you are an awesome scale modeller!
This beginning to look very nice
Looking good; learning for when I start mine! Thanks for the excellent videos.
Try to avoid my mistakes ;)
Not seen many of them!
Very nice finish, the extra prep goes a long way
Yep, there was a lot of extra prep ;)
Excellent work my friend, you really made a great job of the B-17 and as for the B-17 paintwork, just superb. I know I normally praise the paintwork from modellers, but this one is just top class and you have achieved a great result from your hard work.
I hope that you enjoy your next project just as much and have plenty of fun with the build,
Joe
Thanks :)
I hope I'll get some more fun from this one, because it's far from being finished ;)
Thank you very much for your GREAT instructional videos. I'm a new modeler and I've learned a lot watching your videos! Very well done. As an idea ... Maybe have a written review of the steps as well as specific paints (,with model numbers) etc. Thanks again for taking the time to do these.
You're welcome :) Thanks for the advice, I've been thinking about improving this channel recently, so I appreciate this kind of feedback :)
Awesome work.
Thanks :)
Czekałem na malowanie powierzchni i się doczekałem :) Bardzo ładnie siadły Alclady i panelowanie robi bardzo miłe wrażenie :) świetna robota. Pozdrawiam
Dzięki :)
Co do panelowania, to myślałem że różnica barw będzie większa... no ale czasami lepiej, żeby efekt był zbyt delikatny niż zbyt nachalny ;)
Jak zapuścisz linie czarnym washem, to panele będą bardzo ładnie wyeksponowane. I wtedy będą się ładnie mienić. Z resztą i tak już teraz wyglądają naprawdę świetnie. Można też użyć innej metody. Czarny podkład a na niego biała lub szara farba na panele które mają być jaśniejsze. Potem całe lakiery Sido itp.. Na koniec malujesz sobie cały model Duraluminum. Generalnie wyszło super.. panele nie kontrastują ze sobą bardzo mocno. Czekam na kolejne aktualizacje z niecierpliwością :)
Też liczę, że wash poprawi kontrast. Zobaczymy, mam nadzieję niebawem :)
Great paint. 👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks :)
Добрый вечер. Отлично получается. Ждал видео с нетерпением.
Терпение - это добродетель ;)
Херасе, ты и по нашему разумеешь. Думал поляк говорящий по английски.
Недавно Google translate отлично поработал :P
Świetnie to wygląda. Chyba w moich produkcjach muszę też trochę wydłużyć niektóre sceny. No i w końcu skleić jakiś wielki model. ;)
Ja akurat mam ochotę na odpoczynek od bombowców ;)
A skoro poruszyłeś temat, to dopytam - które sceny miałeś na myśli, że były za długie? Bo może to ja powinienem skrócić moje a nie Ty wydłużyć swoje ;).
Ja generalnie robię tak, że staram się wydłużać sceny malowania, a skracać sceny np. zdejmowania i nakładania masek (chyba, że ktoś to robi tak świetnie, jak Ty). ;) Natomiast nie odniosłem wrażenia, żeby coś było za długo. ;)
Uff ;)
A previous post asked a question, "What is future"? In the USA, it's now marketed as "Pledge Floor Care". It used to be marketed as "Future" and in watching modelling videos, almost everyone calls it "Future" which is very confusing to us new guys getting back into the hobby.
Yeah, I know it's confusing. I stopped using brand names in my more recent movies, since this compound has different name in every country (Pledge, Future, Sidolux and probably plenty more). I say when I use a gloss varnish, but the viewer has to find a local equivalent himself.
looking sweet cnt wait
Hiya! I’m at the stage of masking for the darker alclad panels. Did you tape directly on to the bare lighter aluminium alclad ie without a coat of gloss? I’d hate to tape it up and then the masking pulls off some of the paint!!
Well, I didn't cover the surface...
To prevent the tape from taking too much pigment with it, you can lower its adhesiveness by attaching it to your skin once or twice. Simple trick, but works as a charm :)
Of course better try it somewhere it won't be visible if something goes wrong.
great tip! tyvm :)
Nice work. Just a suggestion you might find useful: try a dedicated primer airbrush like an Iwata RG-3. You won’t have dusty overspray resulting in a coarse finish that you need to sand.
