Some of you may have watched the long version of this video before. I ruined some good content with a terrible edit and had it removed from the channel. I worked on it over the weekend and made it into a watchable and useful video. Additionally, KZbin views have dropped to ridiculous levels since the new year. I'm thinking of revamping the channel's momentum by overhauling poorly edited videos like this before committing to new content. Please don't forget to like and comment so that the video reaches more people! Thanks for watching!

[@Chilly_Billy]

I'm amazed to hear viewership is down. Your channel is among my personal top 2 or 3 modeling channels on all of KZbin.

[@markburgess4528]

Maybe views are down because I would say the majority of your viewers, like me are predominately aircraft modellers. When I found your channel I loved the way you presented them, showing the colours used etc. I appreciate that these probably took ages to make but I learned loads from you. Personally I am not so interested in cars and don't always watch those videos. I did actually save the original 162 videos in my watch later and found that although not listed anymore, I could still watch them and used them when I built my 162. I also did the same with a video of your visit to a model show which I really enjoyed too. Best wishes, Mark

[@paulhungerford4166]

Sorry to hear your viewership is down, but I too have learned a lot of higher end technique’s that other modelers knew but were never shared with. Your tutorials are amazing and since retiring from full-sized aircraft, my plastic aircraft hobby has flourished watching your videos, continue the awesome work!

[@markfergerson2145]

Viewership is way down for many creators, not just modelers either. KZbin seems to be actively sabotaging many very popular channels. It makes no sense but here we are. I thought I recognized this build. Do whatever you think will help.

[@markburgess4528]

@@markfergerson2145 Do you think that the amount of ads that KZbin is pumping out now part of the problem? I was watching a vid the other day and there were ads every 5 minutes or so.

It’s a simple aircraft kit but looks complicated once assembled. “Punches above its class.” Well done!

[@ravensfootball52]

I can’t see why viewers are dropping. Your channel is incredible, especially for inexperienced modelers

[@richardbartlett1294]

Beautiful assembly and explanation of your methods. WELL DONE SIR.

[@PJHamann1]

Lovely little kit, and you have done a very nice job on it, bringing out it's qualities without the use of expensive extras and hours of scratch building. Though I can appreciate those thigs, this is my favorite kind of build, as it makes the hobby more accessible, in my opinion anyway. Cheers!

[@jonathansteadman7935]

Honestly, you're one of the best out there, really great job. 👍

[@justinfuller8803]

Excellent video and modelling techniques. First class all round!

[@fotomakr]

The engine dry brushing is a new one and really like it’s simplicity and punch.

[@tombower450]

I only recently found your channel and I think it's one of the best I've found! You're method of showing the paint, thinner used, paint to thinner ratio, airbrush needle size and air pressure extremely helpful. Your method of showing how you weather and materials used is also extremely helpful. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend your channel to everybody I know. Doesn't matter if they were beginners or experienced builders. Please keep your videos coming!

[@dusanbolek8004]

A few years ago when I was getting back to the hobby after many years of focusing on other things in life, I used this video to catch up with all the developments in the hobby that happened in the meantime. Never had a chance to thank you for it, because it was then taken down and was no longer available. So I want to do it now, when it reemerged. I have built quite a few kits since, but I'm still building my modelling skills on top of the foundations I learned from this tutorial. Thank you.

[@Scaleaton]

Thank you so much for your comment.

[@janvanrenselaar5998]

Simple and sweet little kit,that brought me into the plane building after i only builded cars. Still cars are my Nr 1, But kits like this have made me open up my horizon a bit. You can build this with very few tools,paints and in my case Talent of weathering. Wish i could build planes like Mr Scale a Ton like the F-15 he did. But who knows maybe in the future.

[@ujona]

Truly therapeutic and always find peace with all your videos my friend.

[@matthewashley7138]

I have tried several ways to make triangular seatbelt parts and only upon seeing the simple method you used did I realize I was outsmarting myself while getting meager results the entire time. Thank you for this ingenious and uncomplicated technique.

[@foreverplastickits138]

*The quality of the Tamiya model kits and a beautiful paint, marvelous result!*

[@stevenpiper970]

very well done, i enjoyed your build.

[@agermangineer]

Love the black engine with the silver weathering! I wanna build a model just to glance at that result! Well done!

[@edwardknudsen4806]

Beautiful work. The engine is amazing!

[@billbrowning3021]

Looking good!. I appreciate your efforts to improve the channel…..

[@davidgray9816]

I love this!!! I would love to see a list of tools you have.

[@markusv311]

Very nice Salamander👌

[@llukas87]

Thank you for your content. Nice video. I'm looking forward to another fighter. Maybe p-51B from Eduard? 😊

[@MrRomSo]

I like it! The same way how you've painted the wings, I started to paint my kits around 3 years ago. With this, I save a lot of time with skipping different x-shadings and I save paint too. Moreover paint layer is thinner which is especially useful for 72nd scale.

[@mullins6429]

Very nice model. That engine weathering and detail is really good 👍🇦🇺

[@АлександрДорошенко-в7ъ]

Браво! Хорошая работа!

[@ricardoroberto7054]

I have just found your channel. Superb model. Very well done. If you have not seen it I suggest you read the excellent book Thunder over the Reich by Wolfgang Wollenweber who was in JG1 and writes extensively about the He162. Amazing record.

[@ho-2036]

Excellent work as always! I think views are dropping on a lot of videos that require an attention span of more than 30 seconds. The rapid growth in shorts is drawing a lot of people away from meaningful content.

