I love to watch all the fun you're having with this little model. A good warm up to get you back into building. I like the Eduard 1/32 models I'm seeing with their awsome decales. Can't wait to find them back in the stores. You made me inter my models and it was fun to see just how much the spectator's loved the work. So, get them to the local meets and have even more fun meeting the people who share your hobby. It will warm your heart.

I absolutely love the Tamiya E3. Builds nicely. You can get a great build out of the box, or, if you want a challenge, there's plenty of aftermarket. SBS makes an awesome resin cockpit that is basically a drop in replacement.

That’s coming along nicely. I use some styrene that I fashioned into a blunt blade to help get the decals down into the panel lines. I also put Tamiya decal adhesive on the model before I put the decal on & then Tamiya mark fit. That seems to really suck the decals down. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

Good video. I’ve got the G6 in the stash….one day it’ll fall down from the shelf to the bench! I wanted to correct you a bit in the earlier part of the video when you were sanding the primer on the ghost seam. You stated that the areas that sanded to bare plastic were “higher” than the seam filler. This is false. The reason why you started sanding through to plastic is because you were sanding the sides of the primer as much as the top since you were using your thumb and not a sanding block. What was occurring was your thumb was flexing over the higher seam filler and sanding it all at the same time. A sanding block would have sanded the higher seam filler before getting down to the original primer coat. Regardless, the final outcome was nice. Just wanted to make that statement for some newer modelers!

I note your comments about people seeking the exact colours for models. I don't think that is too important either because, as modelers, we do pre-shading, post-shading, washes, pin washes, panel line washes, oils and dry brushing plus gloss and matt varnishing. I think all this is to enhance the "depth" of the model. If we were able to enlarge these models to full size the painting would probably not look right hence there is a massive scaling effect, which I am sure applies to colours also.

Even if the clear coat doesn’t make a difference with the decals, it’s a protective coat against the decal setting solution. I’ve had Microsol interact with paint in a bad way.

Hey Sean, when that putty sticks in the gear legs holes…get a can of that compressed air (those duster cans), turn it upside down, and gently squeeze the trigger so liquid comes out. It will harden/freeze the putty making it easier to get out instead of stretching on you.
@scottlinder9882 Жыл бұрын
I really enjoy these videos, it’s great to see you back in action. That putty looks real similar to Ammo’s putty. With the Ammo putty I noticed that if you pull it apart slowly it strings, but if you pull it fast then it breaks clean. Maybe that will help next time pulling it out of the wheel well. Just pull it out a little aggressively and it will not string. Keep up the great work and thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

When you mentioned the difficulty of removing carrier film from some decals, I looked at my F-106 and the "US AIR FORCE" decals on both sides of the fuselage. The decals were aftermarket from Micro-Scale that I'd had for about 6-7 years before I used them. Luckily, Micro-Set and Micro-Sol did the job and I have very little, almost un-noticeable silvering. I don't think I'd even try to cut around all those letters. Your Mojo must not have gone very far. Looks like you found it, to me.

Sean, i really like that you do again these more tutorial and way longer videos. Of course we have seen you CA and pigment filler and all the other little secrets. But i dont mind to see this again. Your videos have never been 100% just about the individual model, i watched them for the process. So thank you for being back - just in the old style. I totally agree with you regarding color accuracy. I remember how detailed you have been about the F 35 and its grey-glitter-metallic color sheme. One dont get it right until you get the very same (classified) colors. Its NOT about the pigments. Last but not least: i have doubts that germans (i can tell, im one) were so accurate during WWII with their colors. They probably smashe one the plane what have been left in their hands.

Have you ever tried using a vinegar/warm water solution for soaking the decals? I haven’t tried it myself yet, but I saw this on Rob Pattinson’s Chanel. It kind of serves as microset. I was also wondering if you ever use solvacet?
