Excellent job. What a fantastic kit. Eduard really are getting closer to Tamiya every time they launch a new kit.

From St. Joseph, MO, USA. (40 miles north of Kansas City. I enjoyed your narration! I didn't have to depend on the captions to understand. I enjoyed your build and appreciate how you focus on the main aspects that draw the eye of the viewer in. I also appreciate the light weathering, after all we want to see how the actual aircraft looked, not an exercise in grime and wear & tear. You've made a a great looking aircraft. Kudos on you & your film.

Amazing build luke,the amount of detail on this kit is amazing as always with Eduard,and the way you managed to bring it all out was fab.At first I was quite hesitant with How you used the plastic cockpit instead of the photo etch one,however when you painted it up it looked much more authentic,and afterall everyone is meant to have their own personal model,and you made yours stand out from the rest.I will send you my first aircraft in around 3 years,and be free to judge it,it is Airfix’s Stuka 1/48,have a great weekend!

I used some of the decals on my Accurate Miniatures P-51B, built as a primer to going into Eduard's, and also left the carrier film on. The only place I've noticed it appears obvious is on the roundel on the invasion stripes. Part of that is my fault for not outlining it, but... Meh. They still look really good and adhered to all the detail quite nicely with Tamiya mark fit strong. Haven't gotten my varnish on them yet, so I'm hopeful the carrier film won't be obvious on the finished project. And goes without saying: Nice 'Stang! Dallas Darling turned out great.

Im newish to scale modelling and about to start a Tamiya De Havilland Mosquito kit. It’s my first aircraft build with a detailed cockpit and after some advice/tips Do you generally assemble the entire cockpit/subassemblies first and then prime/paint or do you divide it up and assemble after painting? And do you use a primer on everything or just large surfaces e.g wings and body etc?

@machmodels

22 күн бұрын

I think the more you model the more you understand how you like to work, for me however I try to assemble as much of the cockpit as I can before I start to paint and when possible I’ll prime most parts. That being said it definitely changes a lot between models, if you watch other videos on the channel I might alter my approach👌🏻☺️

I don't get why Eduard did not learn form their p-51D and fixed the rivets on the right fuselage body on the top of the engine cowl. I see they did not even add the prominent fasteners to the top again as well. 😒🙄

I personally haven’t build the D variant, but I understand what you mean… just required a small touch up with a rivet wheel I guess!

Great work. Don’t sweat it on the decals but if you ever want to try removing the carrier film, follow Wasatch Modeler’s method. It has worked every time for me.
