Hi, folks... this is my first video of 2024, and it's a little bit of a departure for me as I decided to use some of the footage from a few of my model builds to try and bring you some tips and techniques that I use when working on a WW1 model aircraft kit. In addition to my handiwork, I've appended three links below to whet you appetite, should you choose to take time to look in. I'm sure they will bring you even more information to this fascinating modelmaking subject and the aircraft of the Great War era.
For a magical insight into really pushing your skills, you can visit / @idaemonplasmo; and for just about every method of working your way through WW1 aircraft modelling, and getting many great tips, you might like to try looking in here: https://www.ww1aircraftmodels.com/ind.... And despite the demise of the Wingnut Wings company, their website is still accessible here: http://www.wingnutwings.com/ww/, where you can select 'model kitsets' from the menu, and choose any of the aircraft types you'd like to find out about, along with seeing the instructions sheets, camouflage options and an image archive of very interesting photos of each type.
These are just some of the resources available to you online at time of writing and I'd encourage you to take a little time to browse through them.
