The WORST kit I've ever built! - 1/48th BF109E (Cough)

This 1/48th BF109e is actually 1/55th. Its also a BF109F/G. Its rivets and detail are absolutely made up, the decals are stickers and the entire kit has almost zero basis in reality - 0/10 would not build again. Save your money.

The Airfix starter set challenge - How did i do?
Recently subscribed. I can't figure the algorithm. You've been around a bit and this is the first video I've seen of yours. Best of luck with the channel none the less. That is the most rigging of any other builds on yt and it is the b-mb. Sets it right off, looks great. I've seen pictures of sails that were two color and the 'mauve' we'll say was included. Nice. Hoping to find the time to go through your the back catalog of videos. Be well.
It might be cos I’ve uploaded very little in the last few months, and the algorithm is a stickler for regular content, but all my build videos and tutorials, are available in separate playlists if you click on my channel. Watching the videos all the way through really helps to get into the algorithm, as well as liking the video! Thanks for your comment, I hope you are well!
❤❤❤❤
Shut off the stupid music! Thumbs down.
Great!
Thank you?
I did not recognise any of the kit parts, but luckily the aircraft name and type is on the bottom of the decal sheet!
bugger. i didnt even think of that!!! lmao
Recognised the exhausts almost immediately. The registration almost confirmed it. But yeah, I checked..... English Electric Lightning F3
Oooo let me see , the things that only uses wings to keep the navy lights apart
Lightning. Can't wait to see what you do with that pallet though
english electric lightning
hey tam, i know this vid is a bit old but why arent you using your voice?
cos i had a brain fart at the beginning of the year to try to sound more professional, so i used AI to do the voiceovers for about 2-3 months, till it became clear the audience didnt like them. A little experiment to make things easier that failed lmao
Menuda manera más chapucera de trabar, pintura cabina a pincel sin imprimación, cables super dimensionado, pulido lo basto....😮
what a sloppy way to insult someone, in a foreign language you think they dont speak... I look forward to seeing the video of your effort. i hope since you've criticised mine, you can do better? cos if not...
The flaps can dangle down, but I think the airlerons are straight when parked. They are connected and are either up/down or down/up and don't work like the elevator.
I had that short short on one of my wings on the earlier kit. I found it in a previous 40 year old stash late last year - it was my last kit from that period. Fixed it with a bit of filler 😊
I used sprue goo, and then rescribed the panel lines 😌
yep that cockpit glass is brutal to paint
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching! Part will be out on saturday hopefully!
Great video! What paint did you use for the RAF interior green?
Thank you! I used interior green by Vallejo air 😊
Hi Tam. At the risk of becoming another t-shirt in your merch store, I'm puzzled why the Lancaster and other builds on your channel have visible, unresolved seams. It's a modelling basic and not something I was expecting to see here, given that you've already written three self published 'how to' books and have overt ambitions to be a 'modelling influencer' - for clarity, any modeller is naturally free to ignore this aspect when building for themselves but if models are offered up to publication as a route to learning and as an example to guide others then there's at least a tacit obligation to eliminate seams. That's clearly the case here - to emphasise, I don't mean this unkindly Tam and you're obviously free to disregard as you prefer. Either way, can I say that I really do wish you and the channel well going forwards. 🙂
Don’t worry, you won’t become a t shirt 😂 you are correct. I’m a very forgetful modeller and I tend to forget about them until it’s too late. Sometimes though, it’s just plain laziness. I will definitely try harder in my next builds to do so
Cheers for that Tam. Double points for being objectively honest. You Tube has various measures that quantify channel success. What it can't pin down though is how many folk have dropped by and skipped past subscribing because of something like the seams thing. Could easily be multiples of what you have at the minute. I guess it's a simple case of making sure all your bases are as good as those with 20,000+ subscribers or better still. Otherwise things will inevitably plateau or erode. I'm not a You Tuber, at least on the modelling front but we are in a similar ball park of the hobby in terms of building for an audience as I'm a contributor on Airfix Model World (AMW). Same requirements operate there obviously, although I get ruthlessly quality checked by the editor, whereas you need to be your own critic and wear the contributor and editor hats simultaneously. Anyway, as I said before, wish you well with the whole deal Tam! Best regards Steve
Welcome back, nice job on upgrading this kit, Tam 💥👍💥
Thanks mate.
That was most enjoyable to watch particularly your foray into scratch building. Well done! It's nice to see some old school modelling. Just one small note. The wheel hubs you've selected are incorrect for an FB.VI. These variants had solid hubs on both sides. Later types also followed suite. It was only the prototype and B.IVs that had the slotted hub, and these faced to port, whilst the starboard side were solid. A small matter, but perhaps something to note for future builds. Just saying. Good presentation. 👍
thanks for the heads up, i didnt have a clue about that!
@@KABModels No problem. Will look forward to your progress with much interest.
I think you're being a bit harsh on this basic kit, I made this as the Mk.XVIII and was very pleasantly surprised, compared to the original release back in the 1950's this was a quantum leap forward. The no-shimmying tail wheel was a pleasant surprise as was the fit apart from the 57mm canon housing but the wings were superbe I reckon Tamya would have been proud.. Yes i agree the interior detailing is a bit sparse and the canopy was very thick could have easily been replaced by Arfix but lets face it the exterior of the mossi is a very plain aircraft, but at least there were two crew members supplied, now if only Airfix could dicky up the cockpit and replace the canopy and re-release the model they could add three more marks to their range , the FB Mk.VI the night fighter and the Mk.XVIII to the B. Mk.XVI and the PR. Mk.XVI. I'd buy them.
i enjoyed the scratch building as its the first time i've ever done any, so i would build this kit again!
Great build Tam and looking forward to part 2
gotta find my airbrushing mojo first lmao
"This was done using white styrene cardboard type stuff." A modeller after my own heart.😂 Looking forward to part 2. I have one of these in the Mosquito/262 Dogfight Double.
Thats the official term right there ;)
Nice work so far. Look forward the part 2
Nice Mosquito kit, looks great so far.😊
Tam I have more books on modelling than I have room on shelves for, even models I do not make these days.

Just a tip from someone who has sailed longships, the sail is boundup using the sheets, so a looping thread from one end to the other would be more authentic, as it were. The up-right stands are really to hold the oars out if the way when not needed. There's no need for stands to support the furled sail as you can just houst it out of the way - whereas oars can roll around and be a danger underfoot.
Flappy-bits = my Ex.
this t shirt might be for you then! my-store-c82f9d.creator-spring.com/listing/flappy-bits-t-shirt
I am brand new to WWII scale modeling. I just bought this kit as my first stab at this. Your painting and weathering both amazed me and overwhelmed all at the same time lol.
Thank you! If it’s any help, watch it and follow it step by step when you do yours (if you want to achieve the same sort of effect that is) and by the time you’ve finished, you probably won’t need to watch it again for the next one 😊
Switched off halfway during video due to horrendous music making your commentary virtually inn audible, got the gist .
you already mentioned this with your last comment. thanks for the free algorithm engagement though.
Oh wow you really know how to do that huh? I just stub my fingers pushing the little prongs down 😂
I'll send you a metal ruler just for that job lmao
Good idea Tam
