Building on a Budget Models
Великобритания
Добавлен 2 июл 2020
I'm Thomas, a scale model builder who (mostly) builds on a budget!
I set up BOAB Models to help share my scale model builds and to demonstrate some of the methods and materials which I use.
Building on a Budget means that I try to devise ways to help people progress in the hobby without spending a lot of money. Here you will find unboxings, reviews, builds, tips, tricks, history and walkarounds!
I don't have an airbrush, a hobby room and it's rare that I use expensive aftermarket sets.
Many of my Tips and Tricks videos show how you can use everyday items found at home to help your modelling.
Thanks for reading and happy modelling!

This sent me back to my childhood for a while when working hard on rust and paint at my old Mercedes G
"the wheels are yellow,the upholstery's brown.. dashboard s genuine leather" I keep pulling this out of the stash..looking at the parts and talking myself out of it for some reason....
Awesomely done
Really like this kit. Sometimes simpler detail is OK. I think you got the rear numberplate lights the wrong way round. I think the silvered clear piece should be nearest the plate not outerwards as y9u placed them. But its been so long since I've seen a 1st gen 5 turbo I may very well be wrong!
How long did this take you to complete?
About 2 weeks. Cure time on the paint and leaving enough time before polishing it takes longer. I think if I hadn't polished it, it probably could have been done in a week.
I was thinking about making this only yesterday. A timely review.😊
Thanks! Let me know how you get on with it!
Thank you! ... if you want to see how to print real white with a laser printer. I recommend my channel video ruclips.net/video/qL_o1BZehjo/видео.html
What is voltage of battery?
It's 2 standard AA batteries so between 1.2 and 1.5 volts I believe. Nothing exceptional.
@@BOABModels I think total voltage of 4 led is 10 v, then how they all are glowing with 2 AA battries?
Nice looking kit of an unusual subject. Might look nice as a load on a flatbed semi trailer possibly two depending on trailer size! Thanks Thomas!!!!
Thanks, Richard. Funnily enough, Heller are just about to release a new tool trailer in 1/24. Might be worth a look
@@BOABModels 👍🏻😎
Looks a nice starter kit for beginners, also for anyone wanting to practice weathering techniques, model on
Yeah, my plan is to make this with my son. Weathering sounds good too!
Nice
I try to print on decal, but for light colors i have a problem: when apply the decal it show the color under the decal. Example: if i print yellow and put the decal over a red paint model you can see the red under the decal. Or a light yellow is worse, the decal is almost invisible. Not sure what is my problem. Could be a print setup ? Thank you
Yeah, yellow is too pale on the darker red. If you want to do yellow, get white backed decal paper and cut the decals out. It's a challenge, but can be done.
Rebox the old kit its not a good Idea , not for this 😂
The exhaust tips are glued wrong way ;-)
Yeah, I mentioned it in the pinned comment.
Acalsonic skyline in grand turismo 2
Can I ask what weight paper?
Nice job! I remembered that it's LeMans decals on ebay that have the TURBO decals in a few other colours if anyone wants to order them. I haven't decided what colour to do mine in yet, I've made the 1/43 Heller version in blue so maybe red for this one. Don't think I'll be able to do as good a job on the wheels as you though.
Thanks so much. The wheels were quite the challenge. I'd been tempted by that Heller but might leave it now I've made this one.
Richard Burns and Malcolm Wilson were my favourite drivers. Absolutely superb.
Thanks very much! I've built Wilson's Metro 6R4 as well.
Very nicely done 5/5
Very kind, thanks
Great work again Thomas, love the subtle turbo decals
Thanks so much, mate!
Cool subject that is somewhat unusual on this side of the pond. Beautiful job on this, love the blue color. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! You know, despite being much closer to France, I've never seen one of these in the UK either. Maybe I need to look harder!!
@@BOABModels I saw a few of the standard versions of the car, called “le car” over here. Three lug wheels and all!
