Mr. Mahendra, this is the first video I have seen that only describes the problems with the kit. You must be a magician! It is a great idea to make such a video.
You did an outstanding work!! This Bear looks so amazing. With all the effort you put into this proyect, we can see that no matter the quality of the kit, experience and high modelling level can finish an impressive model. Greetings and congratulations!!!
Thank you, Ramon. It was hard work but it paid off well too. In case you are interested, here are high resolution images of the model flic.kr/s/aHBqjA9ncf
@@mdanumurthi I never built a vacuform kit before. Probably harder than the Trumpeter i bet. Does Trumpeter still produce the Bear? I think i would probably rather give that one a try. Yours turned out really nice. Thanks for the info.
Thanks! I think Trumpeter still makes them. Scalemates has a list of online stores that sell them. www.scalemates.com/kits/trumpeter-01601-tupolev-tu-95ms-bear-h--115168

Thanks! Glad you find this video useful, David. I know I was struggling badly. and I bet many others were (or still) in the same spot.
Whatever the kit, in the hands of the right person the result is still a masterpiece. Awesome built 👍👍👍
Thank you, mas Agung

Thanks for the tips. This very kit is sitting on my shelf.
Glad it was helpful! Awesome.. good to know you have one.
Leave it there….😂😂😂😂!
Really cool 👍
Thank you!
Is Trumpeter the only kit of the TU-95 available? I'd like to build an early version to display with my Monogram B-36.
I did a search on Scalemates.com and came up with two brands: Amodel and Contrail. all in 1/72 scale
here is the link to the Amodel kit www.scalemates.com/kits/amodel-72002-tu-95ms-bear--181224
And here is the link the Contrail 1/72 kit www.scalemates.com/kits/contrail-tupolev-tu20-bear--191001

For metallic paint work I use testors metalizer sealer which I bought 40 bottles of before it became unavailable, anyway it doesn't dull finish!😜

Wow. I had my share of Testor metalizers. Those were the days. Did the right thing stocking on them bf they dissappeared!

素晴らしいです。ブラックジャックやバックファイヤーも出れば良いですね。
Thank you! Yes, totally agree with TU-22 Backfire and TU-160 Blackjack. I hope one day i can built them.
My tip...If you plan to build this kit...DON'T!
LOL hahah
на каждом борту написано название города!)
I wish the decals have the names
Good thing it’s not a Tamiya kit. Their large kits are a detail free junk
LOL. So true. I did their 1/32 MIG-17 kit and it was void of any detail.
One tip for a better video… skip the ‘back-ground music’.
Thank you for the input. I' make changes to my next video
Wow! What a painful kit.
Haahaa. Yes indeed!
