Hello, guys. This is a new testing video. What do you think about it? I changed camera position so you will see a painting from the first person view and of course background. Was blue background better? Also, I put on screen product which I use. I will be glad if you will write me your opinions. I am open to suggestions and new ideas.

[@felix7115]

It's a really good format and you should do more videos in the same style!

[@idaemonplasmo]

Thanks for your feedback.

[@sabbathian]

looks great, all the details are clearly visible. Keep it up;)

[@Simonize41]

PLASMO - plastic models Really enjoyed the video. I look forward to more.👍🏻

[@jambock1188]

it is perfect

[@parascalemodels]

You just helped raise the bar for a whole lot of modellers out there David. Great instructional vid!

[@prabeshlamichhane1009]

This is the new reference now.

[@jeffreyross-zb8cz]

Im 51 and stiĺl learn so much watching you PLASMO

[@hreple]

You have the skills to make it look easy David - and that's what keeps me drawn to your videos. It inspires me to keep working on my own models and skills. I'm really greatfull for you taking the time to teach us your skills - and my 109 eduard build is now on its way thanks to you.

[@curtusua]

Thank you so much for your terrific video tutorials! As a returning, older modeler I find your videos as a great inspiration to get back into the hobby.

[@normansmith8184]

My opinion was another masterclass sir. Everything about the video was superb. Congratulations and respect from England.

[@harryhathaway1086]

I know this videos kind of old but I want to thank the person who made this video I appreciate the great references I will get when I tried to build the cockpit on my 1/48 scale Revell Stuka I bought the cockpit upgrade kit and was lost when it came to bending certain photo etch metal Parts but you gave me some insight I appreciate that you are a Supreme artist. I wish I could be a quarter as good as you.

[@Dan-tv1sm]

Thank you for posting. It's inspiring to watch and to try the techniques (fingers crossed).

[@cafebespoke]

Your videos are excellent and this new cockpit one is really great. Your explanations are really clear and I like how you tell us what paints, brushes and other products you use.

[@AndysHobbyHeadquarters]

Very nice video.

[@ParlaneArtShed]

Top notch. I like the new format. Nice to see different brands used as well in your videos. I like how you use new processes and materials to achieve great results. Good to see when certain attempts fail (as in the diorama sand tutorial).

[@wolfpack4694]

Very nice David. U have a good, steady hand, and a keen eye! Always a pleasure to watch. I do like the lighting and closeups you employed in this video.

[@CaptainMurder62]

Always a joy to watch THE Master at work. Thank you very much for sharing and the immense motivation your Videos bring. Please NEVER stop. All the best to you. CM.

[@juanrios9522]

you are a great teacher and a master modeler..!! Im learning so much from your builds....thank you!

[@brettbricker1810]

Extremely helpful! I am mainly an armor builder but your videos have made me want to try aircraft. I bought this exact kit to try out soon and this video has come just in time. Thank you as always for providing this extremely valuable content. It gives me the knowledge and confidence to attempt subjects that intimidate me as a modeler.

[@robertvoss6145]

a great demonstration , everything showed up very well and the camera angle was good. I look forward to seeing the next one . well done

[@BoJack_HorseFly85]

Amazing result! My first Eduard 1/48 BF-109 is coming my way next week (Wilde Sau dual combo) and definitly inspired by your result!

[@williamfotiou7577]

Fantastic work. Your skill is amazing.

[@dickgoldsberry124]

Great video. Always can learn new tricks & procedures.

[@mirrorblue100]

Great job and I like the soothing music - thanks.

[@arikcarmi]

looked professional and the new way of camera positioning was very helpful, your a pro now 👍

[@idaemonplasmo]

Great, I am glad you like it.

[@SuperLpark]

Who are the 18 people that gave this a thumbs down? It's incredible work and very educational

[@cameronravenhill3169]

I made an old Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk.2 and used some of the techniques you used in the FW190 cockpit video didn't work quite as well but I was pleased with it will definitely be using some new techniques from this video, thanks!!

[@38mishalkin]

Очередной шедевральный мессер выйдет!

[@Gastello100]

This camera position I like much more. Everything is cool as always!

[@vicparratt7523]

What a pleasure to watch a tutorial that is so clear, concise and informative. Keep up the excellent work.

[@jjab99]

Very nice results and techniques. Many thanks for sharing this with us, it was both interesting and very useful. Have fun, Joe

[@martindaredare]

great video , the camera angles are excellent , keep up the good work it is much appreciated

[@ватноещщастье]

Это шедевр, я такого качества исполнения никогда не видел!

[@rudolfmalyjurek2178]

moc pěkná práce,bude to dlouho trvat než se to taky naučím.Opravdu pěkné

[@idaemonplasmo]

Teď jsem se chvíli bavil s Michalem Dostálem a ten se naučil barvit na profi úrovni za pouhé 4 roky. Kam se na něho hrabu. Tady je jeho FB stránka facebook.com/Michal.Dostal.Scale.Models/

[@nautilius87]

Jestes dla mnie najlepszym modelarzem na KZbin.

