Hello Sir, By any chance have you done any videos in reviewing where is the history of model building going with these companies raising their prices to the point where model building can only be affordable to the rich and elite collectors? I'm afraid like everything else in the hobby industry whether it's model railroading, everything in Radio Control, plastic models and etc. The cost will determine who will stay in that field of the hobby. Thank you for your time Sincerely Allan

Hello Sir, Wow!!! What a Channel I've never seen a Channel especially in plastic model building as detailed as this. Do you actually show in your videos step-by-step in detail as you're working on the model? After seeing this episode, I think I'm going to enjoy model building once again. Thank you for your time Sincerely Allan

Amazing kit review and actual tape up Mike..Thank you for a great video and all the best from the U.K..🇬🇧🇺🇸👍

where do you purchase the interior wing kit

Great build!

Great video

Thank you. I’m pretty sure I had that Renwal. I sure spent a lot of time studying that interior

Great video!

Great video!

Great video!

Thank you! Very good work. Next week I will start with Academy B-25B Kit (Doolittle Raid). after this I will buy the B-25J from Hong Kong Modells. It`s a new kit.

super video y yo tengo este modelo pero No trae la torreta de bola!! todo mal, es normal que un b24D no traiga la torreta de bola?

Nice review. The model looks a little basic but you can’t expect more at 1/350 scale. A few detail up additions and main deck rails will liven it up a lot. I’m thinking of building it to partner the Takom 1/350 scale floating dry dock in which it was repaired in 1944 if I’m not mistaken. www.history.navy.mil/content/history/nhhc/our-collections/photography/numerical-list-of-images/nhhc-series/nh-series/NH-98000/NH-98059.html

Excellent video! I'd love to create the resin clear ones. Just need to find some time. I wanted to get the hobby bos but considering the price the quality especially the engines and clear parts are not satisfying enough. It's better to get on a CAD program and redesign to outrun this problem. Resin printers give incredible details and the different resin types e.g. clear resin makes it a dream come true. There are 3d metal puzzle kits they are way smaller and got more details and accuracy than those metal parts that come with some model kits.

Nice build Mike of and old kits. Merry Christmas and happy new year....😊😊😊😊

Looks good can't wait to see it done

Looks like you built a boat dock

you do realize that Kleenex or any facial tissue contains huge amounts of dust. I use disposable soft shop towels available at automotive stores. Try Also True North Paints, very similar to Model Master enamels.

What topside color did you use?

Mike, please, how do you avoid ripping off the paint when you remove the masking tape ? Thanks.

Mike, excellent video on you technique on this aircraft.

Do cold war studios do the canopy for the hobbyboss B24 as well

How do you get the nose balanced so it sits on the front wheel?

Thank you for this review. Thank you for all you do in terms of your channel. Really so helpful to us fellow modelers who are trying to develop our skills. Nothing like learning from a master!

😂 I just snagged one on ebay.... for me? Or my son? Hmmmm?

Just bought one for my son, 😂, or is it for me?

Hey Mike - Alclad Copper on spark plug wires via detail paint brush ?

The rear entry door iS provided in the kit.

The skreen has been full of your hands...

I thought the colour inside the fuselage was green... Yellow zinc chromate was usually the initial promer colour

Detail looks great! Not sure if its my screen but that interior colour looks way too bright, almost more like zinc chromate rather than the green that was used. Excellent progress though, this is going to be real impressive

Excellent video! Thank you! I was getting frustrated with the seam lines and what not on this old kit (ok I’m much older than the kit) and after watching your video, it gave me patience and confidence.

I have to say these are great videos Mike. Please keep them coming 😊

Great craftsmanship- I predrilled all my framing too and didn't encounter any cracking wood. 21x12 double dog-bone

OMG, looks like you are framing a deck! LOL. That is overkill. I guess walking on the layout you got covered. :)

Sometimes don't you wish that you could shrink yourself down so that you could walk on the decks of these models?

Our grandfather saw a B-24 shot down in April 1945; the crew survived by ejecting.

HK does good work sadly like Tamiya they prefer unrealistic recessed panel lines that should be a butt joint not a separated one but it works. So far the only Revell version of this in 1/48th scale I've seen that really went cheap and lacks detail are the newer Memphis belle versions, all the other Revell kits are fine and some are old Monogram molds. Great video as always!

Mike good tip on sanding down the gun barrels and add gun sights. Have to try it

Great video

Instead of using all that tape on large areas I use plastic wrap (Saran wrap) with a taped edge. It will save you a lot of time and tape.

Great series - have learned a lot of great techniques from your books as well as these video's. I like that you are using older kits that can be successfully enhanced.

I built this kit in the 70s when it first came out, still have it. I'm thankful you're using older kits in your builds. I intend to use some of your tips and ideas when I build and rebuild my older kits

Mike I built the j model b 24 back in the early 80's. It was nice build except the rear and front gun turrets. Those halls with the lines down the middle just kind of ruins the kit. Saw your one of the one peace turrets and should make a big difference on the rear turret. Also did you get that b 24 from ebay? I get leary about buying stuff from them. Like your work and keep it up. Enjoy your heads up on problems it helps me on fixing some of these problems.😊😊😊😊

Thank you Mike. Excellent reference photos there. As you are about to start this new series of building the B-24 D, it would be greatly appreciated if you list the tools and materials you are using in this build in the videos description. Things like the Monogram kit number, any aftermarket parts, paint colors or numbers and so forth. This will help those who would like to start the build with you. Many thanks for all what you’ve been giving over the years for our scale modeling community 🙏🏻

Im on the HB 48th B24J now!😊 On the canopy top, what does that center overhead console look like from the outside? If you were looking down while standing in front of the dorsal turret... Do yo just see the wiring etc or was it covered?

Super cool walk around, Mike. Thanks for sharing.

Like your great uncle my uncle was a b24 machinic in the pacific. Where in the pacific I don't know. His brother my father was on board the uss san francisco during the war. Dangerous times in our country's history.

Great video. This brings back a lot of memories of many weekends inside this aircraft when I lived in Tucson. I did a lot of cleaning inside this bird and know that it is all original inside because it came to Pima from the Indian air force and was never stripped or modified. It just sucks that someone thought it would be a good idea to try to machine polish the outer skin. It has to be done with a dual action polisher or preferably by hand .. It was called Shoot Your Covered with a blonde cowgirl on the side of it and it was outside when I worked on it. 😁

US Navy privateer next to the B32 dominator is the only aircraft or bomber in the Pacific that made sense . Teddy Houston 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
