This just inspired me to buy one and some tools, paints etc. and get back into modelling. I’m 54 and the last time I built a model I was 16 lol. Great memories sitting at the end of the dining table doing my models as a kid:)

Dusan you make the absolute best model building videos ever. I've been modeling for over 45 years and I'm still learning from you. Thank you.

Thank you for not NOT over weathering. Too many of these videos by others have ridiculous amounts of weathering on these planes. I don't know what country you come from, but we don't keep our planes looking like they were stored in a barn.

Your models rock more than any other thing I have seen.

What I like about your presentations is the that we don't deal with ugly faces and useless talk, just action, action, action...! Stay on it...you do great work...!!

The best build videos on KZfaq!

Sir, your builds are just incredible. I cannot believe what you do are just out-of-the-box builds.

Another awesome looking model, I really am impressed with how professional, the model looks, as well as the way you have choreographed the video! Keep up the good work! Thanks

I bought F/A-18C today, it's not a double seat but thank god I love it. I watched this video to know how to create this aircraft will be my biggest masterpiece

I love this kit. I also have the "E" version and maybe i will buy the "G" version. Perfect fit and very easy to build..is the state of the art for the F/A-18 series in 1/72!

I love your clinical "clean room" approach on your builds.....=)

양덕 형들 손제주를 따라갈수가 없네... ㅁㅌ 퀄리티... 개 오졌다 인정해부러..

Wow ITS so cool 👍 fa-18f super Hornet Jolly Rogers ist my favorite plane

the way that the parts goes together is just so satisfying!

Great work, Dusan, as always.

Yet another master class in modelling, thanks for sharing.

Great work loving your videos I'm doing an academy 1/72 scale f/A -18D Hornet at the moment

Wonderful production of a great kit. I think it will help some folks get over the "Snap Kit Snub". Thanks.

Fantastic build and the model looks great. Nice to see they're showing the E and G models also. Looking forward to more build videos and getting a few of this model for my stash.

Yay! Finnish air force uses mainly f-18s and hawks! Great work!!

Beautiful! Absolutely fantastic! It straight up doesn't get any better than that.

good build, nice kit, excellent music and video. would have been better with weathering and folded wings in my opinion but still an awesome job. more 1 /72 builds please 👍🙆😀

My goodness! Superb!

Beautiful looking Hornet! Awesome job.

A great build and video, very subtle, yet fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

It's always a pleasure to watch your videos young man. You truly are a gifted modeler. Thank you for sharing!

I have made academy F-15E 1:72 scale and it was hard. Of course couldn't make well like you do.

Excellent work mate, i like your way of modelling, i like your blue cardpaper as ground, i like your smoothy background music, i like you wear gloves, so all in all your videos are very professionell and i am eager for the next model.

As always an exelent work! Love this F18!

You did an amazing job on my favorite aircraft. Could you do a 1:32 F/A-18

Vos vidéos sont particulièrement bien réaliser . c'est un plaisir de les regarder. Bravo :-)

I really like to see you in action !! This academy kit seems to be pretty good, but I did not like the canopy being in one piece. I like to make my models with the canopy open and doing a surgery does not seem to be very cool! Greetings from Brazil!!

Excellent job friend!!, congratulations and best regards from México City.

love your vids! also just found out your vid was used on the actual academy site for this f18 model kit. did you know that? haha

Masterpiece, I do admire the painting technique. I got a Sparmax TC-610H air pump. As for airbrush, I got 1 no. of Sparmax SP-20X with 0.2mm nozzle and 1 no. of Sparmax Max 3 with 0.3mm nozzle. I would like to know what is the best pressure to be set and the ratio of paint and thinner to be used for good painting result. I usually use Tamiya and Gunze acrylic paint. Thank you for your professional advise.

First timer here, I thought some people would spray the parts first (including the body) then assemble it. Or it is just people have variablw differences when assemblying model kit?

Just found this channel and loving it!

Dusan, just got released from the hospital after a 6 week stay, so nice to come hoe and see this build along with the Tamiya F-16 C FULL BUILD waiting for me to watch. As always, beautiful build my friend. I have missed watching your channel. I have the 1/32 Tamiya F-16, such a beautiful kit, can't wait to build it. Please check out the Bandai 1/144 Star Wars Millennium Falcon. Bandai did an amazing job on this kit, featuring revolutionary layering of detail that is just amazing! The design on this kit is just incredible, and if you choose it lends itself well to lighting especially if you get the Paragrafix Photo Etch set which allows you to light the cockpit in a way that you would not be able to without it. .25 fiber optics filiment and a few LED's and SMD's and it is really a beautiful kit when finished. Perfect fit on all parts. So, I wanted to request you build one of these so i can see what you do with it. By the way, you can paint the various hull panel colors or because the decals or so very good use them with a good decal setting solution to look like they were painted on. Really would appreciate you building one of those. All the best my friend, It's good to be home!

Best video and excellent choice in music

Great Work ! Happy to watch this.

mate,that's super impressive! love your channel!

what a nice model

Very nice as usual, i really notice u put alot more effort now on the filming really artistic feel to the video now ! well done!

Love your videos Dusan. Please do more :) Thank you.

Veramente uno spettacolo,complimenti.Che tipo di colori sono stati usati per l'aereo e per i lavaggi?acrilici?

All of your builds are spectacular. I have a tactical question regarding what blade you are using for seam lines? it seems to work very well.

