Phew! I was starting to think I was one of the last people alive to match colours by eye! Love your work mate.

You kind of do modeling process an injustice, sir. You make it look way too easy. Amazing job.

Nice work! I must get some of the plain Sticker sheet masking, can't wait. Thank you. Good job

I could live to a 120 and would never get anywhere near your level of expertise - this is a work of art - simple as! :)

Once again I’m blown away. Just incredible artistry. Thank you for taking the time to share these techniques!

finally by accident I saw the face of PLASMO... thank you for your videos , your builds are excellent....

Wow. 35 Years of modeling, and it takes a KZfaq video to show me the paint pouring trick with the stick. Now I’m embarrassed 😳. I just binge watch your videos, due to corona boredom. Nice, nice, nice 👍. You’re amongst the best!

David--You are a smart man and a true artist--I never would have thought to do an optical illusion like that.

Now that's clever. Thanks for sharing!

Another excellent video, David. Thanks!

Outstanding! I truly love watching your work. As always, thank you for sharing. Steve

Just outstanding fantastic detail OMG

Your technique is fantastic. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Once again a piece of art!!! Thank you for sharing your technique...

Great tutorial. Even after 56 years of model building I can learn new tricks. What a beautiful hobby we have🖒

Your an amazing artist. I love watching and learning from you.

Outstanding David. You're an inspiration! I LOVE the music in your videos as well. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing David! Although fabric imitation is not something completely new, it always nice to see technique "in action". About coping "crosses". I also prefer to paint those for many reasons (including shading like you did). I just make a copy of decal sheet on copy machine first and cut masks on the copied paper, not on decals directly. And before I apply mask on surface, I put cut cross on the wing. I use it as a guide to help myself apply mask accurately. Then remove cross... And I love the idea of imitating wing transparency and how you imitate this by painting cross and letters on the bottom side of the wing. And it would make it even more realistic to paint cross and letters with blurred, boarder. All the best to you from Riga.

Big thanks David for this technic

Great to see mixing paints by eye instead of relying on charts/percentages, David. Great video - the translucency of your wings is amazing!

Wow this is really great. I never knew how to replicate the fabric effect. Thank you!

Another fantastic video!

Amazing work. Looks like I have something to try now.

Going to try this on my next WWI biplane build. Thank you for the tip David. This technique certainly helps bring the model to life. 😊

WOW YOU ALWAYS THE BEST OF YOUR PROJECT...You are my mentor for that...

Amazing work just wunderful, keep up your great modling

Quite simply stunning work....

Perfect, I was going to ask you for a video on how you imitated the wing fabric. I noticed on your previous video that the crosses seemed to be visible 'through' the semi-transparent wings, although I was sure that it was one of your amazing tricks. Now I'll find out! Love your videos! :-)

Very nice effect! Thank you David.

Another awesome technique! Thank you for sharing!

Magnificent tutorial. Relaxing to watch with appropriate music. Thank you

Very nicely done David!

Beautiful work, every time a new original method👍🏻

As ever David, your skill in modelling is matched by your ability to demonstrate clearly. Thank you!

I think this is the best model you have shown us....wonderful work.

Thanks so much for posting your work, the level of skill and attention to detail is astounding. I've learned many useful techniques and I admire very much your eye for detail and balance.

thank you for taking the time to make this, very helpful

Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to make these videos and share your amazing skills and experience with your fellow modellers. I am inspired to start again a hobby I enjoyed a long time ago!

wow. I watch a lot of modellers on KZfaq. Many of them are superb but your works are always amazing to see. Great work David

Simply love your work of art!

fantastic work!

Great video. You are so talented. Sharing your skills is a great help to people like myself trying to get back into model making and improving our skills. Thank you!

I really don't get tired of watching these videos over and over again, PLASMO you are a crac brother, saludos desde México

Absolutely incredible. I would never have even thought of the crosses showing through the fabric. You have an incredible knack of noticing things like that. This model looks amazing but I suppose I shouldn't be surprised as every model you make is a work of art!

