REVELL MOSQUITO MK.1V 1/32 PART 1

[@plasticmonkey5594]

I have now done a bit of homework and found out it was all wooden.

[@mac760]

Hi Paul , I'm just watching the build now , as you say , all wood , in fact sheeted in plywood , hence the lack of rivets .

[@MrGoldenV]

It flew like shit off a shovel, such a quick aircraft.

[@paulsmodels]

Yeah! I've built this kit, and it is a challenge to say the least!

[@derrellreynolds6226]

Well done. Will be watching for more. Thank you. 👍

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Derrell

[@harryaudia6]

Good to see you build the Mossie Paul, hopefully it will be a good build for you. Bit of a suggestion try Revell Contacta Professional for some of the parts, especially on some of the larger areas👍.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Harry for the tip appreciated

[@baymodels]

'It fits now'. Hahaha, love it :). A great start Paul. The Mossie is on my list of things to build.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Ian I think it could be bit of a challenge lol

[@ThatMofoDamon]

Nice job done Paul! Hahahaha i tend to use my knofe to open holes sometimes as well, too lazy to find the right drill bit! If you want my opinion i say record each and every one of your builds as long as you are capable and feel like it. Thanks for sharing , take care and keep up the good work my friend!

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks George much appreciated stay safe and have a great weekend 👍

[@HughGordon124c]

The ridged tail wheel design prevented shimmying/castoring during take off & landing ...Like the mossie myself Monkery .The wooden wonder they called it and you will wonder how Revell intended you to build it...😆😆

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Hugh very interesting 👍

[@johnalecsscalemodeling]

Awesome Paul! Looking forward to this series. Be well

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks John stay safe

[@brendongunnell1299]

First off Paul, that's how the Mosquito tail wheel was, second, the Mosquito was an all wood airframe (sheeting was plywood), third, the tail wheel bracket should've been behind the locators. Otherwise, she's looking great. Looks like PE seatbelts or not??? Looking forward to episode 2😉👌👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@gavinbooth]

Your progressing quickly with this build Paul . Regards Gav.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Gav Stay safe

You've inspired me to buy the kit and have a go. Thank you.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thank you for subbing much appreciated, It's a nice kit.

[@charlie418791]

Great plane. Be watchin

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Charlie stay safe

[@russelldelamotte6255]

looks like a good build Paul thanks

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Going OK at the moment Russell stay safe.

[@markshellard5894]

Looking forward to seeing this one of my first builds

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Mark

[@clubspanner9]

The rear wheel was made like that to stop it shimmying. next time you go to Tesco and use a trolley, the wheels will be the same.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks I appreciate your comment. Stay safe.

[@NigelsModellingBench]

Nice one Paul. You do love your old Revell stuff don't you!! that tail wheel is correct, it's called an "anti-shimmy" tyre. Please remember in future.... if the camera is not switched on it will not work.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Nigel ; helps if you have the camrera on lol

[@ZinzanModelling]

Dear Mr Plastic, I have been waiting for this- it should be a good one. Regards, Z

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks zin it could be an interesting one .

[@markoldreive]

Hi Paul, I love the Mosquito. I have the 1/24 Airfix version to build. I hope Sue is recovering?

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Mark, sue alot better at the moment hopefully we have the right meds now,

[@toboldlygosmodelworks1973]

pause is not the record button Paul lol Nice work.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Lol James

[@dwightgouin3889]

That would be awesome if you did a video series on the truck model as I curious the year of the truck? As it looks like a fun build!

[@plasticmonkey5594]

I might just do one if I can get the mossie nearly done, appreciate your comment

[@skullfish]

You said it in the video, if it looks like a mossy at the end of it then perfect, if you want detail go shell out £199.99 for the tamiya kit. this was one of my first kits coming back to the hobby and thoroughly enjoyed it. you got to do the invasion stripes cause it looks Stunning. also not rivet detail because there were no rivets lol all wooden airframe and skinning. nicknamed the "Wooden Wonder"

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Jason it helps to do the homework first lol

[@tronmcconnell4465]

Paul, You may wish to confirm that the tail-wheel strut is still firmly attached to its bulkhead (part 14) after the issue with getting the tail end of the fuselage halves to meet up. It looked to me, as you were moving the bulkhead around to get the fuselage halves together, as if the tail-wheel strut might have been loosened. Also, I'm inferring from your continued use of the Extra Thin Quick Setting glue that the regular Extra Thin is still not working properly with the Revell plastic. If you haven't confirmed this, you may wish to do so, as the regular Extra Thin may give you stronger joints (due to the plastic doing a more complete job of melding together).

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Tron ; Think i loosend the tailwheel strut to be honest ,both glues seem to be working on this kit ,When filming you do tend to rush a bit and not give the glue time to dry

[@ModelkitStuff]

Thats progressing well Paul. those pilots don't look particularly natural, but may improve under paint? Id love to see your commercial vehicle build, looks great.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks Jason hope to join the group build, Like I said to Rob your welcome to post your channel and group build on Sue's Facebook page.

[@seamybmw]

Hi Paul sorry about that ,it's all bit of a learning curve. I will take note of what you said stay safe and have a good week

[@AussieScaleModeller]

Great episode mate enjoyed it immensely, Cheers Jason

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Cheers Jason appreciated stay safe.

[@DutchDaveModels]

That goes together rather well. Not bad for German engineering (Revell that is, haha!) This will turn out a great Mossie.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Hopefully lol

[@lesthiele4921]

Hi Paul, that is excellent progress so far, but one question if I may? Where in hells name are you going to display this mini monster? Good luck with the rest of the project, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia. 👍👍

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Thanks LES ,I Haven't got a clue where it's going after I built it lol stay safe.

[@Johnny-tt8zc]

The mosquito is coming along nicely monkey. Missed you guys yesterday, guess Sue is feeling poorly. Heard sue banging dishes in the background, so she is up and about which is a good thing. Have a wonderful week you two.

[@plasticmonkey5594]

LOL Johnny .poorly yesterday but feeling a bit better today thanks . Yes the mike picks up alot more sound on this phone

[@ghostrider564]

Just wondering, you didn't use or paint the pilots was there a reason?

[@plasticmonkey5594]

Hi ghost rider. I can't remember now ,Maybe I just forgot about them. Appreciate your comment.
