I'm not a modeller - this just came up in my UA-cam feed. I watched every second. I just couldn't tear myself away as each part became more detailed and realistic. Really, really cool. You are a master at what you do!
39:05 "Thank you for watching this long video," he says, as if I wasn't utterly mesmerized by every second of absolute artistry I just watched from beginning to end!
All this from a "snap together", just goes to show what skill and patience can do. I've watch the entire series on this jet and enjoyed them all. Great job David! Congrats!
Also Boeing: "WOW! Your model kit looks as worn as the oldest Super Hornets (2000) do now!" Seriously. I think the first production lot Super Hornets (E and F models) are about service life expired unless they underwent structural reinforcement. The airframes were originally guaranteed to 6000hrs but the Navy was looking at extending to 8000 and possibly 10,000hrs per plane. The Super Hornet will be around until at least the 2030s and possibly the 2040s. Production has already been extended past the original contract. The F-35 is just too expensive and it's not reliable no matter what the Lockheed fanboys say. I think the Navy is buying less than 300 F-35C's.
@@AvengerII actually ther thinking about making the current super hornets into block 3 variants so that means all hornets will be up graded while keeping the f35s as well. the Navy will be using both aircraft well into the 2040s and beyond till something better is made
I’ve built models since I was a little kid and I stared like everyone else back in the day of modeling but watching this I’m utterly impressed on so many levels. I’m going to actually give some of your ideas on my next model. Keep on modeling.

Amazing work! When I was a kid in the 80’s i wanted to make a model that looks exactly like the one they put in the front of the model kit box, now that I see this man make model kits, the box pictures from the 80’s look cheap..lol
This video just convinced me to pick up scale modeling again. As someone that liked to make scale models in highschool (and was fairly mediocre at it), I found your work on this project to be seriously f***ing impressive!!! Now that youtube and scale model channels like yours exist for me to learn new tricks from, I feel super inspired to get way better at it this time around!
I consider myself to be an advanced modeler, maybe an 85-90 on a scale of 100....that would make you a 125 on the same scale. I've never seen a 1/72nd scale kit of any kind done with such amazing attention to detail. Superb work sir!
The craftmanship and attention to detail here is in a league of its own. Extremely impressive. Takes a lot of research and a lot of experience to reach this level of perfection. And in the tiny 1/72 scale!
I love the names the Japanese modeling companies give their model paints and glues. "Mr. Paint!" "Mr. Glue!" It's either very basic English or someone in that modeling industry has a sense of humor... It's actually charming. Cute and gets to the point! In Europe and the US, they'd probably label the glues "Mr. Brain Damage if You Smell Me Too Long" and the paints "Mr. NEVER the Same Color Twice!"
Most of the American product names are ridiculous. I half expect a small print post script under the name to say, "just incase you're too stupid to understand what this product does". Their next amended death penalty policy change will probably be called the "KILIT QWIK" act.
David makes a show winning masterpiece out of a snap kit! Next he'll make one out of a solid block of plastic. I always learn something new from your series David and frantically look up the supplies and tools you list to put on my wishlist.
"So I made special tools". I've been doing that almost 40 years. Most of my builds spawned micro-saws, micro-chisels, bores and awls, scribing templates and panel patterns specific to the make and model. Your video production values and pacing are eminently watchable, from a fellow modeller who can't leave kit parts alone! It's a matter of technical necessity that I correct glaring or subtle inaccuracies. I have so many similar "pecadillos" while kit-bashing. And it's nice to see someone else do a lot of them, too, in a compact and extensive summary. Now and then I have received surprised comments, from builds I post, that, "It's 1/72nd?! It looks 1/48th!" That has to be the ultimate compliment. Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to produce these wonderful "How-to" episodes.
Superb as usual. I was in the Pukin' Dogs in the 90s when they flew Tomcats, you have really captured the essence of a US Navy Super Hornet. Thanks David.
Plasmo delivers as usual! With all the madness going on in the world right now I find these videos calming and a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much for sharing your model build! I use to build models as a child but lacked the skill and tools for a very good build. I started building again and use your videos as a reference. Also, narrating what paint and parts are used really helps. Thank you so much! I hope you continue to do more builds.
Whenever David says "Hello fellow modellers!" I feel like I am on the pitch with Johan Cruijff, Pele and Messi and they say "Hello Fellow Player!". Incredible stuff...
