a model Scout UK make something awesome
[Music]
hi everyone welcome welcome this is part
10 of the trumpeter you or built this
huge submarine the 1/48 scale yu55 2
from trumpeter and it's built by Ted
Teddy models models co uk yeah it's
quite an exciting part of this because I
have a feeling this could be this could
be the penultimate episode after this
it's a matter of putting everything
together doing a bit of painting and a
bit of weathering and then it's finished
after so long
yeah it's finished um what I've been
doing since the last time well I've got
all the crew you could probably see them
in there I've got a little crew painted
and assigned them to the posts
throughout the ball I've got the whole
together and all the parts I've actually
reached the final assembly part at the
page in the instructions so all the
parts are now finished they're all
applied and yeah it's just a matter of
putting it all together now all the
subassemblies are done so I'll show you
the hole later because I haven't got
enough room here on the bench now so
we'll have to go over there to the
dining table I'll reconfigure everything
and work out a way of showing you where
all on the dining table what we're going
to do in this part though is look at
some lighting again I know where they
were touched on it in the past last I
remember how we did the control room
light it let's see if it work
where's the switch
right there we up we've got the lighting
done in here last time and this is a
section where we've got red lighting and
white lighting the next sections we're
just going to put some white lighting in
I'm feed them all one of the things that
have done is that we tried all the
compartments in the hall and I found
that's the best way to do the wiring
we'll look at that is to feed everything
back to the control room feed it all
down behind the control room now you see
here there's a great void behind there
and there's bags a room for doing any
connections connect everything up and
then all you need to do after that is
run two wires maybe a switch in this
case two way is through the hole to your
battery pack and then you'll be all set
and you can maybe hide this away
somewhere I'm actually thinking if it's
big enough it's right it yep no it's not
big enough but I'll actually find a way
of Heidi in the stand or something like
that this one he's a big enough so I'll
either have to find a smaller switch
battery pack or do subdue something with
this anyway
good sir once it's out and you come we
could work on that later right how we're
doing the lighting support as I say well
just recap and touch on this ice we've
done before I'll just fetch another
piece in here yeah this is the crew
quarters and the kitchen the galley see
the chief the chef chief the chef just
in the background you count them really
see him because he's dead
now what should I have done I think as
we said before I think that this ball is
set up for lighting that is not calm
maybe trumpeter haven't produced it yet
but not to fear Jennifer Jas models how
I've been in touch with has actually
created a sec I've given some
information and she's created set of
lighting to go throughout the whole you
bought so if if anyone wants to look up
Jas lighting on Google you'll find the
link and it'll be the the details will
be in there how you can attend a
lighting kit you'll see in here this
hopefully you'll see where the lights go
those little dimples that's the position
of lights now in this one there isn't a
light in the galley and I think it'd be
a shame to leave the little guy left in
the dark so what I'll do I'll spread
these out instead of that one there I'm
moving over here to him there and all we
do with them I need to get the lights
now back in a second
here we up got them right they've come
they're a little down or chip LEDs a
little SM T's if you want to call it
there we have very tiny odd yeah that's
one that's one their tiny early so all
you need is a small mini drill just
drill in these what I'm going to try and
do is what you want to do with these is
actually get them between the frames if
you do move away the the holes here the
the dimples will represent the exact
location where they need to go what
we're moving this one along over here so
we'll put one two three in there so what
will they do is just move that there
just drill away
just take your time until faucet just
let the drill do the work
just a little fan out
they're through it's not a bit difficult
to see because everything's in shadow or
whether it goes in the submarine which
is a really dark and dismal and these
submarines now the the light itself
don't just put it through like a figure
in the hall just if you leave it flush
with the top of trying to get something
light in there if you leave it flush
with the top of the frame where it'll do
it will just create a shadow and light
the frame up so just drop it just a
little bit now these are really tiny so
you won't notice them up there and now a
drop of superglue
