Stunning build! Your method of masking off panels to shoot grey primer is something I will definitely try. No need to mask and shoot different metallics to get the effect. This plane has the perfect amount of weathering on it as well. This is a living room piece, not one for a dusty shelf in the man cave.

Great work and beautiful plane. One gripe though, the blue in the decals is the wrong shade, it should be a darker. closer to royal blue, not sky blue. Eduard kits are great but this is an important detail they got wrong here!

Excellent paint job. It really does look like it's made of metal and NOT styrene!

Lovely job! 👍🏻 I also built the weekend version of this kit and it was riddled with issues...big gaps near front wheel well, wings warped, fuselage warped, and ridiculously bad main gear undercarriage locations (i.e.none!), it was HELL! So well done.

Yeah, i actually ask myself many times if the manufacturers build test samples of the kits they release ... but the more mistakes you make the more you learn from them.

Totally agree with you...now Eduard have done it AGAIN with the new Tempest Mk.V...it also has similar (if not worse) fit issues! 🙄

You've done an incredible job! Although one constructive comment, next time try to polish the gloss black/primer so that you get an even better metallic result!

A work of art! Just be careful using so many font styles and colors. It can be really distracting from enjoying your beautiful work.

Your brush for weathering with oils, what is it?

@jean-paulschweitzer6211 4 жыл бұрын

Hello Headmod, what do you use for the oil dots?

@janferino158 5 жыл бұрын

Wonderful, thank you for the inspiring video. The technique is excellent and the subject very interesting, not just another f18/f15/f16...I love that era of shiny planes! I also find interesting the black base paint layer. Is there any special reason to prefer it to another base color, if any? Bye

@Headmod 5 жыл бұрын

If you want super shiny surface use Gloss Black Color , as you can see in the Video i used Grey Primer on some Panels ( it seems to be semi gloss or matte) so i get completly color change the Panels. Try to experement on a piece of plastic or spare model , you will notice that Matte Primers gives you a Matte metal finish and gloss primers Shiny gloss finishes , but gloss black gives you that shiny mirror like finish if you polish it before apllying metalizer.

Another great build may I ask was there many fit issues with the kit? It looked from the video as if it was a pretty straightforward build with not a lot of filler or sanding involved. Kind regards Dave

@Headmod 5 жыл бұрын

Hi and thank you , i had some fitting issues with the Forward main wheel bay , there was a gap between the Fuselage and the Wheel bay (maybe it was my mistake), and some minor gaps between wings and Fuselage you can see the gaps at 7:18 min in the Video

@davedelaney9727 5 жыл бұрын

Many thanks for your reply it is much appreciated. I must say I fancy building one of these now I have seen your video build most inspiring!! Kind regards Dave.

@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab 5 жыл бұрын

I do not think you made an error Headmod, that is the way the kit is...I built it and really struggled with many issues...by modern standards, I think it is quite crude and I would warn other modellers to maybe think twice before getting this one...look great on the sprue but lots of fit and gap problems. Headmod's great skill may be overselling this kit! Lol! 😉

Headmod for Modelling President. I bet plasmo looks every of your video and learns something new. AMAZING WORK. Do you sell these modells too? I live in Africa and would love to buy some of your work.
