Awesome kit, very good work, Gary.

Another cracking build son 👏. I've got the Revell 1/72 Me 262 B-1a/U1 Nightfighter I must see what it's like compared to the Airfix version. I built the Heller version back in the day but I broke the antennas. Keep up the great work Gary 👍

Lovely build Gary. I'm a bit like you in that I love doing captured markings and 'what-if's' - let's face it Eric 'Winkle' Brown had plenty to do in testing these aircraft come the end of the war!

And the Me262 becomes a BF109 (wingssection)? Little mistake, but thx for the tip to fill gapes on wings. Great paint job and build.

Hello mr.gary. nicely done as allways gary👏.i like that paintjob.And the boxart is great.with sticky greetings. Christian

Nice job gary love the mottling 😊

I'm gobsmacked at the amount of hidden assembly details in modern kits. The way that sub-assemblies snap into place, sometimes even needing a modicum of brute strength and ignorance to get the snap. The way that cockpit tubs are detailed and assembled makes me shudder when I remember trying to put the pilot's seat on a couple of subby pegs when building a 1970s kit discovered in an antique or Oxfam-like shop. I can see that compared to the Aussie 75 cent asked for those kits in the 1960s, the modern price of up to $AUD50 for a 1/72 scale kit is not due to the ravages of inflation, but an indication of the vast advances in the planning and designing of the injection molds. The availability of aftermarket items like decals, filler putty and canopy masks brings these models almost to, nay up to, museum standard. Nice build, by the way.

Boy, this certainly isn't an Airfix bagged kit. 😂 It's been eons since I've built a 1:72 aircraft but the fit on thins kit is excellent. The detail is terrific, even to the antenna. If you don't,/ want to build just another fighter, this night fighter is a great opportunity . Nicely done, Gary!

Hi Gary, thank you for build vid, now that your skills are of a high skill set, could see your way to doing a video on the mottle camouflage, like air pressure, paint to thinner ratio, I have tried this a few times and yes rubbish you make look very easy, looking forward to your comment.

Nice work Gary thanks for the vid . Regards Gav.

love this plane. Built a 1/32 version when I was a kid, and have done the Revell 1/72. 1/48 Hobby Boss one is in my build queue for when the weather warms up! It's just a nice looking model subject

Great mottling

Great build. Your mottling painting is excellent.

Congratulations Gary, that looks great. Nice work on the mottling.

Went together beautifully with lots of nice detail for a 1/72 kit and that new airbrush did the camouflage scheme with no problem look forward to that review well done Gary 👍

Super result, Gary! Lovely, lovely finish 😊

I enjoyed this one a lot, I have this kit in my stash, me 262 is a fabulous lookin fighter. I use also Mr Dissolved Putty for minor gaps and seams. But as it dries almost transparent, I pour some black Mr Surfacer 1500 into to the jar, they're compatible, although not exactly the same stuff. It's easier to sand when you see the putty.

Enjoyable to watch. Great fit. Fascinating subject. At one stage the aeroplane changed into a zwilling 109 ?

Thanks for showing the camouflage painting. The ME262 looks great despite the radar antennae. I've built one Airfix 262 kit, but it's a subject that I'd like to tackle again.

Good morning Gary. Was that the Bf-109 'Zwilling' you used to demonstrate the dissolved putty application for the wing leading edge gaps?

Yet again a great build and really enjoyable watch. It's a toss up between the Me262 and a Stug for the best looking WW2 vehicles in my opinion

Hi Gary, at about 8 minutes you start filling gaps in your me109z! Were those ejector pin marks on the cockpit panels, or simulated swages. There seem a lot of them. A pretty result.

Very nice job, great looking model. I will be on the hunt for an ME 262 kit and this one is looking rather nice.

Great kit Gary

Has Airfix modified the nacelle to wing joint for the B model? Everyone in a group build of the 262A kit I was in had trouble with the nacelle fit.

Hi Gary, love your channel you're a total natural at presenting and your modelling skills are brilliant. BUT please can you make the next German plane with German decals. The captured thing is fine but it's beginning to get on my nerves. Sorry! Everything else is great and your output is astonishing. All the best. ♥️

great video gary! I've built one of these myself as an A model and really enjoyed it. one small thing: I think in the "wings" section at around 7:45 you also used footage from the 109 zwilling build which was funny to see. confused me at first

Nicely done Gary. I have this in my stash, but my airbrushings skills are nowhere near to your standards, so haven't built it.

Nice job indeed. My favourite aircraft. Since I only do 1:32, I have all 4 models that were ever available in that scale in my stash. Seeing your finished model, I am getting motivated to do one of them as a change...maybe not the 1974 Revell kit nor the 1987 Hasegawa "conversion" kit...not sure yet...

The kit looks very good and the build video the same. I like the notes on the airbrushing (pressure set @ 1.4 bar) & on the thinning of the paint. One question on the putty; do you wipe the excess off after application or is the sanding stick called for? Was surprised by the switch to the BF109Z for that section but it is a generic subject. 😀

I certainly hope they didn't load any ammo for the nose guns, otherwise might be a bit self defeating of its radar purposes. Looks like the design team did a good job making it an easy build. Well done 👍.

How did you get the "waxoyl underseal" effect on the undersides? Was that a post-capture application because of the salt on the British roads?

Are you going to do a review of the Mobeus airbrush ?

I need a good 262 to go with my Tamiya 1/48 Meteor. Mark and brand not important. Any suggestions? Thanks all😊 Ian

I'm a little confused. Do you apply glue and then tape the seam, or do you tape the seam and then apply glue? If the latter, do you risk the tape attracting glue through capillary action and ruining the finish?

Gary lovely job ,but my friend the tail fin insignia is the wrong way around on the port side should be red leading both sides 😢 don’t hate me bud Cheers Mark

Mixed up videos Gary?

У Ме - 262...от фирмы ,аирфикс, неправильная задняя часть мотогондол двигателя.Хотя модель новее ,хасегавы,...,хелер,...,академии,...и у них проблем с копийностью нет!Даже странно видеть такой дефект и невнимание к деталям...у такой известной фирмы как ,айрфикс,....странно!😭
