F-86D "Dog Sabre" : Rapid Video Build : Revell : 1/48 Scale Model : Part 1 fo 2

[@ericmcintosh5608]

Thank you for this beautiful build! I've never seen an F-86D featured as a scale model. My dad flew the F-86D in the mid to late 1950's and later transitioned to the F-102 and A-1 Skyraider. His stories from this period inspired me to get into aviation. At 90, he still shares great stories from his Air Force days.

That little triangle of the "bar" of the national insignia out on the slat is such a cool detail.

Great build. Very well presented vid. Techniques, hints and tips are explained in way that makes it easy for a novice to approach a build without too much trepidation.

Absolutely fantastic as always. Gives me motivation to make the time to get back into the hobby.

I use auto parts lacquer thinner to clean my airbrush. Works great and saves money! Love your background music, by the way!

Good to know!

Hey Bobbie how thin does acrylic paint have to be to go through a 0.2 nozzle and needle?? What do you use to thin down the acrylic paint? Do you use your homemade brew??? How many parts of paint to thinner?? I'm trying to do extreme detailed stuff and just wondering how you would do it? Thanks. If you made a video about it, it would be even better. Thanks mate! Oh , I should also add, what would be a good air pressure?

Bobby! Thank you! As usual - interesting, informative and useful for every modeler.

[@genessismodels]

What kind of one-handed clamps did you use during construction? (Min 3:36)

Technically is perfect. A personal opinion, I think the shading is too noticeable.

Word of caution: molten lead gives off carcinogenic fumes. Please do it in well ventilated areas.
