Great video. One point to make though. The leading edges of the wings are rubber deicing boots, they would not be weathered with chipped paint. They would stay black or rubber in colour. These rubber deicing boots appeared on the B-17, B-24, B-29 and C-47 and C-54
Thank you for the information, definitely a let down from me… obviously just being lazy and not doing my research. I’ll make sure to improve for next time😉
Many cammo B-17s in Europe also had these removed too. There's footage of an out of control B-17 in cammo, in a spin, and the bare metal L/E is reflecting.@@ultralowfat
@@machmodels Came here to say this too, FYI, de-icing boots are still in use today - the ATR-42 ATR-72 and Dash 8 are among some aircraft using this method.
@@MillwalltheCat You can see deice boots on the B-17, B-24, B-29 and C-47 and C-54. I imagine the twin engine B types could have them or not depending on how they were ordered. These were rubber pneumatic boots.
I was in Dallas about 15 years ago and visited the Commemorative Air Force museum. I saw their B-24 come in to land and taxi to the hangar I was standing at, coolest sight ever. Nice build btw!
I've been in two of the still flying B-24's "Witchcraft" and "Diamond Lil" .... on the Ground! My Dad had 30 Round Trip Flights in the 445th Bomb Group B-24 "Bunnie" during WW II. The same Group as Jimmy Stewart!
The only problem I see with the execution of the kit, and it does detract, is the leading edge of the wings, tailplane, and rudders are deicing boots. There would not be the chipping of paint with these boots. If the boots were removed for combat, the base color was the color of the wing, in this case olive drab. Yes, that is picking of nits, but an important detail. Over all, I really liked this build
Awesome job! I've always loved the liberator. She's an unsung hero of the war. The B-17s and Lancasters got all the glory(love them too), but the B-24 just chugged along, bombing away lol
Real nice build on this American bomber. As an American myself the Liberator is my favorite bomber. “Hornby Hoddies Ltd” bought AirFix models in the early 2000’s and have been focused on making it a real competitor to the other high-end famous brands of model makers. This is why this B-24 model looks so good.
Incredible build! Couldn’t help but notice that you put black chipping on the leading edges black. While some aircraft did have black leading edges (I’m not sure why) 90% had a black rubber edge that could expand to break up ice on the wing. Hope this helps for future builds!
This has to be the best 1/72 Liberator I’ve seen. I can’t believe it’s Airfix. When did they start using this new plastic? From what model? I’m used to excessively soft plastic and short shot parts but good over all shape. This is a quantum leap. Great job, by the way.
I visited Hannants a few years ago and wondered around the front office pretty unimpressed until one of the staff mentioned the warehouse at the back. WOW...it was like going into Raider of the Last Ark model warehouse floor-to-ceiling boxes of kits!!!
A 18:40 the 'metal reveal' chipping shouldn't be there. The black strips are pneumatic de-icing boots, which are cycled to make a 'creeping' surface to break off ice deposits and safeguard the aerodynamics. The aircraft wouldn't be signed off as fit to fly with the boots inoperative and puncture repair patches can sometimes be seen on boots at full scale. Hope this helps - otherwise an excellent model.
Excellent video! That's a really nice looking Liberator, de-icing boots notwithstanding 😉 No worries, nothing that can't be fixed by a bloke of your calibre, if you felt the urge 🤣😂 Great stuff 👌🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Ahh the squiggle squiggle motion - best name for this technique I've heard so far. Great build Mach I love watching your builds and your talk throughs are on point and so helpful
Great video on a great subject. Nice to see simple yet well detailed kits like this being produced. While I wait for a new tool 1/32 F6F Hellcat to be produced, I’ll be adding this B-24H to my stash. Cheers
Great! Just one suggestion : I am pretty sure that the black on wings and horizontal tail leading edge was the classic anti ice Goodrich system made of inflatable rubber, so it was not subject to peel off like normal paints.
Hi Luke, that was a extremely outstanding build/painting and weathering finish, on the B-24, congratulations on a job very well done, bedt regsrds from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les
Terrific job on the B-24, really like the camo scheme and the method used to create shadows and fading. Well done Revell for including so much detail. I built a Revell B-24 kit back in the early 1970s (as a young teen) and recall that the details of the interior were basically non-existent, except for some bits and pieces in the cockpit. BTW...I enjoyed the Mosquito build :)
@@machmodels OOps....my mistake....I meant Airfix not Revell. I have Revell on the brain at the moment as I'm building the its 1/32 Ju 88 and it's driving me insane with so many issues. I did build the Airfix B-24 many moons ago and it was a very basic kit then so it's great that, in the intervening years, there have been major improvements in the quality of the new kits. Bravo Airfix!!