[@tdjramsey]

Very nice and interesting techniques. This will definitely be useful, thanks for another great video!

[@roberto16181]

Excelente video! . Gracias David justo ahora tengo 2 Emil y ya se que técnicas podría ocupar en la tina.

[@truthhurts9241]

Thank you Sir, lovely as always. Silly question time, anyone know what that large pipe thing on the right side of the cockpit (see 6m 30s ish) is for. Seems that Messerschmidt forgot about it until the last moment and added it as an afterthought. Good job the canopy opens the other way.

[@pauljames5379]

Thank you for your presentation- very useful. Subbed!

[@markbaigent8373]

You do amazing work

[@christophermifsud9543]

Excellent, thank you for sharing so much skill and knowledge with us :)

[@nodnodnod2063]

Like always a very good video, the POV is a great idea imho. Keep up the good work!

[@zlajo1964]

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

[@fw190ddora]

Hi it's very intereting your video, i have a question what is the white cup that you use?

[@ronzufelt1428]

Great video. Everything was awesome.

[@rurushu8094]

Great upgrade for the original!

[@tomasperezluis4606]

Hi!! Good job!! With what do you rinse the inside of the cockpit? Do you use RLM 75 just that color? Or do you mix it with another lighter color? Greetings!!

[@kevbee8325]

RLM 66 is used after the silver base, then RLM 75 (or alternatively a few drops of white paint) for the highlights, after the varnish AK Interactive Paneliner Wash was used to define the details.

[@mariowolf6292]

Hey David .Thats an great Video.

[@cg462]

Nice work. I wish Eduard could get their instruments up to Waldron model products standards

[@10Ronaldinho80best]

Like always fantastic!Thank you for your guides!

[@marceloalejandro1190]

hola , me podrias decir que pegamento usas para los fotograbados ? ( cinturones de seguridad) Hi, can you tell me what glue do you use for photoengravings? ( seatbelts)

[@phayzyre1052]

Thank you David!! You sir are a master and your videos are a big help! :)

[@Simonize41]

Excellent David.👍🏻

[@vladancovic9998]

Hi David,an nother great video. New format is good, newer the less there ok nothing wrong with old one. Please keep the blue background. You have to do "mottling" technick with this project. Thak you for your time to put this videos for us.

[@vladancovic9998]

pardon: "technique".

[@janbuzrla9314]

Skvělé. Co dokážeš s barvami je fantastické, musím to podle tvých rad vyzkoušet. Dělám sice RC modely, ale i tam se nějaká ta patina hodí :-)

[@idaemonplasmo]

Dík, já rc modely obdivuji. Mám je rc plachťáka z polystyrenu, ale na balsu a hvězdicový motor to nemá. Třeba tady ten Dauntless je ohromný. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iH22dIOge7WYa6s

[@janbuzrla9314]

Ten je fakt super. Před pár lety jsme měli u nás na letišti (u F-M) ještě o kousek většího a ten měl i hvězdicový motor...ani nevím, kde nakonec skončil. Já se teď babrám s kokpitem DH-82 (1:3,3) a po nastříkání zelenou to vypadá strašně uměle....tak vyzkouším některé techniky, co jsem viděl v tvých videích (washe a oděrky), snad to moc nezmrším :-) Takže za mě - velké díky za tvoje videa.

[@idaemonplasmo]

F-M? Tak to tam docela dobře znám. Občas chodím na sraz obřích modelů na Bahně a sám jsem lítal s Citabriou na Bašce. Teď chodím lítat na pole do Sviadnova.

[@janbuzrla9314]

Tak to je dobrý, jak je svět malý :-) Na těch obrech jsem jeden z pořadatelů a na letiště v Bašce se často zastavuju na pokec....zřejmě jsme se už potkali :-)

[@clubtcb]

Interesting stuff. Question: Is it possible to make decent washes out of artistic oil paints ?

[@johncroucher6053]

Fantastic as usual David - apprecaite your video's very much :)

[@richardnevermore8536]

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

[@clydelourensz4077]

Just purchased the Tamiya Bf 109 G-6. Your Eduard build has certainly provided some excellent tips. Can I ask, what size is the needle you are using in your H&S Infinity?

[@brucethemodelnoob]

I’m going to beguiling the 1/32 Eduard BF-109 E7 Trop, and the instructions don’t show the yellow line you show on the right side of the cockpit (fuel line?). Was that not part of the E7? Beautiful work BTW!

[@hameleonD]

awesome! and any modification of the aircraft, and some firms can provide a link?

