0:00 To start, we look at the build ahead and plan the build. 1:34 So, we start building the engine and how we will paint it to speed up the build. 18:57 With the engine block painted satin black and the coolant tank with metals, we mask up and paint the rubber strapping and straps. 30:21 Next up, we use the One Man Army mask set for the engine makings.
0:00 To start, we add the ignition leads and the engine mounts. 11:23 Next, we put together the exhaust and paint with AK 484 Brunt Metal 18:22 Now we can add the pipework. Here we use pens for the rubber joins and clips. 23:04 Lastly, we can add the remaining parts to complete the engine.
0:00 To start off with the cockpit, we cut out and clean up all the parts and assemble the cockpit. 6:51Next, we paint with Tamiya XF-26 and a drop of white added. I did this as I didn't have any RLM-66. Then, we dry bry everywhere with light grey oils. Next, we use marker pens to add in all the details. 19:28 Now we can decal the instrument panel and again dry brush and use UV glue to make the glass dials. 29:33 Last up, it's time to install the cockpit and bring the fuselage halves together.
