2023 in Review! What Was Created On The Bench This Year. And WIPs as Well
Nice haul from the show John, glad you had a good trip. Cheers Bob 👍
Thanks Bob!
Cool models. Have a great build.
I liked the irony of buying a saw made in the US in the UK to take back to the US. Hope you had a wonderful visit John Alec - I couldn’t make Telford as I have a medical driving ban at the moment but it looks to have been good!
@@NeilMicklethwaite1812 I know I paid $20 for the thing lol. Sorry to hear that Neil it was a great show cheers
I needed a compass at Telford.. kept losing my bearings 😂. It was really great (lucky) to bump into you both, and many others from the Airfix n Chill stream etc. It was so busy, Saturday. I wish I'd thought of getting tools and accessories too. Get well soon, John
It was fabulous to meet and chat with you and Celine thought you were chill and cool! It was great stuff on Sunday much less crowded. Cheers
Hi John, It looks like you picked up some great stuff at Telford. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. Jeff
Always great to hear from you Jeff thank you. Came back with something worse that I arrived with. Thanks for watching buddy, take care.
See John had you not made it over then you would have missed out on all them goodies and what is a wee cold germ caught at Telford by comparison to your catch?
Haha! Wouldn't have experiences a steak bake from Greggs either! All good thanks for watching Atholl
Very nice selection. you did well there.
Thank you kindly David!
Great video, thanks John Alec 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it Darren!
Hello mr. Jasm!thatsca very nice one.keep up the good work. Wrh sticky greetings from Brandenburg germany.faithfully yours.your modellmate.christian
Hello mr. J!icur wearing gloves while modelling.i tryed that2.but i had no fine feeling in my fingertips.so I abandoned the gloves.a nice little gem you have created.i also like your narration.also I truly appreciate ur efforts.of course you deserve a thumb up.and.keep ur mojo and keep the faith.with best regards and sticky greetings from sandy Brandenburg germany.faithfully yours.your modellmate.christian
Thank you Christian. My hands get oily and I find they really help but the reason you don't see me gluing a lot of small parts is because the same, I cannot do that with the gloves on. You too mate. I am a long time supporter of FC Freiburg. Cheers
I first tried the Bronco version, and it was ridiculously, needlessly fiddly, almost impossible. That Tamiya version is just as detailed,but it moulds teeny-tiny parts onto larger parts rather than expecting you to bull them in place with oversized tweezers. An easy kit with no guessing.
Yes mate probably the best designed tank I have yet built. Thanks for watching and saying hello. Cheers
Hi I'm from southern Asia, Malaysia
Very nice, thank you for saying hello and cheers to Malaysia.
Looks like a phenomenal kit, John, and I loved the build
Thank you so much Alex. It was a glorious kit. Cheers
Nice unboxing John, love that an engine is included because sometimes these Japanese kits do not have one. Have fun with the build 👍
Thank you David - it's all 2k'd and I just need to clap it together. Cheers my friend.
Q: on my F15 after covering the marble basing with base color the surface ended up a bit too rough. I probably sprayed too far. what sanding grit u recommend to smooth it out without damaging paint job ?
Good question, if you use a 3000 grit sponge gently that is wet you should be fine. I use that to wet sand primer all the time. Cheers
Q: I have the H&S infinity. Dry tips a lot with AK, Vallejo, Ammo paints. Maybe better results w/ Mr Color or Tamiya ? Also, trigger response isn’t good, have to pull back almost 1/4 for paint to flow. On my Iwata Neo, slight pull and good to go. Is this normal ?
Great question. AK 3rd Gen, Vallejo, MIG acrylics, Mission are notorious cloggers even with thicker needles. I only use paints I can thin with Mr Color Leveling in the H&S. Tamiya, Mr Color, AK Real etc. Honestly I have not yet gotten used to working with it it's no where as fluid to operate as an iwata. I only use the H&S when I need very fine lines or dots. Otherwise it's the Iwatas. Cheers
@@johnalecsscalemodeling i did have the Iwata Eclipse HP-CS. Really liked it but returned it to Amazon cuz it stopped working - wouldn’t go beyond 25psi 🤔. debating whether should buy another. Maybe got a lemon.
cool, love this kit, I finished it last WE, now going to paint it also... did you publish the other part, the painting part, as I'd like to see how you did proceed.
