Mission Models paints?

just found your channel and also watched your ArmaModels 1/72 Hurricane... both are very nice builds. Got a question: what is your reason for using Mission Models acrylic paint?

@lpjmodels

4 жыл бұрын

Thanks Bennet, I happened across mission models paint when doing an article for a magazine, up until then I had been using tamiya and mig paints, with tamiya I always got texture on the wing roots from the paint bouncing off one surface and planting itself on another, and tbr mig paints even after copious clear coats were affected by oil washes. The mission models paints I trialled were quite surprising, after some practice and getting to know the ins and outs of the paint it is one of my favourite acrylics to use, it sprays well, atomizes well, and is fairly hardy. I still use other brands as well, these are just my favourite so far,

why put another layer of aqua gloss on top of the decals and then matt varnish? Wouldn't the matt varnish alone be enough to protect them? Sorry, I am new to this scale modeling hobby and trying to learn.

Really you can use matt varnish and sand the carrier film smooth, the gloss I have been using to blend the carrier film in more, ( even though the eduard decals are nice and thin ) and prepare for a wash.