Ein richtig cooles Fahrzeug, tolle Arbeit 👍👍👍👍
Danke!
The shame is that the model has not much detail. I do not know how much does it costs but this same model from Heller or Italeri, are far more detailed.
I'd be interested to compare those as I've made the Heller Peugeot 205 T16 and that has almost no detail on the inside.
I have an original kit of the rally version, I’m too scared to build it!
Yeah, I can imagine. I wonder if they might bring that one back soon too so that might make things easier.
Fantastic work there Thomas, looks really great and lovely colour choices too. Well done.
Thanks so much, Karl. I'm glad I did it in blue
just found this video. Qualitty will be better if you look for the images in SVG-file format and download them, not copy and paste them.
Cool model. 👍
Thanks!
Love the color choice, this came out really nice!
Much appreciated, thanks!
You have done a great job, I've got this kit todo myself but don't yet know what to do but loved yours
Many thanks! My second choice probably would have been yellow and black.
ok thank you @@BOABModels
Looks awesome sir, real nice work.
Thank you kindly
Thomas music choices are always first rate!
Much appreciated, Richard
I like the subtle blues you used. Nicely done.
Thanks, Spencer. I tested it a few times as I really didn't want it to be too subtle or too obvious a contrast!
Job well done Thomas. Like the useful tips you given. Bought the kit also. like the color you picked out for it. Thank you for sharing. Regards, Chris.
Thanks very much, Chris. I hope the tips help, especially if you plan to do it blue as well.
Excellent build well done. The slightly different colour of the bumpers etc was due to the same colour paint being used on the ABS plastic, which was replacing the chrome on cars, but well noticed and portrayed. model on
Thanks very much, Sarah Jane. That makes a lot of sense - I just about remember when 'body colour bumpers' was an optional extra on smaller cars!
That's another great review from you Thomas, thanks for sharing with us all.
Thanks so much, Karl. The build video will be up in about 15 minutes too.
Its missing a hedgehog and a fox and an echidna
If I get some the right scale, I'll add them.
@@BOABModels ok
Looks good but is it a real 1/25scale. It looks slightly bigger. Maby 1/24
Thanks - as for the scale, it was what it said on the box.
Nicely done, pal. Watching this video was very amusing. Great model, Chopin's beautiful music, nice narrator's voice, and, finaly, comparisation of first and one od modern Benz cars.. thank you.
Thanks so much, really appreciate the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it!
To each his own but I never liked the movie or the Delorean car.
To each his own, indeed
I wish this was in Walmart Target CVS Pharmacy WalGreens Amazon Toys R Us Grana Toys Trendy Toys and KidzVille Rides & Toys here in Riverhead.
Great video an I am in a nursing home I got hurt about 4 years ago and I am in a wheelchair now an I have been in scale RC an building things an now scale garage dioramas and models so thank you for sharing your videos
I'm glad you enjoyed it and I hope you continue to enjoy the hobby too

Amazon has a decal paper from a company called Koala. It is a no clear sealer decal paper. I was very skeptical, as the ink on my printer runs if you look at it with watery eyes. but not only did the ink not run, it dried in minutes. The only issue I had was the corners sometimes want to come up as it dries, and you just need to hit it with some more setting solution. It cuts out the entire step of clear coating which saves money on clear, and the clear causes my ink to run no matter how long i let it dry (Canon eco tank printer ink runs really bad).
Great tip, Justin. Thanks! I will look out for this paper next time I need some more!
This is a great kit, this version is not that rare. You can still find for around 30 Euros in germany but 5 pounds is s great deal. 😊 The rare version of this kit is the full white metal engine version. I have rhat one in my stash still pending 😅😅 and looking forward to see what you do with thia kit to get some inspiration. 😊
Absolutely that's the rarer version, but I still think this is the rarest kit I currently own. I certainly wasn't going to turn it down for that price.
