Special Hobby's 1/72 Westland Whirlwind
Просмотров 24614 часов назад
In this video I review Special Hobby's 1/72 Westland Whirlwind. Please note that I elected for an earlier boxing because of the decal options. The 2024 boxing i.e. " The Fighter-Bomber Whirlwind model comes on two styrene sprues and one with clear parts. All these are joined by 3D-printed parts, resin cast details and etches. The decals cater for four schemes, two of which in the earlier green-...

SPOT ON?! Airfix's Titanic starter set - In box review
Просмотров 13114 дней назад
"This smaller scale Titanic is a perfect way to build this iconic subject if your modelling skills are in the early stages. Coming in less parts that the larger scale versions on this page and with some pre-coloured, it gives the opportunity for anyone to create a lovely model." This is how Airfix describe this starter set and I must say, I think they've got this one spot on! This is what a sta...

A VINTAGE CLASSIC? Airfix's Bristol Bulldog
WOW! THAT IS INCREDIBLE
Beautiful
Nice built, superb plane!
Working on a Arma Hobby 1/72 Hurricane at present and it's a joy to build. Looks like the P-39 is of the same quality.
It's a lovely kit...but like all their 1.72 kits....it's bloody fiddly😮
Where do you get WW1 aircraft from?
The sprews remind me of the older kits! Not sure of the Accessibility but hey it looks alright
For a kit that simple looks pretty high detail
always go shark
Looks cool. 🛩
Cool model and review. 🛩
Nice job on your build, this old kit looks great! 👍
What a amazing plane, my favourite
Beautiful work
Thanks for this - I was concerned the kits were more basic but your vid quelled my concerns. I've ordered the set direct from Airfix which includes most paints and another free spitfire as well. Really excellent value!
I built the new fighter-bomber boxing this summer. I would have preferred to make one in dark earth & dark green, but buying a decal sheet for just one build is too expensive. I like the Whirlwind, so I'm pleased with the finished kit, but definitely wouldn't want to build another, it's a 100% short run kit. Fortunately new Special Hobby kids are nothing like that anymore. Azur / SH 1/72 MB 210 will be released soon, is that something you are interested in, French inter-war stuff?
Wow wow wow
amazing work as always!
And here we have…THREE kits. Shame on Eduard for not including ONE cockpit
The Airfix kit is the 'P' varient and the Revell kit the later and more common 'H' varient. I understand the main difference was the engines, but I don't know how different this makes the aircraft look.
Bunny wabbit hole?🤣 Jman
I have a 1/48 vac i should try to tackle!😳 If you decide on all black scheme remember to add grey/blues to black areas to break up the monochromatic look!🤔 Jman
That looks amazing
I've played the Aerodrome (R) WWI aerial combat game since 1990 using 1/72nd scale aircraft that were built by experienced modelers. I've lost contact with the guys who built my WWI aircraft kits, how can I find experienced modelers who would be interested, OR modelers who have built WWI aircraft models they are willing to sell?
awesome
@@SILENT-APPROACH thank you! 😀👍🏻
chunky
Nice model! 😊
Thanks! 😀👍
nicely done! I have one of these italeri C-47's in my stash, it was actually bought from the D Day museum in Ste Mere Eglise during a visit there, didn't realise until later that the aircraft depicted by the kit was the one they had on display as the shop is just before where leave the museum! want to put mine in a diorama along with some airfix jeep kits i picked up from lidl
Thanks very much! And yes I noticed that when I was there. I nearly did one of these in that scheme too. I guess I could always get another one haha. That diorama sounds really cool!
Very nice c47 model great job
Thank you very much! Glad you like it!
Nice model 👍
Thanks 😀👍
Such a beautiful aircraft, love the dakota. Model looks great, i made one myself a couple months ago as a gift.
I agree. I was fortunate to fly in one! Such a great experience.
@@The_Male_Modeller that sounds amazing, nice to see that there still flying
Wish they had made it 1/600
@@Jeff-cv4qn I thought that. My other ship kits are 1/600 too. That said building this one, I'd love Airfix to bring out a full collection of these in 1/1000 scale
She's a big lass, having built this beast myself, enjoy
@@Steelbackuk ah nice! Any tips? Any areas I should be worried about?
@@The_Male_Modeller not really, just she's big, but all the grebbies are still 72nd
@@Steelbackuk sounds good. Can't wait to build it! 🙌🏼
Fabulous job. Thanks for sharing 👍
@@robjohnson2821 thanks Rob. Glad you like it 👍🏻
Now this is a nice model my friend what a fine job
@@Usairborne1944 thanks so much 😀👍🏻
Im sure it will look great. What scheme you doing? I do like a camo chopper. Looking forward to seeing 👍
@@m0rce1 I'll be going for the Russian scheme. I'm sure the NATO one would look cool too but I'm not sure I want 2 of them haha.
@The_Male_Modeller looking forward to seeing it.
Looks cool. I'm a new Subscriber on your channel. 👍
@@goforitpainting thanks so much! Welcome to the channel 😀👍🏻
Have a great build. 👍
BUFFs galore!😜 Remember italeri will need wing droop modification!🤔 Jman
@@robertmunoz7543 oh really? I'll be starting it soon so any advice would be much appreciated. I've got some fabulous footage of the actual aircraft over at the RIAT this year.
👍Good overview...Thanks‼️
@@mikec.9677 no worries, glad it was useful. Eduard are bringing out so many boxings of this kit which is awesome!
I agree with the comment. This is a good diorama and it makes me want to visit Normandy again!
@@davidhunt1947 thanks very much. Yeah, I'd like to go back too!
This is a great video and a fantastic diorama! Very underrated!
@@the_car_modeller thank you! That means a lot!
Looks incredible! Did you use a varnish on top of the AK metal paint? If so, what did you use? I'm trying to find the right type of varnish to use on top of metal paint without ruining the metal finish.
😮
👍
Also a member, and got the Bunny Fighter MiG-21 as well and I intend to build it in that scheme. I also have the Bunny Racer MiG-15, which promises to be a marvelous kit as well. Great video!
With a soft paintbrush and an airbrush 👍🏻
in the part of the video in which you are making the floor of the helicopter at 2:28, could you explain me this?? please
Ah yes. So using tamiyas liquid cement softens the plastic So you can use a stiff brush while it's still wet to texture the plastic to give that non slip effect.
Hope that helps?!
how do you dust these
I just replied to your comment with a separate comment 🤦♂️ I use a soft paintbrush but also an airbrush works well a bit like cleaning a keyboard with compressed air.
Worked on her at Coltishall and also flew a fair few hours in her as well 👍👍👍
@@nigec3971 Ah amazing!!! Thanks for letting me know. I love hearing stories of the people who were actively involved in the real aircraft 😀👍🏻
