Great Video Chad! The more I watch the more I see where I've gone wrong in my approach to cockpits and weathering. I've also realized that it's more of an artistic impression in some ways than a stark historical duplication of the subject. That in itself makes the end result more pleasing to the eye while retaining historical accuracy and a "lived in look" if you will. I really like the colorful paint schemes which I think makes a model pop when compared to other representations. Again Great Stuff!
@FlyingSModels3 жыл бұрын
Thanks, Tracy. I do tend to take a more artistic approach to my builds. I know based on some comments here and other feedback that it's not to everyone's liking. Some folks believing it to not be a true historical representation. But the way I see it, it's more about what my eye sees when I look at it and less about historically accuracy. Since the model is so much smaller than the real thing, I think it's important to try to capture the details and highlights a little differently so that it looks right by your eye, not by some never to be determined standard for historical accuracy. I consider building models more akin to drawing and painting.....being how to trick the eye to make it look right when viewed. Just my own approach and opinion and there are plenty of folks that would disagree, I know.
@tracysw1003 жыл бұрын
@@FlyingSModels The main reason I quit doing contests is there is no standard regardless of what judging criteria is used. Personal preference is the determining factor. Honestly when you have aircraft that are built to very tight tolerances panel lines are none existent for the most part to the viewing eye at 48 feet and built that way it's pretty dang boring. My father built B-24s in WWII and told me the panel tolerances were 1/64th of an inch so take it for what you will.
@FlyingSModels3 жыл бұрын
@@tracysw100 I agree. I build models that I like to look at, recognizing that they may not be what some folks would define as "true scale". I'm all about personal preference in modeling and totally agree that there really is no standard from what I can see when it comes to contests. Reminds me of that old saying, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I was surprised to hear about the 1/64" tolerance on the B-24's. I would not have guess them to be that tight given the pace at which they were built. Thank you for sharing that.

Just for informational purposes only, being from Argentina I built several of these and one thing I learned along the way is that Argentinian -5 (not -5N/-5NL) Corsairs did not had their cockpits painted on Interior Green but Light Gull Gray, and also some of them had stamped wheel hubs were the stamped and not alloy.

Appreciate that, Stacy. I used markings from a few different sources on this one. I think I have the anchors laid out to cut masks and the codes would be easy to do but the little rooster and that tail on the sun would have to come from a decal sheet. As far as the Val, I only knew about the ones from Fujimi and Hasegawa. I'm guessing you might can get one on an online trading forum like Hyperscale or one of the Facebook trading groups. Also, if bigger is better, I think Infinity Models is supposed to come out with one in 1/32 in the near future.