Thanks, I'll read some more about this airbrush :)
Good point. I’ve had to sand every layer or paint to get to the finish I’m after...
What is the white glue you used to temporally attach canopy?
It's ordinary white glue, one children use for gluing paper and wood.
What red and olive drab did you use. Was it acrylic? Have you had and problems spraying an acrylic over a lacquer?
Both of them was Tamiya acrylic. There was no problem with spraying, but it does not grip to the surface well. I tried not to touch the painted surface, because it could scratch. That's a good way to make scratches deliberately, if you want your plane to look more worn out, but I didn't want to do this.
After couple layers of gloss varnish, colours are well protected now.
I notice you hold the parts together and then add thin glue to the joints. Do you have to sand of the glue once it has dried?
That's the beauty of this glue. The excess dries fast and doesn't leave marks on the surface. It basically melts the plastic in the crevice between parts but dries instantaneously everywhere else without melting the plastic.
bardzo dobre malowanie teraz też robię bombowiec lecz niemiecki nie mogę doczekać się ostatniego odcinka z serii o b17
Jeszcze sporo pracy nad nim zostało, pewnie będzie więcej niż jeden film w tej serii :).
To bardzo dobrze . Miło się to ogląda , mam nadzieję że kolejny film już niedługo :)
Teraz zostały etapy, które najbardziej lubię, więc pewnie nie będę długo zwlekał z kolejnym filmem :)
Pozdrawiam
Why did you first paint the Clear parts with silver?
Because interiors of this plane should be silver. This way painted part of the clear element is silver from the outside and inside.
If I used grey/black primer, those parts would have been grey/black inside.
I am in awe of the results you get, but I wonder why you apply Future on top of what looks like the base coating for your aluminum finish. I know that the olive-drab sections are anti-glare and will be matte finish, and the de-icing boots on the leading edges of the tail and wings are a kind of rubber, and will be a semi-gloss black. The difference in the aluminum color sections isn't a surprise, knowing your high standards, is there any color difference in the fabric-covered control surfaces? Thanks for sharing your fine work, your videos are like college seminars. Keep it up!
That's a lot of questions ;)
I'm not sure if I understand them all correctly.
As for the Future on the base coating - I put it on the whole plane, to protect it before decaling and weathering. I'll matt those olive drab patches later.
I didn't paint ailerons with another paint, they have a little different texture, so I hope it'll be enough.
Que pegante utilizas para los cristales??
I use two. White glue when I dont want to fix part permanently and Tamiya Extra Thin Cement, when I want to.
Hello again! Rookie question here but what are you using with the micromesh sandpaper for lubricant?
It's dihydrogen monoxide ;) but water is exactly as good.
H2Ohhhhh (sorry ;-)
Przekonałes mnie do maskola zacznę go uzywac . mam pytanko czego uzywasz do robienia linek antenowych. Nie mogę sie doczekac na finish Pozdrawiam
Fajnie, że się udało przekonać, to wygodna rzecz ;)
Co do linek, to poprzednio robiłem je z żyłki, ale czytałem że cieńsze są nitki z rajstop, także teraz wypróbuję ten sposób :).
Pozdrawiam
What are you using for masking fluid?
Masking fluid :P It's a product made by the Wamod company. But there's a lot of equivalents on the market.
Do you use any thinners with the Alclad?
No, Alclads are ready to paint straight from the bottle.
Are humbrol metal cote spray cans Any good
I've never used them, sorry.
Such a beautiful kit, I was wondering if you'd mind providing a list of paints you used please? It would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Ellis
I've used two Alclad paints - aluminium and duraluminium and Alclad dedicated primer.
Thank you so much, what airbrush did you use as I'm having such a difficult time choosing one. Currently looking at the Iwata Neo, Revelution and Eclipse but am very open to other suggestions.
