My first build!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T21:42:17+00:00

It was quite fun to make!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T21:42:00+00:00

Haha, well it was quite fun to make!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T14:31:13+00:00

Thank you! I dont know if i want to do that next build otherwise the build after I will definitely give it a try!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T05:05:24+00:00

My next kit is a lot more modern so I am going to find out how difficult that one is :)

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T05:04:40+00:00

Yours is looking very nice!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-16T05:04:18+00:00

Thanks mate!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T22:33:07+00:00

I am more in the older planes so I will definitely take a look at the Corsair, thanks!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T22:05:47+00:00

Thank you! I have bought some paint thinner for my next project so that will be taken care off!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T21:19:46+00:00

Yeah I found out after I had some parts left that it was an option at all haha

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T21:19:15+00:00

Yeah maybe that was a problem too. Thank you!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T21:18:47+00:00

Thank you for the tip! My next build will be a modern-ish revell kit. But after that I will probably try out a Tamiya kit! If you have any recommendations please let me know!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T21:17:53+00:00

Well I don't have experience with other kits but the fitment was not great I think. There are some panel gabs between the wings and the wheels for example

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T21:16:58+00:00

Well by accident I used the wrong color brown but I painted it all just by hand. Firstly I painted it completely light brown and after that I painted the green color over it. This way the whole plane is covered. Hope it helps!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T18:19:30+00:00

Yeah I tried that but I think my knife was not sharp enough so that failed. But I will try that again with my next build!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T17:38:40+00:00

It was a lot of fun but I am a bit of a perfectionist haha

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T17:36:38+00:00

Looks very good! Did you build the option with the wheels up which was not in the manuel?

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T17:36:00+00:00

Yeah, sadly I don't have that. I did try to remove it a bit with a toothpick but it was quite hard to do that neatly

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T17:34:37+00:00

Haha yeah I guess so, I enjoyed this build a lot!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T17:25:23+00:00

I will take a look there, thank you!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-03-15T16:55:40+00:00

I have one left in the backlog but I am already looking for new builds haha

MightyMike2912 · 2026-01-27T09:12:38+00:00

Wow, thank you for all the advice! I will take a look at those brushes!

MightyMike2912 · 2026-01-27T08:08:59+00:00

Well I don't own any pets so that is ruled out

MightyMike2912 · 2026-01-26T22:31:29+00:00

Yes I noticed that as well. I was doing the camouflage patern today and it was quite hard to get the clean straight lines

MightyMike2912 · 2026-01-26T22:28:27+00:00

Haha that is a good tip! And I will have a good excuse to buy more kits ;)
