EDUARD 1/72 MIG15 FULL BUILD

[@joeokabayashi8669]

Voice narration is best. Voice allows viewer to play in background and react to word cues to look up from what viewer is doing otherwise.

[@josecesar1639]

Good painting and weathering, quite realistic.

[@fubarmodelyard1392]

Yes narration is much better. The Vallejo worked better than I thought. Great job

[@AlexModeling]

hey brother, how are things? :)

[@fubarmodelyard1392]

AlexModeling enjoying the summer heat. Working on a few things. What's the flow improver made with? The non air Vallejo can be pretty thick. How's everything on your side of the ocean

[@joebloggs5510]

I thoroughly enjoyed comparing this video and Plasmo ' s of the exact same kit. You both have incredible model building skills, with different approaches that are fascinating to compare. Plasmo stuffed up his paint, which surprised me very much, yet he rescued his model, he weighted his nose, but you didn't have the balls to do the same, but I liked your burned tail end, it very much added interest to the model. Overall I found myself admiring your fighter over his, but you are both exceptional scale modelers. Wonderful, Thank You.

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you... I just didn t had the balls .. cause i was having so much fun that i forgot!!! And thats the truth

[@joebloggs5510]

@@AlexModeling You are a good sport and took that in the fun vein in which it was meant. I shall subscribe to your channel, if I haven't already, as I have also seen another of your posts and I am smitten with the quality of your work. I must say though that this was your first post that I watched and took it for granted that you narrated your videos. You were so natural at it, but when I saw another I was missing your spoken narrative, although your written description of what was transpiring kept me in the loop. I think one of your other commenter's brought out that you could easily utilise both to good effect, speech complementing the written word, I wholeheartedly agree with him. Your work and craftsmanship is in the stratosphere, I shall enjoy your posts. Thank You.

[@jonathanhudak2059]

First time seeing one of your videos come loves how your MiG-15 turned out, really, really nice! Am impressed with how the Vallejo metallic turned out as well especially for a water based acrylic.... nice!

[@The_Modeling_Underdog]

15s had a layer of silver paint of excellent quality covering the airframe at the time of the Korean War. So the red paint chipping from poor adhesion is kind of a no-no. Also, sorry to say, the intake lip got glued upside down. The protrusion on the lip is for the gun camera and should go upwards. Thing is, the notch which you now have on the upper side is the front edge of the wheel well, which fouls the overall sit of the landing bay doors. Oh, well. Tit for tat, and late to the rescue. Stay safe out there, Alex.

[@chrisbolton2500]

Nice build, Alex........! You've sold me on the idea, I'm definatly going to try 1/72nd scale. The Eduard kit didn't seem to lack anything in the way of detail, despite the smaller scale. Really enjoyed the 'voice over' presentation as well.

[@jethrocathcart7452]

Voice over is good. I love the mig 15. I've bought two edaurd mig 15's for my stash. Great work.

[@rodneyjaswinsky6480]

Alex you make this look so easy great video abit different with you talking in it and i enjoyed listening to you talk about how you did it pls keep it up.

[@davidbutterfield2949]

Nice little kit. Videos are much better with your narrative, makes them a bit more personal.👍🏻🇦🇺

[@resin_Hd]

Looks great! I too am a big fan of the new Vallejo metallics.

[@FineKits]

Excellent video. I like the commentary as well!

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you!

[@bpezzano1]

Great build, Brother! I really like the Vallejo metal color paints. I used them on the P-38 . And my dad's F-86. As usual, great job!

[@the-primered-thumb]

Brilliant video, and what a beautiful model Alex, well done sir, 😎👍

[@melmoore6885]

Yet another great video Alex, loved the commentary, probably the way to go in future.

[@erico3378]

Great build! I have this same model in the Profipack and I'm excited to get started.

[@f-4bphantom591]

Awesome build Alex the paint work is also awesome my friend I'll have to look for one to build now. have a great day

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you!

