    Really nicely executed. Beautiful lines on the Lotus 25, and what a man was Clark, both as a driver and as a gentleman. Different era. Better in many ways. Nice video too. Not easy. You take care with your work and it shows. Thanks.

      @@scalemodelmaker659 your very welcome! I see that you used Tamiya TS Clear over the decals.. I've been hesitant to do this with risk of damaging the decals how did you find painting over them?

      @@mattdoyle9772 I have had mixed results. It is best to start with really light mist coats. There are other clears which give better results over decals.

    Did you have trouble getting the main body piece to lay straight on the monocoque? Mine wants to sit up towards the rear of the car. Great video, very helpful.

    • @scalemodelmaker659
      @scalemodelmaker659  2 года назад

      I had no trouble at all. This kit went together easily. Perhaps yours has a slight warp? I have a MFH kit where the body has a slight warp.

    Great model kit, but the more important issue at hand: are you ok? You sound like Eeyore from Winnie the pooh. Like, you good chief? Is everything money? Do you need someone to talk to?

  • @briansmith6862
    @briansmith6862 4 года назад +1

    Nice job. The only comment I'd make is that Tamiya Silver is notoriously the very worst out there. It's almost impossible to get a decent finish when brush painting as its grain is very coarse, and it tends to dry quickly. And it'll clog most airbrushes. I think you would be far happier with the Vallejo range of mettalics; far smoother and less frustrating to use, and good value as it covers much better. It's a little fragile, but if you are layering it won't be a problem. Keep it up.

      Thanks! I totally agree with your comment on the silver!

    as a beginner what tools should i buy for this kit

    • @scalemodelmaker659
      @scalemodelmaker659  3 года назад +1

      I would buy a good hobby knife(Xacto or similar), sprue cutters, and some sanding sticks.
