Great stuff as always! I have the marauder bomber on my wishlist, so it's really nice to see how it comes together.

[@Beyondthetabletop]

Thanks, glad to hear you're enjoying the series. It's a stunning model.

[@Swindondruid2]

I am glad I never bought one of these - the way they do the resin is very bad, the windows for example. But thanks for the video, it confirms my choice to do one from scratch (well, from a 1:48 scale plastic bomber).

[@Beyondthetabletop]

If i'm honest, it's actually a very good kit and one of the easier FW kits to build. I took a few extra precautions by pinning the wings in place. The window's are an odd one and fiddly to install at the end, but they do look really good. I can now see why they haven't switched to resin as there wouldn't be much room to have the glass thickness increased without having the redesign the kit.

[@halkeye20]

is this one of those Aeronautica Imperialis models?

[@Beyondthetabletop]

No, this is the original Forgeworld resin model so it's in 40k 28mm scale... It's WAY bigger.

[@halkeye20]

They still sell those?

[@Beyondthetabletop]

@@halkeye20 Yep, it's available from the Forgeworld website.

[@Beyondthetabletop]

@@halkeye20 Yep.

[@Uncle_Mel]

Don't make me wait another 2 month on the conversion part eh? ;-)

[@Beyondthetabletop]

I'm trying to get done two videos a month, this series being 1 video and the other being tutorials/showcase videos. Hopefully it won't take too long to finish the series.

[@Uncle_Mel]

@@Beyondthetabletop np, I'll see it pop up in my feed when it comes out ;)

[@dragonkingofthestars]

humm, sadly teh body apears solid so no way to make a AC-130 conversion out of it.

[@RosieJonesRules]

Shame this channel died ;_;

[@Beyondthetabletop]

You'll be pleased to know It's not dead at all, I just took a hiatus during summer which ended up being much longer than planned due to work and other commitments. However I'm back to editing the next video. You can also see regular updates on Facebook and Instagram where I'm still posting daily.

[@Magnanimoose]

Those "instructions" are an absolute embarrassment. How did anyone ever think that was okay? I get that these kits are aimed at a more experienced modeler but geez.

[@Beyondthetabletop]

Yeah, they're pretty basic. The Forgeworld team was very bare bones back in the day when they produced these, but you're right, they're aimed at advanced modellers so the expectation is you should be able to work it out...which isn't always as easy as you'd think.