[@rlabiche]

great work will you be finishing the model as learning video

[@elennapointer701]

What are the painting instructions like in Eduard kits? All your builds are highly detailed. Is that from your own knowledge of cockpit layouts, or do the instructions take you through it?

[@BenjWarrant]

When I just tried the technique of brushing off the panel line wash with a cotton bud, all I got was bits of white cotton all over the cockpit. What did I do wrong?

[@usmc1127]

What brand/type of tool are you using at 0:14 seconds...? And where (website) can I purchase one? Thanks.

[@rifledude303]

Great video, especially like including the PSI and dilution state for airbrushing... One question; do you dillute Mr Super Clear III or use neat when airbrushing varnish? it always seems too thick for my airbrush but thinners don't seem to react well with it. Thanks!

[@idaemonplasmo]

Yes I use mr color leveling thinner. Radio 1:1 or 1:2 always more thinner.

[@cyberdami]

Really enjoying your videos! Can you help me with a query please? I have an old assembled 1:32 Revell Tomcat that I wish to freshen up with new paint scheme and markings, can you recommend something to remove the old paint, decals and satin varnish finish without damaging the model? Thanks in advance... keep up the good work ;)

[@idaemonplasmo]

You can use sodium hydroxide or stripping agent but be very careful with chemicals. Goggles and rubber gloves are basic. images.mysafetysign.com/img/lg/S/wear-goggles-danger-sign-s-2103.png Maybe will work something like that but it is a metal model. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHa7qYR6rKxnfq8

[@valkyrie013]

If your in the US, for acrylic paint, Formula 409 cleaner works well. for other paints use Easy Off Oven cleaner, just spray on, and leave to for for a couple of hours, then use an old toothbrush to scrub the old paint off, repeat if necessary. ( WARNING: Fumes are very bad, use outside or well ventilated area, or you'll be coughing, And use Gloves!) for small trouble spots just use some paint thinner and a cotton swab. Hope this helps!

[@cyberdami]

Thanks so much valkyrie013... It's enamel paint and satin sheen varnish that I want to completely remove without harming the plastic kit. I have tried Mr Muscle oven cleaner but it was no good.. I'm in the UK ;)

[@P-I-T-F-A]

Hello, I was wondering where you get your information about painting the instruments and on the sides? I've started building the ICM 109F-4, but the instructions don't mention much information. Thx for the help.

[@7Markandrews]

great tutorial David. nice & steady away with relevant information on which paint etc. the smallest brush I can find is A 0000 but those look even thinner. can you tell me the size and brand please. think I need a few for my detail work

[@idaemonplasmo]

thanks, I used Tamiya High Finish Pointed Brush Small www.jshobby.net/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1250

[@honzaskaryd6488]

I will be building G-6 version in slovak markings so this is really helpfull :) Dobrá práce jako vždycky, smekám :D

[@ADRIAAN1007]

Hello, great work on the cockpit!! Can you post a link to the micro drill bits that you used? I have had a lot of trouble finding a good set they always seam to be ground improperly.

[@idaemonplasmo]

I have new ones from ebay. The set from 0,1 to 1mm is good. www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=micro+dtill+bits&_sacat=0

[@БорисСергеевич-м7й]

👍 very good, очень понравилось

[@jambock1188]

Hello, what is the pressure on the airbrush you use to apply the super clear III? The dilution with Mr leveling thinner is 1: 1 even?

[@vonSchwarzschild]

You are a genius!

[@AllWayzSomethin]

I always enjoy your videos. What kind of airbrush do you use?

[@vivatoni3516]

simply beautiful

[@scottrice3549]

thanks for this video always very helpful but what is that on the right side of the cockpit. am i to assume that it is a fuel line it just appears out of no where than u paint yellow. is that a piece clear of clear spru that you streched and bent to fit??????????

[@idaemonplasmo]

The whole part is made of transparent plastic, so it was quite easy.

[@scottrice3549]

thank you i will try it bf 109 build

[@valkyrie013]

Found you a few months ago, excellent stuff! Learned alot! Have a request, when you show your paints, for example Tamiya, can you show the mix ratios? Say like this XF-2:1 and XF26:2, that shows 1 drop XF-2 to 2 drops XF-26. You show your combinations, but not the amounts of each paint, Thanks!!

[@idaemonplasmo]

I would like to but I mix my paints just by feel and I do not have any idea what is final ration. It is nice because two same kits will never be same. My approach is that I have basic shade and I add one drop another color. Hmm, it is not still good so I will add another one. I do this procedure again and again until I am not satisfied with final shade. Drops are never same.

[@STEAMBOLTANNIE]

Beautiful job..it is a shame that after all that work and effort that once the fuselage is put together you cant see most of that beautiful work. I have always said that half the fuselage should be clear plastic to show off the detail of the cockpit,and the interior of the plane like the bulkheads, wiring.tables,benches...etc

[@tomasperezluis4606]

Good job!!

