I was watching the beautiful 747s at Frankfurt today and thought it was time to build a model of one. Found the Revell kit and also saw these old livery decals - then realised it was the plane I was watching! Your video will be a huge help when I get started on it. Thanks.

Cool, my first Revell plane was also Lufthansa, I was 10 years old, but since I was a child and did not know how to take care of my plane, I ended up destroying it, and now that I am 15 years old, I put it back together, good video, Greetings from Mexico

Not cleaning the paint off the seams before gluing wing and fuselage halves together? What kind of glue are you using? Will any liquid cement work like that?

[@AileronVideos]

Haven't had any problems with the color as the glue dissolves the color. We are using Revell Contacta Professional

[@greatlakesproductions]

Ein wunderschönes Modell! Welchen Airbrush benutzt du? Ich habe bisher die Druckluftdosen von revell benutzt, allerdings funktionieren die sehr schlecht…

[@AileronVideos]

Dankeschön! Ein Airbrush System mit Kompressor kann ich sehr empfehlen. Dieses Modell habe ich mit einer 10€ Airbrush von Conrad gebaut, die es allerdings nicht mehr gibt. Inzwischen nutze ich die Harder und Steenbeck Ultra. Als Kompressor hab ich den Fengda FD-186. Einen großen Einfluss auf das Airbrush Ergebnis haben aber auch die Farben, habe früher nur Revell Aqua genutzt aber die kann man eigentlich gar nicht schön glänzend und glatt lackieren.

[@Kitsune_NorwayTheCat]

What was it that you put on the plane so that those separation lines will not be seen at minute 3:47?

[@crzytypr7424]

Does the paint come with the model?

[@AileronVideos]

Nope. The kit only includes the model. You have to buy glue, colors and tools seperately

[@greatlakesproductions]

Klasse Video! Warum wird die Innenseite des Flugzeugs schwarz bemalt?

[@AileronVideos]

Vielen Dank! Die Innenseite bemalen wir schwarz damit Tageslicht nicht durchschimmern kann. Wenn man die Innenseite weiß lässt wirkt der Flieger "künstlicher".

[@greatlakesproductions]

Danke für deine Antwort! Und außen mit weiß grundieren? Ich bin noch Neuling...

[@AileronVideos]

@@greatlakesproductions Kein Problem, jeder fängt doch mal an :) Die YT war der erste Flieger den wir grundiert haben, alle anderen Modelle (diverse A320, A350, 747, 777) haben wir ohne Grundierung direkt weiß lackiert. Vorteil der Grundierung ist, dass man evtl Unebenheiten besser sieht, die Flieger sehen aber auch ohne ganz gut aus :) Ist also kein Muss für den Anfang, haben auch viele Modelle ohne Grundierung. Falls du noch mehr Fragen hast einfach melden :)

[@Zurka10]

Very nice work! I'm thinking about starting to build airplane models. Could you tell how much would it cost if you are starting from zero modelling equipment? 😄

[@AileronVideos]

Thanks a lot! Cost depends a lot on the amount of Detail and realism you want to achive. You could just leave the white plastic as the fuselage color for a new LH livery for example and just paint the blue on the tail. It'll turn out cheap but of course you will see the joint of the two fuselage halves and the glue and plastic turn yellow over time. Here a list of what we would consider as the basic equipment: - Colors: each about 3€ and you need 5-10 different tones, depending on the model: 15-30€ If you use Revell Aqua color you can use water to thin the color, otherwise you'll need a thinner that costs about 10€. - Glue: We like the Revell Contacta Professional, about 4€ - Putty: we started with Revell Putty (5€) but now moved to Mr White putty (4€), its sold out everywhere however... - Sanding paper, we buy that at our local hardware store and they cost about 1€ per sheet. We have 320, 480 and 600 grid papers. - Brushes: When painting small Details, a fine brush can be helpful. You don't need brushes from a modelling company, you probably have some laying around. - Boxcutter: You probably have one laying around too. - Masking Tape: We use Tamiya tape but Revell's tape is good too. They vary in width and cost between 2 and 5€. - Model: Depending on the aircraft between 10 and 40€ - Airbrush: You could brush the big surfaces but spraying them will look way better. There is a starter kit for around 40€ from Revell which we used to paint our first model. It uses a gas bottle however that has to be replaced quite frequently. If you don't know whether you want to build more models that one is a good choice but if you want to build more models an airbrushing set with a compressor will be a good investment.

[@АндрейТарханов-б7х]

Ну и зачем было всё в нутри красить чёрным и вклеивать окна если всё закрашено и заклеено декалями?!

[@AileronVideos]

The aircraft is painted black on the inside to prevent light shining through the model when it is standing in the sun for example. The windows are glued in to give the decals more support that they don't fall in the window holes.