[@Scaleaton]

Thanks for the feedback. Nowadays somethings going wrong with KZbin. Many content creators I am following complaining that problem too.

[@massmike11]

I normally skip the shorts, they never go in depth enough to useful.

[@Patrick-jx2zi]

Excellent work on the seat belts!

[@foabmoab]

This kit was the first I ever attempted to put aftermarket resin upgrade parts into. Some bits I didn't end up using because they wouldn't all fit in there at once. Still haven't fully finished it off, hah. Probably been about 6 years since it was 'nearly' completed.

[@edutaimentcartoys]

amazing aircaft model video .... nice repaint

[@vitoscaletta3886]

Excellent build! The colors seem a bit depressing though.

[@ricardoroberto7054]

Yes they really struggled at the end. Some were RLM 81 and 82 and some were just the one colour or even undercoat. It was basically what they could get their hands on.

[@richelias2973]

Excellent job and great video. Thanks

[@saxonian6634]

Nothing useful to add, excellent work as always; just here to feed the algorithm!

[@howardcobb4354]

Yep, same with me :)

[@flightis3dollars]

Very nice and lots of good tips. Thanks.

[@travisweeks7819]

Wow she looks amazing

[@goforitpainting]

Professional paint job. 👍

[@sirioruchini2151]

Bellissimo modello e utilissimo il video !!! L'ultimo mio modello è stato l'He.162 A della Dragon in 1/48 e questo è un aereo che mi piace molto. A breve potrei prendere anch'io il Tamiya e seguire il esempio. E' un vero piacere seguire i tuoi video 😃👍

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Very cool, excellent job 👍👍🤙🏻

[@stephenbridges2791]

Nice job.

[@cemaa4338]

Elinize kolunuza sağlık üstat. Bu modeli hatırlayamadım. Videolarınızın Çoğunu arşivlemiş olmama rağmen arşivimde de yokmuş. Seyrettiğime sevindim. Güzel ve verimli bir model olmuş. Bir taraftan da bu yazdıklarım etkileşim oluyor. KZbin un kafası bu kadar basıyor. Bu alttaki yorum sayısını videonun başarısı sanıyor. Geçen TouTube algoritması hakkında ufak bir şeyler gördüm, KZbin'un önerileri genelde basma kalıp. Pek yararlı olamıyor. Genelde abuk sabuk şeyleri üstün körü inceleyen, saçma sapan şeyler yapan (stada çıplak nasıl gidim, en güzel ayakkabı, anneme hamileyim şakası yaptım vs) gibi şeyleri baz alıyor. Bu yüzden gerçekten üretim yapan, bir şeyler yaratan YARARLI kanallar güme gidiyor. Sizin iş pek müzik ve konuşma gerektirmediğinden genelde ses kapatılabiliyor (benim gibi işyerinde çaktırmadan izleyenler gibi). onu KZbin arkaplan müzik kötü bilmem ne gibi algılıyor. Uzun videolar bir kaç günde parça parça izlenebiliyor. Yada daha sonra dönülüp sadece gözden kaçırdığı bir yeri tekrar izleyenleri anlıyamıyor. Senelerdir, Bir çok KZbin modelcisi takip ediyorum. Emin olun en iyi modelcilerden birisiniz. Sorun sizde değil KZbin da... Sırf izleyici sayınız artsın diye VPN ile tekrar tekrar izliyorum :)

[@Scaleaton]

Desteğiniz için çok teşekkürler Cem Bey! İnanın beğeni ve yorum maddi destek kadar çok kıymetli. KZbin bu aralar bir şeyler deniyor onu belirtmedim zira emin değilim. Tüm kanalların ve hatta takip ettiğim farklı konularda içerik üreten kanalların da izlenmeleri dramatik şekilde düştü. Yüzlerce dolarlık malzeme harcanarak, 8-10 haftalık bir emeğin sonucu ortaya çıkan ve sadece 130bin izlenen model videolarını gördükçe içim acıyor doğrusu. Ki geçen sene milyon izleniyordu bunlar. Ben kitleden ve izlenme sayısından mutluydum son 5 ay öncesine kadar. Dediğim gibi içerikle veya kitleyle bir ilgisi yok. KZbin bir şeyler deniyor onu çözemedim. Kafayı Shorts olup TikTok'la rekabete taktı sanıyorum. Zira yeni bir özellik eklendi. Bununla videolarımızın Shorts üretecileri tarafından yağmalanmasına, klip yapılmasına izin veriyoruz ve bu default seçili geliyor, ben kaldırıyorum. Bunu kaldırdığım hiç bir videoyu eskisi gibi izletmiyor. Neyse bakalım, yine ne varsa uçak camiasında var. Oralardan ufak ufak devam ederiz, severim mütevazi işleri zaten. Organik olarak büyümeye devam :) Tekrar çok teşekkür ederim her şey için. Ha bu arada videonun orijinali izlenecek gibi değildi o yüzden kanaldan kaldırmıştım. İki video toplamda 60 dakika gibi bir şeydi ve uzun uzun yazılar, grafiklerle izlenmesi imkansıza yakındı.

[@cemaa4338]

@@Scaleaton siz yılmadan devam edin hocam. Bir videonuzda amaç yolun sonuna ulaşmak değil, yolculuktan keyif almak gibi bir şey kullanmıştınız. Çok hoşuma gitmişti... Arada kullanıyorum. Siz keyifle maket yapın hocam, biz de keyifle izleriz
