  1. Didn't realize, this might be construed as advertising.
  2. Though my interest is primarily aircraft, I did have a Daimler Ferret for a while (sold it back as it was unusably unreliable) and did a model of it. Weathering armor is a lot of fun.
  3. Interesting subject, I suggested to Kotare that they do a version of the Mk.III Seafire. Interesting back story too. . Build Vlogs here:
  4. It was clear that Monogram had improved their kits 2 years after the Spitfire release in the early 1960’s. Still a fun model and good overall quality that made these so fun to build as a kid. I used the wing roundels but painted the rest of the markings. The retractable landing gear worked well too.

  5. I have a Kotare one waiting in the wings. Looking forward to that one,
  6. The decals disintegrated so I had to paint the markings. Not without its challenges but very nostalgic. This is still a decent model and the hobby wouldn’t be where it is today without them.
  7. Building a trio of these kits. What I found was interesting and nostalgic. The Monogram White-Box 1/48 Scale Models — Building the Spitfire (part 1 of 2 part build) https://youtu.be/SxyhKvPJL4c
  8. I did a Youtube series on this but it was a fun and nostalgic build and I had a lot of responses from people of similar age to whom these Revell 1/32 models meant so much.
  9. Managed to get the last video finished.
  10. Sincerely appreciate the offer but I had already ordered some. Video is late, I’m recovering from food poisoning
  11. Finished it today (finally). Should have the video out EOD Monday.
  12. Oh and someone referred me to this product. I’m going to try it with the trio of 1/48 Monogram white box kits I’m going to do next. https://www.microscale.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=MI-12&Category_Code=FINPROD&Product_Count=6
  13. I did put a gloss coat but only where I was going to put the decals. I’m not sure that sanding with 600 grit and finer wouldn’t have achieved the same thing, Still waiting on the replacement windshield but having fun with weathering for part 5. I’m using sandpaper more than anything else.
  14. When I tested the wheel hub ones, they were superb! Lulled me into a false sense of security. But I think the damage was done on these because the paper curled so much.
  15. Here's part 4. Spoiler: I didn't get it finished yet