just hold it in place try not to stick
your finger to it
now then so we don't get any light
leakage what I've done with this is just
use a piece of filler or Mille put
something like that
so I've already get stopped so so you're
not light leaking into the hole
especially if you've drilled out the
freeing parts like we've seen that I've
done is just put a piece over there we
can pin that all depend up black literal
that's one thing I have done as well
with drilling out the frame pots in the
hole I'll show you as I say I'll show
you that soon I thought that what may
happen is if we put the compartments in
the ball you may see the grave pin
through the freeing ports which will
detract from the visual appearance of it
so I paint everything black on the on
the outside of the compartments so
there's that one time so it really is
that simple now if you find the battery
pack let me just try it
sources say what we're doing then is
just making sure we've got enough length
if you need to extend you cables so that
they'll reach the area of the control
room it's just just there where it's as
simple and as easy that's that so that's
that one
what see the one they're out when
they're on yep
looks a little bit over there so there
be another one here that'd be another
one over the galley seems strange that
they haven't poured in the galley but
that might sort out we'll do that we'll
do that I'll go do that and then we'll
come back and show you what's all like
all right see the moment there we are
this doesn't take long to do at all I
thought I'd leave the last one out just
to show you the one over the the galley
for the chef I thought I'd show you what
I mean by if you put these if you don't
put these down far enough he'll get
masked amongst the frames in the in the
submarine if I'm fine
through a hole I get this thing in yeah
you'll see there these lights are also a
little bit directional so if you pull it
up it will hide it will highlight most
of the framework in that say are these
on the right hand side er sort of
highlighting the frames if you push too
far down it becomes a bit overpowering
and also as you see they are directional
as well so if you turn them around a
little bit and just bounce them bounce
the light off the white pin it gives it
that much better
affect almost like the real thing sort
of a together bright but there are a
reflected light master time so yeah it's
not all doom and gloom on submarines I
can assure you of that
but obviously the power and the
submarine ISM more it is today with for
the rest of the light so everything else
so they're way up
there's the galley the chef all lit up
which is finish this one off which is
with a spot of filler just in in there
to hold it and that's another section
all tool I've lit yeah what I really
think this submarine does need lighting
if you've got the kit and you don't you
about lighting it I'd say do it for a
few extra quid it's well worth waiting
because once you get the clear parts on
the clear haul side it becomes a little
bit reflective and it's difficult to see
through the plastic to the inside so
yeah I do think the the color of the
lights make a difference and these
speaking of color of lights these are
the warm white they're not white lights
they're a warm white light which keeps
up much more authentic glow alright I've
gone through the rest of them and then
we'll look at pour them into the hole as
I say I'll have to read jig everything
here at the bench take you over to the
dinner table we'll have a look over
there and we'll see you in at all when
it's all set up well up till this and
it's also helped or done see them all
[Music]
right in this section or afraid there's
no sound so it seems like we'll have to
do a voiceover when we look at doing all
this where we have put all these
compartments into the hall itself as for
the hall it's been primed in black all
the outer fittings have been politics
apart from the obvious of the conning
tower and we'll leave that to later on
[Music]
one thing you need to do first before we
put everything in the hall
is to check it all over have a have a
look make sure that all the pants is
right there all the lights work any
parts that are missing they're already
put on then it's a matter of just simply
fit them in the hall they are going to
be a tight fit if you remember or if you
use trumpetear before you'll know that
the tolerance is on the parts of
talkative are really going to be quite
tight really with this voiceover I could
just make up anything I want us to go up
it's really hard to try and remember
what you have said when you've been
recording now what I found is with the
compartments is that there's obviously
if they that's what we keep mentioning
troupe but it seems to have a bit
provision for lighting with the the
cable roots in the back on the end of
each compartment is a knotch
to run the cables through
all the cables were one from the forward
and aft and the room towards the middle
section of the submarine where they're