I just made my Oeffag with these steps and the overall result is very satisfying. Great tutorial!

Excellent technique, thank you for sharing.

amazing work

Clever ! Very good work ! Thank you for this tips ! Excellent !

I loved seeing the thought process at 8:15. "This way...wait...yes thats correct......wait.......yes." Great work David. Lots of thought in to the details is what sets your models apart.

That is amazing. Such attention to detail.

I have never seen that done before.....making the wings appear transparent is incredible. Well done David 👍

Excellent tutorial 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Fantastic work as usual very informative

very nice the whole assembling of this plane is very nice too!!

11:13 I call this: "How to become solid styren in a transparent styren". Fantastic work man.

Excellent job!

Fantastic, best realistic paint job ever on a model

What a brilliant job you have done on this beautiful kit! When I was a kid, we had no information on the kits we chose except the box art, now we have you bloggers, who show us how it is done, and scare the hell out of us! Thank you and all the others for giving of your time and experience! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧 Mind you, I could give you a run for your money where it comes to sculpting figures!😉😉😉☺

Wow, thank you for all the advices,

I always appreciate your work. The result is always surprisingly great. Keep up all the good work!

Impressive. Great work! Thanks

Very helpful video, thanks for sharing your techniques

The use of music in your videos is also masterful. Happy New Year,David.

Way cool! Love the shadow on the bottom of the wing and then the final rendering using oils> Fantastic Model in the end.

BEAUTIFUL!!!

Brilliant, with great tips.

Totally Amazing!

Your see-through effect was brilliant!

Amazing job

That is a very pretty model. Looks like something straight out from Rise of Flight.

Great tips and demonstration, thanks!

Felicitaciones !!! Excelente trabajo !!!

That was a fantastic video. Very easy and effective. Thank you for doing it.

That is a level of detail that is incredible.. Wow.!!

It always blows me away how such a simple technique will produce amazing results. I would be racking my brain for months trying to figure this out and try to find all these fancy materials.

Travail magnifique David.

thank you again great job thank you for sharing

Excellent video/tutorial, loved how you showed the markings showing through the fabric - nice touch (well, other than painting the 'N' backwards - lol)! Great looking model too.

Amazing...truly amazing.

Thanks for this video,i will use it for my Sopwith Camel...I always learn something when i watch your video...

I was re-watching you video for some tips on a WW1 Neiuport 17 I was building. Great work sir.

Thank you for the lovely tutorial. I am trying to mimic the way you did your wings for my WingNutWings.

Just awesome. The British would say Wizard. Thanks for the presentation as well. Most excellent.

Hi there, maybe an idea. Our aircraft painters in the hangar use mask as well. After taking out the parts where paint should go they cover up the whole mask with another layer of low tack adhesive foil. The whole lot is removed and placed on the aircraft skin, it makes it easier to place it correctly. Then the cover foil is removed and paint applied. This way the are even able tho place items that are not attached to the main mask. Cheers Andree

You are an artist

Speechless again.

Came out Very nice indeed.

That is sharp! Thank you!

Wonderful!!

This just great paining work and knowledge to learn, no matter your painting hobby. The plane turned out so nice I want to spread my Duck wings and fly with it.

Stunning. This says as much about your ability as it does about your observation skills. I am returning to modelling after a 30 year gap. The hardest part was accepting the "best of my ability" bit, but with inspiration like this...who knows? Thanks again.

what a beautiful aircraft. i have built models for many yrs. just one WWI aircraft, looking for tips. great job!!!

Excellent!

Absolutely fantastic work! I usually do scale armor but this is making me want to pick up a plane kit. Keep it up!

WOW !!!! Super video ! Vy jste prostě super modelář za mě palec nahoru ;)

Great work on the wing shading technique, and good to see someone knows it’s all reversed on the underside for a change.

I've so been wanting to find out how to do this!!!! Thanks so much!!!

Looks fantastic mate:)

Прекрасная работа! СУПЕР

The Best a ever see, great work, thank you.
