Beautiful build, I'm not sure many appreciate just how small this model is in 1/72. Your paint work is exceptional as well. Thanks for the video!

I love how detailed your videos are. most just say i did this but you actually go in and explain everything. Really helps us noobs to understand the mind of someone with more experience. Keep up the good work.

Super job, Metodi. Amazing how you manage so many details from such a small scale model, excellent paint work and weathering details to such a perfect degree. Very enjoyable watch and plenty of tips provided both visually and in the commentary. Will look forward to see what you have for us in the future.

You have such mad airbrush skills! Especially in this scale, much respect. I wish I could duplicate but I have nerve damage in my hands. But I will use this video and your weathering information to build the much easier to handle 1/32 ICM ah-1. Thank you.

Thanks mate, i recently built their yak-23 which is older kit. This one is much much better. Probably on par with if not better than let's say italeri.

Problém s ocasem sem řešil tak, že jednu polovinu jsem vlepil přímo na půlku trupu, abych trefil rovinu a pak po slepení půlek, přidla i druhou ... jako není to špatný model, určitě řádově lepší než AZ ... akorát na finiš ještě čekám, tmelení mne nějak zmohlo :-d

@rolandkovacs9985 3 жыл бұрын

Sensational job, I really like your videos and wanted to say thank you because I learn a lot! One question which came to my mind: what kind of glue did you used for the painted parts (for example during the assembly of the cockpit)? I tried many techniques, many kind of glues but still looking for the perfect solution, not to mess up the paintjob but also hold together the parts.

@MMScaleModels 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate, here I used superglue... just regular liquid one. The quantity is the important bit.