[@TheCld1981]

I did a weekend edition of the yak3 by eduard and I felt it was one problem after another. You made that kit look easy.

[@AlexModeling]

Its a great kit believe me

[@TheCld1981]

I'm working on trumpeters 1/72 shenjang j-31. It's been a great build its self.

[@hondansx1000]

lovely work, and great idea to add the narration. I had this idea that once i've gotten back into model making doing something a long the lines of this, but also maybe talking about the aircraft and its history a long with some information/history about the squadron markings the model is gonna be painted in

[@ArmourEmpire]

Really nice step by step. Good work there Alex. Enjoy this style of vid mate

[@AlexModeling]

thank you Mark!

[@frankassis2684]

Great job with this one! Humm, I've got the UTI Profipack in my stash. I feel inspired to bring it down to the bench.

[@Drewsmodels]

Nice Alex! Thanks for the review!

[@stuartbremner9680]

Stunning build. Like this format of video 👍. Have inspired me to get this kit, may go for the profi pack kit 😀

[@vavo4902]

Very nice build. I did this one as well, but with Czechoslovakian markings.

[@brianrussell2083]

Buetiful job on your Mig-15 and yes I think it's cool to hear the builders voice but it is totally up to you if you want to narrate please keep modeling and yes as you always say ALWAYS with a smile my friend

[@Zig_no1]

Awesome stuff Alex been looking forward this.

[@marcranger4596]

Please continue with the voice over. Makes the videos more interesting

[@AlexModeling]

I will! Thank you

[@allanjohnson3731]

great build and paintwork alex ..and its good to hear your voice :) love your videos :)

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you Allan! :)

[@shaneluby169]

It is good to here your voice, your English is excellent! As always, your build is excellent too

[@type2280303]

that is really a very nice plane, turned out absolutely stunning Alex ;-) always nice to watch your videos

[@cy2087]

Alex, I never tried the combination of Tamiya White Putty and their Laquer Thinner before, but I will now. I've also never done an Eduard kit before but that's another thing that's going to change now. I love the way you seem to have replicated the Alclad method here with Vallejo's which are one of my favorites. As you said, the experiment turned out quite nicely indeed. I'm goign to have to look at a kit review to see if the seatbelts are part of the kit or if you scratched them up on your own. I'm not sure if the MiG-15 actually had a HUD but I really don't care. It's an added detail that looks great so I'll probably put one in the MiGs I'm planning on doing. Thanks again man. Next views will be of the 1/72 F-86 Sabre you did, then the 1/48 Pz III.

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you! The seat belts are a decal. Eduardo kits are Awsome and it even brings decaled seat belts with great quality

[@MiguelBRScalemodelsDioramas]

Great job. I like the weathering work

[@AlexModeling]

Obrigado Miguel! Abraço

[@jbll36]

Hi Alex. Great job on the build. Good to hear your voice again. Enjoy the day. Ray L.

[@FreakazoidakaBen]

Nice Alex, Great Work in this small scale! I enjoy every new project from you. Well done my Friend. ✌👌👍

[@johnreremoana9564]

Mate! l do find watching these building model kitsets videos very educating and amazed at the same time, cool!👍

[@TacticalJackalope]

Nicely done Alex!

[@AlexModeling]

Thanks! If you think you need what we talkes i will do it NO PROBLEM! :)

[@niltonmarques571]

Perfeito...perfeito....PERFEITOOO!!!!

[@AlexModeling]

obrigado... obrigado... OBRIGADOOOO!!! eheheheh!!!

[@santospaulo68]

grande abraco amigo o video esta 5 estrelas espero ver mais review de materiais optima ideia ate breve

[@PanzergrauModels]

Fantastic kit from Eduard, isn't it? I just published my build on their Profipack edition. It looks that if the modeler pays a modicum of care, this kit builds excellently every single time :) I'm backing you with the flow improver - It helps a lot, specially "sticky" acrylics like Tamiya. However, lately I'm thinning my Tamiyas with Mr. levelling thinner ;) Good build as usual. The sound level is great but you should process the bass output a little - it makes the voice sound almost "broken". Other than that, fantastic build and fantastic video! Congrats!