Thank you for watching Patrick - it's still here on my shelf! It's the email that drops down below your to do screen I appreciate you bringing this back up I need to get it finished. Cheers
Superb John, you should be very happy with the way the kit turned out despite the fit issues. I think that the gloss black and the chrome finishes are amazing, so thankyou for sharing the information on that, cheers.
Thank you for watching Steven, much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice work John, that colour scheme is going to look great.
Great work on the engine John, looks like you have got your enthusiasm back, enjoy.
That looks like a great kit John, enjoy the build.
Excellent work, I use automotive paint on my models and I have had very good results, I don't even need to polish after painting, as the paint surface is very smooth and very shiny, but this comes from the experience I have of 25 years, I usually heat the pieces in the sun before they are painted, heating mechanically after applying a varnish ensures that the varnish is very smooth and gives the solvent time to evaporate.
Thank you Henrique I appreciate the advice on that. I used to auto paint as well. Thank you for watching and for the great advice. Cheers
Nice job, fella...
Same as last time 🙏💞👍🍺
Loved this episode awesome build 🍺💪👍💞🙏
Thank you Eddy!
She's a beauty John!!
That cockpit is stunning John!!
Thank you Nigel!
What glue did you use to get the parts to Stick to the hull primer ??
Hi Stephen I used either extra thin or CA glue. 90% of the time I can glue with extra thin where they index the acetone in the cement has no problem going through the paint o the plastic. Other times I use CA glue. These days I just use VMS flexy 5k. Thanks for watching - cheers
Fantastic job John, the canopies look so clear!
Thank you Craig!
Beautiful! I never heard of Them, how much does this Kit Run ??
Thank you Stephen - I want to say it was $50-60 I can't remember how much it was exactly but it was at least that. Thanks for watching. Cheers
Beautifull
Thank you Roberto!
Looks a fantastic kit John. RHD too, the correct side! Looking forward to seeing the build.
Than you Craig. Yeah I'm one foot in already. Cheers mate.
Looks very nice, I can't wait to see you build it!
Thanks John great review of a very nice looking kit. This was a car I always liked and dreamed of owning and driving. Maybe at least I could build this kit. I look forward to your build video.
Thanks David! My friend's dad had one he picked up in Japan. It was so cool! Cheers
Hi John I have got this kit and what a great kit it is bag for your buck I have not build it yet but I hope soon
Good stuff GB, want to do a buddy build with it?
@johnalecsscalemodeling I would not be able to start it until December I have so much bits and pieces I have to do for people so I can start it in December john if that suits you mate
@@gbmodels7790 I'll probably have it done by then, let's looks for a new chance to do a buddy build. Maybe my vid can call out and help with the kit I hope. Cheers
Hi John, this looks to be a great kit, when I grew up in New Zealand these were just called a 240 Z, looking forward to the build videos, best regards from Australia, Les
Thanks Les! A friend of mine's dad had a right side drive he picked up in Japan in the 60's. He stuffed a cobra-jet into it. Dad's name was Donald Weir.
Thank you John. Can't wait to see the build video!
Right on Alan!
Very nice kit, Thank you John
Glad you liked it David, cheers
Looks like a great kit, I'm looking forward to the build, thanks John Alec
You bet Darren - cheers
Greatings from Germany!
nice kit
Dear J A, That’s a great finish and a pity that the decals weren’t more cooperative. Mind you- it looks good! (Let me know when you’ve filled up your swear jar!!) Regards, Z
Thanks, will do! Thanks Zinzan appreciated yeah glad it is done I think I realize now what too big is LOL.
Hey John, I really enjoyed this build and it looks excellent, great work mate 👍
Absolutely Steve thank you and sorry for the delay. Glad you enjoyed it I'm in a plane groove just now.
Hi John, It's really cool. 👍
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. Great build.
Beautiful work John nicely done on the interior 👍👍🏆
