    The Airfix 54mm figure kits are a really nice series. I have put together 11 of them over the years. Love the details and super fun to put together. This particular kit took some time as I remember. A nice base make a huge difference in the display of these models. When I finish my figure models I like to spray them with dull-coat and then highlight certain parts with gloss or some form of sheen. You did a fine job on the model. I can appreciate the time you invested in it. It is a fine looking piece. Well done!

    Really nicely done all around, i love it! One of my great-grandfathers actually knew Priller, they would hit the bars in Northern France hard together. Unsurprisingly Priller married into a brewery after the war, it is still in family possession to this day. It is the Riegele Brewery in Augsburg, they even mention Josef Priller on their homepage.

  • @marknelson5929
    @marknelson5929 8 місяців тому

    Hi Michael, commendable effort!! But if you don't mind some comments - the big issue is the colour of Josef Priller's uniform, it is way way way over the top! The strong bright blue colour was never like that in real life. The box art colours showing the 'dress' uniform he is wearing to get in his BMW are way too strong. There is much info online showing the 'real' colours of the clothing which in the scale you are using will show. BUT this brings me to another point many people don't think about - scale colour in models. If you paint an Fw 190 at 1/72 scale, 1/48 scale, 1/32 and 1/24th scale, most people will use the same ratio of mix. So the colour has the same 'value' on the surface of the model irrespective of the scale - in fact i.e. the smaller the scale the lighter the paint should be. Paint manufacturers need to make paint mixes according to scale - but a bridge to far I'm sure. Some really keen modellers are aware of this and do their own scale mixes, But amazingly this was discussed i.e. scale colour on models in an Airfix Magazine in the early 1970s when I was a kid. All the very best, a great model you have done!!!

    • @michaelcifra4696
      @michaelcifra4696 8 місяців тому

      Probably not, I just matched the colour that was on the box art. With his bright red car, he was probably a very showy, gaudy man. The other issue is that the colour matching on the tv screen isn't matching what I see in real life - I probably need another camera.

    Wonderful work. One observation. The spoken part warns of an approaching alien. The head bubble is extended as if the robot is at full alert. But the right arm is flaccid, as if at rest. Wouldn't it have been better to turn the arm to arc upward as if at full alert?

    • @michaelcifra4696
      @michaelcifra4696 8 місяців тому

      That would have been nice, but the internals of the model was actually a bit tight, it was bad enough to put in LED's much less servos etc

  • @paulbennett4548

    A cracking build lad but you forgot to add the lights. I added the headlights and some interior ones to light up Grommet and the rabbit on the passenger street. I have just started building the Top Bun van based on the Airfix kit and aftermarket 3d printed parts. Keep building.

  • @jpwphotographicstudio3891

    Splendid result. I'm struggling with the Scots Gray at the moment. Recently got the Polish Lancer and a French Old Guard .. My dad did most of these series back in the day 70s. Dad would take about 12 months to finish one wish he was stll around to ask how he did the damn straps experimenting with paper various types at the moment .. They are certainly a challenge 😂😂. You have done a good job on face I must say. The horse though possibly a little too shiny overall, you could matt down some areas. Lovely bit of modelling hats off to you.😊

  • @donwilsmore3945

    Hi Michael, considering how difficult these early Airfix kits can be and, how much work is required to get a decent result, I think you have made a good effort with this subject. Well done mate, well worth the vidio to see how you completed it.😀

  • @wingopen
    @wingopen Рік тому

    I don't like the horse finish, same color all the way, you would have better watched some pictures about real bay horses: they always show a tones graduation and legs are black from knees to hoofs eventually interrupted by white bands if present. Also, you painted horse tongue a reddish color instead of pink-flesh. In the end the brake in his mouth is out of scale.

    You did a really nice job on this kit. As a huge fan of Lost in Space, and the robot in particular (I watched it in syndication when I was little), I always wished that they'd made the model more accurate, but a good paint job can go a long way toward making its flaws less noticeable.

    Superb work on the Cuirassier. Excellent paintwork......very colorful and striking. I also liked the chinstrap technique. The detail on the base compliments the figure wonderfully. My only suggestion is making deep furrows behind the various canon balls.....like they dug into the earth as they halted. Happy modeling my friend. Bill
