Down vote. Stupid music.

[@ScaleHangar182]

so you giving down votes to content creators just because you didnt like music? do you know how much time do we spend making these models? how many hours of recorded video i had to look through and how many hours it takes me to edit that video? Its impossible to please everyones ears. This is why i am not throwing dislikes on other peoples videos, actaully even if i dont like something, i just dont watch it, i don't harm the creators. many dislikes because stupid reasons like this are killing small channels. so, thanks.

[@wrathofatlantis2316]

@@ScaleHangar182 Nothing wrong with your music. Perfectly appropriate. Great work! I detected very slight tailplane misalignment at 23:16: A pet peeve of mine, but still a great model. I went crazy with getting the leading edge yellow as perfect as you did, because the soft plastic will easily sand into a different leading edge shape!... Airfix did very good work on this one, the clear parts being especially accurate. Good work on the very professional presentation, and the free hand mask cutting!

[@ScaleHangar182]

@@wrathofatlantis2316 thank you, I dont really like freehand masking, and rather spend a few quid on masks usually. Not a single of my models is perfect :)

[@edward.l.h7450]

To be honest, I don’t really like the music as it doesn’t fit the theme of the video. But the build was amazing never the less

[@sufianansari4923]

Speaking of music - what was the name of the theme in the beginning? thanks

[@friktionrc]

Part of the reason I love your channel is how you not only list what instruments you use, but you also name them in the video....I grew up running RC cars (non hobbybgrade) and making airfix planes in the 70s and 80s as well as Tamiya car kits...but never had the tools (or skills)...just made do with my dad's pliers and mum's nail file....now decades later I have a few RCs in my collection and deciding what model I should get to start out with....thanks in no small part to your vids. Thanks for sharing your love of a wonderful hobby 👍🤘🙏😎

[@TheInnerNerd]

Nice one! Looks awesome. I'm sat at my bench right now building mine. expect to see it in about 4 weeks all being well lol

[@USSPROMO]

I've built many models but not to this extreme....I mean the details this guy goes thru are unbelievable...nice job..

[@radioactivelarry]

That is a super weathering job and you spent a lot of time making it right. It's looks so real, fantastic.

[@ScaleHangar182]

Thank you

[@andygorman858]

Stunning work on this griffin powered beast! Loved the use of different weathering techniques you used, especially the heat gun to dry things quickly! Pity you lost some of the footage, u]but it didn’t really detract from the overall vid. Thanks for sharing!

[@ScaleHangar182]

Yeah I lost a lot, but thankfully not super important stuff and still managed to pull a video with decent amount of techniques

[@arodrigues2843]

[@SUFCTERRY]

Wow fantastic skill, I used to make these models 50 years ago as a boy, and now I am going to start again, I have my weekends free due currant circumstances, I have never used an airbrush dont know if its something I should try, already ordered two spitfire models to start with as a learning curve

[@johnfrack8392]

Nice build, managed to catch the premier. Good to meet you and Anna at the Brampton show today. Fantastic builds you had on display.

[@annasartmodelling69]

Hello 😊 Nice to meet you too 😊😊😊

[@ScaleHangar182]

Yes thanks for a chat!

[@anomalyp8584]

Thought I would like to give it a go....not so much after watching this :p This is insane precision. Well done man! I'm sure if you showed this to a veteran pilot, he would love it.

[@vuko010]

Another beaut build.....love your work...it's always a great watch. Particularly enjoyed the weathering process...lots of tips...thank you.

[@ScaleHangar182]

I'm happy you found something interesting :)

[@snufkin5234]

Thanks, learnt a lot from your video. Like the idea of the sponge in the cockpit to keep the paint out when brushing.

[@philRminiatures]

Nice built and most impressive weathering...Superb!!

[@bastianrotter4705]

Really beautiful!!! I'm so hard triggered, and I want this kit in my collection!!!

[@SoymeScaleModels]

What a great build! my favourite spitfire mark is the XIV.

[@mike-rk6me]

I've got the same airfix kit which is my next build.nice seeing it come to life in your build.

