My dad worked on these in Vietnam. I have many of his photos from his base a Tuy Hua. Well done sir! You have captured it.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing that!
Very nice 105. Great diorama! Many don't realize how big the "Thud" was, or the very dangerous missions they had to fly for the lack of anything better. Lugging tons of iron bombs was SO NOT what it was designed for. Flying 100 ft above the deck at a susrained mach 1.2 w/the internal nuke was it's designed job.... A big bruiser of an aircraft that to this day remains one of the fastest low level jets ever. Again, nice job, and nice video!
I remember seeing one for the first time at a museum and I was struck by just how tall it is! Thanks for watching!
I got to listen to Bud Anderson tell his story at the Warhawk museum in Idaho it was a really cool experience, love the build!
What a neat experience, thanks for sharing!
Stunning... so much skill and artistry.
Much appreciated!
I’m calling this the perfect diorama!
SO GOOD!
Thats very kind of you, thank you!
Making full combat loadout models with battle color is great.
Thanks!
I love your work and have been binge watching your videos!
Awesome! Thank you! That helps me out a lot!
I like this jet F-105 Thunderchief nice work on kit model on this military aircraft. ❤😊👍😍🤩🤗
Thanks, thanks for watching!
A freaking masterpiece!
Much appreciated!
Great video, tutorials, and techniques. Enjoyed watching it, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just found your channel. Gotta say finally someone who doesn't trip over their words, speaks good English and doesn't go overboard on details that are not visible in scale. Thanks so much :D
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Amazing job on the build and description. One of my favorite aircraft of all-time. As a former USAF Crew Chief (early 90's) it's always great to see maintenance troops included in a diorama. :)
"College education to break it, high school education to fix it!"
One quick comment on the gravel fill for the revetment wall... Because I'm a model railroader and have a lot of experience with this. Doing a layer of glue first works fine. Diluting white glue with water 60/40 or even some rubbing alcohol is good (it evaporates quicker than the water). When you put the thicker ballast down, spray it with "wet water" (water with a drop of dish detergent in it, or even a little alcohol to break the surface tension) and that will soak into the gravel. Then use a dropper to add on 60/40 glue/water and it will soak in then harden as the water evaporates. :)
I would point out that in reading both of General Yeager's books and Bud Anderson's book that Bud wasn't Yeager's "wingman", but they were both flight leads in the same squadron in WWII. Minor detail but a common misconception. Great work! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, and I'm happy to represent the ground crews, I only wish there were more figures out there for them. I have a nephew who is a mechanic in the Navy and my brother was an ordinance specialist in the Air Force, so I want to try and represent that aspect more often.
I like that quote, I hadn't heard that before!
You are correct about Bud and Chuck not being actual wingmen, just trying to convey that they sometimes flew together. Thanks for keeping me honest!
Brett
So Yeager and Anderson were in the same squadron. I guess people got the misconception seeing Glamorous Glennis and Old Crow flying together and watching each other's backs. LOL
Sexy. 105 is one of my favorite planes
It really is a fantastic looking Jet, looks fast when its standing still.
Awesome build great details and very real look I'm an ex air force crew chief 2 minor comments the maintenance stand you built are B-4 stands one end was open at the narrow end with 3 steps and hand rails and had wheels at all 4 corners. and I think your -60 power unit from the ground kit was great but also the air force had at that time and even into the late 1970s MD-3 power units, but again awesome work on the whole Thud work up.
Awesome, thank you for sharing that information. It doesn't surprise that these aren't totally correct for the era, unfortunately they are really the only thing available. Thanks for watching!
Yup, ex-Phantom phixer here so I had to train on both power units and an accurate B-4 would be welcome in both 1/48 and 1/32.
Great build and i totaly love the informative video. Top notch. Greetings from Sweden.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching!
Lovely work all round. Well done. Love the 3D printed parts.
Little tip you might find useful for when you are doing groundwork/ballast/scenics- once you have applied your initial layer, to lock it in place spray with straight alcohol (any % strength but use undiluted) before trying to apply more PVA. The alcohol acts as a flow agent and will stop the glue from pooling on the surface. It allows the glue to penetrate and cover all of the scenic material. Don't add the alcohol to the glue, just lightly spray it over your scenic work and then apply the glue.
Love your work though, just some damn good modelling!
