I prefer the Vallejo model air and the AK 3rd gen acrylics, they are very reliable and easy in the handling & cleaning

@chrisveya7556 thank you. I don't really want troublesome paint, I'll be very happy with something that is easy to apply, gives a good finish and is easy to clean.

I havent tried these yet, but i will give them a shot👍🏻

Yes most of the new introduced paints are acrylics but not all of them. There are some new type of laquer paints as well. Let me know how you like the AK 3rd Gen👍🏻

You are exactly right, it depends on the environment and the situation at the time. This is how i will try to decide in the future where to apply which effect and not on the amount of different weathering products i own😄. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback!

😅meanwhile i know, back then i didnt had a clue how diese wunderschönen neuen Maschinen are working!

@@chrisveya7556 😉

Ah really? Interesting, i might try it out as well to see the differences

Ah really? Thats interesting, but between these acrylics the price difference is at a small level. And these bottles last quite a while (in the scale i use them though)

@@chrisveya7556 I own a hobby shop and sell the Vallejo for $4 Canadian(.23 cents per ml, and with the new 18ml bottles, brings it down to .22 cents per ml). If I had the AK in the shop they would be $5.75(.34 cents per ml), and the Atom paints would be $6.75(.34cents per ml) All 3 come from Spain, so any import taxes, duties, etc, etc, added to them, would be the same. The Atom paints intrigue me, but really don't look like they offer much, if any advantage over Vallejo

I also like the satin look the red line paints get when completely dry, i asume its even better with the laquer line. Interesting what you have noticed about the paint being easily chipped away, because with the acrylics its the opposite, Vallejo is more fragile for instance Thanks for the feedback!

@@davidsmithson9236 oh sounds interesting, i have heard about once but didnt remember at all. I will do some research to it👍🏻 Thanks for the feedback!

@@vincentfiore2228 i work with acrylics mostly so i havent any other Hataka than the red line ones. Maybe the colour tones are more accurate in the other lines they have Thanks for the feedback!

@@MidcoastModeler i believe enamel paints were much more accurate then acrylics for a long time. But i also believe some acrylic manufacturers are catching up meanwhile. Maybe not Hataka, but AK 3rd Gen and also Vallejo are putting quite an effort in research. I could be wrong. But ive seen a very interesting RLM colour chart by Vallejo. Thanks for the feedback!

@@chrisveya7556 I do love my enamels and still have several hundred good bottles of Model Master to use but with a stash of over 700 kits I think I’m going to have to embrace acrylics as well. Maybe when and if I get my channel started we could collaborate on something. I’m in the state of Maine in the U.S. so perhaps via zoom? Always a pleasure sir.

Chris the smell from the Hataka paints is more likely a hardener in order the give it durability. Most acrylics uses a plastics as there mediums as where enamels uses an oil for there. As for me I prefer enamels.

@@MidcoastModeler over 700!? Wow! Thats a lot of kits to be painted 😄👍🏻. Yes lets go! I will have to install a live stream set up one day in the future anyway👌🏼

@@richardjordan5036 i knew somebody will tell me what it is. Its very likely to be the hardener, explains the higher durability compared to Vallejo for instance Thanks for the feedback!

Yes hot water is really nice to clean after using acrylics, i maybe have to install a coffee machine in my hobby room👍🏻😄

@@chrisveya7556 I am going to put our old Keurig coffee maker in my paint room.

Yeah i think me neither Thanks for the feedback!

@@chrisveya7556 your welcome buddy I found the very watery too

@@chrisveya7556 I use Vallejo model air and Tamiya as my go to paints and I have a set of the new Ak atom

​@@duncanling2127Atom is real crap to airbrush though , ok for handbrush but colors are very flat looking

That’s a shame :(. I am not a fan of mig

Without black primer its really bad with the colour tones of these paints. I didnt expect this tbh Thanks for the feedback!

