I love Tamiya. I think he's the ultimate modeler. Watching this video made me dream of continuing to challenge myself with master craftsmanship.

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your feedback. That means a lot… I’m also trying to challenge myself.modeling is so fun 😊

[@artisticgoose2609]

Honestly this is one of the best Tamiya kits I've ever seen. The engineering is perfect! and the model looks amazing!

[@platoki]

Thank you for your feedback! 100% agreed. Tamiya kit is more than amazing. And this kit is one of the best.

[@Paul_Allaker8450]

A wonderfully skilled build, a lot of modellers with this level of talent go on to add weathering and chipping, which, whilst realistic I think sometimes ruins the overall look of the model, it's refreshing to see a finished kit just clean and in the colour scheme it would have left the factory. A top job sir. 🫡

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your comment. Yes weathering to 5th generation air craft is kind of dilemma. Still trying to find out what is the best for the model…

[@mohammedalmukhtar5428]

Very true…weathering sometimes ruins the build and looks way too much exaggerated!

[@devonthomson7069]

After watching your video, all I can say is wow. Great job with a lot of amazing details. Thanks for sharing and the inspiration.

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your comment and compliment. That means a lot to me and motivated me much to create another video, thanks.

[@HammerRocks]

Good work. Though I noticed some irregularities of your decals. The tail says "HMS Queen Elizabeth". Yet, it as US Markings. Not the British Marines roundel. I didn't realise there are US Marines F-35s operating with the British Royal Navy.

[@platoki]

Thank you for your comment. Yes it is cross deck operations in HMS Queen Elizabeth in November 2021. Actually I did not know neither until one of the viewers pointed and i looked up.

[@EvaFangoria]

Great build. The masking really paid off as the thin lines with that color way look crisp and tidy. And I haven't built a plane yet, but this build and the immense detail of this kit may have sold me on giving this a try. Tamiya engineering as well. No fuss. I'm hoping to see a video soon that's sponsored by Tamiya. 😊 You create nice builds, and I hope others also appreciate the tips and explanation of work along the way. It's a nice touch.

[@platoki]

Thanks a lot. Yes I wish Tamiya sponsor me😁but without it, it is worth building it. That’s great engineering, the spirit of Tamiya…

I am in love with the F35 and this kit so beautiful. Tamiya sure did knock it out of the park when they release this. I got the 1/72 F35A from Hasagawa and I can't wait to build mine. I have like, comment, and sub your channel!

[@platoki]

Thank you very much. That means a lot to me. I used to be big fun of F15but once I saw this F35 real and came to know many features of 5th generation fighter jet, I am now big fun of F35👍

[@f.b.l.9813]

wish Bandai would make almost color accurate military model kits of stuff like these, F-35, Abrams etc. like they already make 100% color accurate gundam model kits, i imagine military model kits would be harder to make color accurate right out of the box so just having the big colors right is enough for me, since these kinds of glued and painted model kits are beyond my skill and patience.

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your comment. Duplicating the actual fuslage color is one for the highlight for modeling. Some of the kit has originally colored parts on it but you are right, most of the colors are not accurate.

Built the 1/48th Tamiya F-35A which is the Air Force version. Great kit when it comes to fit, the only bad thing is the molded on RAM tape that should have been flat not raised and it ruins the realistic look it otherwise would have had. You can do better Tamiya

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your comment! Agreed that Tamiya is one of the best kit for me. I’m always impressed by its quality. Thanks also for the RAM information. I built F35A too, and good to know.

[@cristianopersi7953]

Nice work, but I have never seen an open bomb bay while the pilot was sitting in the cockpit.

[@platoki]

Thank you so much for your comment and feedback. Yes you are right on vertical landing configulation, the weapon bay should be half open to make air flow stable. And it’s too heavy to land vertically with bombs on bay and even half fuel should not be left. I built in with bay full open and bombs inside for the sake of modeling. Thank you for your feedback anyway!!

[@wurkinaround]

This is very old school modelling, no pre or post shading, no weathering, painting directly on sprues, weird semi gloss finish, exactly like hasegawa catalog models back in the nineties. You should check out Plasmo or Night Shift they're true masters at modern modelling.

[@platoki]

Thank you for your feedback. Weathering on 4th generation fighter jet is pretty much dilemma.

Nice job! Question: do you apply The pannel line directly over The acrylic paint or do you Put some clear coat between them?

[@platoki]

Thank you for your comment and question! I understand that panel line is RAM paint after main fuselage paint. I did apply clear vernish coat and let them dry for 24 hours because applying masking tape may damage the paint. I hope that answers your question. Please let me know if you have further questions!

Can I know what kind of mat you are using for the table? Because it looks so cleaner than the cutting mat for the video

Sure! That is not cutting board. I just use normal poster board (like for elementary students) which is available at Walmart, Target or Michael’s. That brand is “heavyweights poster board Pen+Gear”.

@vladimirlovato4192 it is a little rough operation but this Gollira glue does not harm paint. At least, Tamiya acrylic or AK color.
