A site all about plastic models. I am not a professional, in the sense that I work on my models only weekends and basically whenever I have some free time. There are sites and people that create the perfect models. My site is for the amateur, for the weekend warrior with suggestions and tips based on my own experiences and mistakes. If I can do them so can you!!!! Above all enjoy the process, feel proud of your work and do not worry if its not perfect or 100% historically accurate.

Since this channel is for amateurs, working over the kitchen counter late at night and weekends after the chords, I made a video of my first attempts on something new. Nothing has to be perfect. As long as I try I know I can improve and in the meantime help others with my mistakes. At the en...

I understand the effect you were trying to get ,but I think the grass makes it look like the plane was abandoned in a jungle. Nice job with the plane though.
😜 never thought of that...i just take all my pictures there...even my ships...thanks for the comment. :)
What Era? 14-18 0r 39- 45
Good morning. This is a wwii field kitchen.
Cool! I’m building the same kit. My second Luftwaffe subject. I love the German colors and the challenging paint schemes. The Me109 is an awesome looking fighter! I prefer its looks over the fw190, even though it was the better plane.
So true German schemes are challenging. I only hand paint and it is the only time I think I have to use a paint gun. Cant do that overlay of colors. Hope you have a good time building the kit and thank you for the comments
Looks great dis you have any fitting issues i want to buy this one but my experience with revell hasn’t been to great
Did*
@@bobsjepanzerkampfwagen4150 Good morning, no fitting issues. Great box. I have fitting issues with the Man o war by revell. This one, the UBoat and the Gorch Fock are all excellent boxes.
Nice build but too many nation flags. At sea you have one flag in the mast. At port you have one big flag in the stern and one small flag in the bow.
thank you for your comment. I added only the flags included in the box and as instructed by Revell.
This a weird kit and a fun all at the same time. How you feel about the finished product is up to you. I couldn't find too many references as to colors etc...but still if what you're after is building an intermediate level kit and getting a descent ship model out of it...this is a good kit.
Couldn't agree with you more. You are right. At the end of the day if you build something and you look at it and feel good about your effort, is all that matters.
Thank you so much. Made my morning. Beautiful plane, the wiring a lot of work. My new project is revells Man O war. Working mainly only weekends i will guess 6 months. My happy 2024 project.
Truly superb! Love the plane, ambulance, characters and the base...New sub and big like!
Impressive attention to details, great job!!👍👍
Thank you for the wonderful comments. Wishing you a great 2024 for you and your family.
I know the feeling. I will check out your models. Thank you

Thank you for the comments. I wish to you and your family a wonderful Christmas time and always in good health.
Excellent chief!
Thank you… if you are planning of building the model… i am here
Nice build 🙌👌
Looking good wow, I just bought this set. What have you used to give this effect on the wooden bridge?
Good morning, thank you for your comments. For the bridge I used the same technique I used for my ship Batavia. I I painted a coat of Humbrol 94 acrylic (you can use any beige color as undercoat), and then passed over it with Liquitex acrylic burnt umber. There is another option, that of using oil paint. Again undercoat with a beige or creamy color and then apply oil paint. You can see my video for the Eduard Albatros D. Va. I just didn't want to bother with the oil paint for that small area. It needs time to dry. The oil paint though creates beautiful woodgrain strokes. Hope I helped and one advice to you. If you are planning of doing the version I did do not make the mistake of painting the white lines on the hull (2:00 of my video)
Πολύ ωραίο
Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ.
Video Editor is my favorite, too
Keeping things simple :) video production not my cup of tea.
AWESOME !
Thank you so much. Always felt bad about the sub cause i lost first place due to one glaring mistake which was the black i used for the tower. It came out shiny compared to the flat paints i used for the rest. On the other hand a few years ago i would not have even thought of taking part to competitions. Learning never stops. :). Give it a go. Great kit
WAY TOO MANY so called judges at model contest's get super uptight about the shade of color or the actual coloer or whatever. AND THEY ARE ALL WRONG. In a combat environment, plane ship, armor-whatever they used the paint they had. SOMETIMES, enemy paint was used. This subject about "The Wrong Color" turns me completely off. You did a great job, period.@@theodorostzitzimbourounis
Goodmorning Mark and thank you. Waking up to positive encouragement is nice these days.
A beautiful plane and a colorful livery! Well done!!

