Kinetic GOLD Harrier GR.3 1/48 Scale | The Inner Nerd

[@TheInnerNerd]

Hey gang and welcome back to my return to modelling on KZbin! Hope you enjoy the video, there are a few glitches in the video for some unknown reason, so please don’t go out buying a new device (unless it’s a good to use excuse of course ;)) The model stand is available on my website www.theinnernerd.com and is completely made by me. The money made from it helps support the channel and keep the videos rolling, maybe even full-time one day… lets see. Otherwise, have a great Christmas/break if you don’t celebrate it and see you next year, Matt :)

[@brantontolkamp6085]

Hello! I am looking to start a modeling KZbin channel as well as I have been building models for quite some time. I was wondering where you get your music for your videos! It sounds great and the model was fantastic.

[@ScottKenny1978]

Welcome back!

[@TheInnerNerd]

Hello. I use Epidemic sound. It's a royalty free site with a monthly subscription. Drop me an email and I'll give you some more details :) [e-mail]

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thanks Scott and thanks for watching :)

[@kevintyler7900]

So glad your back, there was a massive hole without you!! Good luck and enjoy your new home and especially the workshop!!

[@colossalbigfoot256]

For whatever reason your narration makes these videos enjoyable. You tend to build more like I do.. some details but not crazy.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@imteebee]

When i and other modelers needed him most he came back btw fantastic video

[@TheInnerNerd]

Glad to be back! Thanks for waiting, I'm back for good now, promise :)

[@imteebee]

@@TheInnerNerd thanks bro

[@stuff31]

I love how you liken your circle cutter to a torture device, that's the kind of humour I like

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@jaredcowell5470]

So happy you’re back! The Inner Nerd is my favorite model channel!

[@TheInnerNerd]

Wow thank you and thanks for returning to watch! :)

[@daveshaw2765]

It has been a journey watching your videos over the years. You can see how your skills have developed into producing an extremely nice looking model. Also the production of the videos themselves have become very nicely done. Your commentary has added a great value to the educational aspects of the techniques you employ. The music is not overwhelming and just a nice background. The camera work and lighting are some of the best to be scene on the net for modeling videos. Even my 4 year old grandson enjoys your videos. Thank you for all your hard work that you put into them. I will be ordering one of your stands after the holidays to help support your channel.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you for following me for so long! I think I’m roughly where I want to be in terms of the video making and it makes me happy to see that viewers can see the development also. I’m going to keep the calm and collected feel to the videos moving forward, ASMR meets modelling I guess haha. Thank you for the comment, this is what keeps me motivated to improve with each build, both in terms of the model, but it’s presentation too. Thanks again and have a great Christmas also :)

[@stoobieman]

"torture device which doubles as a circle cutter'...gold, great video bud. Thank you.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Looks like some sort of cigar cutter right? Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@40ftinc.42]

Great to see you back. Especially appreciate the work with the metal paints, got that new F4 from Tamiya on the horizon for my first jet build.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you and thanks for watching :) Best of luck with the Phantom, it looks an epic kit! I also have a Phantom on the horizon (when do I not haha) but it's the ZM F-4E kit. Can't wait!

[@terminatordragon1980]

Awesome, my first jets hopefully gonna be the new tamiya 1/48 F-14A

[@tonyromano6220]

That should be fun.

[@paulsawyer2326]

I also bought the new F4 tamiya kit. Heard alot of great reviews on the kit. Good luck the build.

[@imatts]

Hi, a superb build! The colour texture and 'feel' of the GR3 has been captured beautifully. The only thing (and I hate to say it) is that the forward nozzles were powered from the 'cold' compressor side of the Pegasus engine, so was unaffected by hot efflux. They were always in normal paint finish. The 'hot' turbine fed rear nozzles were very much heat affected and so would have looked as your patina effect. The 'puffer ducts' were also fed from the hot side of the ECU and similarly coloured as the aft nozzles. Your representation certainly brought back many memories. Thank-you.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you. The exhausts do say this in the instructions but almost all the images I used for reference showed metallic cans all round. This is one picture I used images.app.goo.gl/uLWH4NPpq9nxNP3g6

[@imatts]

Fair comment - you should use source images when researching paint and finish. The front nozzles if not painted, would have been natural steel finish rather than having a heat burnished effect. My recollection of 4 Sqn Harrier GR3 aircraft from the early 80's were front nozzles painted green, aft turbine powered nozzles very heat burnished. In the hover, there is no cooling airflow, so things got very hot. The aft fuselage from the heat shields was very, very sooty and oily - often it was impossible to read the tail number - hence we relied on the fin and outrigger idents. The back third of the GR3 was probably the dirtiest airframe I ever worked on!

[@flddoc2]

I have no idea why your channel came across my feed but I’m glad it did. I’m not a “modeler” but I surely appreciate fine crafting and art, which your skill set certainly foots the bill. I love what you do and enjoy your videos.

[@TheInnerNerd]

I'm also glad it did! Thank you and thanks for watching, I hope you'll stay :)

[@eddiebirdie1545]

Hiya Iggy, i really hope you give model making a try it can be done for a very reasonable price and the satisfaction from a nicely finished kit is great.

