    I was an AF aircrew member on a variation of the C-47/DC-3 during the Vietnam War in 1970 & 1971. I flew on 146 combat missions. Watching this assembly brought back so many memories. I love your attention to detail, and you are very meticulous in the assembly. Naturally, I have models of the C-47, but not to your high caliber. Great job!

    Dear David, I had foolishly thought that you had reached a peak of perfection with the Viper. I was wrong! This is a step higher! Very well done for your work of art and your patience to explain each step to us 'normal' scale modelers.

    Took one wild ride in 1980, at night from Missoula to Billings with a 20 man fire-crew. An old Johnson, Smokejumper's DC-3(?) with both sides bench seats locked upright, gear tied into aluminum floor. Crew on gear, or wherever else you could hold on. Turbulence dreadful. We survived, what a bird. Nice tribute, Plasmo..

    No, Sir, I don't just like and appreciate some of it.
    I really like and appreciate ALL of it 1000 percent!!! The craftsmanship and attention to detail that you put in to building this DC-3, and the great job that you did in videoing the build should make you very, very proud!!!
    I am honored to have the unique privilege of seeing you do this. Thank you very much for sharing it with us!!!
    I will be 73 y.o. this coming September (2020), and I truly wish that this modeler's hands were still steady enough to do this kind of model building again. But, I have to live with memories of my model building days, and vicariously enjoy the process while I watch others, such as yourself, carry on the model building hobby!!! Great Job!!
    I grew up in Racine, WI (USA) right along the western shore of Lake Michigan right before the jet airliner age started!!! This was right before O'Hare International Airport was built!!!
    I know very well the rumble of the twin engines of the DC-3 aircraft as they flew relatively low over our house!!! If you draw a straight flight path between Midway Airport on the extreme westside in Chicago, IL (USA), and General (Billy) Mitchell Field on the very farthest southern edge of Milwaukee, WI (USA), and you trace a perpendicular line from Lake Michigan to this flight path you can get a general idea of where I am talking about. The flight distance is a very short 90 air miles from Chicago to Milwaukee, so you can understand that the planes in those days (1950's) were pretty close over head... by today's jet airliner standards. I always felt as a kid that I might be able to reach straight up and touch them!!! 👍👽
    Alas, one day the Boeing 707 jet liner took their place and flew impossibly higher overhead!!! The jetliner had arrived over our house and changed everything overnight!!
    The flight path(s) are now out of reach overhead, and the sounds of jet engines have replaced the sounds of reciprocating propeller planes (sigh!!!), and it has never been quite the same since then; and it is a lot more impersonal!!!
    But occasionally when the weather forces the jetliners to fly very low approach paths, the jetliners fly so low overhead and the sound of their engines (seems) like they are just about at roof top level, that I have to look up and wonder how it must have been right BEFORE the first airplane ever flew. (No, I don't want to go back to those days, thank you very much. 😎😄✈️
    Thanks again for a superb job all the way around!!!👽👍😁

      yes, very nice, and the techniques shown here are "translatable" to many multi-engine aircraft, in a natural metal finish. The one thing that all that electronic "smoke and mirrors" stuff convinced me of is: I never want to do it. Models are not "toys" to me. Well maybe I might do some, with due restraint, for lighting up a space craft model, in a diorama scene where it is dark all the time,.... you know, ….like in deep space, or on the far side of a tidally-locked planet or the moon!! : ) Might be a "future" project for you, if you have not already done so!!

    Pure art, your skilled hands can create a model so realistic that if you've put it outside and taken a close up picture it would've been difficult to believe it was a model and not the real thing. One thing I would've done well 2 haha first find a way to dim the brightness of the lights and second, use the same yellow lights you used in the cabin for the outside as well. But lights or no lights it is pure art still amazing just amazing.

    What an amazing achievement, I love the level of detail and patience you put into each model. I love this idea of adding lights and moving props Displays with functionality. Its given me a really good idea for a project I will be starting soon and now it HAS to have lights in. Well done David keep up the top quality work. Id suggest heat shrink for the wire connectors rather than electrical tape its a little easier imo and takes up less space.
    Look forward to the next one.

    Excellent build of an aviation legend. One little trick I use on all my model power lead wires is to make the positive and negative leads different lengths so that the solder joints cannot touch. Rather than twisting the ends together, I make very short stripped and tinned ends that I solder together in a straight connection. One small piece of heat shrink tubing will cover the whole connection and doesn't increase the outer diameter of the leads by much, making stashing the wires easier.

    Nice work and great video. Good idea to paint the leds with proper color. I always used the colored LEDs with clear lenses or colored lenses as appropriate and shaped the actual led to the proper shape. I used the LM3909 flasher chip and rheostat and resistor (all from Radio Shack back in the day) to get the flashing the proper frequency and adjust to proper brightness. Cabin lights were dimmed pretty low) I did a Learjet 35 in 1988 with cabin lights, cockpit (using homemade fiber optics and Green LEDs for the CRTs (Pre-glass cockpit Learjet)), wingtip navs and rotating anti-collision beacons. I put the rotating red beacons on separate chips so they could flash out of synchrony. I don't recall the anti-collision beacons (red flashing) on your model. Some are strobes and some are slow flashers because they are actually rotating beacons in a teardrop shaped housing. The older ones were rotating beacons so on a C-47 they would not be strobes unless it is a modernized one. Love your vids. You have a real talent.

    David, could you possibly do a WWII bomber (say a B-24?) that was hit with flak and bullets and just made it back to it's base but had to 'crash land' because only one engine was working and only one of the landing gear would deploy properly. Or something similar. You do such marvelous models and dioramas that I think it would look wonderful. Just a thought on my part. PEACE:)

    Tipp: use glasfibers to guide the light precisely to the spot you want it to be. It also makes it also easier to change LEDs if they quit service against expect.
    In the Miniaturwunderland they also use extremely tiny LEDs (below SMT scale) who are pre-wired but I couldnt find them in the internet.

    I haven't used any of the Mr series products, so I don't know the difference between that and what I have used. So far I really like the Vallejo Metal Color series paints. I find they have a very realistic color/tone, are easy to use and are affordable.
    That was a really cool build and gave me a bit of inspiration to build some models with lights and moving components. Yet again, another great video. Thanks for sharing.

    Very nice build.
    Also showing very well techniques used especially for painting the model.
    I'm mostly in railway modeling (altough I do a plane now and then) the techniques shown can be translated ver well to this, being it for painting and weathering building structures or rolling stock.
    The incorporation of lights and spinning props were nice details, a source for the small motors can be old mobile phones, as the vibration function uses such small motors with an excentric weight on the shaft, the only challenge is to remove those weights without destroying the motor, best is to cut these off with a sturdy pair of side cutters, cutting trough the weight and not the shaft.
