Ok, thanks, I know A4 garages channel well. He does amazing things.
Cracking job Dan..
Thanks Andy
Hi Dan, nice job. Can you share your source for the fisher decals please?
They came from here. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185837833403?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=yvGtt7ecQFa&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=SDzGfJ43QBS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY They are uncut decals in clear backing.
Excellent build Dan, may I ask what the green polisher is? and the little square you were rubbing around the car just before that?
The drill is one similar to this (exact one is not available); amzn.to/4fMUDyf The polishing heads are these: amzn.to/4gXknso The little square? They are Godhand sanding sponges.
@@TheDanCave Great, thank you
Great work Dan! This is a cool looking livery on this car, very angular 80s style that fits the body shape so well. Happy New Year sir!
Thank you - Happy New Year to you also.
Great build ! Dan. - you were using the NOVUS polish as a glue for the wing and such? Does that work well ?
The Novus was used to polish the clear parts. They were attached used Glue n Glaze (PVA glue)
@@TheDanCave Thank you ! 👍
Awesome work on all the kits Dan - Really nicely done. Look forward to seeing what’s coming this year.
Thanks Anthony
Great builds Dan ! 👍 I love the race cars that you do especially. I hope you do more figures - you really did a good job on that one you did 🙂
Thanks Bruce
Good year, Dan. I’ve not been very productive in 2024, my resolution is to model more in 2025.
I hope you achieve it in 2025!!
Nice work Dan 👍
Thanks Adam
Top work, I forgot about the Lotus, Think I did 5 kits down on the 12 I had hoped to get done.
Thanks Shayne - must try harder!!
My vote goes to the Lotus. Nice review, quite a productive year.
Thanks Glenn
Great job 👍
Thanks 👍
Really cool models. 👍
Thank you kindly
Very nice paint detail!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Funnily enough I’m also doing a figure at the moment! My first one too. Less complex than yours.
Its always good to try something different
Excellent work Dan ! I love painting figures - usually 1/12 or 1/16. My favorites are ones with different layers of clothes, leather and boots and such. Different shades of browns. The faces are the hardest part for me but you jumped right in and nailed it right away on yours! 👍
Thanks Bruce
Hi Dan, I think for your first figure, this one turned out absolutely perfectly, it is still something I want to try, as I have a couple of figure in my stash, so keep going, I hope you had a great Christmas Day, and I hope you have a Happy New Year, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les
Thanks Les, had a great Christmas day, hope you have had a good festive time also.
Very nice build and amazing beard!
Thank you
Nice work bud....i have 6 of them in my stash and 6 037 with one resin front suspension and engine and chassis/ brakes....need to get going building.just finished the 2019 i20 still got the 2020 to do .
Thank you. I have both i20 boxings also.
yes mate just got the same model any advice on what is my best air brush gun to get etc an materials also i need to do what you have done lol we project for me ab the kid cheers
Airbrushes are a project in themselves. For starting - I think something like the UMP Apex, Badger Patriot or even the Fendga ones are fine - something to suit every budget. Best advice with airbrushes is patience and time.
I wouldn't mind a 3D printer for xmas, but alas that isn't going to happen, wife / family wont get me any model stuff, so I have to get my own, rollers would be handy. ( lets just say I'm getting some pressies from santa.
You never know, maybe Santa will think of you.
Very nice review of this very cool Hasegawa kit. I have yet to build anything from this manufacturer, but what I've seen of what they put out, they look really nice.
Some of their kits are simple, but always found they build up well.
I see on FB you’ve already finished it, quick build indeed!
Very simple kit, but a good fun build
Another great review Dan. It looks a decent kit with potential to upgrade it a bit.
There is a very good detail set from Studio 27 from recollection
Very nice job on the jeep, I liked the idea of the light layers of sand paint with the green showing through. This added a contrast from the standard desert yellow. I’d say Tamiya could revamp the kit and it would fly off the shelves! The old ones are still selling.
Thank you kindly
You hit two exactly the christmas presents I did to myself this year 😊. The Tamiya Porsche and finally got a resin 3d printer which was on my presents lists for two years now 😀
Thanks Adrian, glad I guessed well
Hi Dan, judt think all Christmas dreams are free, if I don't see you on screen before Christmas mate, all the vefy bedt to yoj and your family and gave a safe and Happy New Year, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les
Thanks Les, same to yourself.
Also the beard is looking very Santa like 😂
Well, give a year or two and I reckon there will be enough grey to do a good Santa
Also I can see some poopy in a red box 💩
Cool Optimus Prime where did you procure it pretty please 😘
The big one, that's the Lego one.
Great bunch of tips, Dan.
Thank you PJ
I hope Michelle got all the hints??
Here's hoping anyway
Actually, I like the cabinet you display your cars in.
Those are IKEA Kallax units.
I’m hoping I’ll be able to join you guys at Telford next year. And by the way, I’m local and have got a 3D printer.
Thanks Valery
Thought my ears were burning 🙉. I'm looking forward to you building the MFH and your views on them 🙂
You and me both (I think!!)
Morning Dan, all those kits look to be great scores, I look forward to watching you build them all, over time, if I don't see you before Christmas, I would like to wish you and you family a Very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les
Thanks Les, Merry Christmas to you and yours also.
That was a great display table, congratulations! I was lucky enough to be able to attend SMW this year, and got greatly inspired by the models dsplayed.
Thank you
2 floaty things? I have the ark royal floaty thing here that I got for xmas 3 years ago It may get built when I retire.
No excuse - just do it!
Great update Dan 👍 All those car kits look like great future projects. I've been on the later Yorktown CV-10 - it's a museum at Patriots Point in South Carolina (USA). I've been on two modern (active) aircraft carriers at port - it's always impressive how big the ships are. They are more or less floating cities. 🙂
I always had an interest in Naval Aviation anyway - so if I'm going to build a ship - it has to be an aircraft carrier.
Cool models. 🚙
Thank you
Lovely Build as usual and I love the way you narate the work you are doing. To be fair, the registration may have been allocated to another car completely different car, rather than a re build as a right hooker.
Thanks Richard
Very nice looking Rhino! One thing about the older Monogram 1/72 kits here on this side of the pond, at least up until very recently, is one could get them for some great prices. Accurate Miniatures was reboxing them and when they went under, a LOT of kits without decals or boxes ended up on the second-hand market. As far as naval ordnance goes, it does not weather very much at all. If the a/c is not going to be flying for more than a couple of days or has to go to the hangar bay for ANY reason ALL of that comes off, including the TER's and sometimes, the LAU's. Hope that helps in future naval aviation builds.
Thank you Calvin
Great report. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful build, looks fabulous!!!
Thank you kindly!
Great review of Telford, Was the large scale E- Type at the start the old Revell kit?👍
I thought it was, but it may actually have been the Agora part works one. Not sure.
I'm glad you made it out to the event Dan and even showed off some of your own models. Well done ! I actually prefer voice over videos of model shows because as a viewer - we get a lot more description and information about what we're looking at 👍 Thanks for sharing
Thanks Bruce
Good to see you mate 👍
You too Adam.
Great video thank Dan. Was nice to see you very briefly and say hello.
Thanks Nigel, good to see you too even if only briefly.
I would love to be able to get there
Thanks Mark, you should definitely go.