I was making "wow" and "oh" and "woot" sounds throughout, but when the lighter smacked me in the face with the real meaning of 1/72 i went completely silent. RESPEKT, Davide. A stejně jseš mag*r, tohle je neuvěřitelné :D
Couldn't agree more. That work of art up against the cigarette lighter really drove home how utterly impressive the scale he works at is. Absolute work of art.
Who else wants to see Plasmo take on a "mega kit" like a 1/32 Lancaster or Airfix 1/24 Hellcat? Just imagine the detail and the hour long video... To call this man a modeller is kind of inaccurate, he's an artist who uses plastic.
@@TheModelGuy I would absolutely love to see it. Which reminds me I need to catch up on YOUR videos too, word to the wise, the Airfix Lighting in 48th scale would be a good subject for you. I can guarantee every single British modeller would watch it. Great to see you are a fan of Plasmo dude, can see it in your work.
Great work. Reminds me when i was a teen ager, i took a b17 flying fortress kit, and made it beaten down and battle scarred to match the movie HEAVY METAL. Heated a compass tip to melt bullet holes, and touched everything up with an airbrush. I paused the movie repeatedly to match every damaged part and the name of the plane, PACIFIC PEARL. I'll admit, it was an amateur attempt, but i was proud of it. Like you, i didnt stop at the assembly instructions. Again, great job.
1:1 scale more like it. That is a real plane! No way that is a model, particularly a 1:72 scale. Probably one of my favorite builds to watch, sir. I wish I could see it in person. Fantastic build!!!
I’m working with F/A-18 and I can say I never saw more realistic model in my life)) . Even with close look all details is accurate. Thanks for this amazing video)) Paint on F/A-18 is matt so that’s the reason why jet looks dirty. All jets washed every 14 days. )))
As an ex-Navy aviator (both aircrew and ground crew) I am extremely impressed! The level and attention to detail you put into this is amazing. Made me rethink my plastic model game. BZ! (Bravo Zulu!)
Just tremendous. Anyone in to modeling knows that there are a myriad of skill sets and varying degrees of expertise within all of them. As you build more and more kits, your skill level becomes evident. Almost like a time-line of progress in the hobby. I am astounded by David's inventiveness in applying multiple skill sets together and...well, just the breadth of his knowledge in materials, casting, technique, and, well, Jesus,...just the fact that he knows MULTIPLE ways to achieve effects with different materials, paint techniques, or applications. As impressive as his casting ability is ("casted using a vacuum resin caster to remove bubbles," cus who doesn't have 30 of those lying around?), its his painting that makes him a true artist. It is the hardest technique for most modelers to learn and to learn to do very well. Mixing consistent ratios, steadiness of hand on small parts, nozzle size and psi on airbrushing for different applications, etc, are all issues burgeoning modelers struggle with. David is an absolute master of every displayed discipline. Superb results out of a very modest kit. I am in awe.
Every time I feel down and just had enough of life I come back to your videos and every single time they light the fire of modelling again.... Thank you David for this!
The colored foil is an AMAZING IDEA. just wow! Those would look so cool on the optical system of tanks and other vehicles that usually have that purple hue to it.
I absolutely love that end result. I'm fighter nerd so I really appreciate the attention to detail. Small nit pick tho, when the folding wings are folded, the trailing and leading edge slats are in their neutral position.
Awesome as always - some folk are kind about my model making, but you take it to another level! I point them to your channel and say, 'thank you for the kind compliments, but no........ this guy (Plasmo) is a great modeller!' Here's a tip though, some bolt head and rivet detail can be added, before, or after priming, using a pin and Resin W (white PVA of the correct thickness), with practice good bolt heads or rivets can be achieved (then over painted with top coat or base colour).
Good grief. Absolutely phenomenal. I love watching you modify and improve kits. While I may never go quite as far as you do, you give me tons and tons of great ideas, advice, and inspiration. Amazing work again.
If your program was 4 hours long .. I would watch it.. and still not think it was long enough! Beautifully done, presented and crafted!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TALENTS WITH US ❤️ from Oklahoma, USA
I didn't realize it was a real model until I opened the video. I thought it was a 3D model... It is very cool! Such detail at such a scale... sometimes I can't thread a needle through the eye, but there are so many very small details!
This is incredible! The skill and attention to detail is second to none. I could only dream of having the patients and talent to bring a model kit to life like this. Fantastic work my friend!
That sir is some of the best inspirational modelling I have ever seen. I showed it to my wife who said why does he do it. I said “ because he can my dear.” Brilliant.