Does it come with PE parts + metal barrel?
Hello. No it does not. No pe parts or metal.
If you are going to use subtitles describing your work, leave it long enough for a speed reader to even read !!
Good morning. Noted. Thought if people wanted to read will pause, so as to avoid lengthy videos, but will do. Thanks for the feedback
Excellent work, your skills are admirable.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. Nice to wake up with some positive comments than all the hate and negative attitude that is around us and on the internet. Good morning, thank you
Omg best on UA-cam, love the weathering, what's the music please?
Good morning and thank you so much for your comments. The music was taken from the music library of youtube. In my comments i wrote the title of it.
Well done! 👍
Thank you 😀
In my expirience, plastic kits of sailing ships are not worth buying. When I got Revell kit of HMS Victory, the masts were so bent that i needed to straighten them up for days. And the hull does not fit in perfectly. In my oppinion, do not buy them.
NICE BOAT ... HOWEVER ,I CO NOT RECOGNIZE THE FLAG ISITTHE NATION OF ASNOWIA ? ? SURE ISN'T THE D K M FLAG :-[
Good morning, thank you for your comments. The flags used are the flags included in the box. I never add pieces or decals to upgrade. I do all models with the items provided in the box. You can download the instructions from Revell and see the decals. Of course Revell as some other companies never included flags or decals with the swastika that is why is just a a white circle.
Great job ! :o)
Thank you Daniel.Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year full of laughter and in good health.
@@theodorostzitzimbourounis Same wishes for you ! :o)
I have the Roden GVb with the blue Lozenge decals. Your video motivated me to start. I like your version very much. 👍👏
Good morning Patrick from sunny Cyprus. It seems we are not going to have an actual winter this year. I wish you good luck and all the patience in the world. As i said not one of my better jobs. I look at it and I am not pleased. Hope you have a better time with it. Avoid doing it around Christmas time so as not to ruin the holidays. :) Let me know when you finish it. Wishing you a lovely Christmas time and a 2023 full of love and above all good health.
A beautiful build. Love the livery!
Thank you so much. Merry Christmas and hope you have a wonderful time over the holidays
Halo
Hello, thanks for visiting hope it helped.
This is one terrible model. Very, very poor quality.
Good morning, yeap it was not the best choice for getting into this hobby. Showed its age...still something came out of it.
Looks hidious! The rat lines….
@@theodorostzitzimbourounis your build is damn nice.
Hässlich wie die Nacht. Billig und richtig schlecht gebaut.
Loved this.. One suggestion.. could you hold the captions on screen just a bit longer for slow readers like me? Loved you build ... I'm a big fan of Great War warbirds, and your build and diorama are just super! Thank you!
Thank you Mark for your comments and your suggestion. You are correct.
Excellent! Magnificent weathering. 👍👍
Thank you for your very kind comments on both models. Working on models only when having some free time it feels good. Thinking of starting the bismarck over the winter. Say hi to USA. Studied in michigan (upper peninsula) many many moons ago.
A magnificent build of a tricky model. I’ve built a half dozen WWI Roden kits and all were an “adventure “. Your detailing is just gorgeous. I subscribed. 👍
Toop Toop
trudno nawet nazwać to coś słabym modelem. level wykonania zero
Thank you for commenting. Ii am not sure what you were saying even though i translated. Its a fine model and an easy one. I just mentioned the problem with the instructions so others will not spend time thinking they did something wrong
Excellent! Would this piece be for sale?
Thank you. Honored that you think is good enough to buy. Not for sale. Even if i was to consider it by the time it got to your hands the sub would be 1000 pieces! 🤪
An sniper with an flamethrower???
:) that is the name of the box!
𝐩𝓻Ỗ𝓂Ø𝓈M
Six long months since the last video. Sometimes things do not go according to plan. Point is, no matter the obstacles to do your best. This applies to our hobby and to life. Got up on the 23rd of December to go shopping for Christmas dinner and since then 6 months past just to be able to say “almost all back to normal”. As long as we are with the living might as well make the most of it. This is a small diorama. Nothing much to say other than excellent detail. Check the site of customscale.de for more boxes.
Excellent work..!
Goodmorning. Thank you. Hopefully i will have something new in a month. Unfortunately 2022 has not been kind so far.
You are doing some great modeling works..! And million thanks for sharing..
Nice 👍 work. Well done.
STUPID CHOICE OF MUSIC
I hope at least the ship was to your liking sir. Thank God then for the mute button
Cool ship, but -1 point for most likely being the ship used to colonize my country lol
It looks too much like a 9b. 9c had the 3rd periscope removed
Incrível ótimo trabalho 👍
Thank you for the nice comment. Wishing you a great 2022 always in good health
