An oldschool paintjob, i like it very much!!
Thank you Ron, models on TH-cam have become all about airbrushing. Trouble with that is most home builders don’t have one
@@Johnbuildsiconic doing it oldschool................is an art and it is our duty to keep it alive and you showed it is possible. i have an airbrush but i avoid using it.
You have so much patience, I'm an 'as little as is needed' and 'straight from the factory' kind of guy. Looking great, cand wait to see it finished.
Thank you Stephen. Patience for me is something that’s only came with age
Came for the Yamoto - and found this little gem. Binged all but the Last two Yamoto's and found your works very satisfying to watch...I just might have to subscribe 😉
Thank you Martin
Complete and abridged both good John.
Thank you for viewing the primer Steve
Nice model..I enjoyed building this one
It’s a great model Roy
Excellent and inspiring work thank you. I may add thus too my stash! Take care and keep safe and well. Rob, U.K.
Thank you rob. Great model for any collection
Superb John !
I’m loving the choice of music! Love your voice even more! This kit is going to be spectacular! Your attention to detail is so impressive!
Thank you Phil, it’s funny you say that, I’ve always thought my voice was the weakest part of my channel
@@Johnbuildsiconic wrong! Your voice is very special - it’s calming and really cuts through. 👍
@@sprueVerse thank you Phil
@@sprueVerse I agree. John's voice is great, and the music in this video is the main reason I haven't watched it.
Hi John, the Dreadnought is looking good, I do like the look of the older ships, looking forward to the next episode, keep safe and well mate, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia.
Thank you les. I’m the same all the older ships have a lot more character then the modern warships
Nice vid, lovely and appropriate music
Thank you very much cardinal
Beautiful job.
Thank you Jeffrey
Very intricate build with those myriad photo etched parts … this is an iconic battleship of that era ., your painting & building skills are way beyond my capabilities.. so thank you for posting this video John
Thank you David. It’s all about having fun when your building David. If your having fun that’s all that matters mate
I John, may I ask did you consider a aftermarket wooden deck for this build, if not then could be a next time build because it makes an interesting detailed difference. Regards Dave Porter UK
Hi Dave, yes I seen the aftermarket decks and I thing I may use one in the future. But at the minute I’m having to build my models on a shoe string budget
Very good work. Looks like you paint dark color 1st then lightly brush over lighter color? Especially on the funnel to achieve that streaky effect. Or did you use thinner to remove paint? I can't tell
Hi Bobby yes I used a lighter colour over the darker to highlight the darker shadows
Hi John love your videos. What is the song that you play the beginning
Hi my friend, Ive not listened to this video for some time, I will watch it again and get back to you
What did you do with the funnel, did you paint it then remove the paint leaving a weathered appearance?
I painted it first in dark sea blue, then the top coat of grey was dry brushed to add shadows, and a two tone effect
@@Johnbuildsiconic it really makes it pop and something us mear mortals can one day try.
What do you use as a wash for the decks for weathering?
Hi Steven the deck wash is acrylic burnt umber watered down 50/50
Thanks John, I appreciate it. John should I use water or acrylic thinner?
Hi Steven. Acrylic thinner is good. I just use water atm because there’s no smell
I don't know how specific you can be but, is that burnt umber tamiya or vallejo?
Hi Steven, no the burnt umber I used is from a uk arts range. It’s come out like a paste.like a oil paint, which I like. There also a dark brown wash from tamiya that’s good. Just at the minute, I’m having to build on a shoe string budget. So I just use up what I’ve already got.
Someone please tell me what type of glue is being used
Tamiya extra fine glue
