תודה רבה:) שמח שאהבתה^^

[@ehudgavron9086]

You put on glue better than I can master a screw. Your paint lines are thin as can be. The end result is fantastic. Ra'am al ha midbar to you. Ehud Tucson, Arizona ("Thunder over the desert!"!)

[@basmoleman1488]

Nice build. Shows what you can achieve with quite straightforward techniques.

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! I like straightforward things :)

[@алексейсмирнов-н4ы]

As always, another excellent work, the correct presentation of the material, nothing superfluous, accessible even for beginners, but no less interesting for experienced modelers. My congratulations.

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you ^^ I was a bit worried about this one, but glad it turn out ok :)

[@fredtedstedman]

2:50 what is this stuff you are "blobbing on" ???? and why ? Love the IDF camo colours ! It has R2D2 in rear of cockpit . Wales UK.

[@Scalecat171]

It was CA glue mix with VMS CA glue filler. I used this mix on deep gaps or when I don’t want to putty to dry as CA dries much faster :) haha yeah, it can be some Astrodroid :)

[@lidor276]

are you selling by any chance?

[@SpruesToScale]

Hey, great builds so far. Really liked how you made the all black finish of the f-117 look interesting. May i ask what you use to film your videos? I mean camera, lights...

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! I'm using just my phone, old Xiaomi Mi9 and just led lamps :) unfortunately it have many disadvantages, so I'm saving now money for decent DSLR camera

[@SpruesToScale]

@@Scalecat171 well i'm kinda in the same situation with my Samsung. I'm not sure if it's worth investing in a DSLR or just get a better phone or just keep using this one since i am not making any money from the channel and just get a better airbrush :) . I'll keep watching your videos. Thanks for the reply.

[@Scalecat171]

You are welcome! I think good camera is great investment as it give you a lot of new options for making content. Now I just can't shoot what I need only becouse is technical limit of my phone camera

[@johanblume2621]

What product did you use when you sprayed the panel lines? Super nice build!

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! I used Ammo Shaders on this one, grime color :)

[@danieltaylor2340]

Amazing build! How do you get commissions to build models?

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! Oh, just posted at local models groups, but I almost don’t do commissions now

I really want a 1/32 Sufa Storm but I have a 1/32 Tamiya F-15E and F-16CJ still in the box 🤣👍

[@Scalecat171]

You can funds Sufa in 32 from academy, and for F-15 and F-16CJ you can fine resin conversation sets from IsraDecal:)

[@Maxtherocketguy]

Can you please try 1:72 airplane models?The models looks great

[@Scalecat171]

Not a big fan of 72 scale, but I think I’ll build some eventually, many some big bombers, also I have one Star Wars kit in this scale

[@Maxtherocketguy]

@@Scalecat171 1/48 kits are unaffordable for me so I stick with 1:72 and 1:144 but for cheap ww2 planes I used 1:48 because they are like 2-3 bucks

[@user-qf7lq5ym4o]

Great video! Lovely detail. Do you have the numbers for the paints you used, please?

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! Yeah, I used AK Real Colors set “IAF modern desert scheme” it have all 4 colors for this scheme

[@matoz697]

where you from?

[@Scalecat171]

Israel

[@bradmannion6769]

Sorry I couldn't understand you, Please what was the AK clear product you used on the MFD displays?

[@Scalecat171]

Yeah, my English definitely needs some practice 😁 I used AK Wet Effects fluid

[@Scalecat171]

Also it's basically gloss enamel varnish, so if you have one you can use it for same purpose

[@bradmannion6769]

@@Scalecat171 Thank you so much. Yea you mean some people in the world don't speak perfect English?? WOW Never thought LOL HAHAHAHA Joke!!

Good job really well done! Maybe an F-16 Sufa would look good on this bird side?😊

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! I've build Sufa in 1:48 and 1:32. Unfortunately, in 48 scale the only option is Kinetic kit, and it's really bad one :(

[@theTutenstien]

@@Scalecat171 Yes I have build it myself it has really bad fitting. But it comes with a lot of weapons for your spare box :D :D

[@Scalecat171]

Nah, it's not selling this kit again for me :) but if I'll able to find academy sufa in 32 for normal price I'll be happy to build it again

[@georgem4713]

Just found your channel. Amazing job, great build. Thank's

I bought this kit today. Looking forward to building it! Now I must just finish my A4 Skyhawk fans find some 1/48 Isreali decals for it haha

[@AlfredodejesusNajeraRueda]

What color and brand used for the grey

[@שרוןניר-ג9ר]

Hi there, great job!! What is the material by AK used for shiny cockpit screen? Regards

[@Scalecat171]

Hi! Thank you! For screens I used AK Wet Effect, basically it’s like enamel varnish, and for this purpose you can use any thick varnish or even epoxy resin

[@danieltaylor2340]

I love that comment 13:39. Not like Phantom but still a lot.

[@omnipotank]

This makes me want to collect all of the F15 models (and I have never considered this before).

[@Scalecat171]

[@joemeredith3143]

It's wonderful to watch this process, I was always hopeless at building model kits but great to see the experts at work. Which glue do you use for plastic parts, I always though a brush was much easier to apply with that the contacta needle type thing.

[@Scalecat171]

Thank you! I don’t really think I’m and expert, abut I’m glad you like my works. Hopefully I will be able to do more soon. Abut the glue - my favourite is VMS quick type cement, which I pour into Ammo Mig cement bootle, coz I really like its brush. Also Contacta is a great glue, and can be useful in cases when you need to glue large surfaces :)

סרטון מצוין!!! 1. איפה קונים את המכונה שאתה צבעת חלק מהמטוס? 2. כדי לכסות חלק שאתה לא רוצה לצבוע אתה משתמש בסלוטייפ רגיל? דרך אגב יצא ממש יפה

[@Scalecat171]

תודה רבה! 1. כוונה לאיירבראש? יש הרבה אתרים לציוד לדגמים כולל איירבראשים, אני אישית משתמש באיירברשים של חברה Fengda, ומזמין אותם בעלי אקפרסס. 2. זה סלוטיים לדגמים של חברת Tamiya. עדיף לקחת במיוחד לדגמים כי ככה אתה בטוח זה יעבוד כמו שצריך
