Very nice stunning F4F-4 Wildcat fighter aircraft plane besides the F6F Hellcat too. Nice model i like that so far

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

always loved the wildcat and though some people think its ugly due to the fat belly on it i personally think it looks great

[@CYPRUS008044]

Mr. Color are full lacquers. So is Mr. Surfacer. Got to have some kind of ventilation to the outside.

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

i have the windows open and a fan blowing the fumes outside
i also have a proper face mask with the side vents that i use to stop breathing all fumes
not the best but its my method

[@williamwallace9427]

Fantastic sir. Really enjoy your model making

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

New sub , here. Nice work.👍

Thanks for the sub!

[@marksixofone4104]

YM. An absolutely superb build. Agree about MR color paints, I think they are the worst smelling I have come across. On the issue of space for a spray booth have you looked at the ones that recirculate therefore no hoses and so far more portable and easier to stash away. Just a thought to keep you safe.

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

Honestly no I haven't but I am now you have mentioned them
Thanks for mentioning that 😃

[@randytaylor1258]

While acrylic paints may smell bad, the odor doesn't hurt you the way other solvents do so no mask is necessary. A recirculating spray booth would certainly help with the stink.

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

@@randytaylor1258 i have been looking at portable spray booths but they aint cheap so will have to wait a while till i get one

[@robertsalanon2909]

[@randytaylor1258]

You've convinced me -- I have to have this kit. I love early Wildcats and the yeoman's job they did at Guadalcanal and Midway.
The kit is lovely and you have brought out the detail beautifully.
Cheers!

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

thanks it was a present from my daughter and i am glad its made into a loverly kit

[@HangardelModelista]

Nicely done

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

Thanks!

[@stevesmodelbuilds5473]

Beautiful work, as always. I wish I could get my cordless/hoseless airbrush to work. Air blows out, but the best I get is little baby paint bubbles 🙁.

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

could be blocked at the nozzel
i had similar and bought a ultrasonic cleaner and that sorted it
only takes a tiny bit of dried paint to block the nozzel

[@milrman12345]

Ove got a few eduard in my stash plus just got a free one from airfix mag

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

i also get the airfix mag and think its about the best on the market

[@milrman12345]

@yorkshiremanmodels I've just paid 49 quid for year, which saves a bit plus got a free model and binder which ain't bad cause model about 20 quid

[@kennethpetroni9254]

Fantastic build! I loved your weathering. Did you use in any clear coats after your initial coat of paint or after your weathering? Liked and subscribed!

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

after i painted the aircraft i added a gloss clear cote
i then put the decals on and added gloss over the decals to "seal" them
once pinwash was completed i did a overall flat matt finish to allow the oils better grip when using them
hope that helps

[@kennethpetroni9254]

That is very helpful! Thank you

[@BennyCFD]

No doubt a very nice build, but most of the fine detail work will never be seen. Kind of like painting the inside of a wall

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

haha your right there
think most model makers are the same in covering up detailed work

[@Micz82]

Nice model, but the propeller didn't turn out very well. There's also a bit of a lack of final weathering, which makes it look like a toy

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

think it turned out quite good
ps i am not night shift or one of the other top model makers i just do it for fun and when i have time due to work commitments ect
thanks for the comments and have a good new year

[@Micz82]

@@yorkshiremanmodels ok:) happy modelling :) And happy New Year!!!
