Awesome job. I would never have thought about painting so many colors, coats, lots of thinner to get the result. I really appreciate the details of doing the rigging. Thanks for taking time to share and putting all the details of materials etc.
I would so like to build one of these. But having seen yours I'm not sure my patience would hold up. Especially when it came time to do the rigging. Fantastic work.
I'm right with you. I was watching, thinking 'what a cool kit - I'd love to build it like this.' Then came the painting, and I'm thinking 'wow, that's a lot more involved than I've ever done' ... then came the rigging, and I'm thinking 'maybe a ww2 fighter instead' ...
As always a great model shown in a very professional video. A 'go to' channel always. Just thinking that if someone can't get an insulin needle to make the hook for the turnbuckles a small barbless fishing hood will do just as well.
Tremendous work. Thanks for all your videos I get a lot of ideas from what you do on here. Excellent work....My buddies all think I have skills, then I point out work like yours. Top notch stuff. 👍
Excellent build, very impressive. Do you scrape the paint off 2 parts that get glued, does the Tamiya thin glue melt through the paint? or does it just glue paint to paint? Thank You.
Looks like a really nice kit! Great build and painting, your attention to detail continues to impress - the rigging really takes it to the next level! Your videos keep getting better and better, with the painting notes, instructions superimposed in the video - just the best out there! Curious to know what software program(s) you are using???
I bought an Eduard 1/48 Fokker E. III because of this video, so I know what to do. You, sir, are a legend. Just one comment: you said you did lots of propellers, and always do them with pencil. How different/more difficult would it be if I try it with a light brown airbrush with acrylic paint, mask it, use a brush for dark brown acrylic paint, and then use oil paint for final touch?
I am planning to do all the turnbuckles for 1:48 with 0.1mm copper wires and stretched cotton swab sprues. You think it can be done? Yours were already tiny, I am skeptic if they would look good on a 1:48 plane.
With all due respect to those who like these kits, they are extremely, overly expensive despite the quality. I can buy a scale radio control Fokker, Albatros or Sopwith kit (plus the accesories, fabric and motor/batteries/electronics) for the price of two of those plastic kits (even the price of one of the largest). More fun building a real wood and canvas airplane (which is more realistic than plastic), lots of scale detail to get creative, and the satisfaction of flying your own creation than just having it static. Nonsense overly expensive and overrated kits.
Well, R/C planes and plastic modeling are two completely different hobbies! Also R/C and static models made of wood and canvas would only look realistic in much bigger scale. I also doubt your claim regarding the price of a scale R/C plane, a real rotary or radial scale engine alone would set you back a few thousand dollars, a good remote control a few hundred and so on... Although I never had a WnW kit in my hand, they seem to be awesome with a lot of research input. Overpriced maybe, but definitley no nonsense! If they are to expensive for you I would suggest 1/48 Eduard kits for WWI planes.
I really feel sorry for you guys today. the glue on the market ,today sucks. we had the good stuff from a tube. you lay a fine line ON THE PART, join them, hold for few seconds ant presto. Watching this video makes me cringe seeing how he applies glue to seams ''after'' joining together, and not before. I know it's super-glue type of glue, but still it melts the plastic which can be seen and looks very unprofessional, like a second grader built it. models being built today, just aren't appreciated like in our day.
It´s not superglue! It melts the plastic togheter but it is so thin that it sucks in the gaps to glue and evaporates so fast on the surrounding areas that you won´t see anything, at least when sparingly applied with a bit of skill! A lot of top modelers use it.

You are truly an artist that is on another level.
Awesome job. I would never have thought about painting so many colors, coats, lots of thinner to get the result. I really appreciate the details of doing the rigging. Thanks for taking time to share and putting all the details of materials etc.
Wow. Just...wow. I am in awe of your modeling talent.
Thanks. You made simple the complex things.

I love watching your work. Everything looks simple and the end result is brilliant.
Really enjoyed your approach, thanks.
Thanks for sharing. Your models are simply fantastic. The level of detailing seem unattainable, and you make it seem so easy.
These videos are keeping my going while I wait for my replacement air compressor to show up...longest wait ever lol
WOW!! You sir, are an artist. I enjoy your videos so much and learn a lot at the same time. Thank you.
As always a great model shown in a very professional video. A 'go to' channel always. Just thinking that if someone can't get an insulin needle to make the hook for the turnbuckles a small barbless fishing hood will do just as well.
Very realistic! Great Work!
Fantastic - especially the rigging and the engine cowling - thanks again for sharing this :)
Steve S yep I agree
Very impressive.👌
Beautiful! Thank you
Tremendous work. Thanks for all your videos I get a lot of ideas from what you do on here. Excellent work....My buddies all think I have skills, then I point out work like yours. Top notch stuff. 👍
Wow your video edit would've taken you ages with the instruction inserts!! Thank you for your efforts!
Beautiful
Fantastic!
GREAT WORK, excelent
I think your best build yet!!!
Sir...I watch a lot of model build videos. I only subscribe to 2...Your channel and David Damek, Plasmo. Your building skills are amazing.
You should also subscribe to toms modelling in motion
Fantastic work mate sure gives one inspiration to try one of these fantastic models
Excellent build, very impressive. Do you scrape the paint off 2 parts that get glued, does the Tamiya thin glue melt through the paint? or does it just glue paint to paint? Thank You.
Brilliant!!! You're a great modeller!!!
Bravoo !!!!! Master of masters. Grettings from Spain

Elinize sağlık. Yine güzel ve öğretici bir çalışma oldu.
There's more art here than in all the contemporary "art" museums in the entire World.
Amazing! Thank you
outstanding !!
super !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only way to discribe your work ;Zen , escape bondage to freedom . A door has been opened .
Fantastic 💛👌👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you very much! I use Adobe Premiere for editing videos.

Thank you very much! Eduard's Eindecker is great kit. If you have painting skills oils are way better than pencils. But it takes lot of time to dry.
I am planning to do all the turnbuckles for 1:48 with 0.1mm copper wires and stretched cotton swab sprues. You think it can be done? Yours were already tiny, I am skeptic if they would look good on a 1:48 plane.
Absolutely great! Now I'm sitting and thinking, how to do that in 1:72... but probably it has no sense. :D Brilliant done! ;)
This is insane!!!!
:O
Brilliant nowt more to say.
Great build. Really like all the detail. Question: What video editing software do you use?
Thank you! I use Adobe Premiere for video editing.
Stunning build but prop is too banana yellow for me and wing decals need to sit further down...
👍🏻🔥
OMG!! :D
