FULL VIDEO BUILD TAMIYA SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE Mk.I

I may be young but i am very patient so everytime i build tamiya models i always have fun even tough its hard to build

Great job! Some modelers criticize Tamiya kits for being too simple to assemble. To them I say: There's more complex and expensive kits out there to challenge them, and bad kits that just frustrate. It's up to them: Be a model snob, or enjoy being frustrated by having to solve unnecessary problems... For myself, I'd rather the kit goes together properly, and spend my OCD time on painting and detailing 😏.

AK Camouflage putty well worth investing in, really simple and reusable. Model looks great

Great to watch your builds ,I'm retired now looking forward to getting back to modelling,I have got a few kits stashed ,I can build ok ,but always struggle with the painting and weathering ,

Completely shits over all of Airfix's spitfires

정말 아름답군요

Very nice!... we have a Spitfire warbird here in NZ.👍🇳🇿✈️

Awesome video, just about to start one. Just wondering why you didn't paint or part paint some of the smaller cockpit items that went in? Something you wouldn't advise?

Reginald Joseph Mitchell was born in Butt Lane (village) Talke, Staffordshire…in a terrace house right opposite my dentist’s front door …every time I exit from my dentist my eye is drawn to the blue commemoration plaque on the house wall as a constant reminder ( after being drilled) …things could have been far worse..RIP Reggie…

Why paint hidden parts?

G'day SMA, I reckon this kit by Tamiya is the best they've done in years. Its clever, innovative design features result in an outstanding fit and the level of minute detail gives even Eduard Profipaks a run for their money. I did one of these soon after they were released down here in Australia and I enjoyed the build so much I'm about to do another one, this time the version with the black and white under wings.
You did an excellent build and some logical weathering without going overboard as the trend is, sometimes, these days. One tiny point: I didn't see any weathering on the prop blades, although I just could have missed them in your camera shots.
Overall, this Tamiya kit has a higher level of detail and is a little bit more 'fiddly' than their standard kits; and that's a good thing. They should do more kits this way. I'm really pleased at how your build and paint job worked out, and I'm sure you are too.
Cheers, and all the best, Bill H.

Should Tamiya’s extra thin cement only be used and applied over joins when sanding and painting will be done? Would it be visible if it wasn’t painted over?

🦅💪

beautiful :')

Fantastic finish sir. With regard to the camouflage I recently came across the Air Ministry "manual" 1939-1945 marking out rules for colours for camo. etc together with the size of squadron markings. The ministry decreed that the camouflage colours should merge and not be defined by a sharp line. So you have it spot on sir. Great video.

Absolutely amazing! ! ! You are so masterful. Looks exactly like the real aircraft.

Amazing video. The finished model is spectacular! I love this airplane and you rendered it perfectly!

Excelente modelo é muita categoria bjs abraços muita saúde

tamiya is one of thr best

Amazing. perhaps the best kit of all time done a wonderful justice.

Браво Душане! Заиста перфектан рад!

Superb kit!

There’s nothing more boring than watching a geek build a model airplane. I know because my wife says this very same thing to me all the time.

Amazing work!
For the dark earth, do you recommend the Tamiya mix or the Alclad2 dark earth?
Thanks

Looked up this video because I’m helping out a library in making one but someone started it but just rushed it so I need the help on what he did

Wow! Very Cool Video !

Thumbs up ...fabulous work and attention to detail.

I’ve never seen so much Tamiya gear in the one video

Is this suitable for a beginner

Superb!

Lovely kit and a very nice build! However, at $200 AUD it's way beyond my budget.

hes the equivalent of a tamiya fanboy he doesn't any other companys product

Good done, but why you not using Tamya's accent panel?

Nice job. Thanks for the video. What glue did you use, or how did you attach the armored windscreen to the front canopy? I'm about to start this model and I'm feeling anxious about that part!

Tamiya + the Master!

I have the impression that the weathering on most models is largely overdone. What I see is chipping and erasure of the paint, oil, soot, ... What is the expert opinion ?

FANTASTIC !!!! !!!! !!!! BRAVO !!!! Greetings from Athens, Greece!!!

I am ALWAYS AMAZED at your work. Thanks for sharing!!

Very nice build, but why would you risk putting glue on the outside of the fuselage when you could have put it on the inside? I'm referring to the cockpit side panel insert.

hi im an aspiring 12 year old model builder and your videos really made me want to do it more often thanks!

I’m fairly new to model building.
How do you make the weather wash to highlight the interior details?
Thank you.

I think the panel lines are too pronounced. Not to scale. Just my thoughts.

Naah 😆😆😆

I think a lot of money i need for that paint
Sand paper
Etc

Excelente video desde chile abrazo a mi también me gusta los aviones y el aermodelisno gran trabajo 🤘🇨🇱

Show!!!!!

Fantastic work 👌 I wish I had the patience and skill to do this. I think I'd end up messing it up within 5 minutes.

Great build. I bought this kit today, I'm going to build a different option from yours- N3200 QV, as that's the aircraft I sat in last week!

Good job. Anyway, if it can help for a more faithful reproduction, while almost all kit companies suggest interior green for spitfire cockpit colour, on the web interesting sources may be fount attesting that first marks spitfires variants interiors were painted sky type: according to such references, RAF cockpit green was used from mk V variants onwards and later replaced by black (mk XIV) , while ultimate marks showed upper black and lower sky cockpits.
