Airfix 1/72 WWII RAF Bomber Re-Supply Set- "Build Update #2" (10.13.18)

This is my "Build Update #2" video for the Airfix 1/72 WWII RAF Bomber Re-Supply Set that is my third entry into the "Bomber Command Buddy Build" being hosted by me, both on here and on Facebook.
In this update, I apply a gloss clear coat to seal all the painted parts, apply decals, add weathering, followed by a fianl matte clear coat and final assembly.
The next video for this build will be the "Final Reveal".

Great update brother

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Luis, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@ArmourEmpire]

Blooming impressed. Kept forgetting these were only 72nd. Super detail Martin

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Mark, much appreciated mate! Not bad for my first attempt at anything other than aircraft, then? Cheers : )

[@oldschoolmodels4189]

Looking forward to seeing the finished product. Fantastic job Martin.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks again Bryan, much appreciated! Cheers 👍🙂

[@jimwiddowson7980]

Very comprehensive mate... Always interesting building stuff you don't usually do, vehicles all the various equipment etc. Should make for a good dio. Cheers Jim

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Jim, much appreciated mate. Haven't "seen" you around for a while, I'm guessing the cooler weather is pulling you back in? Hope you're doing well? Cheers for now! :)

[@jimwiddowson7980]

I've been flying under the radar buddy! focusing on my '67' MGB GT at the moment. Just put out my first video in ages feeling inspired to do some more. Doing modelling stuff also, still have that A-26 to get on with. Now the days are drawing in, winter's on its way. Ideal quality 'Man Cave' time.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Hey Jim, I saw both of your videos you put out, both cool stuff! It's getting cold here, now...the nights this week are dropping down to freezing point and just below and the days are in 40's....chills my bones and we're not into winter yet, then we have to put up with -21'F temperatures....insane! So yes, ideal quality "Man Cave" time!

[@jimwiddowson7980]

Cheers mate... At least someone watches them... It's a bit like waiting for a bus, nothing then two come along! As for the winter your about to endure -21'F thats off the hook!! Burr!! ⛄️ 🌲

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

I watch them because I'm subscribed to you, so, I get a notification when you post a video. Yes...I hate the winters here, I want to get back to Florida where it's warm all year round and not one drop of snow!! The winters here begin in November and continue through April, sometimes into May...too many months of cold, wet, damp, snowy, icy and freezing weather! Cheers : )

[@samtownshend]

Such impressive results! Really cool to see, thanks.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Sam, much appreciated. If you’d like to see all the finished items in close-up, then watch my “Final Reveal” video- here is the link to it: ruclips.net/video/W6gdtlGr5Nk/видео.html
Cheers 👍🙂

[@MadGeniusProductions_MGP]

Amazing detail on such tiny pieces. Kudos to you! The woodwork look is spot on.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks MGP, much appreciated! Cheers : )

[@JoshMallard96]

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Josh, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

Nice progress Martin.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Paul, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@type2280303]

That is absolutely great Martin. Will give a very nice diorama with those nice vehicles in it.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Jean, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@ramblers69]

Very nice work Martin, :)

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Tom, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@bobdyer422]

Nice work Martin, these'll make a great addition to the dio.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bob, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@strikeeaglemodels1588]

Yeah! Baby! YEAH! Looking forward to seeing this on the diorama mate 🍻😉

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Warren, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@AnthonyBrown12324]

look forward to final build next to one of your recent bombers

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Anthony, much appreciated mate! This will be accompanying my Handley Page Halifax build...will be starting the diorama this week. Cheers : )

[@AnthonyBrown12324]

it's going to be great ; these items should be in a public space like a museum ; some of the displays I have seen in various museums including Cosford are not to your standard

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks for your very kind compliment and vote of confidence, much appreciated! There are no aviation museums in my region, and the closest ones focus on American aircraft history, so they wouldn’t be interested in RAF related items. Besides that, after all the labor and love that I put into my builds, I become very attached to them...trying to part with any would be like giving up a child! 👍🤪

[@AnthonyBrown12324]

I know what you mean ; maybe you could donate them to your home country in the future . they would be a pleasure for any model lover or even someone with a passing interest . In the meantime thanks for sharing your work because you always take such excellent pictures we have a good idea of what they look like .

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

I'd be worried that they'd get destroyed in transit from here to the UK, these things are so delicate. Thanks for the kind compliment, greatly appreciated! Have a great weekend! Cheers :)

[@gavinbooth]

Lovely work thanks for posting . Regards Gav .

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Gav, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@provjaro]

That's a sweet little set Martin. Very nice work on it, weathering looks cool. The maintenance tower looks the business. Kinda reminds me of a subbuteo camera tower I had as a kid.

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Paul, much appreciated mate, and yes, you're right...I had a Subbuteo set when I was young teenager and loved playing it with my brothers and mates! Cheers : )

[@thefalloutshelter7799]

very nice Martin

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Gary, much appreciated mate! Cheers : )

[@PanzermansBunker]

Martin, you did an amazing job on each and every piece of the Resupply Set. Much admiration for your fantastic skills. Happy modeling. Bill
PS: I'm working on the Fairey Battle right now!

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Bill, much appreciated mate....can't wait to see your Fairey Battle! Cheers : )

[@ModelMinutes]

Looks awesome! :)

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks MM, much appreciated. Cheers : )

[@Mishn0]

They look very good. I'll be using your build as reference for when I get to my set. Am I going to see these at GraniteCon next Sunday?

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Thanks Mishn0, much appreciated. In the 4 1/2 years I've been modeling, I've never been to a show or entered any competitions...it's very doubtful I'll be there, due to health reasons, but I've always wondered how some of my builds would fair in a competition? Cheers : )

[@polarjet1833]

I have the b-17 re-supply kit

[@InternationalBritishModeler]

Cool

[@TalksWithDirt]

KILROY!
