Really enjoying these videos. I've definitely come to the conclusion that I really don't want to have to order tons of detail sets and replacement stuff. (Waiting on a bunch of resin pilots right now and I hate it) So learning hoe to get the most out of the kit is a good skill to have.
Great video thanks. I'm just back into this game after some 40yrs off and this is the first video I've seen that actually makes me want to try this on my next model. Think I need to invest in some small brushes for dry brushing with !!!!
Nice vid! need this info as well as painting pilots. Yes definitely, why should I go back outside to my vehicle for the groceries if I can possibly help it! lol
Nice, job clear video and valid points. I have found using Mig gun metal modeling pigment and rubber tiped brushes in a similar manner as dry brushing can add a great effect, too. Especially around instrument bezels, circuit breakers and edges where wear occurs. It's sort of a dry brushing/graphite pencil mashup but works well.
Also, this lets you work a little faster. When applying decals (at least for me) I let them dry for a day or at the very least a few hours. I don’t like pausing the action.
Okay.....I have seen three (3) of your videos....all good mind ya, and Doing it "Old School" is what I do as well.......and I STILL plan on doing this, but I have also purchased PE for the panels, and Even bought exactly Two (2) of the 'Quinta' stuff, ( But they only have 1/48 scale AND where they come from ....... arrggggghhhhh ). But, again, using a 'NATO Black' & a clear coat ...... couldn't this be done by spraying 'Gloss Black' Or would that make the panels TOO shiny?? Serious question. Another question about your videos ......... What Scale do you work with?? I have 90 - 95% 1/72 with a few /48s. Have you done this on a 48 scale of smaller....or is this a 32 scale???
Don't get me wrong, I am also a fan of 3d cockpit sets but I thought the kit parts were detailed enough in this case. Yes, gloss black would definitely do the trick. It might be a bit "too black" for the model though. But that is a matter of taste. I am mostly 1/48 scale but I dabble here and there.
Love that you used an F-14 for this painting example, I'll be following your tips as soon as I build a larger scale Turkey.
sad to say that I never thought of adding the light grey wash after the panels had been painted. Good tip!

Thanks for this demo, it’s a huge help. Is there a way to use tweezers to apply tape without the tape sticking to the tweezers?
That is a good question. Generally I use the "tiny bit of tape on the tweezer; lot of tape on the surface" method. Not very scientific though.
Which color of the panel line wash did you use?
Sir hi, instead of applying paint with a brush on buttons, I use a paint marker with a nib size 7mm, it really does a good job, try it yourself.
Great tip!
Hi! When you say clear coat with Tamiya clear (+ nato black), do you mean varnish or another product? Excellent work!!!
HI there - I mean Tamiya X-22 Clear