[@gdaniel953]

Nice work, Comander! Jeje... It's beutifull this airplane!!!

[@DarkSide-q6g]

Good job👍👍👍

[@emilbt7588]

Awsome!!! WITH A SMILE

[@JohnBarrow1961]

Cool plane.

[@peterzozvolena6825]

Nice, really nice work but small detail... Front air intake you glued upside down. :)

[@BobBuesking]

Great job, as always! I enjoy hearing you in person, and i was wondering how well the metallics worked, compared with the A-K Extreme Metals.

[@AlexModeling]

well AK are laquer.. and Vallejo acrilic... diferent a bit.. AK is a bit more metal but.. its good just the same

[@marianogio9401]

Muy bonito Alex. Me gusta tu estilo.

[@AlexModeling]

Muchas Gracias!

[@SmallSoldier]

Looks great Alex. How did you manage to not get paint inside the cockpit? I noticed you didn't mask it. Yes the narration is a good choice as it makes it easier to understand whats going on.

[@marceloalejandro1190]

gran trabajo, eres muy prolijo. veo que sos fanatico de las pinturas vallejo, son buenas?? te ganaste un suscriptor

[@timfontenot2911]

I prefer to listen, rather than reading. It allows me multitask.

[@panagiotismiralis2054]

Olá, Alex. Parabéns pela montagem do Mig-15!!! Muito bom. Estou recomeçando no plastimodel e espero chegar nesse ponto de perfeição. Grande abraço!!!!

[@LHJ1999]

Looks great! I need to try the flow improver, as i have had some issues with vallejo overspray and clogging. What psi do you prefer with them?

[@AlexModeling]

20 psi give or take.... depends of the dilution

[@LHJ1999]

AlexModeling thanks!

[@marcranger4596]

What was the reason you didn't mask off the cockpit during the painting process?

[@AlexModeling]

I felt capable of not making a mess.. confident enough to do it like so!

[@ScaleModellingHellas]

Really nice video. Can i ask you what camera do you use and where is it standing?

[@Ryker45]

That's a beauty Alex, I have that kit in my stash but it won't turn out as good as yours

[@AlexModeling]

Hello Steven! Nice to see you! :)

[@allanmartinez1190]

Sir, What kind of cloth are you using to wipe down the model with? Thank you for your time Sincerely Allan

[@AlexModeling]

A micro fiber cloth

[@gnashings]

MUCH prefer the voice commentary, for a number of reasons: easier to concentrate on what you're building, more engaging, I think one can say more verbally than in a brief caption, captions hard to read on mobile (small screen.... ok ok... old eyes lol), plus, you're a likeable person - comes through in the voice over:)

[@AlexModeling]

Thank you! Speech in future... and thank you for commenting! :D

[@allanmartinez1190]

Hello Sir I'm sorry to bother you I just wanted to know from start to finish how many new #11 blades do you go thru in various scale models that you build? Thank you for your time Sincerely Allan

[@AlexModeling]

Maybe 4.. one for scraping one for masking one for cuting decals and an extra just in case

[@31071959ful]

Mi enhorabuena como siempre,. estimado Alex. Este video no tiene desperdicio muy por el contrario...entretenido, didáctico y muy ilustrativo. Al final aprenderé a la fuerza el inglés contigo ja, ja, ja. Un fuerte abrazo amigo y hasta otro video...cuídate.

[@AlexModeling]

Saludos compañero ! :)

[@frankassis2684]

The voice over is much better than text. When you are reading you miss a lot of the building sequence. And don't worry Alex, your English is improving with each video you release. You've almost lost the "Mourinho" accent altogether! ;-)

[@AlexModeling]

Mourinho Accent!!!😂😂😂😂 Thanks! 😊

[@johnrandle1337]

Great video. Voice over is better

[@fzijlstra2906]

Nice build as always. One question, what did you use to remove the vallejo wash with? I found them quick drying and difficult to remove. Thnx in advance!

