    First off, love your content. In no small part due to your P38 video, I picked up modeling again during the pandemic after about 40 years. I had saved alot of my tools from my childhood and got to bring them back out after all this time.
    I am very close to being done with the P38 that took a lot of inspiration from yours.
    One thing that I am confused about is how you deviate from the given instructions effectively. Maybe its just experience and plenty of preplanning but I found that I tended to miss things and couldn't go back to address it because it was too late.
    Anyway, cheers from the US and post more often :)

  • @ryanhines2529
    @ryanhines2529 3 місяці тому +1

    Tip that might help. Use one of the extra canopy’s while your doing the build so you don’t have to mask, then put on the one you want at the end.

    • @TheInnerNerd

    Very nice work! I'm the process of making one now for my uncle who is ex airforce. One thing I have read from Shepard Paine was to heat and then smash a tad the bottom of the wheels to simulate the weight of the plane. I'm honestly not sure if that's correct or not since I am a filthy casual. Very nice work again, if mine turns out half as good as yours he'll be happy indeed!

    Really nice build! That kit is in my stash also. (ASfter I build about 3 of the 1/48 Airfix Mustangs!)NOT a Criticism, but there are one or 2 small pointers:
    The Later wartime Mustangs were built with only the Rear (Wingspar) wall part of the Landing gear bay painted in Zinc Chromate Yellow as the factories were pumping them out and needed to cut the time manufacturing too. The rest (Roof and Forwards walls) and struts were left unpainted. Somne ground crews would paint the bay after the first major maintenance overhaul... if the aircraft lasted that long, and usually in ZC-Green (Which was ZC-Yellow plus 15%-20% black.
    The undercoat chart you showed is a copy from North American Aviation papers and shows the different methods/components used to smooth and fill - (Not the actual colours themselves - just a representation of them). Over that base went standard grey primer and then a topcoat of dull Silver Dope/Paint. Apparently it was a "Fun" job to manually sand the wing back to NMF....post war. ALL Mustangs were made with the wing Fillers and Primers applied including the Early Allison engined ones. (P-51, 51A, A-36 and exports to the UK.)
    BTW, in case you wonder, the Airfix Mustang has good options, is easliy built, accurate (IMHO a real good deal as it is better than the 90s era Tamiya kit in some ways) and kit A-05138 (The one without the tail fillet - P-51D-5) still has BOTH tail fillets included, the factory-fitted standard and the Field-fitted Fillet colloquially referred to as the "Swayback" as it has a slight curve up to the fin Leading edge... and in 1/48 it is REALLY hard to tell them apart!)

      @iannicholls7476 Рік тому

      Sorry if this is a stupid question but I’ve never been 100% clear on this. So the top AND bottom surfaces of the wings were painted with silver dope, right? What about aircraft such as Lou IV with painted upper surfaces? Was that put on over the silver in the field? Also what about the tailplanes, were they painted silver also?

    • @brettpeacock9116
      @brettpeacock9116 Рік тому +1

      @@iannicholls7476 Most if not all D models were delivered silver/NMF from the factory and the camouflaged ones were painted after arrival in the UK. Some units (eg the 357FG) had stocks of RAF paints found on their new base (ex RAF) and used those, in other units the painting was done with standard USAAF colours, but the underside was often left silver/NMF.

    First time I heard anyone explain how you need to combine acrylic varnish with enamel washes (and vice versa).
    Everyone making tutorials skip this explanation, I've come to understand they take it for granted you'll use an acrylic varnish and then go in with enamels.
    But when people start out and buy stuff they aren't as knowledgeable and end up trying to work with what they have, which can make their life very difficult.
    In my case I bought two cans of acrylic varnish from Vallejo from the only modelling shop nearby, and when I looked for a pin wash, they only had acrylic.
    In the end I had to make my own washes, enamel and oil based.
    To make matters worse, varnish sprayed from a can cannot be applied thinly, meaning it's hard to preserve fine surface details for the upcoming wash.
    I guess it's all part of the learning process.

      I've done direct comparisons of gloss black base vs. regular grey primer and there is a difference for sure, even the paint manufacturers recommend you do so.

    Looks great! How did you spray the Mr. Color GX-2 Ueno Black? A few thin coats and then a thicker coat? I can’t get a smooth finish. Thanks!

    • @TheInnerNerd
      @TheInnerNerd  Рік тому

      Thank you. Yes a lay a mist coat down first to 'bed in' on the model. Then after that's kinda dry (like leave it 2 mins) then apply a slightly thicker coat which will cover the part suitably. The last coat can be thinned even further to be a wet coat. The levelling thinner concentration in this coat will level the paint whilst also building the colour depth by adding a third layer. Hope this helps and thanks for watching :)

    How are you avoiding the metallic paint lifting when taping over it after? Letting it dry a long time? Buffing first? No one ever explains this in any videos....yet it always happens to me.

    • @TheInnerNerd
      @TheInnerNerd  Рік тому

      I never have any problems with this and it might be down to the primer layer of Mr Surfacer. It would be a good idea to de-tack your tape too before applying it. Most of the time tape is way too sticky for the adhesion actually required, so taking some of that away before you put it onto the model will definately help.

    I have had a problem with natural metal finish models with regards to the wash stripping the extreme metal paint off. So you should only use oil for a panel line wash?

    • @TheInnerNerd
      @TheInnerNerd  Рік тому

      The paint will need some sort of clear coat. If you intend to use oil/enamel based weathering products then use an acrylic/lacquer based clear coat. This way the oils will not react with the clear coat and the paint will be safe. Hope this helps and thanks for watching :)

    • @TheInnerNerd
      @TheInnerNerd  Рік тому

      I've never had a problem with it but maybe it's the thinner paint? I would imagine that the thicker the paint it might start to gel over the period of detail painting. I have found that Citadel paints are very good for small details and I'm slowly building my collection of primary colours as well as leather type colours since these are often painted by hand and they have a great selection.

    Cellulose thinners ? 😮 Surely not ..That stuff dissolves plastic .

    • @TheInnerNerd
      @TheInnerNerd  Рік тому

      I've used cellulose thinners on a few models and it has no effect on the paint in my experience. I think because the paint is so lightly applied it helps keep any plastic from damage. I'm sure if you soaked it in thinners then yes, maybe it would be harmful. But at these volumes I have been safe. Hope this helps and thanks for watching :)