all connected as we said behind the
control room then the the clear part
does look like it has a section cut out
of it where their switches or cables
could be fit for the live feed for the
the but that the lighting that obviously
buzzer says would be something in the
future that troubles will bring out
now if you look on each compartment and
in the hall itself you'll see some
locating pegs on the ends of the
compartments on the bulkheads these are
all in different positions for each
compartment so there's no chance of
getting them wrong so that one isn't
slightly forward if another one the
locating the pegs themselves would going
to locating slots within the hall well
you gotta remember is that when we fit
the first compartment which will be the
front torpedo room we need to fit it
perfectly you'll need to find the
correct slot for it to sit into because
I should always wear keep saying with
chopper 2 the tolerances are such that
if you were at looks 2 millimeters out
in this section it will sort of have a
domino effect as you go further on back
and by the time you fit six compartments
2 millimeters each that's 12 millimeters
at the end so we're gonna be out quite a
ways so you really have to make sure
that these are seated correctly or you
and you will also have trouble fitting
the glass fitting the see-through
section to the hole so as we can see
here here's the first section going in
just for a test fit for now
you feel it click in your felix slot in
and it will only fit in the correct
correct locating slots then after you've
spent all your precious time building
these you couldn't be really careful
that you don't push everything off or
knock anything or anything falls off
[Music]
say here I'm just taking the time to
make sure it's all fit nice and smooth
[Music]
sometimes if you find it won't fit it
could be the Campbells themselves if you
put the lady cables in if it could be
them holding the the compartment outlet
from the back because there's quite a
line looks like there's lots of room
there's not somewhat room at the back to
walk between the hall and the
compartment
[Music]
that's the first one in right here I'm
going to have a go fitting the second
compartment obviously the cables run
through these slots
[Music]
that's not one in now the next section
will be the control room we're gonna
leave that out for now it sits in there
like that we'll leave it out I will go
and fit the after compilers with the
compartments that fit after these
[Music]
it's also quite difficult doing these
voiceovers try remember what I did
there's the real living quarters so
check that one out we can fit these in
what I'm doing here I'm actually putting
it the wrong way around because the one
after this the diesel Road should go in
first
well one seeing here is that because the
after section the rear section the aft
torpedo room doesn't go on to lust we're
going to need to make provision to
provide the lighting in that compartment
with supply so the best thing to do is
take an extra length of supply cable and
feed that through and just leave it
loose out out of the rear for the wall
or become clear in a moment
also the another provision we've got a
bit for is the control tower the conning
tower that's got lighting in it well
what I plan to do is pin everything
first because the conning tower is
already painted I'm going to leave that
off so once again like the after
compartment I'm going to need to leave
provision to supply the lighting that's
in the conning tower or the bridge pin
or the sail it depends where you're from
oh well there's the engine room going in
now we lay the cable in for the aft
section the after torpedo room they'll
fit in nice and easily
and the feed cables will be nice and
neat
fitting in the cableway slots
so all that's left to do now really is
to connect everything up secure where
all these compartments in glue them in
let them set and then finally we can
connect the control room up and fit that
one in as well
no it's going to be tight you want to
make sure that the ends of each
compartment are nice and smooth and
clean free a pen I will look at fitting
up towards the end of the next section
so all we've got there in this cable in
this area now is the feed cables for the
lighting compartment for the Lighting's
in it for the lighting in each
compartment
we'll use some connector box like that
to connect them all up that's where
we'll click the the feed cable to to
being freed from your transformer or
your battery pack
anyway we'll go on and I'll fit all
these now I'll get everything glued in
so we'll come back and see you at the
morning right we're done that's all the
compartments glued in position for the
final time ollie your feed cables are
fed through to the middle section behind
the control room and connected into this
connector block here that I'm showing
you
ital dated in so it's not going to come
loose anywhere I'd also connected to
that is the feed from the battery pack
or transformer whatever you're going to
