I cheated for the photos and used blue tac! But, it was damaged in a house move so I carefully opened the nose up and placed in some steel bearing

I mainly used Vallejo, you can find a full list in the comments section. Any questions let me know!

Thanks! I would love some figures too. The Red Arrows have a very special place in my heart and I'm planning a flying diorama and looking into 3D printing some figures.

Thank you! I used Vallejo Model Air 71.09 Medium Gunship Grey for the base grey. I have links to the paints and conversions in the description if you don't use Vallejo.

@@TeaPoweredModels I'm looking at this kit after I build my first A/C kit through Academy's Apache 1/72. Do you think this is a noob-friendly kit? I'm still looking at other options of this kit like the hobby boss kit or Italeri, but those seem to be hard to find here locally and this seem to be the cheapest 1/48 of the A-10(at least here, locally). Might have to use alternate spray can paints tho as I don't have an airbrush and I think hand brushing the whole kit to be quite tedious.

​@@deranged19 To be honest, most of the kit is pretty straightforward. The main issue was, with my kit, the engines didn't quite line up with the fuselage. I did a decent job of lining them up and sanding them down, but it still wasn't perfect. Luckily, they broke off when I moved house so I did a better job the second time around. Spray cans are a good option, there is a lot of surface area to cover. An airbrush is always going to be easier and cheaper in the long run.

@@TeaPoweredModels i hear you, that's why I'm opting for a newer kits like the Italeri A-10 Gulf war edition, but might cost double or triple the price of this kit. Anyhow, thanks for the insights! I'll be surely getting some experience with the Apache first. I'm just gonna wing it with what I have and enjoy. :D Keep up the work man. impressive stuff, you inspire noobs like me to finally pursue Aircraft modelling ( which I have been looking to take up since 2017)

The weather is done with oil paints. They are really great to use and have a very long working time.

Hey Juno! The brush was used to tidy up some of the edges that were a bit fuzzy, from airbrushing the camouflage. This was my second time painting this camo. The first time the masking tape pulled off half of the paint.

It's been a while since I edited this, I'll find the original file and let you know.

Thanks for the feedback! Sorry, you didn't enjoy the video and found it worthless. I will be coming back to model making in the next few months and making videos so I will definitely take this into consideration

sometimes , people just want some inspiration and not be bothered by ranting ... a timelapes with relaxing music does that well , no need to disrespet the author like that

Yeah! I ended up snapping it (by accident) and remaking a new one with some floristry wire and green stuff.

@@TeaPoweredModels I hope it turns out to be a perfect fit.

It’s a nice model! Yeah.... I had a accident with a cup of water and the decal sheet 😆😆

Hey, you can find all the colours and the conversions in the description. I used 8 in total but some I mixed a few odd colours! Thanks for watching

@@TeaPoweredModels did you use primer or you just go straight with the acrylic?

I did yes, I always wash with soapy water then prime.

It doesn’t I’m afraid. I would recommend buying some tamiya thin it’s my go to cement for most models now

@@TeaPoweredModels ok thanks

It is a fantastic kit! Treat your self to a new kit!

Thanks! I ended up cutting off the alignment pins as mine were heavily flashed and did not fit at all. Once I did that I super glued the whole track together and held it with a crocodile clip. I had already glued the end sprockets on and the top body so I had to try stretch the tracks on. It was a pain but it worked. In hind sight I would of left the end sprockets off till the tracks had set then added them

Love the A-10! It's also a great kit - don't forget to weigh down the nose!

@@TeaPoweredModels How much weight did you put in since I'm planning to do the same A 10 model?

I put about 20-30g of weight in and still not enough. I use steel ball bearing and in hindsight I would fill the whole front undercarriage (hidden part) and under the cockpit, with and much as I can.

Thank you, Friend! It is an awesome kit! I'm hoping to be back with a new video in a month or so!

There are a few reasons! I use the brush (Tamiya Thin) for smaller parts and for blending seams. And the nozzle (Revell Contacta) for larger parts that you won't see and need more strength. Because it's a lot less controllable and slightly more aggressive.

Not professional by far! I use a mixture of brushes - My general paint brushes I use Army Painter Brushes, for details work I use Artis Opus brushes and I also use a Winsor Newton 1 for slightly larger details. I would definitely recommend all of these brushes!

What glue did you use? Does it look so simple when gluing with the brush or nail polish brush?

It's a matte paint, but I put a Vallejo satin varnish over it.

Ok thanks! I just finished the revell model of the a10 and its lookin great!

Thank you! I would say it is! There are a few fiddly parts but otherwise it should be fine.

Thanks mate! Appreciate the feedback! This is was actually filmed pre-camera mount. It was done on a tripod attached to my monitor with some string haha! Some of my later videos are better. I will have a new better setup in a few months, before the COVID-19 I was due to move house and all my model making stuff was put in storage and is still there!

You should! It a quite cool kit!

Thank you for the comment - sorry for wasting your time.

What are you serious?

Dude don't listen to him your absolutely amazing good work@@TeaPoweredModels
