1/700 HMS Prince of Wales - Flyhawk

[@panzer-meister]

It's excellently fine work. The base kit is very detailed which doesn't looks like 1/700 scale. Of course, PE set is absolutely fine. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much!

Great build my friend! I almost purchase this kit too but then I thought "what if I first try on doing better AFV vehicles?" And here am I, doing a full interior Tiger 1 hahah

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I have plans also to build a full Interior Tiger 1 in the future!

[@ericbadia5]

@@KumaModels nice! I bought it from eBay for 40€!! My Tiger 1 is from Rye Field Model so very very well purchase

[@KumaModels]

That’s a good price! I also got my Tiger 1 from Rye Field Model, it’s the Wittmann’s Tiger Early production version.

@@KumaModels these fly hawk kits seem to be the kings of 1/700 nowadays

I agree!

just bought the Dec 1941 version of this, really looking forward to it. hopefully it'll end up being just half as good as yours.

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I’m sure yours will turn out amazing as well!

[@MrCouchmen]

Excellent work.

Thank you very much!

[@renzcaesar1412]

Cool build

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much!

[@andredegraaf1643]

I will be attempting the same model but just the basic version. I love 1/700 scale but you need the touch of a watchmaker. My hands are not as steady as yours are. Very informative and nice work.

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much!

[@lukesanders8258]

Superb build! Please can I ask what tweezers you were using for the etch work?

[@KumaModels]

They’re the curved tip tweezers from Border craft tools. I’m not sure if they still sell them.

[@nimofy6336]

Great build, also really like the weathering. And there I got a question, what thinner and what clearcoat do you use so that when removing the excess wash you don't rip the paint of, got this problem so I can use tamiya Paneline only very carefully! But amazing build this is :)

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I use Tamiya X-22 clear thinned with Mr. Color Leveling Thinner. Ratio is 1:2 (paint : thinner). I let the clear coat dry at least 24 hours before I do any panel wash. Then I use Tamiya Enamel thinner (X-20) to remove any excess.

[@nimofy6336]

@@KumaModels thank you very much, I'll try it on my next build :D

[@godbye753]

very awesome model my man. did you consider doing the camouflage color scheme on the model? Prince of wales had some pretty unique camo in Dec 1941. Either way it looks awesome

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! I considered it, but I decided to depict her during the Battle of the Denmark Strait.

[@godbye753]

@@KumaModels Yeah that makes sense. It will certainly be a great addition to match with your Prinz Eugen and Bismarck! Does this mean that the Mighty Hood is next? Keep up the good work.

[@KumaModels]

Yup as soon as Flyhawk releases their Hood I’ll be sure to get one!

[@godbye753]

@@KumaModels hopefully that happens soon, Hood is by far my favorite ship (well cruiser I guess), Really look forward to seeing you work on it.

[@deusexmachina6260]

A great build! Very precise work! Where did you take an anti-air rockets to replace turret pom-poms?

[@KumaModels]

Thank you very much! The kit already has the anti-air rocket in the kit. This was the battle of the Denmark straight version.

[@deusexmachina6260]

@@KumaModels I see… I have december 1941 version, so I don’t have it…

[@northcoast261]

10:28 What is that green gum/putty you use to stick small parts onto Tamiya bottles and paint/detail them? I’m interested in seeing if I can use it too.

[@KumaModels]

That’s Faber Castle Tack-it. It’s similar to Blu-tack.

[@northcoast261]

@@KumaModels Thanks!

[@jermasus]

Thats the first batch version that comes with the bonus badge right?

[@KumaModels]

Yes it does include a bonus badge.

[@joshuariddensdale2126]

I have Repulse, Hood, Bismarck, and Prinz Eugen already. I've been looking far and wide for Prince Of Wales to complete both sets. Tamiya's kit is waterline only, so I want a full hull version. I'm looking forward to ordering this kit. Does it come with a color paint chart like Trumpeter's models?

[@KumaModels]

Yes the color paint chart is on the last page of the instruction manual.

[@MaquetteTv]

Nice result and extremely easy to see but i think so different in reality with the photo etch 😂 , good job man

The flag in the typical Atlantic gael-force wind should be ripping taut, not hanging like that.

[@adhamafiq6772]

Should make repulse snd put them side by side !!!

[@KumaModels]

Maybe in the future!