use you could perhaps even use a USB
connection if you clever enough to stop
the pulling on the cable itself I've
tied a knot and drilled through a little
section that I think he's going to be
maybe a cable clamp it's just to stop
the pulling on that because the
connections into the connector block
will be quite fragile and we don't want
them pulled out because you're not gonna
get back into this you're not going to
be able to to get back in and repair it
should the cables pull out so there
we've tagged one final test of the
lighting and I think what I'll do know
I'll pull back a little bit and we can
have a look and see everything all the
lights for the first time really
let's turn some of the studio lights out
there's two to your lights why not
we'll have a look round there's the
forward torpedo room the forward living
quarters the sort our room and
everything all very atmospheric with the
lighting
now if you are thinking of getting the
lights for this kit I've been in touch
to Jennifer and she tells me that she's
had an unprecedented demand for these
lights she is working through the orders
so my suggestion would be to if you are
planning lights for this kit is order
them from Jennifer when you buy the kit
and that that way by the time that
you're ready to fit the lights she'll
have been able to wear sort of complete
your order and then to ship them out to
you she doesn't take any payment in
advance of them solely so you don't have
to pay upfront you just pay for when
they're ready to to be shipped now then
here we go we need to slide this
compartment in to its final resting
place and it's got to be tight
one of the things I did find that would
help would be to check pass out the part
that goes across the top showed you know
that's this bit if you have included in
you might be looking and it might come
out if you spring it out it just helps
to put the cop puppet in and then see
behind so you can make sure that you
getting all the cables in and you're not
dropping anything and then it will just
quite easily slip back in and be it
glued in later anyway
oh that's about all for getting all
these sections in so we'll see if then X
bit
welcome back I hope the last section
didn't spoil you enjoyment too much due
to the voiceover it was only when I got
to this stage it was about to blow
everything up I just checked everything
in the editing suite and realized that
my microphone has switched on due to
Windows Dugan update I'm putting
everything back to default again no
white good I saw it at the end as I say
I hope it didn't in sport and spoil your
enjoyment too much anyway after that
we've got the control room put in it is
a tight fit probably a test of your
modeling skills because if it's too
loose there's something gotta be wrong
rooms somewhere you really need to make
sure that the ends are clear of paint
glue and everything like that
I'll bought all the compartments and
then it'll slide in gently just checking
just making sure that the cables and
things are trucked behind this stage
then is the final stage where you need
to probably leave it overnight so you
can call back to a with a fresh eye and
have a look completely right the way
through have a touch up with any pain
give it a dust I brought I forgot over
and blown this out with the the airbrush
at Mt airbrush I've gone through with a
duster some q-tips cotton buds cleaned
it all out cleaned all the dust out give
the inside of the clear plastic a clean
and a polish and making sure that
everything's everything's right because
this is the
chance you'll get a bit all good when
you've got this on - I look through
think crack you haven't painted up it
all there's a big lump of glue there
here we go right I'll zoom out so we can
see a little bit better was a find the
button to do it with right because now
we're going to fit fit this bit the
clear plastic yeah it's a bit it's gonna
be a bit difficult to see this one for
the reflections off the clear plastic -
because it's clear a bit difficult to
pick up on camera final check just check
all the lights are on really a little
bit late now because everything is
fastened in now but we could maybe still
try and correct something that's wrong
yep all the lights are on so now we're
gonna go in and fit this I'll move it
down so we could see what's going on
we'll start at the very beginning just
move that around a bit right we need to
do a test fit on this first I've already
done one boots out for the sake of video
and we'll do it again we'll need to make
sure that the locating looks in here now
the pins on here all much dope because
that's how we know it'll fit there are a
couple reasons why this clear plastic
and may not fit one is the it could
quite possibly be twisted excuse me in
that way then you're gonna have to train
adjust it and pull it round so it does
fit in the end - did the compartments
themselves aren't seated properly inside
and some of the
bull cats especially here in the ballast
