I have shared this video on my local model club Facebook group

You’re a legend thank you so much! It’s a real struggle getting the views as a small channel so this helps a lot!!

[@UncleTadhg]

Mine's been languishing in the stash for about a decade, but seeing this has inspired me to grab some 80 grit sandpaper and have a go at her. Great video, thanks for posting!

[@lowrentrick]

Excellent!! It is a bit of hard work.. please let me know if your end wing sections have recesses to accept the lugs, or if they are just blank like mine and I got dodgy kit and had to cut off the lugs and glue flush.. thank you very much for watching. 👍👍👍

[@UncleTadhg]

@@lowrentrick Just checked, mine DOES have slots, but they're very narrow (less than 1mm) and poorly defined. I'll no doubt end up down the superglue route too!

[@lowrentrick]

@@UncleTadhg thank you for checking!! I didn’t see even a 1mm gap on mine.. it did have quite an edge on the larger pieces too.. at least you know it’s something you’ll have to do now instead of it being a surprise like I got 😂😂

[@UncleTadhg]

@@lowrentrick Knowing the kit's age and pedigree, I was sure nothing would surprise me!

Another great build, even with the issues that you faced with the kit 👌

[@lowrentrick]

Thank you 🙏

[@nigelpickett2471]

Nice work, I haven't plucked up the courage for panel lining yet, maybe the next one!

[@lowrentrick]

Go for it! I was a bit nervous tbh haha Thanks for watching

[@epos79]

nice one bro, I just picked up the same kit a few weeks ago, looking forward to that build :-) cheers

[@lowrentrick]

@@epos79 you’re very welcome.. it’s an in depth build.. watch out for the wing slots at each end.. mine didn’t have any! Enjoy it, thanks for watching 💪💪

[@duncanling2127]

Beautiful work as always Rick when I made one a a few years ago I got some old shoe laces to simulate the refuelling lines and attached them to a tornado sadly I don’t have either kits any more :(.

[@lowrentrick]

Thank you!!! Good idea for the refueling.. do you think you’ll build another??

[@duncanling2127]

@@lowrentrick I hope so I was thinking about the recent Airfix one but it’s too expensive so I might go back to the won you’ve have built and thank you it looked cool hanging from the ceiling :)

[@duncanling2127]

@@lowrentrick I am not sure the shoe laces where to scale but but in my head it looked good lol 😂

Agreed 👍

Enamels are fine paints, in my humbrol opinion.

I would guess the lacking slot in the wing will possibly be down to tool wear/damage and repair/refinish. It's common to laser weld repair or remove a feature creating a cavity if it becomes damaged. Normally it's wouldn't fly (pardon the pun) but as its a hobby kit most moulders won't worry as what's a little fettling in a model kit? wonderful finish there. I love the Victor and especially the Vulcan. I tend to build 1:48 and have a hankering for the new 1:48 SR71 but would love a 1:48 vulcan and Victor... alas I don't have a spare room for them...so I will likely pick up good 1:72 versions at some point.

[@lowrentrick]

@@Rich77UK pun pardoned 😂 I didn’t spot the lack of slot until I’d glued the pieces 😂 live and learn.. thanks for watching 👍💪

[@DB.scale.models]

I never seen white used for pre shading. Very good work for first-time air brushing😊 👍 What little camera are you using ? Thanks for sharing!

[@lowrentrick]

Thank you! The little camera is a GoPro Hero 5, Main camera is an Obsbot Tiny 4K. Thanks again for watching my videos.

[@OldGamingGeezer]

Hi. Nice job on the Victor. Beautiful plane. I had this same kit, but never finished it. Like you I used it to test painting methods. My kit was really bad, lots of parts just didn't fit together. I had huge gaps, and the canopy was totally warped. But, in fairness it is a very old tooling. I have been thinking about picking up the Airfix model.

[@lowrentrick]

After a lot of sanding and superglue I was pleased with it, if nothing else it taught me a lot..

[@411maintainer]

Nice job you did on that awesome plane. 😊

[@lowrentrick]

Thank you very much 😊😊😊

[@robjohnson2821]

Great job mate 👍 thanks for sharing.

Thank you! 👍👍👍

[@scotty6346]

I've got this kit buried away somewhere, Time to dig it out and have a go! Was the Revell kit a re- boxed Matchbox kit? Subbed and liked 👍

[@lowrentrick]

Hi.. yes exactly. This was a matchbox kit. It was a lot of fun but there are some fit issues as I said in the video 😂 thank you very much for watching and the sub I’m very grateful 👍🙏

[@Tconcept]

It's a Matchbox kit, shame people don't acknowledge it's heritage.

[@lowrentrick]

I didn’t know this..

[@evotika]

@@lowrentricknot a lot of people do…..

[@andrewedwards7467]

People probably don’t know that!

[@gapratt4955]

Watching this video it would be hard to tell you are a novice on the airbrush. Practice is the key.

[@lowrentrick]

@@gapratt4955 thank you! This really was my first time! I have just got another kit with a compressor so practice will not be a problem!! Thank you for watching 👍🙏💪
