What spray adhesives would you suggest? I keep finding them to have acetone which is a no go.

Thanks again ( watched part 1 prior ) saved some money, as was looking at buying this kit. The wing root isn't even following the same angle in your still shot. Terrible quality throughout. The 1/75 Kits aren't too bad, all said, how they can make a larger version with worse tolerances in a miracle in modern engineering - Go India !

Excellently done. Was rough as Rats in comparison, would need a lot of work to be satisfied with. Thanks

Wish I could shift my perspective to one like this, but for now I'm sadly still stuck in the "look how much time I spent only to disappoint myself, what am I doing..." era of my scale modeling.
@scale-model-workshop8 күн бұрын
That's a choice you've made. Only one in control is you. But then again, that just gives you another thing to be disappointed about.

@@scale-model-workshop I hope it will change over time, but when you're still new to the hobby and learning through mistakes (which is necessary) it's always a bummer to not come close to your vision or expectations.

So glad to see you back posting. You have the same perspective that I do when it comes to building models. The enjoyment is for me and me only and I do my best, but never try to satisfy someone else’s world.
@adriengadson35449 күн бұрын
Good thoughts and build to enjoy and please yourself. If a person wants to be a super detailed builder . Then they may need a basic model also getting built to release the stress of the other. In the end there just plastic models.

I built a series of four Monogram 1/48 Lightnings, and utilized your recommendation to use the CA and dental resin from an earlier video you did. Getting the nose doors to fit while making one removable on the “Night Lightning” presented a similar challenge. Great to see your channel return active again. Will look at your Patreon.

Perfection doesn't exist in nature. Try to achieve it, in any field, and you'll be disappointed. When you start shouting at a piece of plastic, that's the time to stop. Maybe for the day, maybe for years before coming back to the model. I find I need a connection with the subject, something about it that drives me to see the "problems " as fun, rather than a nuisance.

Thank you for the light of knowledge! I personally have found scale modelling as the best possible way to develop my handworking skills together with understanding of engineering and systems in entertaining way. Enjoying fixing the kit production flaws more than easy quick assembly and obtaining gloss even surface of lapped plastic more than weathering. Always looking for challenges, buying especially crap kits, meeting new materials, restoring second hand vintage models etc.

Hi Paul, perfect timing !! l’ve been procrastinating over two old 1/24 330P4 (Fujimi/Union) models on the bench, trying to understand how to combine them for the best result. Best result for who, I now ask. So thank you for the reality check, really appreciated. Trust you are well, thanks so much for these words of wisdom

After watching a lot of these modelers on you tube it is refreshing to this hobby put in perspective. You, Paul, Mike Ashey and old boy on scale model aircraft just build models in the best way possible. Always look for watching you and the other two. There was one more his channel was the scale modeling technique, he passed away last year.