tank this bit here is ballast oak maybe
catching on the plastic and pushing out
and three underneath along the top here
is a lid just you could just feel it if
you've got the kick you just feel it
there's a lip under there now the deck
needs to fit on top of that and sit on
the top otherwise it'll leave you'll be
a feeling you're feeling lip on the top
so what we're going to do now are with
the use of a number of clips clamps and
masking tape we're now going to attempt
to fit this in its acquisition so here
goes
hopefully there won't be too much
swearing
probably good reason why on the last
section there wasn't a sound really
because swearing is involved in this kit
quite a lot and as I said the tolerances
with trumpeter kits are quite fine so
you know that you're gonna be struggling
a little bit one of the reasons I
decided not to paint this before it goes
on will become apparent as I try to fit
it because the pen is gonna get
scratched on will get scratched if you
paint it and also I wanted to make sure
that I lined everything up and then I
could go across the top and much
everything so where you want some
masking tip might be an idea to pull up
you length of this off I just leave them
handy because you've been doing it
one-handed shortly
what base that are doing at the moment
is just going to try and hold it in
position for a final positioning I'll
make sure everything there first just
uses standard
masking tape it's not going to be on too
long it's not gonna wear effect or leave
stickiness on this surface it's just for
holding things in place that one's gone
in and there's another catch point there
that you might find it's not fitting is
the forward die cleanse the the pin
might catch through the middle so we can
now clump under here
Tom put them there as well right now
this bit at the top the deck as I
mentioned there we go
seating itself in now the deck itself
will need right here we go
the deck itself will need to pull up
just a little bit might be the huh might
be handy to have a small pokey tool just
to lift the deck
[Music]
let's see you can actually feel where
the deck is sitting a little bit proud I
have seen people do this with magnets so
that the the front will come off so they
can paint the whole of the hole and then
take the front off to see inside I had
considered doing that but I don't know
how we'll get the fit each time to hold
all this in but y'all never got that
yeah good good Ally
finally just sorry if I'm getting in the
way the camera but too wet
stick this down finally that one goes on
there but I think apart from a bit of
gluing up we're done before the final
glue goes on one spot there we go the
lights are on
some more just at the front here
it's just a holding out a little bit
proud he said there is an ever so slight
twist just in this hall it's the clear
section the hall itself is fine it's
just a clear section just needs to
conform to all the fixings and physics
bit it's this to go on here mmm these
are excuse me these are the the lights
for there that will connect on to here
remember how we left a tail to go
through the rear end that will go in
there and these will
anyway that deck will go in there are
not gonna force it on while lamb
we're just taking part on the filming
just for demonstration but this reaction
so now we have it's huge just get it all
in now I have a completed whole section
or we will have when it's all glued
together what I'm going to do for
painting as I've mentioned I'll leave it
till it's done leave it's all glue set
that are much the paint or with a reread
that we've already done and then I will
fetch I will leave all this clear all
the compartments are clear the front end
there is a sort of a guideline around
here you'll see only the clear hull you
can see sort of guideline that may be a
suggestion for pitting or it might be
part of the whole template the whole
framing itself the whole plates I'm not
too sure on that but what I'll do I'll
let bring out a little bit further I'm
Pierre down there but that's all part of
the the next video that will be probably
the final video when you come back it
will be painted and we'll look up
putting everything together and
all in with some weathering so I'll go
get all this glued now I'm just going to
use a Tamiya extra thin first of all
I'll just sort of more or less spot weld
it with some quick setting extra thing a
spot will it haul it all in place and
then go around and glue it all down
where to me it to be an extra thing ah
but we'll leave it at that yeah I must
again apologize about the sound sort of
mid video but hopefully we'll get there
at the end
right until next time part 11
the final part I want them all hope
anyway I will see you all next time
thanks for watching don't forget if you
need anything about this kit any
questions contact me teddy model score
don't you care or visit the e models
website a models co uk and be in touch
anyway good new yours have a look at
yours I hope you enjoyed this I will see
you next time bye