I've used Lifecolour and Hataka and was happy with them both, but preferred the Lifecolour RAF colours. Just looked a nicer satin finish. Found the Hataka easier to lay down though. Just trialling Atom but think their accuracy is a bit off as well. E.g. their RLM76 is actually sold as Pale Grey, as if they are saying 'It'll do'

I think AK invested a lot in colour tone research, looking at their wide tone range. As well as Vallejo, they have very informative guides about the different tones of WW2 camo colours. You mean Ammo re-uses the same colours for different products?? Thanks for the feedback!

@@jabonorte It's a shame they seem to be rushing out 'near enough' sets - it will damage their reputation.

@@chrisveya7556 Yes AK have done a lot of work for the Real Colour range; I used to use these before I switched to using only water based acrylics. With AMMO, not exactly - they haven't tried to palm them off as something different (they are still labelled as the original colour), they seem to have just included them in a set as the nearest match they have. The colour choice in the RAF Early WWII box is a bit odd too. Sky doesn't look too bad but it's labelled Sky Green - there was no such colour officially. And they've included 'Duck Egg Green' which again wasn't really an official colour - just a descriptive colour of Sky; until supplies of Sky became available, I'm sure some local mixes would have looked like AMMO's Duck Egg Green in early/mid 1940 - but AMMO would have been far better off putting in Black (fighter spinners and props and night bomber undersides) and Grey-Green (all aircraft cockpits).

Thanks! It was my first try, because i dont build jet aircraft so often. I basically watched this nice Vallejo tutorial video as a guideline: ua-cam.com/video/4ej8IRbilUg/v-deo.htmlsi=BWNtrQMSZPC3y6Zi

I think you can never have enough P-51's😄

@@chrisveya7556 then it’s settled. I’m getting one more. Another 1/72 kit is coming out soon though. 2147. Dual combo.

Thanks for the feedback!

Exactly 👍🏻

If you mean the new Eduard carrier film decals with "rubbish", the answer is yes.

@@chrisveya7556 Yes, but also pigment defects. I have a Zero in 1/48 and a Bf 109F in 1/72 both with pigment defects in the decals. My thought was if Eduard had improved their decals recently? I personally think that one of the best things about Eduard's kits are the many decals options.

Thanks for the feedback!

Well i see it the opposite way, a less detailed model kit is more challenging because you have to add them details yourself and this requires a certain creativity. On the other hand, i think a highly detailed kit provides everything you just have to assemble it. It maybe takes more patience yes, but in my experience less creativity is needed, if everything is provided already.

I dont do a lot of unboxing videos but since this one is extra nice and brand new i thought i just punch it out fast, so interested people can see the box content Thanks for the feedback!

So with the four P-51 you gonna end up with, you can do more marking versions..smart! There are so many, its a pity to just put the left over decals aside for good

Thank you for the niceness Bill! I wouldnt call myself an expert, maybe an expert in having the need to share my opinion 😄. This P-51 will be next on the workbench

Having fun is never really a waste i believe

This was a special pre-order offer which is still visible on the Eduard website (incl. the price of 35 €). It wasnt given to me for free

@@chrisveya7556 I don't know which Eduard site you're looking at , it shows discontinued, every model website in the USA show it preorder around $80.00 before freight, some $60.00. So if it is discontinued or not even available or in a pre order status - how did you get your kit. It really doesn't matter because Eduard has turned into a bait and switch company and they think they are the only game in town - I will never buy from them again. There are better companies.

Thanks for the feedback!

@@chrisveya7556 my pleasure nice to meet you :)

Yes exactly, i found out after i finished the video

Sobald ich meine tolle Heller Su-27 fertig habe, geht's los mit der P-51

@@chrisveya7556 (Ich habe Ihr Gebäude gesehen.) Ich hoffe, es wird die ukrainische Luftwaffe sein, und natürlich hoffe ich, dass es Ihnen gut geht und Sie keine Verletzungen davontragen.)

It looks like a lot at first, but if each marking option is separated its manageable i guess🤞🏻

@@chrisveya7556 i wish you luck

Yes the pigments can be mixed with water or thinner to create home made washes. Thanks for the feedback!

With the method i use in the video, i've never lost anything so far🍀
