Douglas A-4P Skyhawk Fuerza Aérea Argentina 1/72 Airfix Plastic Model Kit Full Video Build

[@doctormig2709]

What do you guys think about my newest build?

[@predragstojakovic7331]

Kao i ostali-ODLICNO!

[@flankerlistscalemodels3240]

Great model 👍👍 great assembly

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you !)

[@sandrozeb]

Nice result. You are really good at free hand airbrushing. I guess too heavy handed on the yellow paint chipping. These are modern planes normally well maintained and sheltered. I doubt it would get that bad. However, as I said the final result is really nice and convincing... which is more of an achievement considering the 1:72 scale. Cheers,

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you ;) glad you like it ;)

[@Un_Americano_de_las_PUA]

Incredible production for the fighterplane we add the South-Americans 🇦🇷

[@marcblank3036]

A tribute to those brave Argentinian air knights. Not agreed with their government but their efforts were legendary and heroic for their country

[@doctormig2709]

Same here ;)

[@Un_Americano_de_las_PUA]

For us that we are from South-America 🇦🇷

[@cesarcui462]

Excelente, espero un Mirage III o Dagger que participaron en Malvinas. Saludos de Argentina.

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you.I have a full Malvinas war collection of models planned to build.Some of them will be built and fillmed for youtube.

[@Chilly_Billy]

Falklands. Britain won.

[@Un_Americano_de_las_PUA]

South-America fought with these fighters wing to wing in order to avoid detection South-America 🇦🇷

[@doctormig2709]

Thanks,I certainly try to be unique ans not a copy paste like many are.

[@goransudar212]

Nevjerovatno jučer sam počeo istoga Argentinca. Bravo prijatelju izvrstan je

[@doctormig2709]

Hvala ti Gorane.Cekam da vidim kako ces ti da uradis istu maketu.Obavezno mi posalji fotke gotove makete.

[@michelbarnatan2066]

Amazing job! Only “critique” is that the decals look as crisp fresh paint while the actual paint job supposed to be chipped.so the logic would be that those parts are chipped and worn off too. Anyhow, you are a pro! Love ur channel!

[@doctormig2709]

Thanks.Well according to what I have red on the subject so far was that those colors were actually peugeot and renault factory colors that were applied quickly and with no preperation at all just before the warnstarted and allegedly that was whatnit made the paint chip away while the factory fresh markings did not.Regards,Dragan

[@jotabe1984]

very very nice. i can only say the wear of the yellow paint might be a little too much, but for the rest it is amazing the level of detail. Hope to see the rest of the Malvinas conflict airplanes... Mirage family, both Harrier types and maybe some bombers like Camberra or Vulcan would be awesome! Cheers from Argentina

[@doctormig2709]

Thanks Juan.I am glad you like my work.I did over chipped the yellow paint.I just got carried away with it.It happens haha.I plan to do thr harrier gr.3 and shar frs.1.Also I have planned a seaking,mb339,pucara,Dagger and mirage IIIEA.I also have a A4Q and I plan on doing the A4C.I plan to do mirage 5Mara and the IaI finger.The cannbera I have to research and buy.And the vulcan is a must but too expencive and big for my current budget and display case.Oh and of course I have to get the super etendard.

[@jotabe1984]

@@doctormig2709 pretty complete collection! Keep the good work! Subscibed!

[@doctormig2709]

I will.I also need to get a turbo mentor and some other kits.I love the malvinas war era.And espcially the Argentinean air force.

[@mh53j]

@@doctormig2709 finding kits of Argentine aircraft from the Falklands War is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive. The Turbo Mentor, Pucara, Dagger and even the proper Mirage III are a challenge to locate. I plan on building most of mine "in-flight" so extensive cockpit/wheel well details are not necessary. Some of the older FROG (Canberra) and Revell (Mirage) kits will suffice. Even locating Airfix's relatively new Skyhawk is becoming a problem.