[@flddoc2]

@@eddiebirdie1545 I have to now😁. You really take this to the next level. I know I need to start simple and just stick to some basic principles. Which for me, having never done this, read instructions completely, separate parts and sand any residual connecting “tags”, go slowly. Amy other advice or recommended brands to start with?

[@eddiebirdie1545]

Airfix spitfire starter set or any other starter set, nail file and something to cut parts off the frames that's all you need to start.

[@zg8626]

Couple of minor points regarding the harness straps: On ejection the pilot eventually separates from the seat, whilst generally finding it preferable to remain attached to the parachute. In the real thing this is achieved by a catch mechanism which essentially lets go of the harness at a determined point. The upshot is that the waist straps should be inside rather outside the seat pan. Similarly the leg restraint lines that you added are "plugged in" via the pilot's leg straps on boarding. The free ends were generally draped over the control column on exiting the aircraft. Typically, these lines are blue. Really enjoyed the video and various top modelling tips. Thanks! PS/ Some more rivet counting from me: * The engine access panels are actually the 4 *forward* of the wing and these hinge and prop independently. What you refer to as access panels are in fact an aerodynamic fairing. Iirc, the small panels on the fairing allow access to the lifting points. * The Pegasus engine is a topic in its own right (The Andrew Dow book is great if you're interested) and an important aspect is that it effectively has a separate front and rear section (that rotate internally in opposite directions). The front is the fan section and thus blows relatively cold air out of the forward nozzles. The rear is the exhaust of the turbine section and is MUCH hotter. Heat staining effects differ accordingly. * The engine has its own starter/aux power unit (minimising the need for ground support equipment) that intakes and exhausts through those rectangular ducts on the engine access panels. Left hand is exhaust, right (with the mesh) is the inlet. The exhaust one gets quite mucky. * The red line on the wing root highlights the ground fire extinguisher point for the hot end of the engine. If flames appear during start, the ground crew poke the end of their extinguisher lance into the hole in the vain hope of preventing an unscheduled barbeque (aka "business meeting" nowadays apparently). The red box should surround the hole.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thanks for the insight. I would never have known this unless if have worked on the actual aircraft. I’m just a modeller and have no aviation background whatsoever, the art of modelling is what I like and there are always some inaccuracies with all my builds. Oh well… Thanks again and thanks for watching :)

[@mikemontgomery2654]

Fantastic work! One of the best harrier builds I’ve seen on YT. Very refreshing to see someone actually get the nozzles painted correctly. That’s one of the areas I consistently see many modellers get wrong, for some reason.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you and thanks for watching :)

[@flybobbie1449]

Don't think they are correct, front nozzles are cold so never burn tarnish. Just look at many pictures, they tend to get painted body colour. I have three Harriers on the go, all long term projects (like 3 years still not finished, biggest is the Hobby Boss, trying to animate all the moving parts).

[@mikemontgomery2654]

@@flybobbie1449 Even that depends on the Harrier model. The original versions were unpainted metal. The newer Harriers (BAE/McDD) had the cold nozzles painted.

[@flybobbie1449]

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you and thanks for watching! :)

[@thomaskositzki9424]

Specific-tip-comment: 4:45 onwards: I would recommend starting airbrushing with a simpler model to get a hang of the handling and maintenance first. My first Airbrush was a rather complex internal mixing airbrush and I promptly bend the finest needle rendering it inoperable (back in the 90's getting spare parts was a challenge). I bought a rather simple external mixing airbrush and it served me well for a long time, putting up with my inexperienced handling due to being more sturdy in construction. Later, when more experienced, I switched to a high-end airbrush.

[@davidspalding3267]

Thanks Matt for the modelling stand featured in this video. I received it yesterday and put it together. It looks awesome and a fresh change from trying to balance my models on pots of paint. Simple but effective.

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you for your order! I hope it helps you with your modelling and keeping those works of art safely off the bench :) Thanks again and thanks for watching :)

[@plastictsubasa1390]

I built the Hasegawa’s 1/72 as a “commission” and it was perhaps the most miserable modeling experience I’ve had as an adult. It gave me a great appreciation for the subject, though, and you’ve executed it tremendously!!

[@TheInnerNerd]

Ahh I've never done the 1/72 but that was soul destroying on many occasions. I feel your pain too, but you're right, modelling a subject shows many details otherwise missed when looking at something under 'normal' conditions. Thank you and thanks for watching :)

What a superb result. I'm not really a Harrier fan but I did enjoy following along. As has been said, the production is just right. As well as informative and inspirational, I actually found it a very calming and restful video - a bit like being in a modelling spa! In these troubled times I like to lose myself in modelling, which often means losing myself in someone else's build! I also note that you use several of products that I use - that Perfect Plastic Putty is a particular favourite of mine. Anyway, thanks for posting this and a Happy New Year (of modelling). 🙂

[@TheInnerNerd]

Thank you, I'm aiming for a calm and informative video approach. I'm glad that is working out for far :) Modelling should be a calm and safe space where we can get away from everything and focus only on the task in hand, even if it that is watching rather than doing lol.
