  • This Tamiya 1/24 Scale Nissan Fairlady Z kit was such a fun build. The engineering of the model kit was amazing. Watch as I assemble the finely detailed parts to make a spectacular car.

    Thank you all for watching and supporting this TH-cam channel. I really appreciate all of your help in growing the channel. Without you, it wouldn't be where it is.
    Make sure to watch for more great model builds coming next year. I have some great ones planned already!

    Awesome build! Comparing this and the Charger video, I certainly enjoyed this video style without all the glue application footage. Too indecisive if I prefer music or no music. Either way both videos were a joy to watch, great work!

    • @ScaleModelExperiment
      @ScaleModelExperiment  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for the input Austin. I had someone comment that he wished it had glue coverage. I personally think that the glue will stay as it is a break between parts attachments. I also prefer the music as it makes an otherwise boring subject a little more enjoyable. Thanks for watching 👍

    • @ScaleModelExperiment
      @ScaleModelExperiment  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Mike, thanks for watching. The color is 50/50 Tamiya yellow and Tamiya white Pearl. ASMR means no music or talking, just ambient sounds. Some like to do weird AMSR like eating potato chips crunch crunch. I think that in build videos you hear the creaks and snaps of parts going together. Kinda cool.

      Thanks Peter! I love the color on the 1:1 so the 50/50 mix of yellow and Pearl white just glimmers under bright light. The interior is small so it really needs a bright color to make it stand out. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Happy New Year🎊

      Sorry yes I glued all of the pieces off camera. In my latest video I showed the application of glue in .7 seconds each place. Let me know if that is better for the video.

    • @ScaleModelExperiment
      @ScaleModelExperiment  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching Trigger. Making TH-cam videos is tough. If I show too much detail it’s boring and my audience goes on to another video. If I show too little detail I get the same thing. I’ve been making videos for 3 years now and I’m still trying to find that sweet spot for building videos that is good for the majority of viewers. Thanks for your input. I used Tamiya extra thin cement for all of the non clear parts and white glue for the clear parts.
