@@vadymkalyuzhnyy3027 thank you for watching the video & I’m not going to apologize for the low quality for the following reasons: 1) Most of the footage was shot using an iPhone 8. Yes there are newer phones on the market but I’m an unemployed freelance artist & a new phone is out of my budget especially here in South Africa where phones are imported & therefore cost 2,5 times more than in the USA. 2) As mentioned my budget is very limited & that includes purchasing data that will enable me upload to my channel therefore uploading at 720p is economically affordable for me at this time. However if you wish to contribute financially or donate a newer iPhone model, I can provide my PayPal link. It would be greatly appreciated & I would be very grateful too. For me I see this as a positive because you watched the video & left a comment which increases my rating with the KZbin algorithm. Thank you.

@@jr7392 thank you for watching this video. I appreciate your comment. The Mirage iiiCZ has always been a favorite of mine & I had the opportunity to witness it in combat operations during my deployment in Angola 1988. So I’ve always been inspired to build a Mirage iiiCZ. I will build another Mirage iii but with a Natural Metal Finish. There’s also plans to build a Mirage F-1 CZ or AZ which will be a step-by-step video build.

@@b-creative_dbn I commented before I realized you are from Durban, so your choice of colors makes sense! I also like the F1 Mirage but the only one in 1/48 is the defunct Kitty Hawk kit. Angola in 1988 must have been "interesting" to say the least. I hope that you stay well, the times are a lot stranger than they were back then.

Hi, great tips. I also use this method and I'm very satisfied with it. Just one remark, I belive we should not place the models in contact withe the box, as you do with the plane tail, because any bump will be transmitted to the model.

Thank you for your comment @rogeriofernandes8867. I don’t usually place models up against the sides but I was planning to demonstrate packing the tank & round base in the same container. However I soon realized that the container would not be big enough to do so & did those as a separate segment.

Great paints Brendon.I’ve never used it with the old paintbrush - I usually take an old piece of t-shirt and rub it with that. Works quite well - I feel like when you clear coat it you lose the effect though unfortunately.

Great technique, have been using quite awhile. Have gotten rid of all those ‘Spot Putty’ type fillers. Two tips I use. Most of the time, I’ll wet sand the area. Works the treat for me. The other is to use a Sharpie, Marks-a-Lot, El Marko, marker to out line the area where the Super Glue is. Sand till the marker ink is gone. Job done. You can remove any traces of ink with 98/99% alcohol.

Won't acetone melt the plastic, though?
@b-creative_dbn6 ай бұрын
@simonmowatt Thank you for your comment. Yes acetone can melt plastic but only if you flood the area with it or if you soak the plastic in a container of acetone. In the video I suggest dipping a cotton swab or cloth into the acetone & wipe the area. The acetone will evaporate from the surface quickly which is not enough time to melt or distort the plastic.

Andre it’s called the Marbling or Mottling technique. You first apply a black primer or base colour. Then with your first colour you airbrush irregular squiggles within the panel lines. Final step is to airbrush 2 light coats of that colour to unify & blend everything together. It’s the first time I’ve used this technique & although not as good as I’ve seen with other modellers, I’m happy with the final result.
