Excellent work.

Thank you for this video!!!!

Great tips, thanks 👌👌

can I use micro sol over restored (glosscote) decal? and get the effects of the micro sol ?

Looks good. Except... the cockpit windows look a little meh.

She looks awesome😀

Amazing work.

I turn the bottle upside down, and using an eyedropper squirt a little lacquer thinner around the gap between the bottle and the lid. Let it sit for 15 minutes or so, and it comes off pretty easily.

For anyone in the UK, latex paint is what we call Emulsion paint.

Hobby2000 sells vinyl masking tapes with sizes down to 0,5mm. They are really nice

absolutely beautiful !!!!!!!

Wonderful build, of a beautiful plane. Thank you for sharing your art and techniques. :)

A well produced video. Excellent

It's the coolest looking of the V bombers, possibly coolest looking bomber of them all. Though I think many people would also call it fugly, which, strangely enough, is also kinda fitting.

What is that blue wide masking tape you use?

A new subscriber here: Great looking model!

Can I use Mr. Top Coat instead?

*I have the old Matchbox kit with the Flypath set to enhance the model, your Airfix model will be an reference to follow when i'll build it!"

On the camo I always use the same method as you but form the "spaghetti" divider out of thin rolled blutak. Mascol, a rubber based paint is used to mask the already finished colour. You can also use copydex rubber based glue which is normally used on fabric. Much quicker than masking tape with just as effective results. It peels off easily even when over sprayed with the pad of your finger end. Never thought of black painting window glass, a good idea as the cockpit interior can't be seen on the 1/72 Victor. On the Vulcan though the whole canopy was lifted off by light crane to make access for service of front seats and instruments easier thus showing cockpit and rear crew positions. An interesting diorama subject if you want to show an airframe being serviced and the detailed cockpit interior of these models. Love the finished product, very well done.

...you know you're using the gnippers backwards, right?

Great job ! I used to work in the factory where thé t1nker conversions were made. Brings back great memories of a special aircraft

To think, they were originaly built to nuke Russia...

Looks cool.

Another quicker way of priming a model is to use Tamiya Fine grey primer from the rattle can as this self levels as well, allow to dry and just use a fine 8000 grit polish cloth to sand any blemishes back

Very nice awesome build jet fighter

Beautiful job on the most handsome of the V bombers.

1) As a tanker, she's probably getting more weathering than she ever would as a bomber. 2) To go to all that trouble and not install the cockpit was a crime.

Hasegawa's WWII Japanese subjects were/are always exceptional kits. You have done a superb job on this one. Cheers from New Zealand.

Very nice.

What a great build. Well done.

A beautiful build of an amazing aircraft. I was at RAF Marham where 55 and 57sqdn Victors were based. It certainly brings back fond memories. Well done 👍

Sorry but all this work for a camouflage without fading was not worth the trouble.

wow this paint'n pour is amazing, will surely try it out

A very nice build, well done. When I was in the Air Cadets here in the UK in the late 1970's to early 80's, my squadron was 57 Victor Sqdn. I have a photo of all us cadets standing in front of a 57 Victor when it visited us at R.A.F. Manston, Kent where we were stationed. Happy memories.

Beautifully built

Good idea.

I'm 61, been building kits since I was seven years old.... NEVER seen or heard of 'paint'n pour' before ! - Never stop learning, it's my favorite mantra to live by. And having spent a lot of time back in the day around the old Victor(s) , gotta say your camo looks exactly right - great idea to use an 'nearly white' for the underside, far more 'scale accurate' than a stark pure white (I do the same, never use straight black either). Cheers from New Zealand.

Stunning build of a fabulous kit of a beautiful aircraft. Thank you!

I think I was about 12 years old, living in a german "fightertown", walking by the cemetry in town when I heard something of a rumbling jet sound never heard before, looking up. My eyes wide open I saw a UFO? No, a not more than 1000 feet hi Victor came in on a simulated low level bombing run I guess, cause the course was completely off the runway but in direction to the middle of the base (and there was no accident also :) )

Perfect build 🔥🔥🔥

A very nice and descriptive build, I've always liked the Victor ever since I first saw the prototype flying over North Watford when I was a lad. It just had that futuristic look. I heard the prototype actually went supersonic in a swallow dive, the RAF's first supersonic bomber. Back then, I always wished someone would make a model of the Victor, but nobody did except Matchbox, but by then I wasn''t making models, having drifted away from modelling. Then Airfix tooled this new model and I must admit I was very tempted but these days I don't really have the space etc to justify getting one, but it's good to see the Victor again as it's still one of my all time favourite aircraft, and it's British. Thanks for the build review and re-awakening some memories.

Cool build! The pinstripe tape looks interesting. I haven’t been too impressed with Tamiya’s vinyl tape. Take care! Drew

I agree with your commentabout her lines, curvey like a beautiful woman.

Suggestion..keep the cockpit but install some lighting, simple or extravagant.

Outstanding build. The Victor, and to a certain extent, Vulcan, have such complex shapes and curves that masking and painting can be a real challenge. You've accomplished this task admirably. Very well done. 👍

monster of a airplain ! mean !. ^^

very easy way to mak the samlines tak valejo putty smir it on the line tak a cottonstick mak it weath and driv carfull medium fast over the seamline and you will be surpriced how easy this works ! witout sanding.

Do Airfix not include the retractable air intakes on the upper fuselage just forward of the fin, these are normally in the open position when the aircraft is on the ground.

What an amazing warbird
