Beautiful job as always! These videos are an example of how quick-cut, wordless, instructional presentations can teach so much. I get tired of wordy, rambling instructors who um and ah their way through long vids that, at best, give us no better instructions and examples in an hour than ScaleModelAircraft provides wordlessly in under 20 minutes! Even a beginner with the right tools and a few of these videos under their belt ought to be able to come up with very presentable work. Well done all around!

[@AltCtrlFreak]

The last couple of years Academy has produced some fantastic kits, simple to build, great decals.

[@KJ-kn8pg]

Yeah best 72 scale jet range out there!

[@dae8053]

I am 47 years old I have been doing modeling on and of trough out my life. I remember the 1970’s kits. The aircraft painted as display was not even close to today’s modeling. I guess now we have better technology or something..I don’t know. But this model is for display somewhere other than inside your house, maybe like your local library war section book aisle.I really don’t know. All I know it’s a wonderful piece of art.

[@pisstachio918]

you helped me build my firat plane, thanks a lot dusan

[@joseluiscastanorestrepo]

Great work, i just got that plane for christmas.

[@MrGoldarr]

Modeling has come a long long way since I build models in the early eighties as a kid. I remember seeing the finished model pictures on the kit box and telling myself that I wish I could one day build a perfect model like the one they showed in the model kit box. Now that I see how awesome and realistic the models are assembled, the pictures on the old model kits look unrealistic and tacky.

[@piloto5248]

Job well done just buy this one yesterday for a really cheap price......

[@quattobeast]

MIne just came in the mail yesterday . I am happy to see that the plane looks really great when finished.

[@jimi71smw]

i hope the decals for this kit work better than the ones for the F/A-18 because they resisted all attempts to stick to the model, i used a gloss coat actually i coated the kit twice with gloss and used Micro Sol & Set Solutions and still they peeled off, even after i gave them two coats of flat clear from a spray can!

[@jerimiahmcmahon2017]

only in dreams have I seen a model fit together so good

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Very good fit. All the best! Dusan.

[@tonyperez4791]

Great build ! Just got a couple of this kit and now you gave me the inspiration to build ! Hope you and your family are well ! Take care, Tony

[@kaxtorplose]

So this is how the robots take over. Starting with the teeth. I can't wait until they get to the larynx!

[@LodniKranazon]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing - I recently picked up the 'ShowTime 100' boxing of this kit! I can hardly wait to get started!

[@michaelharris9347]

Really enjoyed the video and you made a wonderful job of the kit, thanks for the inspiration Mike Harris

[@wakemanedwards3450]

Dusan, 1/72 scale kits usually have a hard time really delivering on detail....mot so on this kit, it beautiful !! In fact all of the recent 1/48 & 1/72 kits recently released by Academy have in fact changed my mind on that. As I've witnessed over the last 3 years your excellent skills help tremendously, however, as I said, these kits look like from a standpoint of design, high attention to detail along with what appears to be a fit like that of Bandai's snap kits which any modeler would appreciate ! Thanks for sharing and all the very best to you, Wakeman

[@chungthuu3885]

Your video is my favourite chanel

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

[@joshuathompson6082]

I've been watching these vids for the past week. I've always wanted to get into this hobby, but not confident enough in my detail skills to do it and equipments costs hurt lol. Great channel and top-notch work!

[@rickerson5787]

just get a hobby knife and a airfix starter set and you should be good. if you're starting the model doesn't need to be good.

[@AlexModeling]

Amazing work as always Dusan!

[@AquaFish_stachooo]

I love your models! Good job! :)

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks! All the best! Dusan.

[@uncletatscreativeshack1702]

Awesome Job!!! I just bought this kit, but I think mine is an older issue as the parts don’t break down the same way, I.e. no one piece fuselage, limited engine and intake details and only decals for one aircraft.

[@heliogiorgiorigarcia]

Holly shit kkkkkk beautiful job... astonishing kit!!!!👌👌👌👌

[@tombombadil2793]

Superb ☺

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks Tom! All the best! Dusan.

[@simonediottavio5971]

my compliments...!!

[@marcosliberaldealmeida5058]

perfect!!

[@allgood6760]

Awesome 👍

[@timothybooker1402]

Dusan I would like to see you assemble the B-36 Peacemaker!

[@gianluigimarino8264]

Great!

[@smokingspitfire1197]

fuselage in one peice!!! need this kit haha

[@ashby1672]

Great job! Could u show us how you applied decals on misslies as well?

[@mindkiller76]

Do a showcase of your collection. Should be very interesting.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Maby :-) Thank You! All the best! Dusan.

[@gcntech9071]

Great kit but the canopy in one piece? Why not another in 4 for an open version?

[@CoondawgPD]

Crazy good skills

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks!! All the best! Dusan.

[@user-bk4si3gs2r]

Wow

[@KJ-kn8pg]

Hey Dusan are you interested in building an F-8 crusader from academy in 1/72 scale? The detail is wonderful and the aircraft is underrated and shadowed by th f-4 phantom. Great aircraft and you would make it great too!

[@robertowert8530]

If you want to make diorama, i think this Fantom you could use to Vietnam diorama.

[@dorukakdoganli]

beautiful

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thank You Doruk! All the best! Dusan.

[@donniegreenway8401]

you should build the new tamiya f14 kit with the same squadron would be a nice pair of jets from different eras

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

I don´t have the new F-14 kit, maby I will buy that kit, I dont know. All the best! Dusan.