Thank you so much for the tip on using alcohol, I'll have to try that next time! Thanks for watching!
I've had this kit in my stash for a while now. Thanks for the excellent video.
Glad you enjoyed it
I love the details, your way of explaining the process, creative ideas and everything dude. You have a new subscriber. Keep up the good work
Thanks for the sub! And thanks for watching!
Great job on a poorly tooled kit. F-, 105 is one of my favorites but I have always avoided the Hobby Boss kit, but I love what you did with it. Thanks.
Thanks, I've built a few of their 72nd scale kits without issue, but I'm glad I got through it, the F-105 is a fantastic aircraft, looks fast standing still.
Are you not a modeler? Make it work
That's a trophy !!!!!
Thanks, cheers!
Outfreaking fantastic ! Thank You for sharing . Hope you and your loved ones have a great weekend.
Thank you! Looking forward to a nice weekend.
That's an awesome build. Looks great.
Thanks!
You can dilute the glue with isopropyl alcohol and the surface tension will go away. Its super easy to fix al the gravel like that. Model train builders use that technique instead of water. Lovely diorama my friend. New sub.
Thank you so much for the tip about the ISP, I will for sure remember that for next time, thank you for watching and thank you for the sub!
Really nice diorama. Have always liked the F-105 as it looks mean and purposeful.
Thanks, I agree, its a great looking Jet!
Looks like a real jet to me. 😊
Cheers mate!
Fantastic. You should be proud.
Thank you kindly!
Perfect build 👍👍👍
Glad you like it!
Absolutely brilliant!
Thank you!
I grew up with the F-105. My dad was an engineer on the F-105 program at Republic in the 50's at the Farmingdale Plant. Great build video. Awesome work. Not originally designed as a fighter-attack aircraft but as a low altitude nuclear bomber. Of the 833 built, 600+ were lost in combat and accident and mechanical failure in Vietnam. The only aircraft in the U.S. arsenal that was removed from service due to the high losses.
Thats great, thank you for sharing your personal connection!
@@HammerheadModelMaking I got to see F-105's up close and personal. There were three hangars on Conklin Street in Farmingdale off of Route 110 that kept the hangar doors open 24/7 in 68' and you could see them working on the planes that were being repaired and upgraded for Wild Weasels. After I posted my reply I thought you probably knew that already from your research.
My Dad probably knew your Dad. He was a Fabricator for the 105 in the 50's and 60's. Remember him showing me the one that crashed in Farmingdale near the runway in the 60's.
Simply superb!
Thank you!
Awesome Built & Paint job!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful work Brett. A long video but worth it for all the info. Agreed about the sparse cockpits in most aircraft.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That is extraordinary! Superb, amazing, brilliant...one of the best I've ever seen.
Wow, thank you!
Wonderful F-105 diorama.
Thank you!
Love that base 😮 ps actually the whole build 👌😎☕️
Thank you!
Great video. I really think you did an awesome job with this model.
Glad you liked it!
Amazing job thank you and glad it was a long video with lots of info
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Very nice! One thing, I noticed you have the tow bar on the ground on the external power unit. That bar is spring loaded to the up position. As a matter of fact you can't even push it with the bar up as it locks the brakes. You have to push down on the bar as you push it. It was a major pain. lol. Anyway, I love your work. Beautiful job.
Yeah, its the little things one wouldn't think about if they weren't around this equipment. Thanks for the info, it will certainly come in handy the next time! Thanks for watching and the kind words!
a wonderful build. i love the make of your Video 👍👍
Thank you very much!
My dad served in Vietnam. I remember him talking about these. I believed they served from 1958 to 1984 or 85. Quiet a machine. I think there was a 2 seater called the "Wild Weasel." Nice job hammer I'm impressed. I like how you work with potoetch, another one of my Achilles heals.
Yes, the Wild Weasel is definitely on my list to do! I used to be really intimidated by photo etch, but I found after working with a few small PE sets, that once you get the hang of it, it because rather straight forward. I find the Eduard Profi-Packs, are a good place to start. They will usually have some photoetch, but none of it is required and its usually pretty simple. Good way to practice in my opinion!
Wonderful work!
Many thanks!
Amazing work 🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful job. Looks great!
