  • The Messerschmitt bf110 was a twin-engine heavy fighter used by the German Luftwaffe during the second world war. Despite successes in the early stages of the conflict, its weaknesses would soon be exploited by more manoeuvrable adversaries, resulting in the Bf110 being moved to other duties such as ground attack and night fighter roles.
    Although successors would be developed to replace the bf110, this aircraft would see service in one form another until the end of the war.

    Hi Matt, great build, though I think I've spotted an error with the kit, thought that the rear seat was for the gunner, so should be the other way around and why did they have a control stick?

    • @ModelMinutes
      @ModelMinutes  Рік тому +1

      That is an interesting point. I feel though the seat could pivot to face rearward? But the second control column is more like a training plane…
      I’d have to do more research on this

    • @silver082
      @silver082 Рік тому

      There should be three seats: The pilot seat is correct, attached to the cockpit floor. Next the radio operator seat that looks like a pad, mounted on the wing spar I think, facing forwards and finally the rear gunner seat facing backwards, this one is incorrect in shape and should be mounted on a pedestal, not directly on the cockpit floor, behind the pilot station, the rest of the cockpit is at a lower level, the pedestal for the rear seat will compensate.

    • @ModelMinutes
      @ModelMinutes  Рік тому +2

      Not sure it is a turboprop… turboprops have a bit of a jet engine mixed in to the process to turn the propeller whereas this is pretty much just an internal combustion engine

  • @julianmhall

    Hi Matt.. nice to see another video from you :) Re mixing paints.. may I suggest using image editing software on your computer? Create a custom colour on that and when you're happy it looks right the hex value should give you the RGB proportions to give an idea of what colours to mix and how much of each :)

    • @Simon_Nonymous
      @Simon_Nonymous Рік тому +1

      I think the engines and spinners would be ok but you might have to overcome removing the bombracks; I think also that the square thing on the nose above the MGs is for the E version so would need removing.

    Hi matt,what's the best way of making clouds for an a
    1/72 aircraft flying just above them on a stand and the best way of making it as though the propeller is turning too.thanks andy

    • @ModelMinutes
      @ModelMinutes  Рік тому

      Hmm, clouds traditionally seem to be cotton wool, with highlights airbrushed on, but there could be other methods I’m not aware off.
      Spinning props can be done with motors, or a clear disc of plastic and the “spinning” prop painted on

    Hi Matt, great video, just a quick question, what kit have you built that have had the best decals and the worst decals? Thanks

    • @ModelMinutes
      @ModelMinutes  Рік тому +1

      Best decals are usually cartograph, so Airfix and Revell tend to have those - there are others but it’s not as consistent with their inclusion.
      Worst is generally Mistercraft kits (I’d throw in the older academy ones too, being thick and unwilling to stick to the model)

      @@randomnickify It's really ridiculous. This would be clearly harmless use of a symbol that was banned almost 80 years ago. Battlefield V's war story "The Last Tiger" comes to mind. A story of war full of killing, themes of brainwashing, animated images of hanged people but a cross? Nah, it would be soo inappropriate.
      Politically? Yes, such groups should be prevented from forming again, so definitely ban the symbol. But for media depicting history?