[@donniegreenway8401]

Tamiya makes it it just came out its about $100 but it's a nice kit

[@rurushu8094]

Donnie Greenway Shii.. my friend has the hasegawa one for only 15-20 dollars

[@Manaritzis88]

Good one

[@criscoulter4405]

Great build, I'm so slow building, that would take me 40-60 hrs.

[@AvengerII]

USS Roosevelt? That's a ship that hasn't existed for close to 40 years now. It was the second Midway Class aircraft carrier, the first unit of the three to be scrapped (1980). It was scrapped first because it didn't undergo the comprehensive rebuild and refit that its sister ship, USS Midway, did so consequently the Roosevelt was in VERY poor condition by the mid-1970s and the US Navy decided to retire it early after conducting experiments with Harriers (AV-8A model) in 1977(?). The last Phantom assignment aboard that ship was 1970-1975, this very squadron depicted in the model. They were flying F-4N's (upgraded B-model rebuilds) at the end before the transitioned to the F-14 in 1976. Afterwards, VF-84 transferred to the Nimitz in 1977. In 1979, VF-84 participated in the filming of the movie, "The Final Countdown," which was the motion picture debut of the F-14 Tomcat, WELL before "Top Gun" (1986).

[@MrKrc2002]

outstanding

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thank You! All the best! Dusan.

[@vladimirprivetov998]

I’ve never heard of this brand before. Maybe this is a good time to give it a try.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

There are many great kits from Academy, I can recommend this kits. 1/72nd scale. PBY Catalina, F-8 Crusader, SB2C-4 Helldiver, F-18C/D, F-22, F-35A, F-4... New tool FA-18F... All the best! Dusan.

[@slapstixs4585]

Love your video and build.... but one thing is driving me crazy ..... What is the first music title??? please lets us know :)

[@Mors_Inimicis]

Great build , I love your technique. Any reason for not painting the cockpit interior?

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks! Please look closer, the cockpit is painted (FS36231/Black,D.Gray, green etc...) All the best! Dusan.

[@brucepechtel1947]

As always great work Dusan. I do have a question though, what is the sticky stuff you use to hold some of your pieces while you spray them?

[@philtherhythm]

Great video, nice editing, and of course.. excellent build! Do you have a fan page or something? Facebook...anything?

[@Rorynes]

Phabulus!

[@MartinLovato10]

B-25 for the next!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks for the comment! All the best! Dusan.

[@ponymoore6140]

Great build and amazing work, but I would much rather hear you talk and explain your work

[@gabrielomar1970]

Dusan....great works :-)!!! One question.....What pressure use in the airbrush???? Great Video...

[@aimansyarizuan7139]

Is there a different effect when spray a semi-gloss clear before the decal ?

[@user-bk4si3gs2r]

Good good good

[@modelcitizen6759]

Dusan I had the urge to view this again as I have bought the kit - thanks for build. Just one question what model of Tamiya sprue cutter are you using? I bought some side cutter but they look to be of a lesser quality. Dave

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Dave, you are welcome! Thank you! I am using as my favorite Tamiya pointed side cutter (older black matt look) and regular Tamiya side cutter (chrome). But there is also a new type sharp pointed, similar to pointed sids cutter but with more pointed tip. All the best!! Dusan.

[@BennyCFD]

Brilliant......! Where did you get that nifty yellow paint bottle cap remover.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks!! From GSI creos, great stuff, You can find it on-line very cheap. Thanks for the comment! All the best! Dusan.

[@aeroair4724]

wait, so from about 15:35 and 16:34 you actually removed parts of the plane even though you glued them?

[@38mishalkin]

Урра!! Новьё!!!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thanks for the comment! All the best! Dusan.

[@JeffreyStrader]

What do you use to remove excess glue, that you applied on the outside of the seems???

[@andrewrobertson3952]

what are you using to fix up the canopy?

[@MHMajid-yi8iu]

👍

[@Mediavidero]

Dusan I have some questions: 1. The big decals: Are a some kind of trick to save the surface detail when we put the decal over it? I mean, all the rivet lines disappear, or shows like that. 2. Could yoy show (in a list) the youtube music themes that you use in each video? Thanks !!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Well, you can use solvent like Mr.Softer and Mr.Setter for decals. But for really large thin decals avoid using to much solvent. And leave the decals after the application of Mr.Softer. They can melt and conform on surface nicely so you will be able to see the rivets and panels. For thicker decals you need more persuading and repeat method. Toothpick can help. All the best! Dusan.

[@SChamberlain1978]

After watching some of your videos, I've purchased four of the Mr. Cement cement bottles. It appears to be so much cleaner than standard model glue! Can't wait to try it out. Also, does painting the entire model flat black help the panel lines "pop" out? Amazing videos and keep up the great work.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Excellent glue, fast drying time... Yes the black primer can help with weathering. Thanks! All the best! Dusan.

[@geraldsobel3470]

Would have been my airplane. Damn even if I'd have had to buy a farm in NV to fly in one. My housemate did.

[@bob7608]

Also what is the polish stuff you used on the canopy? I’ve used future/pledge but that stuff looks great!

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Polishing compound (use fine or extra fina) All the best! Dusan.

[@brianc1701]

Outstanding job, Dusan! I was wondering how the Academy kit would look with the new engineering and press fit molding. Can't argue with your results.

[@ScaleModelAircraft]

Thank You Brian!! Very nice kit, great tooling. All the best! Dusan.