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely amazing build!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
WOW im so very impressed with your painting ,weathering skills excellent job Sir
Thank you so much 😀
Excellent work! Looks fantastic
Thank you so much 😀
For a really dark green, old RAF WW2 green usually does it. Great job, greetings from the Island of Republic.
Thanks, good tip!
Fantastic build!
Thank you! Cheers!
Now that’s what I call art …. 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent diorama, looks absolutely stunning!
Many thanks!
Wonderful detail!
Glad you like it!
Great job
Thank you!
Looks amazing
Thank you!
Excellent 👏👏👏🤩
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely amazing job!!! Im definitely a new subscriber Sir. Love the camo on the jet alot. You explain everything perfectly. The diorama turned out jaw dropping. I have an F-14 Tom Cat ive been staring out for months now. I need an airbbrush first. But i can only dream it turns out as nice as yours. Im 62 ,retired & got stage 4 cancer. But i will build this jet soon 🙏 thanks for sharing your skills. 🇺🇸
Thanks for the sub! The Tomcat is certainly a fun one to build, and with so many cool colorful options for markings, you can't really go wrong. Sorry about your cancer, but good thing you have a good hobby to keep you busy!
Good job, really liked the format - a lot of commentary, and sharing why's, a bit of history etc. Thanks a lot for work You put to create it. :)
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it, its good to hear feedback on the production side of the videos.
Looking good, very cool plane, great build, excellent weathering!
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome build so much talent and detail! Thanks for sharing ✌Canada✌
Thanks for watching my Canadian friend!
Beautiful, Excellent, well done sir !!
Thank you kindly!
awesome build.
I'm glad you like it!
Awesome job man
Thank you! Cheers!
A labor of love... well done
Thank you!
Really great work!! I enjoyed watching this and gave me some tips for future builds. Currently working on tamiya’s F-4B and it fits like a charm but it’s a lot of tiny pieces to paint!
Awesome, I hear its a great kit!
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job.. It looks pretty good.
Thank you! Cheers!
Very nice job! You’re a true artist!
Thank you so much 😀
Amazing work. Just can’t see how it would get any better . I love the hour long format . Perfect length to watch something relaxing and wind down
Thank you so much!! Thanks for watching!
Your passion and long tiring efforts show so well in this build Brett! Beautiful man.
Thank you! This was an enjoyable build.
asombroso, gran trabajo BRAVOOO!!!!!
Thank you!
Wow. Very Nice.
Thank you! Cheers!
What a great wonderful work.😊
Thank you Lord Vader.
Incredible ... enjoy your build ..:)
Thank you, thanks for watching!
Very nice build 👌
Thanks! 👍
Great work on this diorama. I have a long term goal to do a similar scene with an F-100 and I appreciate being able to see how some of that might be accomplished. I especially appreciate very much your coverage of the oil weathering as this is timely for a different build I am working on and preparing for that exact step. Thanks for a very cool and useful video. And thanks for sharing your talent, skills, and techniques. That's what makes this new age of modeling so wonderful.
Thank you and I hope that the video is helpful for your builds! I have an F-100 on my wishlist as well!
Great stuff Brett. Love the Thunderchief. SEAC is probably one of my favourite aircraft schemes.
Thanks man! I have a few more projects planned out with the SEA scheme, love it that much!
Stunning build my friend... cheers from Argentina!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very well done 105👍 great video to, i like your way of commenting through the whole process.
Glad you liked it!
really amasing work👍
Much appreciated!
Very good job that man !
Thank you!
Really great job 👍👌 and the video too Was very fun to watch
Awesome, thank you!
Very very nice
Thanks a lot!
Steve this looks magnificent, your patience and skills are something to behold, and the best part is I'm not really into ship models. 👍👍👍
I assume maybe this comment was meant for another video, I am not Steve and this isn't a ship model. But I can guess that Steve's ship is impressive.
@@HammerheadModelMaking Awww Gawd trust me! If it's any consolation and with all sincerity what you're doing looks really impressive and you have gained another subscriber. 😂
@@Marie579 No worries my friend? 😄 I appreciate the sub!
very cool dude!
Thank you! Cheers!
First reaction after seeing the whole build: djeezz what a nice one!
Fantastic to see how you weather and build up the layers, also for the tarmac! 🤩
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Great build. I built the entire century series 3 decades ago. Makes me want to go back and rebuild them with modern detail kits. Well done Sir.
