Might be interesting to know that later made Horsa gliders interiors were not painted up to the ceiling. They were painted from the floor just underneathe the windows. The rest would have the natural (ply)wood coulour. there were at least 2 reasons for this. It would speed up the production and it would save a lot of (paint) weight. I have copies of original documentation stating this. In the Wolfheze glider collection there is an original piece of forward fuselage were the original colour still can be seen. In the Pegasus museum in France there is a original rear piece of fuselage wre the entire interior is painted green. The Horsa fuselage was constructed frome seperately made tubes that were fitted together and painted. Different parts could be made by other manufacterers. Cockpit tail wings etc. These would be fitted together by civilian workers at Brize Norton.
This kit has just come in the shop and thinking of it so glad to see 1 35 build and not the italiri 72nd looks big!
Superb work as always Shane this is going to look amazing when finished. Great attention to detail
thanks Jack for your support! really glad you enjoyed it :)
Where is part three? I was enjoying this!
Hey! The videos are amazing, congratz! Where is part 3?
More videos!
thanks mate, I will get back onto this build in a few weeks, as its a pig of a model and I've burned out a little on it
Been waiting for this one ,I also used your tips to paint the tank commander in my icon. Many thanks for your videos
Hope the tips worked out! Glad you enjoyed the video a lot of work went into one
Only my fourth 1/35 figure so yeah I think that video made me skip a few years learning curve , I painted around 15'ish 1/72 figures before but never faces. From one Celt to another thank you
hahah always happy to be of help !
Great job matey !! It's cirtainly fighting you mate ! Keep it up your doing an amazing job !
Mottys Military Models - Steve Mottram thanks mate it's been a right pain to put together but should look class once done
Another master class again take care my friend
thanks Neil ! though its more of a masterclass of me losing my mind trying to make parts fit :p
I do hope you will finish this build!
unfortunately this kit now resides in the bin as it was an absolute pig of a kit
you do a great job battling this pig of a kit! i suspect that large plastic pieces like the fuselage plates kinda lose their accuracy due to shrinking and warping. smaller parts behave better usually :)
I am scrapper so sheer stubbornness alone is defeating this beast haha :P
I think that has something to do with it, but honestly I feel they simply "out tooled" themselves with this kit
When are you about to post part 3, part 4 etc etc ????
Like to see the final result
Gr.
Big old project Shane but looking seriously nice mate. That interior green colour rocks
thanks Mark ! its really something to behold ! I actually really that shade of green it really stands out ! thought for some reason I kept calling it interior green in the narration lol
Nice one Shane, always enjoy your video's :)
Thanks Richard !
Worse here in Scotland in the summer! My secondary bullet water trap at the airbrush end cracked at the valve the amount of water I'm getting just now is crazy without a secondary water trap! I have to let the compressor run without the airbrush connected to drain it! That's with the heat through summer aswell i have a 3rd to connect now one bolted to the dest the same size as compressor one for the middle of the line and a new sparmax silver bullet on order! The last 6 months tops the airbrush end water traps before going brittle at the valve screw! It's odd it's like the water eats away at the plastic thread when press to empty it unless it's got thinner mixed through somehow I don't see how that could happen even with a back flow! good old acid water here lol
Good job on the model. What was the width of each invasion stripe you used? Interested to know.
The kit provides a basic measurement of each strip in the painting guide for kit but I can not remember the extra size or its accuracy unfortunately
Yaiks...that fit problems reminds me of my very bad experience with us diamond wrecker by mirror models :( And thank you for your tips with vallejo model color Shane. Great job
Lukas Giant no worries mate glad to be of help I might do a short video soon on spraying model color as a lot of people say it cant be done. Also thanks for the heads up with the wrecker was thinking of adding it to my collection, Is it a bad kit?
Shane Smyth - scale models That would be helpful for vallejo model users mate. Actually that diamond wrecker kit is very detailed kit but lots of problems with it. These problems are :
1. Gaps
2. Hard and britle plastic on some sprues
3. Very big sprue gate,so need a hot knife to remove it from the sprue to avoid breakage
4. Unclear and shrinking locating points even sometimes no locating points
5. Lots of shrinking parts so need many adjustments and drilling or make the hole wider to fit perfectly (even for attaching headlights to the fenders i need to drilling the hole wider so the pin can insert the hole on the fender)
6. Vague and missing instructions
But with a lots of patience and with 1 or 2 crate of beers that would be an amazing kit lol.
Sorry for my bad english :) cheers
your english is fine my friend so no need to worry !
I am very temped to try one of these kits some time in the future as they are often seen with Shermans
Great Work Lad!
Your modelling skills are excellent!
It's a shame that this huge, pig of a model, was possibly, hideously molded out of alignment, by manufacturer.
