Building Airfix Jet Provost T.4 - Model Aircraft

A timelapse build and review of Airfix's 1/72 scale Hunting Percival Jet Provost T.4 plastic model kit. The Provost was the RAF's premier jet basic trainer in the late '50s through to the '70s. It proved reliable and easy to learn on.

I would recommend this kit to beginners. More advanced modellers may want to check out the non-starter set version.

Airfix provided me with this kit for free, however they have not paid me or told me what to do or say. My opinions are honest and my own.

Kendall finished this model even before the live stream, making it her first model ever! She did have some help from me (Owen) but most importantly she paid attention to detail, was patient and took her time.
I'd like to know what people thought of the editing of this video. It's more choppy, but only sped up 8x maximum. Is it clearer and easier to watch? Should I edit more videos in this way?

I understand companies' inclination to putting out "Starter Sets!" with "Everything you need to build this model!" but to suggest that even a skilled modeller could brush-paint a flawless gloss red finish is ridiculous! I like the idea of labelling kits with skill levels, and one could easily include a sheet of "tips and products you can use to built this kit well." They've been putting out beginners' kits with lousy glue and paint since I was a kid, and I doubt anyone who used the "enclosed materials" was ever encouraged to build more.
Still, credit for a game try, Kendall. Looks better than I thought it would!

Well maybe airfix didn't tell her what to say, but it sounds like Owen did, lol.

Great to see new people on this channel, Owen. I'm really happy to see that you have friends who likes making model kits. I wish i have friends that likes making models as much as i do. Great job on the kit Kendall, I hope to see you making more soon

Congratulations to kendal for an outstanding first attempt at a scale model, also I think she did superbly for her first time in your YouTube channel well done Kendal, (if your reading this) and I hope to see you in more videos in the future!

PS. I like Owens idea for her next kit, the 1:24 typhoon 👌🏻😂

I hope kendall will continue to build kits and have fun with this great hobby. Nice Job on the Video and for a first model she did a really exceptional job and it looked good.

I found it funny how she uses the exact same words you use in your other videos.

Man wish I could get my wife into model making 🙄. Great job on your first kit, Kendall, welcome to the hobby!

[CT--pedk]

Awesome, i thought it was just Owen who made videos, but this was definitely a useful and great video. Thanks guys!

[OLDSMARKARL]

Great job for a first effort!   Red, yellow, and white are the hardest colors to hand brush, especially the glosses, but your work looks terrific!

Way to go Kendall. Congratulations for your first model airplane. It's very beautiful. Keep it up.

Outstanding for a first build! And it builds into a really nice little model. Well done Kendall!

Owen, its nice to see a young lady step up and give it a go, I thought she did a fine job, nice job Kendall.

Good build of a good kit. A superb build for a first kit. A couple of errors, one of Airfix's making (I told them about it when I saw the pre-pro at Telford. The centre bracing on the canopy is on the inside and should be black (they also missed the perspex fairing behind the rear of the canopy frame). Aftermarket guys please take note.
The other a small one but RAF fin flashes always have the red at the front.
Not nit picking your model, it lokks superb. Just constructive advice.
Oh and incidentally, I have many hundreds of hours working on jet provs and I hope my Airfix ones look as good as yours when done.
Nice one Kendall.

Awesome video Kendall! For a first timer this was fantastic! I can imagine Owen helped you out haha! Keep it up!

[jackhutchinson]

When I first came across your channel it is what really got me into modeling.

[jackkevillemedia]

A well built kit and a great video, good work Kendall/Owen.