[@doctormig2709]

You are correct.I still havent bought the trubo mentor.There will be a new mirage IIIEA from modelsvit in a mont or two in 72 scale. Regards,Dragan

[@rafanav6719]

Nice Job. 👏👏👏👏👌👍

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you ;)

[@henrysanchez4810]

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you Luis.Indeed it is an awesome kit.

[@ricardoraulmontero5279]

[@garyhunt4032]

I've just done the same one

[@doctormig2709]

I hope you had a great time with it like.I did

[@Appiann]

Excellent! Let me guess next one - Sea Harrier!

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you.Actually no.That one will wait a bit ;)

[@silver082]

No problem with superglue + lead? I heard that they tend to react over time, ruining the model.

[@doctormig2709]

Nope no problem.at all

[@elsepufreerider]

Muy buen laburo, yo lo dejaría un poco más cochino por abajo...

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you ;)

[@tobiasmontece1171]

Mig q tiempo te toma armar una maqueta. Excelente trabajo.

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you :)

[@Ralle1968]

Very nice!👍👍👍

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@luto2000]

Hi! Big fan of your builds. I wanted to ask you why you use super glue in some parts and cement in others. How do you decide which is better for what Part? Thanks!

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you Ludwig :) I mai ly us3 siperglue as filler.I tend to glue the windshields with superglue so It can dou le as a filler and achieve a stronger bond.

[@JedenSiedemDwa]

Nice done! Looks very good! ;)

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you ;)

[@DioramasPoa]

Show my friend. I will follow your channel from now on. Strong hug

[@doctormig2709]

Thanks for the support. I really appreciate it.

[@carinaelisabetblanco6674]

Para tu próximo video puedes hacer un súper etendard Argentino

[@doctormig2709]

I will do it for sure.I just have to buy the kit and decals first :D :D :D

[@fabianenriquebuontempo4452]

Excelente trabajo, pero los A4 que participaron en Malvinas eran las versiones A4B y A4C de la Fuerza Aérea y los A4Q de la Marina... Saludos desde Argentina

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you Fabian. cheers ;)

[@danieltarrio9402]

A4 P es la designación de Douglas para el A4 argentino, ya que eran b y c reacondicionado, localmente la FAA los denominaba b y c

[@thomaskolb8785]

Superglue for the windshield is interesting - have you never had the transparent part fog up? Also, after doing the hairspray weathering, do you wash off the remaining hairspray before appying the gloss varnish? Beautiful build, by the way!

[@doctormig2709]

Yeah it is.Well of courrse I have ut not in the past 15-20 years.The key is to wipe all of the fingerprints from the part.Use small amounts of superglue at a time.And I always dip thrle parts on future/pledge/pronto for inprooved shine.This also eliminates the chance for fogging up.

[@thomaskolb8785]

DOCTOR MiG Thanks for answering! I will definitely try it in some upcoming build of mine! Keep up the excellent work!

[@doctormig2709]

Np at all.I am glad I could be of any help.Cheers

[@TheModelorian]

Great work. The super glue is finally back for fixing the fuselage halfs. I already missed it in your previous videos. 😂 But to be honest, I'm using it more often since I saw it in your builds. Cheers!

[@doctormig2709]

Thanks! I am glad I could be of any help. It is a really good way to work as soon as you master the basics.

[@antoniomorren9755]

❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you.I am glad you like.it

[@swing.wing_singh]

As usual another amazing masterpiece. Fantastic work. The chipping looks great. What do you thin your ink wash with? Water or something else? Also what kind of ink do you use? Is it the sinple ink used in an ink pen or some special kind of ink? Thanks

[@doctormig2709]

Thank you Sherbir.The ink I use is rotring rapidograph ink.I dilute it with watet.It is really easy to prepare and work with.

[@АлексейРутковский-е8ъ]

220я шкурка на 72ом масштабе разрывает в клочья не только пластик, но и мое сердце... Это буквально ка машину "полернуть" щебнем...

And yet in the end it isnt visible ;)

[@nenadpetkovski1563]

Odličan! :D

[@doctormig2709]

Hvala :)

[@BennyCFD]

Yah........OK. One a scale from 1 to 7 I'll give this build an 8+