You deserve great credit, for putting an excruciating amount of work, into correcting the outside panels.
it is possible that some of the parts were molded warped but its a very poorly designed kit, I've tried to build the fuselage but the fit is terrible and the wings don't fit as an result
@@longlance67 Well, you deserve great credit for accomplishing what you did with this pig of a kit.
A shame, that's a poorly designed kit.
It's probably best to move on, when a bad kit becomes a time sucker.
Great Work, Shane!
@@larrydee8859 its beginning to look like it might get discarded at this stage, but I will have a few more cracks at it to see if I can salvage it
@@longlance67
Your Great modeling skills, really show!
Well; Give it one more, good shot at it, if you feel up to it, Shane.
Your modeling skills, are Grand!
Great Work!
Hi mister Shane, great work, amazing, sorry for my poor englihs.
But i'm disapointed, just one question, where is a part 3 o part 4, the end or finallyz our horsa and complete paint??
Thank for your art.
Manu
unfortunately this build is a write off as its beyond saving so there will not be any more videos I am sorry to say!
Need part 3 please been following this build but it all stopped
unfortunately this kit got lost in a move sadly
@@longlance67 that sucks mate, I’ll send you mine you can build & paint it, post it to you tube then send it back to me lol 😂
looks very interesting mate.
its a quite a different build experience indeed !
Thank you for the great video. Really enjoy your commentary. Lol...
you mean my journey into insanity as I sand my wits away :P haha thanks mate !
Lol... those seams. Well probably the real thing didn't piece together exactly right so... accuracy in modeling? :D
Maybe we should set you up with a Patreon beer fund. hehe
Thanks for part 2 and looks good (even with the gaps)!
thanks Jim! I think some of the seams are indeed present on the real thing, just need to figure out which need to stay :P Google to rescue haha
hahaha The Horsa Beer Fund :P
thanks again for the opportunity to build this its a great experience
What happened to part 3 I will say I've had no problems building this kit,I also have the Mk 11 so will try put video of my building of another which will be a Mk 11
You should upload your work on this subject dude, this model unfortunately became a pig of kit for me, which is properly down to me inexperience with the fine tolerances need with aircraft
When is the 3rd and/or 4th part coming ???
Still waiting for the rest of the assembly ....
unfortunately you will be waiting indefinitely on this one, this build is beyond me as the fit ect is a disaster, though I may return to subject again in a rerun but we will see
Did you finish this Horsa, Shane ?
I intend to get this kit before it's gone forever and would be interested in the final steps.
unfortunately this kit met with disaster so there won't be any more videos in the series unless I decide to get a new kit and start from scratch again
@@longlance67 Too bad ! :-(
Hey Shane, any tips on painting the British Denison smock because I just bought Dragon's 1/35 scale British paratroopers which requires me to paint camouflage patterns
Hey randy I don't have mention advice to offer on Denison smocks as I've never painted them, but I would recommend googling it as I am sure there must be painting guide or tutorials out there even the wargaming guides are good
Which btw, I think I'm going to watch A Bridge Too Far again
Contrary to popular believe a lot of the Horsa (and waco) gliders were not just one way aircraft. Many of the gliders used in Normandy that were in good condition were checked and if necessary repaired by RAF maintenance units. Also useful parts were retrieved. These were send back to Britain by road or glider pick up / glider snatch. ua-cam.com/video/Dgu5yh0HkgY/v-deo.html
Great stuff!! How do you hold your figures while painting them/what base do you use to hold them still?
CoffDaddyJr I find gluing a piece of plastic sprue to the foot works, or you could use an old empty paint tin/bottle and hold the figure in place with blue tack or glue works for me.
the main method I use is using a cork from a wine bottle, then taking a paperclip and drilling it into foot of the figure and a dab of superglue to fix it to the figure and then a dab on other end to fix it to the cork as I push the pin in
Hi, cannot find Part III, where is it located?
It is still in production
@@longlance67 So I assume the crying and rocking in a dark corner took longer than anticipated then?!! ;-)
No part 3 yet?
been working on this kit on and off the last few months, its such a pig of a model with consent filling I will get back to it eventually but it is not a fun build
No problem! Thanks for your reply
no worries mate, do keep tuned as I hope to get it done before the summer us out
No part 3 huh?
unfortunately it seems not to be likely, this is possibly one of the worse kits I've ever built nothing fits, nothing lines up, I spent about two weeks alone on this kit during the summer to try to get the wings and fuselage sections to least crudely lineup but not even the wings would even sit on the frame work so I am not sure I will be able to save this kit
@@longlance67 then I shall stay away from Bronco kits!
@@henryschmidt636 unfortunately I can't really recommend their kits to anyone
@Shane Smyth - scale models are their armor kits equally bad?
those seats.....
Not sure that normal weathering is right for these aircraft, Gliders by their nature are a single use vehicle and almost all would be brand new and never flown before
This a fair point, as you are indeed right that weathering internally would be at minimum. Put it down to artistic license on my part