The modeling IS fantastic but can we take a moment and just appreciate the excellent Video Documenting and Editing skills PLASMO has (as well as the patience to produce this) to be able to bring this Modeling skill to us on youtube? All Around AMAZING.
AAAHHH Just as I remembered them.....but it's been many years! You have captured the essences of the real thing. I worked for McDonnell-Douglas from Oct 87 to Jul 99 in St Louis, MO. I only got to be on the first 6 SDD aircraft back in the mid 90's. I also was on the C&D models within my time there.
dude, every single model you make blows me away with the sheer detail and skill you incorporate into them. seriously, I love your modelling art and I hope some day, with enough practice, I will be as good as you.
Jamais havia tido o privilégio de ver algo tão perfeito... Você é um verdadeiro artista. É tão impressionante o nível de detalhes que colocou nesse modelo que chego a ficar sem adjetivos pra expressar o quão impressionado estou. Ao visualizar a exibição final de seu modelo, é como se estivesse olhando para o próprio avião em escala normal e recém chegado de uma missão. Você deu vida a um modelo que, se montado segundo orientação de qualquer manual, ficaria artificial, mas você o tornou real. Seria uma honra ter um trabalho desse de um artista como você. Meus sinceros parabéns!!!

Try watching it stoned :P so mesmeric
David has the patience of an ancient chinese jeweler, or a "Saint's Hand". It's a very beautyful and spectacular work. Thank you very much for all your useful tips. ¡Máster Modeller! ¡I Salute You, with all my respect from Guatemala, The Land of Quetzal Bird, Símbol of Freedom.
Outstanding; instructive; inspiring and entertaining as always!!! Thank you sincerely for sharing your exemplary skills, talent, and very useful techniques!!!! BRAVO!!
Wow,from basic 'toy'to super detailed!I'm amazed.Used to model kits myself,years ago,but i gave up.
I’ve been watching you for years, I would have to say this is one of your best videos to date!. Keep up the good work I love what you are doing and I Learn so much from you. Thank you.
Hands down the greatest model builder of all time unbelievable
One of those: "WTF just happened here" moments. WOW
When you skip 3 minutes and it goes from him snapping pieces together to him casting resin
The modeling IS fantastic but can we take a moment and just appreciate the excellent Video Documenting and Editing skills PLASMO has (as well as the patience to produce this) to be able to bring this Modeling skill to us on youtube? All Around AMAZING.
You are a master of modelling, what a masterpiece!Thank You for all your knowledge being passed on to an amateur modeller like myself.
Mate, you are like some sort of 'mad professor' of the modelling world. Your work is exceptional.
Bro plasmo making my favorite aircraft is a dream come true. Though I would prefer he built the superbug but all plasmo videos are good plasmo videos
Unbelievable. Modelling elevated to high art. Absolutely unbelievable.
"Doesn't need any improvement" The biggest Plasmo lie every! Great work!
Dude... You're insane. I watch almost every video of yours and always end up standing in awe.
It's like seeing a Swiss watchmaker.
AAAHHH Just as I remembered them.....but it's been many years! You have captured the essences of the real thing. I worked for McDonnell-Douglas from Oct 87 to Jul 99 in St Louis, MO. I only got to be on the first 6 SDD aircraft back in the mid 90's. I also was on the C&D models within my time there.
Me think of trying to build a model kit: well who’s perfect? After watching Plasmo’s videos: man ... he is perfect. (Never starting the build)
dude, every single model you make blows me away with the sheer detail and skill you incorporate into them. seriously, I love your modelling art and I hope some day, with enough practice, I will be as good as you.
"I have to make some 'minor' modifications."
*'minor'*
EXACTLY, LMAO
Good skill
Jamais havia tido o privilégio de ver algo tão perfeito... Você é um verdadeiro artista. É tão impressionante o nível de detalhes que colocou nesse modelo que chego a ficar sem adjetivos pra expressar o quão impressionado estou.
Ao visualizar a exibição final de seu modelo, é como se estivesse olhando para o próprio avião em escala normal e recém chegado de uma missão.
Você deu vida a um modelo que, se montado segundo orientação de qualquer manual, ficaria artificial, mas você o tornou real.
Seria uma honra ter um trabalho desse de um artista como você.
Meus sinceros parabéns!!!
These 40 minutes flew like a rocket
"The difference is not negible" - you humble rascal you. That's amazing job man.

I've been modeling for years but watching what you can achieve really blows my mind. Amazing skills my friend.