Again a masterpiece👍

I think it needs more weathering. It looks very nice anyway

Beautiful looking kit, is Academy trying to be like Bandai with those different colored sprues? Well, excellent work as usual!

Well done. I have a question. When using the glue with the brush like that, I thought it would show later on the surface or at least make the paint not hold well. Is this not true or did I miss a step? Thanks.

Beautiful aircraft !

I just bought this kit going to be a good build

Good Job!! thank you for share your work!!! :)

You know the mottling technique? When i do that, i feel like there is not enough paint, but if i add any more, the effect isnt as much and its basically plain. Some modellers just do a plain base coat, and then more stuff to highlight and weather. Which should i do? I was thinking of doing the mottling technique for the underbelly, and just base coat with highlights for the top(doing a p-39)

More 1:72 jet builds please! 👍

Another professional beautiful video, very curious as to where the kit was purchased and how i could order it online.

I like saw your building military models and next model

Excuse me, dusan. I want to ask you something if you dont mind share a little bit of a secret how you mask your intake. Thats always been my weakness whenever i build fighter jets. Thanks in advance

The built was awesome, but why 1/72 scale? It's such a small scale man

Amazing video- I just bought the E variant and I'm confused why there's 2 sets of vertical stabilizers, is it because there's 2 choices of liveries?

I'm trying to paint, but please give me a recommendation when buying equipment.

Wow!!... Great job!

Awesome job.

if you can get it try revels 1/48 B-29

Wicked Job! What kind of wash did you use on the tempest?

Outstanding!

Totally awesome 👍.

What's the length (Cm) of the 1/48 f-16 please say new how many centimeters is the length of the 1/48 f-16. Please

the box art had yellow paint on the top of the tail fins.. otherwise it looks awesome!

What are the steps of building the super hornet?

When I paint airplane, Can I use brush???

Nice Build! Quick question: I noticed you used Mr Cement along all the seams on the bottom of the wings. Was that sanded smooth at a later step or did it clean up with the alcohol bath?

Really an awesome video, very nice.......especially for proven professionalism. I wanted to ask you, in general what is the optimum pressure to keep on the compressor for an airbrush, i use a Paasche VLS double action.....many thanks!!

Another brilliant build, thanks. Hey, was that wash acrylic or oil. It looked acrylic.

is the decal have a good quality or the same like their older type decal

Semi gloss.. Tamiya ? Mr hobby? Vallejo ?

really nice work! How did the decals worked on the model?

Great finish as usual! Looks like a lot of clever engineering has gone into this kit! How good would it be as a snap together? My son has dyspraxia and so has poor motor skills. I am looking for something that he and i can do together and these academy kits look just the thing! I think they do an F4 also?

nice model！

VF-84 markings for the F/A-18 F Super Hornet?

Great video as always :)

Which one is more professional/better the snap type or the glue type model?

Can you buil the ZIL 131 in NVA Edition please because it is very difficult and I need some help. Its a really nice model.

What semigloss coat had you used? thanks matte.

wonderful build btw, what did you use to soften the decal? I used microsol and none of the new Academy works with it...

wut wash tech you did n wut gloss did you use o this build you didn't show

Thanks for the fabulous video How do you rate the kit ? in terms of details and fitting ?

Why not the F/A - 18 super hornet pc sim OST?

한국인이신가여

Just got back into building after 30 years. Thank God I dont need to buy kits cuz I have over 300 unbuilt kits and today what the model manufacturers are asking for a plastic model kit is absolutely ridiculous ! How do they justify selling a kid made of a blob of polystyrene plastic for $50 $60 $80 ? They are only hurting themselves in the long term. How can the next younger generation of model builders afford to get into this hobby not to mention all the paints, air brushes and accessaries you still need to buy. Young kids will be turned off by the cost when they can buy the latest XBOX or Play Station game and be entertained for hours a day. Once the current model builders go away who is going to fill that spot this will be the demise of this hobby in my opinion. When an average model kit cost anywhere from $45 to a $125 that is ridiculous who can afford that ? Again, I only got back into it because I have 300 plus unbuilt models that I bought when I was working at a hobby shop 30 years ago and never had time to build them. Now I have time but if I had to buy them today...no way..... I wouldn't get back into the hobby again. Wake up hobby industry.

imagine you see this famn thing flying over you an ur like nice toy and at that momnt it shoots a damn stun dart at ya

hello, sharp looking hornet there. Can you offer me some advice, i am going to purchase an airbrush and i'm trying to decide between a sp-20x or a sp-35. I make 1/72 scale but would also like to make 1/48, which do you think would be the best compromise between the two?

Are those positive panel lines?...

How do you film it?

Hi Dušan! When you use floor cleaner as clear coat, what brand and type do you use?

What dilution you used ? TY IN ADVANCE.

Canadian Air Force Replacement of C/F-18 : - Do you think JF-17 Thunder has a Chance or Future with Norad.? Well, I know this is a long shoot, and no one in the world might agree with me except for people in Pluto or Saturn. Canadian Air Force can give the cheaper JF-17 thunder a try. Super Hornet US$98.3 million JF-17 Thunder Block 3: US$ ~32 million, F-35C: US$116M (LRIP without engine). it's one-third the cost of Both.

Why does this looks like a 1/48 scale

Just a comment for the algorithm.

great kit tho snap together.but way too exspensive.