I’ve taken a greater interest in the century series after building the Thud, Would be great to have all of them.
Stellar job! Especially using one of Hobby Boss's less than great efforts.
FYI, Old Crow is bourbon whiskey, not gin.
Thank you! And thanks for the correction, can you tell I'm not much of a drinker?
Like all great movies this video has a great story with good visual qualities. Your modeling and weathering techniques are superb and hats off for having the knowledge of the pilot and planes history. Two thumbs, way up!
Thank you very much! I appreciate the kind words!
I enjoyed this video. Your description of the process was very clear and concise. I am going to sub. Im not really an aircraft modeller as i mostly do cars and scifi but a lot of what you show can be used on many different genres.
Awesome, thank you! Yeah, I quite frequently use these same techniques across many different genres, including Sci-fi.
thank you for you looking at my comment I have in my stash a 1/48 F-104G the old monogram kit and a F-104F and F-104G both 1/72nd both old monogram kits none started going to do them. I really
like the 1/48th Hobby Boss you built and I'm looking into getting one along with any add ons like you did and bring it up to show quality. thank you.
Awesome, good luck with your builds!
Excellent... whoow
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent work. Nice mentioning the Old Crow. I did not know the same pilot flew an F105 version of his fighter. The narrative history and stories behind your builds are awesome. Great channel!
Yeah, we was the commander of the wing, and ironically commanded his son... I got to interview him as a part of a self directed college project.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, truth be told, the whole project evolved around building the Old Crow II as soon as I saw the decals and realized it was the same pilot who flew in WW2.
Thats really neat!
@@erikjackson84 Another old WWII name on a F-105D ThunderChief is the Memphis Belle II. I don't really know the story behind how the Memphis Belle II got it's name but she is actually sitting in the USAF museum in Dayton Ohio with her namesake the Memphis Belle.
There were a few that carried forward names from WW2, 'Arkansas Traveller' was another one, originally carried on a P-38 I believe, then in Vietnam on an F-4E.
A few still carried on the tradition in the Gulf War too, I remember an F-15E named 'Shangri-La' and carried the red and white scroll of the original P-51.
Love that hat tip to the warriors of the past. @@michaelbenjmitchell1
I'm building the Revell F105 T-Stick II right now and have the Hobby Boss F105 up next. I'm glad I stumbled upon your video here.
I also have the aftermarket decals for the Old Crow II that I planned on using for mine. I have many models of Bud Anderson's planes in my collection.
Nice man! Thanks for watching!
Excellent, I need to add his mustangs to my collection.
Very nice i love good job👍
Thank you! 😊
Gives me more confidence to try my painting techniques watching videos like this. I have the revell kit and was interested in the hobby boss kit. I’ll build the revell first. Get a sense of direction before venturing to a higher skill level. Thank you
Good plan! If the Revell kit is based off the old Monogram kit, then it should actually be a decent kit, old, but fairly accurate in shape and outline.
I was googling the hobby boss F-105 as I want to build one too and found your channel. You did a very good job with all that aftermarket stuff (my list of extra parts is really long for that kit) and I really like the diorama with some scratch build pieces. The F-105 is a huge aircraft, I know because i was standing next to one few years ago.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting, I enjoy your content and subscribe to you! You are right, the F-105 is huge! Cheers and I can’t wait to see what you can do with the kit.
Very nice Thud, like how you used the bottom of the box in your diorama as the base.👍I threw my box out.☹️
Thanks for watching, I assume you're referring to the squares I laid down on the base, those are actually sheet plastic, but thinking about it, one could probably use the box card board for the same purpose!
@@HammerheadModelMaking My Revell Monogram Thud model box had the same airfield pattern on the underside of the box to be used as a display base. Unfortunately I threw the box out already or I would have tried making something similar.🙂
Great build. Would love to see u build the 1/24th airfix spitfire in a diorama
That would be quite a project! I would love to start modeling in the larger scales (32nd and 24th) but I would just have no room to display them!
Magnificent! Another solution for the cockpit is the Quinta Set. The 3D decals fill the gap you mentioned, one only need to scratch build some supports. Provides some modest seat details too.
I hadn't considered that, not a bad idea!
Awesome tutorial!, Thanks for showing, My nex F-105 will be from that brand, great job, ....ando i gonna buy the aftermarket kit too,
Glad I could help!
Love it!
Thanks!!
