Thanks for making! There aren’t a lot of commercial airliner modelers on TH-cam, and when you do get one it’s almost always a modern subject. Really great to see these distinctive golden age planes.
Great job!! Keep the videos coming. Can I give you a little advice? Try adding putty to the seams and then sand the putty down. It will make your models super clean! I build model kits with LED lights in them. You do great work sir!
Hopefully not, but this is my only minicraft model so I dont have any other comparison. Ive got another minicraft kit waiting to be built so we will find out in a few months.
Mr Asssasin: great video & I enjoyed watching it in time-lapse with some real-time in between to show some highlights of your build. I noticed there were no fancy spray booths, just an ordinary cardboard box. Good to know that we can economize here. Hope it was in a well ventilated area. Keep up the good work. Gary
I bought it at my local hobby shop. I actually do recall them having the BOAC variant as well. Just checked their online store and I appears it sold out. Heres the link if you want to browse through some of their stuff: shop.gandgmodelshop.com/default.asp
+elitejibber took me about a week, probably around 10 hours of work. This was a fairly simple build. I wanted a retro civilian aircraft and I liked the red/blue/silver color combo
Простите пишу на родном русском! 1) Совершенно не за шпаклеванны швы. 2) они даже не запрещено. 3) Покраска красиво, качественно.. 4) Это не сколько модель копия, сколько игрушка 5) Внешне, из далека вид красивый.

One video goes into my recommendations and I start binge-watching these!
Lol glad I got you hooked

Thanks and yep you're right. This is one of my older builds and on my more recent stuff, I putty the seams
I like Northwest Airlines. Great airplane 😊
I tried to build mine,but the engines kept overspending and I have to constantly ditch the aircraft
Congratulation,you are a decalsmaster.Very skillfull when use the wrong decals.Greeting from Hun.
Thanks!!
What are
the dimension in cm?
Challenge, make a Super Guppy large cargo transport out of one these.
Are Minicraft decals usually that terrible?
Hopefully not, but this is my only minicraft model so I dont have any other comparison. Ive got another minicraft kit waiting to be built so we will find out in a few months.
@@ScaleModelAssassin No, they were just old, it;s an old kit. A can of Testors decal bonder will fix that.
Nice decal reconstruction. I always liked the look of that plane.
+Leo Roberts Thanks! It's left me wondering whether Minicraft has poor decal quality or if I got a really old kit
is that a really 1 444 scale ?
Really nice build. Good save with those decals. You've been subbed
Thank you very much!
Wow! You did a great job! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video

Where did you get this and was there a BOAC one
I bought it at my local hobby shop. I actually do recall them having the BOAC variant as well. Just checked their online store and I appears it sold out. Heres the link if you want to browse through some of their stuff: shop.gandgmodelshop.com/default.asp
Those decals could have used a coat of clearcoat to hold them together.
Yep they sure could've. Those old decals are rough
how long did this take you? and what made you choose this model?
+elitejibber took me about a week, probably around 10 hours of work. This was a fairly simple build. I wanted a retro civilian aircraft and I liked the red/blue/silver color combo
seems like the decals weren't very good.
Correct. Sometimes on the old kits the decals tear very easily
kit muito lindo
sorry that is a strato cruiser not a supper Guppy

this music sucks. lets hear a bit of commentary
+elitejibber thanks for the production tips Steven Spielberg :p
:p
Whoa!! As soon as I saw all the giant seams thst you didn't fill and sand I turned this video off.
Each to his own, there's plenty of pro's doing how to vids so I wouldn't be too quick to judge.
Still nice and ignore the haters
Big deal! It's his model, he paid for it, he can build it how he likes. If he were building it for you, then you could bitch.
What’s it like being estranged from your kids?
