    I’ve just been bought this kit for Christmas, and my first thought was.... “I wonder if David has built one of these?” ... and sure enough, there’s an excellent build here. Thank you David.

    What can I say. Mr. 'Plasmo' nailed it again! I've watched this vid several times and learned some new skills and had an instant dejavu when I saw the striking red and yellow paint on certain areas.
    The Tuskegee Airmen is the popular name of the first all black airmen who fought in WWII as the 332nd Fighter Group of the US Army Aircorps, recognisable by their distinctive P-51' s red tails and yellow bands on their wings. They flew 15.500 sorties as bomber escorts and flew with distinction, for example destroying 112 enemy aircrafts in the air .
    In 2007, 350 Tuskegee Airmen and their widows received the congressional gold medal.

    For aerodynamic reasons the wings on these aircraft were covered in duraluminum paint before they left the plant. That being said, you do superb work in all genres of modeling. Thank you Dave!

    I'm currently building this kit. The aircraft was flown by 1st Lieutenant Spurgeon Neil Ellison, USAAF, 100th Fighter Squadron, 332nd Expeditionary Operations Group, who was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross in WW2, and his unit was awarded 3 Meritorious Unit Commendations. The red empennage was widely known. You nailed everything except the skin color of the pilot. The 332nd was an all-black squadron. Lt. Ellison was one of the first African American fighter pilots. The Redtails are LEGENDARY in American Military Aviation.

    Fantastic build, Martin. You make it look so easy!! Normally I wouldn't say anything, but due to your attention to detail, the P-51s through the D at least had a plywood cockpit floor! It should be visible through the open canopy.

  • @kyleSD70MAC
    @kyleSD70MAC 9 років тому

    How did you get the control stick and the aerial (antenna) off the sprues without breaking them? I recently got about 5 or so kits of this, and only managed to get one stick off intact, but it broke after it was glued in.

      David Damek to je taky dobře, na techniku se taky chystám ;-)
      Mám ještě dotaz k těm Citadel washum jestli by jsi mohl napsat: ředí se to a případně čím ? Jaký přesně používáš, zkoušel jsi i jiné ? Mě by se líbily a uvažuji o těhlech: Citadel Shade: Athonian Camoshade, Reikland Fleshshade, Agrax Earthshade, Nuln Oil. Díky za postřehy ;-)

    • @daviddamek3506
      @daviddamek3506 10 років тому

      Jsou to akryly, takže stačí obyčejná voda na ředění. Já používám černý Nuln oil a hnědý Agrax Earthshade. Na figurky se určité hodí i ty barevné, ale na stíny ti postačí jen ty dva. Koupil jsem ještě Vallejo wash, ale je více vodnatý a hnědý odstín je spíše do rezavá. Jediná nevýhoda těchto citadel washu je ta, že nejdou setřít jako olejové barvy a proto je důležité efekt nepřehnat a používat je jen na malé plochy.

  • @DanakarEndeel
    @DanakarEndeel Рік тому +1

    What do you guys think, should I get one of these particular P-51/F-51 kits from AirFix or go with another kit-manufacturer for a 1/72 scale Mustang?
    I want to recreate the end-scene in "Top Gun Maverick" where Maverick has created that civilian twin-seater version (with both a little Maverick and a custom Penny figure sitting inside while on a clear stand as if flying). I have already bought a custom decal sheet that's specifically designed for that version with all the right numbers and everything; so all I need to know now is which kit would be a good choice.
    However, whilst looking for model kits I got a little overwhelmed with the sheer number of manufacturers and all the Mustang kits they offered. So I have included a list of inexpensive models (I also saw a company called Arma Hobby who made kits in 2021 and 2022 but they cost like 2-3x as much as any of the ones listed below; so I'm just going to ignore those LOL.
    What do you guys think about the following kits/manufacturers (if you have any experience with them that is). These are the ones that are readily available to me in my area:
    AirFix - AX01004 or AF02047A
    Revell - REVE04148/REV64148 (same kit but 64148 simply comes with some paint+glue+brush)
    Italeri - ITA-086 or ITA1423 (I heard that Italeri rarely includes pilots/copilots on their sprues)
    Hobby Boss - HBS-802303480230 or Hobby BossHBS-802423480242 or Hobby BossHBS-802433480243
    Academy - ACA-12485
    Tamiya - 60749 or 60754
    Heller - HEL-802681580268
    Thanks!! 🙂