[@ScaleHangar182]

Its nice kit. Enjoy

[@modelmakerjohn9146]

Fantastic build totally inspirational, this will be my next project... watch this space...

[@michaelsmith6246]

Very nice build there. I learnt some new tips watching this video. Thanks 👍👍

[@gavinmartin4109]

I just built this (not painted yet) I will use the silly putty trick for the camo.thank you for showing that!

[@jackland454]

Very nice build and thanks for sharing the various techniques you used!

[@ScaleHangar182]

Cheers !

Like the plane, like the build, like the music, like the kitkat, like the beer! Cheers!

[@rovingenglishman]

I made notes of your process. Going to try some of these techniques. Thank you!

[@philiphayes2282]

lovely build, great detailing on the cockpit. I especially like your use of oils and washes blended together to produce a fantastic result. Well done, nice job.

[@andreverson899]

I'm returning to the hobby I left thirty years ago as a child. I learn a lot of techniques with your videos. How can I stop giving a 'like'? By the way, I thought the background music was great. I wait for the next models. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

[@brettpeacock9116]

Very, very nice work on that FR Mk XIVe Spitfire. I do feel (NOT a Criticism of the very fine work, just an observation.) that the weathering is perhaps a little too heavy as the FR XIV only appeared very late in the war and the particular plane option in the markings is an early Post-war aircraft, flown by a senior Officer, and probably based on a paved runway, and well maintained by her crews.(Paint touchups, reg\ular cleanings etc) Also, (and I admit this may be due to U-toob's strange colour rendering!!) the ID yellow used on the spinner and ID stripes on the wings did look much too "Lemon-yellow" and maybe could have been a closer match to the Yellow on the decals (RAF Trainer Yellow), which had a slight orange hue and was a touch darker in tone. (oddly, RAF Trainer yellow is closer in hue to Japanese Orange-Yellow ID paint!! One reason why the RAF in India & Burma adopted White ID paints!) BTW Airfix have just recently released an F Mk XVIII (post-war type) this year!

[@JohnyG29]

Planes get dirty very quickly.

[@danielcampbell3686]

A very nice build looks like its ready to start up and Go.

[@KK__x]

I loved this, for the music! Great sounds, awesome to watch some modelling skills

[@namroy]

The Spitfire is one of the most beautiful fighters of the Second World War together with the Mustang P-51 and Messerschmitt bf 109, if one day I could buy a scale model it would be one of these three because they are the best unfortunately in my country that it's impossible, Greetings from Venezuela Friend

Really good looking plane and diorama mate. Well done and gotta love the clipped wings of this mark of Spitfire :)

[@threadworm437]

God they're so wierd. Especially with the bubble top too but that's just my opinion

[@briansmith4354]

Nicely done my friend. Hint - British propeller governors were notorious for leaking fluids hence next round make your spinner a bit more weathered as it does not seem to match the overall weathering.

[@ScaleHangar182]

Yeah i forgot about that, somehow. However i will work on that

[@ianbrown9108]

Nice build Dawid,keep up the good work. 👍

I weather my models with just artist acrylic paints with water and drop of washing up liquid. Cheap and cheerful, does the job. Put some grey light tan streaks downwind from exhaust, lots of lead in the fuel.

You are a master with the AB marbling sir! Excellent model once again! OK, so any chance you wanna send a fellow modeler across the pond one of those snazzy Kit Kat trees? That thing is pretty funky.

I've been seriously thinking about getting one of these beauties, but I'm worried by reviews about some kit molds being short-shot, which is a bit of a problem with recent Airfix kits. Still, might take the plunge. ^_^ It's not like I've got tons of unbuilt kits already. *cough*

[@christophermathews5714]

I have a question regarding the weathering of the gun(cannon) shell ejection ports, was there a reference photo you detailed it after? , as I personally haven't see such weathering done like that before. Most restored aircraft I have seen have clean paint jobs, and very little battle weathering on them.

[@ScaleHangar182]

Hi yes I came across o photo that you could clearly see long streaks like those. However, the aircraft on the photo was tilted that way you could only see one wing.

[@martinschannel8219]

Outstanding 😁