How did you add the glue to the clear parts without fogging the clear parts? thanks
I've used two kinds of glue to attach clear parts here - Tamiya Extra Thin Cement and white glue. Neither of them fogs the clear parts.
@@Big-Modeller Wow I didn't know that I will try it next as I have always used white glue to fix clear parts
Just to be extra careful, test it for yourself on some expendable clear element. Just to be sure ;).
What kind of paint do you use?
I used Alclads here.
I would use Tamiya gloss black for the base colour, then use your alclad colours.
Yep, you're right. I would have done it this way too today.
What is the purpose of black colour painting?
Gloss black is the proper background for metallic paints. It makes them look more shiny.
Hey Big Modeller, Will it look good with Vallejo Grey Primer under Alclad II Magnesium for this kit? Cheers.
Best choice for natural metal finishes is the black primer, not grey. If I was doing this plane again I would use a gloss black enamel paint instead of primer.
@@Big-Modeller Will Alclad II 305 Gloss Black base do the job?
It should be perfect for the task - it's gloss black and it's dedicated for Alclad lacquers :)
@@Big-Modeller Thank you, you are such a big help for me! :)
No problem mate :)
Why was the glass parts white glued temporarily?
Because I didn't want to attach guns at the early stage of building. I would have broken them for sure so I've decided to do it later.
why dont you put link to instagram to the description of video?
That's a great idea actually ;)
I gave the link on my channel's main page, but it would be more convenient to have it under the movie, especially for those watching it on their phones.
Thanks :)
Great Video, question - doesnt the silver lift off when u mask?
No, those Alclads stick quite firmly to the surface.
Thanks for the prompt reply, I had problems with Alclad after spaying and later masking to paint other colors. Did you have to apply a clear coat to ensure lustre doesnt fade? Thanks
Maybe it's a matter of proper primer. I've used one dedicated to those paints.
As for the clear coat - I applied many layers of gloss varnish on this model. After every step to be honest (before decals, after decals, after the wash etc.)
thanks
También me gusta dedicarme a los modelos. De lo contrario, muy agradable :)
Muchas gracias :)
Great work !
Always 1 who doesn't want to learn something or maybe you got the dislike because
he/she can't do what you do model wise lol
Everybody's entitled to his opinion.
I like to think about such people, that they want to motivate me to try harder ;).
You sir are dead right, not only brilliant at building/painting kits but a great attitude as well.
I've been called "sir" for the first time in my life. I don't know how to react for such nobilitation ;)
Długo panu zajęło malowenie tej B-17 ?
Samo malowanie? Może z godzinkę ;).
Aaarrrr. I just snapped the wheel under carriage set up. Still good build
Shit happens mate ;)
A ta srebrna farbka jeliej fitmy mogę prosić o numer, symbol ?
Na tym samolocie użyłem dwa metalizery. Oba to Alclad II - ALC101 Aluminium oraz ALC102 Duraluminum.
Big Modeller dzieki wielki
Polecam się na przyszłość :)
7:02 "now a couple of coats of future" - What is future? I'm sorry I didn't get what that was. Great videos BTW, thanks so much for posting.
Future is a brand of floor polish, that many modellers use as a gloss varnish.
Ok cool , thanks.
thanks.
I believe it's marketed outside the US as "Johnson's Kleer"
По склу перший шар має бути не сріблом! А кольором кабіни - Olive drab або Zinc Chromate Yellow
Dzięki za przydatne info.
Wow why so many coats of paint..I counted 4 plus the 2 coats of future?
Honestly, I don't remember how many layers of paint I put on this model. I might have overused them, but I wanted this plane to be reeeeally glossy ;).
@@Big-Modeller I did not mean to criticize, actually I was curious more than anything as I am trying to improve my models at the painting end. your model looks awesome and I am still in the learning phase of the airbrush. Gratz on a beauty!
That's ok mate :) I'm still in the learning phase of the airbrush too. Sometimes I do something until the result satisfies me and don't even focus on how many coats of paint there was.
@@Big-Modeller What air brush are you using?
I don't even know. The cheapest one, I got it with the compressor.
Like is said before, love your channel lose that God awful music. 👍👍
