I also am a great admirer of your work! Now I know you think you don’t have to give a step by step because we’re not beginners, but your Inca Technique is so new to us that I think you need to give an in-depth tutorial on it. This technique has opened my eyes about weathering that I don’t want to go back to the old ways! I’m a retired Aerospace engineer but I need to learn your technique but there are missing pieces that I don’t understand. Please share more on this. I would even pay for it. Please consider it. Thank you, Bill
David R Lentz, Columbus, Ohio, USA (Saturday, 6 July, 2024) EDITED TO CORRECT ERRORS Your painting of an early Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress USAAF Heavy Bomber replica to suggest the effects of weathering, wear, etc., is the subtlest, most aesthetic, and the most realistic I ever have seen in these UA-cam videos here. Are you in your profession a fine artist rendering lush, verdant landscapes of the countryside; cosy, pastoral village scenes; and grand vistas of majestic peaks rising into the white cumulus clouds in the bright azure sky of early morn as they stand in silent sentry over deep, mysterious vales lost in the tenuous, diaphanous mists of a primordial past? So many model builders here make their reproductions of combat aircraft look as though they had spent the entire war to that point under the noontime sun of a parched desert, hip-deep in the mud of a sultry swamp, and awhirl in a storm-tossed gale-all simultaneously!
Interestingly studys show that the painted b-17´s flew a little faster than the bare metal ones. Ironicly this means for the bare metal ones to keep up with the painted ones a higher fuel consumption. Seen on the channel : WW2 US bombers.
I feel its a shame about the HK kit. While the Monogram kit may seem antique but The profile is far better with the older kit and on most of the fuse surfaces the raised panels are far more accurate.

Thank you for this video.... Big help for me building the kit
Great Content Video, now lets see that Natural Metal B-17😊
Yes one gallon of paint would be around 7 to 12 pounds which means 700 plus gallons would put 3500 kg or so of additional load on the big bird.
Interestingly studys show that the painted b-17´s flew a little faster than the bare metal ones. Ironicly this means for the bare metal ones to keep up with the painted ones a higher fuel consumption. Seen on the channel : WW2 US bombers.
Awesome 👌
Nice!

As always, the ‘background music’ is SO distracting, and covers up the spoken commentary.
Why ado almost ALL UA-camrs think this ‘noise’ is desirable?
