I will be posting a few more videos, as I complete my curent modelling projects.

But for the time being I need to concentrate on 'other events' that will demand my full attention and time.

I am not leaving YouTube.

Thank you for your understanding..

revell is notorious for the gaps in between parts, which is a shame since they have pretty nice rivet/panel line details imo. too bad they're raised, it's all lost when everything's sanded down with filler.

@jamiekenta Well, I think this is another old Monogram kit reboxed by Revell... Revell actually releases very few REVELL kits, they tend to rebox anything from Hasegawa to Italeri and even Heller and old Frog kits.. whatever they can get their hands on, I guess! The Revell original kits of the last few years have always held very higfh quality in toolings, accuracy and detail.. :)

@BasicModelling really? that's interesting. I'm working on a 1/48 dauntless by revell (re-release) and I love the rivet details and panel lines (if only they weren't raised!!) but the gaps are just horrendous lol. it has an incredible lack of cockpit detail, but it makes for a fun scratch build project. It is a very nice kit, don't get me wrong, it's a fun weekend build or challenging project, just wish the parts fit was better.

@jamiekenta Yes, the Dauntless is an old Monogram kit as well.. if you look at the undersurface of one of the stabilizers you're bound to find the letters MM and a year.. also maybe inside the fuselage or inside one of the wing parts, unless Revell has had them removed from the toolings.. Haven't seen the kit but I know the (bad) habits of Monogram.. :) Personally I like the old kits for the same reasons as you, they're a bit of a challenge but good fun overall.. :)

what skill level? 3?

[BasicModelling]

@DanTheCaptain I think it is a 3, but I haven't got the box anymore so can't say for sure.. :)
