- Part 1 of my full build for the Airfix 1/72 B25 Mitchell C/D Bomber, in this part we get all of the internal structures together, paint and weather the cockpit and bomb-bay and joint the fuselage halves together.
Nice job so far...looking forward to seeing "Lady Jane" come to fruition! Have fun with the rest of the build! Cheers : )
You can find tape like what you showed at any office supply store in the drafting section, in the US the trade name is Chart Pak and is in several widths and colors. It makes a good mask for walkway outlines on aircraft as well as speed lines The tape was also used as markings themselves for years until people noticed that years after they had finished a model they would find their line work peeling off. It's still a good mask for canopies and edges of complex curves.
Nice job on the bombs. The Airfix decals look really good as well.
The interior is looking great, cant wait to see the final, thanks for sharing!...Bill
Looks a good kit mate! Think I might buy this.Need a Mitchell in my collection.Nice job on the interior 😍
Yes it’s a nice looking aircraft
Been following this build as a guide while I’m building mine. Curious if there’s another video that I may have missed as this isn’t the complete build?
Enjoy your video content, you do fine work building the kits.
The main reason some of these planes only carried 2 bombs was because they took off from an aircraft carrier the
"Doolittle Raid" on Japan just after Pearl Harbour was attacked. These planes never before were launched form a carrier and to reach the target they had to reduce as much weight as possible in order to carry more fuel
By the way, you are insanely good at building airfix! Way better than me, only decals is pronounced dee-kals, not deck-als, but otherwise i look forward too seeing more of your videos! Keep up the good building!
The number of bombs the B-25C could carry depended on the type of bomb. For example, it could carry 4× or 6x 500lbs or 3x 1000lbs, or acombination like 5x 300, 1x 500 and 1x 1000. The four bombs included represents a generic bomb load, maybe a 500lbs type, but they look large so maybe they are 1000lb semi-armour piercing or armor-piercing bombs of which the B-25C could carry four.
Is there a part 2 of this video? I’d love to see this completed.
Hi, I can't wait to see what colour scheme you'll choose. :-)
Thanks for watching, you’ll have to stay tuned! 😉
If you take full load bombs You have short range because you don't have to much place for fuel, and plane is heavy with such big bomb load.
Up to 3000lbs bomb load in bay. Also external points for bombs, rockets and 1x torpedo on some variants.
Thanks for the info 👍
When B 25 Bomber Attack Genua my Father was the RECEPTION for the Catch 22 Crewmann. He was Tophill Portofino with his Tent and reconnaisance the Bord to Bord Radio from
the B 25. Then the 8,8 send some Gifts in the Sky. Later he was Prisoners for two Weeks on a fast Boat in Genua Habour; AT Mine Fishing in Portofino Habour, Eva Braun Hitlers Holiday Destination. The B 25 ist noted !

I absolutely love the new Airfix kits but the rough surface texture is incredibly annoying.
What happened to the second video of this build?
I really liked your video, part 1. Are you close to part 2? I am wanting to know what color to use for the main aircraft body? I have AMMO MIG 0915, Dark Green, would this work?
Is their a video of you completing the build with painting and decals
With this lockdown im trying to get into building these models ive ordered this model specifically. I take it u sprayed the paint on and not used a brush? Any help advice id be greatful :)
Its Washi tape dave 👍
I am using Vallejo 71.094 Green Zinc Chromate where the instructions say zinc chromate. But what color would you recommend for me to use for the main aircraft body? I have AMMO MIG 0915, which is dark green. I think this would work, what do you think?
Looks good. I can buy it for $25. Is it worth it?
What glue are you using in this build. Is it tamiya extra thin or thiner then that. The extra thin gives me some problems with penatraeing the small areas.
Extra thin, it’s good and you may just need to open up the area or part a bit more to let it flow
@@ChampionScaleModelling thank you. I will try it. I have been a subscriber for some time now. I appreciate your time and knowledge of modeling. I retired and got back into modeling. The last time I built a model was in 1965. It was a lot different then. We didn't have the type glue and other things available today. I have to learn all over again. But it is very pleasing and a nice relaxing hobby. I will never be as good as you but I will always be trying to get back to what I was able to do. Thank you. Be safe and stay happy
what glue are you using
Oh and what paint do you use? It looks amazing, and there are no brush strokes! Do you use enamel paint? Or acrylic? Please tell me
Wing Flex,
At ~8:50, he states that the paint used is Mr Color interior green lacquer. It was most likely applied with an airbrush after being thinned ~50/50 with some sort of lacquer thinner, perhaps Mr Color Leveling Thinner.
Nice work. What scheme?
Well, the lady calls.........😉 worldwar2database.com/gallery/wwii0024
Is this kit -new tool?
Yes it is ☺
se devo essere sincero non amo che mi si ofra solo una scelta per i portelloni delle bombe,in 72 in particolarare,poi nei corsair F4 non danno l opzione che praticamente hanno tutti a terra
What glue is he using
Did the masks come with the kit?
Bravo modellista ma parla troppo e le immagini ravvicinate sono sempre sfocate o non inquadra il soggetto ,puoi migliorare
What kind of crap is this? Where is the finish plane? You said full build.
