Well, hello there and welcome to my channel. I know that Messerschmidts, Tigers and the Bismark are awesome but here it's all about their predecessors from the First World War. If you're into wood grain painting, biplane rigging or trench mud orgies: go no further, you came to the right place. And if not: have a seat anyway and discover some weird machinery that no sane mind would even consider to go to war with nowadays. Hope you enjoy my content!
Cheers,
Tim

Super-Detailing a WW1 Aircraft Engine (Fokker D VII F by Wingnut Wings)
The Fokker DVII was the most superior fighter plane in the first World War so if that's not a reason to feature it on my channel then what is? The second episode will be all about the BMW engine, which - as usual with Wingnut Wings kits - is quite a handful :) Furthermore, we will paint the fuselage with its field applied signature all red scheme and the iconic LO! insignia

A Pilot, a Pipe And Some (Static) Grass - The NIEUPORT XVII is done!
Переглядів 10 тис.2 роки тому
The Nieuport XVII (Late Version) by Copper State Models is a beautiful scale model kit in 1/32. If you want to see it being built step-by-step with cringy commentary and subpar camera work - look no further. This is the last part of a 4-part series: We're finally approaching the pilot figure - something that's miles outside of my comfort zone. The figure is also by Copper State Models. Furtherm...

amazing job ! great
Hi, any progress on this one, please
Amazing work and detail. However, the ‘handle’ you mention on the fuselage is a footwell for pilot cockpit access.
Rotary engines slung caster oil all over the belly and lower surface of the wing. And yes it cam loosen you up. old rhinebeck aerodrome in up state NY has WW1 aircraft they fly in a vaudvill era air show. You can see Fokkers Sopwiths Nieuports albatrosses. Most with original engines.
What scale ?

Holy sh…
Thank you
Spectacular.
Thanks mate
I really hope you continue with your current videos. These are great
That's the plan, even though time is a bit scarce for now
I have An Albatros D.III and an SE.5a Hispano Suiza in my little stash. Now I've never built an aircraft from WW1, all I have done is WW2 armour and warbirds. I'm a little apprehensive about the rigging, are there many do's and don'ts when it comes to rigging? and what are they? I want to get on and start them but honestly this is making me back off from them. Love your build, great stuff it really is.
@@dandy193 thanks a lot. You can skip the turnbuckles and use elastic strings for rigging, it's a bit more convenient than the fishing line. Also, fix one side of the rigging while the wings are not attached to minimize fiddling work
Hey Tim, what’s your Instagram if you have one?
@@cfranko1860 hey, it's @alleyman_models
Great work
Thank you! Cheers!
Just discovered your channel and I’m hoping that you’ll pick up where you left off and post more videos! Your skills are amazing but more importantly, you do a great job of demonstrating them and illustrating your techniques. This and the professional quality of your videos makes them such a pleasure to watch. Please come back!
Thanks mate! While my last upload has been a while, I'm still looking at the Fokker everyday and I want to finish it before the end of the year.
Such an amazing channel! I do hope you come back
Thanks mate, aiming for a new video by the end of the year
Beautiful job. Nice details.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful.
Thank you!
I hope wa could see the end of this very nice build sometime !! This is the best WNW build video on the internet !
Wow, thanks a lot and I promise that the Fokker won't stay a shelf queen forever
I love WW1 aircraft, but the rigging always puts me off.
Give it a try with elastic strings and without turnbuckles. It's more convenient and looks great as well
That was greaat
Thank you
Great kit and excellent build!
Thanks a lot
Nice work. 👍
Thanks 👍
Goodness. You take detail to a whole new level. Just within the first five minutes, I have learned a lot - including to stay clear of larger scales that require that much detail - lol. I saw a comment on your music choice. Another compliment. It is not intrusive over your speech nor annoying, yet not boring either. Nice job!
Thanks mate. Yes the large scale planes can be a handful (see my current hiatus). On the other hand, the 1/32 WW1 planes are not much larger than an 1/48 WW2 fighter.
Hello, i am modeller from Tromsø in Norway. I wonder if you plan to upload any new videos in near future. Best wishes .
Man, I miss your further content, Herr Alleyman. Best in the business! (IMHO).
What a great treasure chest of outstanding modeling projects. Thanks for the obvious effort you put into such professional "productions" I'm certainly looking forward to future episodes where I can learn more, and as important, get to admire your skill.. Not to be taken as a complaint: I find the in-and-out background "music" distracting from your wonderfully crafted narration and sly humor.
Hey, thanks a lot for your appreciation and the constructive feedback. I'm still looking for a perfect way to handle the music in scenes where I don't talk. I tried with just no sound but it appeared weird to me 😅 it will remain like this in the last video of this series for consistency but I have a few ideas in mind for upcoming projects.
Wow, that is amazing!
No smoking on the flight line, but excellent results on that base, and pilot also the aircraft.
Thanks a lot. Hesitated with smoke residue but didn't really see them on my references so I stayed away
Please make more videos! I just got into ww1 planes after building pretty much every ww2 kit.. you are so talented!
Thank you so much. I'm currently figuring out a "master plan" to get out more videos. I will soon be back, promised :)
Absolutely beautiful attention to detail!

Just discovered your videos and this is the first one that I've seen, it's fantastic. Will certainly watch the rest of the series and I've subscribed to your channel. Just one comment, why did you completely obscure the lozenge patton with red paint, there must have been a reason?
When you did the oil streaking on your prop, did you use a brush moistened with white spirit/mineral spirits, or did you do it with a dry brush?
Thats some magnificient work ! But why u using fishing line ?? There's better solution in modeling on the market .
On the market: yes. In my stash at the time: no 😅😅 jokes aside, you're right I think I will go for elastics for future projects
отличное видео!
*aluminium
I opted for the US pronunciation in this video due to a lack of better knowledge 😅
@@TheAlleyman all good just me being a knob a month ago
Waiting patiently for part 3, I’m really looking forward to it
Thanks mate, blocked some time for it and aiming for the end of December.
I totally understand the Lozenge thing . For 50 years I thought George was pronounced , JEE OR J . Then I had a thought , it may be a Russian name . So it might be pronounced GEE OR GEE .
Bitte fortsetzen!
This is excellent, some great tips... Ive subscribed so will be looking out for more. Thanks
Thanks a lot! My upload schedule is as irregular as it gets but I will push out some new content eventually
Whoah
skiping the primer leads to unpleasant surprises, no matter the subject painted
Depends a bit on the paint. Lacquer or alcohol based acrylic on (clean) plastic is pretty safe. Water based acrylics without primer is a different story...
Thanks for your very nice video.
Thank you!
Thanks for your terrific video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is a great series of videos. Thank you for taking the time to make them and also for making them so entertaining with your humor.
