That is awesome!
JD's brain is going to explode after watching that.
pretty standard model building is ya ask me.
So the YT of your Butcher Bird master build will be up when? I'm a little foggy on the details...

It's true. I am not the goat artisan that you are.
Actually - lots of that is regarded as "standard" for a lot of modellers. The weathering, the rescribing, the additional cockpit and fuselage detail.
Not taking away from it - it does look great and the engine especially looks fantastic.
I wouldn't have the patience for that amount of detail.
available time is a great divide within the model building world.
in all fairness that would be an awesome build 20+ years ago when photo-etch, resin parts and washes were in their infancy and pretty damn pricey.
rivets with a pouncing wheel and tape.... ok. I'm more surprised an Eduard kit didn't have those to begin with. and fwiw, those Eduard kits come with all of the aftermarket parts included so you don't even have to source the odds and ends to get it done.
I've never had an Eduard kit

You know that's right..... I have the same issue with gaming.

Amazing stuff - I just didn't realise modelling got this hard core - their attention to detail is incredible. Love the pic of the aircraft on the truck.
