Mahay's Attic

Hi,
Thank you for reaching this youtube channel. My name is of course Mahay and I absolutely love 1/144 scale aviation and airport operations.
What I am also trying to achieve through this channel is bring the person behind, the modeller, closer to you, the viewer. That is the reason for the intros 😊

I'm an avgeek, crazy about airlines livery, airplanes colours and paint scheme. :) I also love producing and editing the videos related to my assemblies and the present them to you guys! ☺️
My ambition is to create 100 videos covering planes for all major airlines.

I'm far for a perfect modeller but trying to improve my technique with each model that I'm creating. And of course I thank you, my followers for this and for each advice that you guys are offering.
I encourage you to Subscribe and become part of the community that this channel is trying to gather.
SUBSCRIBE HERE: kzread.info ✈️☺️
Thank you so much and enjoy the content.

  • @MahaysAttic
    @MahaysAttic15 күн бұрын

    I usually use a polish sandpaper with 2500- 3000 grit. Use it with wather for wet sandpaper Don't use any presure just circular rub and you should get some results:) A better idea and i'll use this myself is to use cotton polish with tamiya compound. It works brilliantly

    Yep. I start with 2500 and 3000 But I'm doing that on 3 layers of paint and a primer base. Don't sand if you spray only 1 layer.

    What's that decal solution you apply?

  • @MahaysAttic
    @MahaysAtticАй бұрын

    I use revell decal soft. I've never tried anything else and it looks like the revell one does the job right. You just need to be fast. Once you've added the decal solution you have like 10 seconds to get it right. After that you'll get in trouble maneuvering the decal:)

    Usually 1:1 for acrylic paint. But for the fuselage I'm doing 3 layers. 1st one 1:2 1 paint 2 thinner. Then the other two ones 1:1. I might have the 3rd one with even less thinner like 1:0.5. It depends on the color and the number of layers