[@MrRon6977]

Great little build. I knew you were going to say something about the weight in the nose of the plain...hahaha. I actually like it better when you talk during the video, because its hard enough for me to concentrate on the build and read what your typing. Its hard enough for me to concentrate on one thing let a lone on two things at one time. lol The colors you did on the exhaust worked very well. It really turned out excellent.

[@AlexModeling]

hey Ron! great! thanks for helping me... comments it is!

[@allanmartinez1190]

Sir whenever you wipe down the model with a lens cleaner cloth do you use a new one every time you build a new kit? Because I've seen in some of your videos paint stains. Sincerely Allan

[@AlexModeling]

the paint stains you see, and in some videos you DO see it are stains but after the cloth is cleaned on a washing mashine, somo paints just don t get out but that doesn t want to say that its goingto stain the model... its not

[@Digitalis-z5o]

Where do you get your vallejo paints from and how do you mash the colours ?

[@allanmartinez1190]

Sir I hate to bother you, but I just wanted to know is it best to wear a pair of gloves when you're handling the model weather you're gluing or painting your models? Sincerely Allan

[@AlexModeling]

that depends Allan, i sometimes use, other to be honest i forget or don t want to. sometimes i don t want to paint and dirt my hands and use it.. were i really use it is when i am working on the transparent pieces,, clear canopies ans such! also on metalics... use also latex gluves on metal paints

[@padelisgk8126]

Plz help... i really wanna love this kit and im getting my second uti in a few moments....am i the only one who thinks these kits have MAaaaJor flaw in the front fuselage/nose part ,,as the cockpit just wont let the nose close up....ive read all good reviews and not one has referred to this problem....

[@fabinhominiaturas6746]

excelente;

[@stevemahalko1146]

Alex...or anyone else that may have a solution. just got a Badger 350-3 for Fathers Day. I put the adapter on the Propellent can...made the adjustment...put thinned 4-1 Aycrlic paint in bottle ...air line is secure...go to paint …….nothing but air coming out of the nozzle. !! Made numerous adjustments on can adapter and needle. took it apart... cleaned everything.. put together and PHFFFFTT !!! nothing but air..no paint plenty of propellent but NO PAINT !! what say anyone ???

[@AlexModeling]

Have u checked if all pieces are well screwed on its places? I mean sometimes i don t screw the back screw on the Paint thickness regulator on the back of the Airbrush and nothing comes out

[@X02switchblades]

Better to talk over than write Even better to talk and write when you can.

[@TheBetomacedo]

Muito bom... Se for portugues me entenderá

[@shungite4953]

Nice vid! Btw will you do a queen Mary full build? Or you did it already

[@AlexModeling]

Sargent i haven t done one yet... if i get my hands on a kit of such subject i Will proceed imediatly SIR! (SALUTE)😂😂

[@shungite4953]

AlexModeling lmao thanks 😂

[@AlexModeling]

Sir! (And salute again) half turn and... walk awayyyyy... 😂😂😂😂

[@shungite4953]

AlexModeling 😂😂😂😂

[@danielbrandao3166]

Your English is excelent, but in portuguese is easier for me hahha just kidding, awsome building congrats

[@AlexModeling]

obrigado Daniel!

[@iksmuch]

In Poland this is a SBLim

[@Digitalis-z5o]

What grit of sandpaper do you use ?

[@AlexModeling]

800, 600, and 1200

[@Digitalis-z5o]

Thanks you

[@Merluso415]

∞/10 jejeje cool :D

[@c4tze]

get this ultra thin brush on glue pls

[@theleninist4272]

I must say i was disappointed with the Eduard kit , after waiting for ages for a good 1/72 Mig 15 the amount of filler that is needed is just not good enough for this day and age , when will some one make a version of this aircraft that fits together perfectly .