[@pauly7218]

How are you keeping your parts from sticking to your tweezers when using super glue??? LOL

[@philtherhythm]

David, great guide. Will you show us your workstation sometime? :)

[@vladancovic9998]

Qustion, is't any difference between vallejo and AK/MENG thinner?? And if it's what is it by your opinion.

[@idaemonplasmo]

I think many products are same just with a different sticker. Vallejo and AK cooperate together so it will be same too.

[@allynwoodmodelling]

I hate you I hate you I hate you, you make it look so easy, No seriously, a master craftsmen, great video, great tips, like the background, the music mix as a background is excellent what is it?. Envious of your skill level....... Cheers Allan

[@Percivalcl]

Hi David Great video!! I notice on your videos that you don't prime before painting. How do you avoid peeling off the paint when removing masking tapes? I Really want to know, some time this will ruin my entire work on a model. Great thanks for your time again

[@idaemonplasmo]

You must clean model before painting in soapy water or industrial alcohol. You just use good colors. The most durable are Mr. Color C or Tamiya with leveling thinner.

[@Percivalcl]

Thank you David

[@badoo4236]

Hello plasmo from new York. Great video. Just one question. When applying pigment. Do you apply a clear coat after putting it on? You are awesome. thx

[@idaemonplasmo]

Hello, No, I let them without fixing, but you can use flat or semi-gloss varnish. You can also use clear varnish, however, final varnish should be matt.

[@badoo4236]

PLASMO - plastic models Thank you so much David.

[@janlunacek3119]

Mas to dost hezky je to jak doopravdovy. Skusil bys udelat nejake video v cestine ???

[@idaemonplasmo]

To už jsem zkoušel jak jsem začínal a pak mi psali jestli bych mohl dělat videa v angličtině. Tak jsem souhlasil. Aspoň ty cz titulky bych tam mohl dávat, ale jsem strašně lenivý. Moc mě nebaví to časovat. Budu si muset dát novoroční předsevzetí, že než nahraji video, tak musím tam dát titulky. Moc vás není z ČR kdo to sleduje a spíše bych byl pro, udělat nějaký workshop. Tam pak probrat nějaké techniky a postupy. Vy by jste se ptali a bylo by to mnohem užitečnější než videa. Ty videa zaberou strašně hodně času. Než se to natočí sestříhá atd.

[@emperornazuz1205]

How did you get the masking tape fit so good ?

[@wschargel]

I'm following essentially the same steps on a BF 109 that I'm building. Quick question, do you shoot Super Clear straight or do you thin it?

[@BunnyUK]

I really like this video!

[@ErebosGR]

Could you please make a video about the different glues you use and why?

[@idaemonplasmo]

Yes, I can but it will be very short. I use only three types of glue. Revell contacta, Mr color or Tamiya super thin and super glue.

[@ErebosGR]

I was just wondering how do you decide which one to use in each situation.

[@JuandeHaro]

where do you buy those small cups please?

[@juliohernandez6856]

fantastic video!

[@HELL77]

good video , brother, thanks a lot.

[@letsgoBrandon204]

If the acrylic comes off easily, is the silver paint not acrylic?

[@idaemonplasmo]

I think that mr color 8 is lacquer based color and this silver is terribly greasy.

[@Miguel-re2hv]

Very good format, but I'd rather like subtitles in English and you speaking your own language...thank you for sharing, you are a Master

[@Azimuth8687]

Thanks for the tutorial, as helpful as ever. One thing i find annoying and unnecessary is the music. It really is offputting.

[@kalevi5814]

Like you don't know how to turn your volume down?

[@abbygale4544]

That was GREAT!!!! Thank you...

[@Shreds87]

What's your impression on the AK paints David?

[@idaemonplasmo]

I do not know yet. It was just my first try so I will know more after painting wings.

[@zeitdokumentator]

Nice Work !

[@pietrodeluca8382]

have you ever got in trouble with copyright showing products or brands? I' d like making hobby modeling videos but i' m not sure if show them or not.

[@sebol931]

because he does a great job and promotes the brands they will most likely contact him and give him free products to make more videos

[@jamesdivall64]

Awesome! Excellent job Thank you :-)

[@davidmalagueno7567]

Great job, as always!!! I hope have 1/10 of your skills someday :P . Greetings from Argentina!

[@idaemonplasmo]

This tutorial has a basic level so with this kit you can reach same or better result.

[@davidmalagueno7567]

I´m a beginner on this hobby. Actually I´m painting my first model this week (OA-4M) and I´m fighting whit enamel paints, jaja. Thats is the reason of my commentary, so I have a lot to learn from you. Thanks a lot for your tutorials, Every day I learn a bit more!

[@nonthaburibear2201]

Bellisima..Thanks for sharing