The B24 while parked had the ball turret retracted into the fuselage. Only once it has become airborne did it deploy into lowered position. It had to be this way because of the tricycle landing gear. Idk if you encountered any problems with affixing it due to the design aspect.
It's a splendid build and I'm thinking of buying that kit for myself. Hopefully the decals include an RAF colour scheme as scores of Liberators served in the RAF due to the Lend-Lease Agreement and I prefer them in RAF livery..
Really good model. Note for accurately depicting the leading edge, I believe that the b24 was equipped with pneumatic boots. Much like modern aircraft this is a rubber sleeve on the leading edge that can be inflated to dislodge any ice formation. These boots where made from rubber, so wouldn’t really have any chipping. (Feel free to correct me) hope that helps with any future builds
I might be mistaken but the leading edges of the wings and tail surfaces have a black rubber deicing boot . The boot allows any ice that forms on the wings to be kicked off when the boot inflates . Many modern aircraft still use this type of anti icing system . The Beechcraft King Air is an example .
I see the wheels we're not out of shape - looks like it's not a comon issues.. I'll build as soon as masks are available ;-) Nice jobs and I think the topside colour looks good!!
Hey:) Great job on your B-24... i think that you made a small mistake (but i am not 100% sure): The leading edge should stay black as these were actually rubber parts glued on the metal leading edge. Very nice work non the less. Cheers
Great tutorial, you showed some techniques I’m going to try on my current B17 build. The interior ribbing especially. I’ve been itching to get this one since I saw it online a week or so ago. It’ll probably be my next kit purchase. Haven’t seen one in stock yet in the states though, at least not wildly overpriced for a 1/72 kit anyway ($70 usd). The detail is such I wouldn’t mind paying up to $30 - 40 though.
Like a match made in heaven! The best modeller, the best kit! I had my fingers crossed that I would see a larger bomber aircraft some time soon! Keep up such amazing work!!! 😁
Great build! I've just discovered your channel and really like your fast-paced but clear style! My only feedback is that I don't think "fitment" means what you think it means 😃!
Absolutely cracking build! You certainly managed to get that one out quick - i've not even looked at the webpage for this new release from Airfix yet lol
Thank you very much! Hahaha, one of my personal favourite aircraft so I couldn’t help myself! Will you be looking to do a build on this at some point? I would be eager to see your take on it😉☺️
@@machmodels I don’t have any plans for this one at the moment, perhaps if I clear my stash a bit more to make some space… might have to do it in a different paint scheme if I do 😂
Excellent job on the build. Looks AMAZING! The only little characteristic that I don’t like, and it’s not anything to do with your work at all, is the landing gear in the extended position. It looks like the plane sits too high off the ground, too much room between the belly and the ground. In reality, I don’t believe the ball turret could be fully extended on the ground. Years ago, I had a 72 scale Liberator and it did the same thing. I always thought it looked inaccurate. The 48 scale Libs were more accurate in this case. Congrats on the build either way! Speaking of 48 scale Liberators, will you be building the new tool kit at all?? Keep up the great work! Cheers!!!
Thank you very much for the comment, I’m not too familiar on the libs anatomy so I’ll take your word for it!! Uhhmm if I could find somewhere to put it maybe!😉☺️
60-40 thinner:paint seems to be the magic number for Mr. Hobby, Mr. Color, and Tamiya, doesn't it? Got a pressure rating you spray with? I'll even convert it from Barr to psi.
Rivets and fine panel lines on a 1/72 airfix model? Let's see if they maintain this level of detail for their next plane. I never really liked the lack of finesse of detail on recent models, with those basic, disproportionate panel lines. Very good job, this model deserved love and care.

Oh wow! That would’ve been a sight and a half, thanks for the comment😉
This is probably the best model I have ever seen. Can you do a weathering tutorial because the weathering was super realistic
Great work, I’m jealous - the model isn’t available down under and you guys are already building…
Thank you! Fingers crossed it’ll make its way down there soon!😉
If you have a friend or relatives in Blighty you could ask them to post you one for your birthday 👍🇬🇧
It’s available on eBay.

My great grandfather was a tail gunner on a Libby. Family ties to the bird aside, I love the high wing and tail on the old girls.

Thank you very much! Really appreciate it👌🏻
Excellent job building and painting and detailing your Airfix B-24H Liberator!
Thank you very much buddy!😉
It’s great you mention hannants , Carmel , mick and Adie are so helpful with good advice. Nice build btw
Thank you - definitely, all top class gents😉
Surprised that with all of the great interior detail there’s not a crew. Really nice build.
I’m sure there will be extras at some point for it!☺️
