Another success, FCM.....epic series from start to finish....and an amazing final reveal. Thanks for sharing many tips during the build which will come in handy when I tackle this kit some time in the (near) future. I look forward to the next exciting video series :)
Great job mate. Rivet lines in this scale are a must since they add so much more interest to the fuselage and wing surfaces. Bare, flat panels are just too bland to my eyes. Some would disagree but this is an artistic licence I would take. I wish more kit manufacturers would add at least a small amount of rivet lines to ease the work of those who want to add this feature and to cater to those who prefer minimal rivets - don’t just have panel lines alone. 😅
Thanks Ronald, I completely agree with you. I believe companies do not add them to save production money. However, if you take any Trumpeter (especially their early kits), you would rather not have their rivets/bullet holes lol
I wonder why do you use future instead of gloss varnish and how long does it take to dry? Don't you try gx gloss varnish for instance, it dries within some minutes and you are ready to go on.
I'm surprised that gloss paints in camouflage colours weren't successful. You get good decal adhesion and eliminate the need for an intermediate gloss coat.
yeah decals are great and right now there is a trend of not using gloss coat before decals, but I do it in the old-fashoined way. Moreover, wash has to be applied only on the gloss coat...
Looks great. Another superbly detailed model. Well done.
Thank you so much Trevor!!

@@FlyingCircusModels yes, I’ve seen some of the work done by Trumpeter’s mad riveter. ☺️

Future works like a gloss coat, it dries also pretty quick. I have a huge bottle and I like to use it
