Ive been a Modeller for over 50 years. .still remember my first 1/72 scale Spitfire model in 1967! I hope your video inspires many to excel in our wonderful and most enjoyable hobby. Great work.
Jack Mann though a little later when I built my first spitfire, it was the 1/24th scale and bought in the town it was first designed, built and flown, it made it more special.....
@@More-Space-In-Ear Wow, that’s very cool and reminds me of one of my first kits which was the box-scale Wright Flyer by Revell which my parents bought for me when we were on holiday in Kitty Hawk, NC!
This is meticulous craftsmanship. A very well-conceived process. I was questioning the logic of some of your steps...until it all began to pull together. The end result is superb.
Sir , the way you handle tweezers you should have been a surgeon. You make it look so bloody easy. The videos are perfect always in focus and no voice droning on for for hours about what you are going to do next. Bang there it is done before your very eyes although I don't know how many of us could emulate what you do. Oh and thank you for introducing us to MrLourme's fantastic music.
every time i watch one of your videos I just think back when i was a kid making these and remembering how i thought they looked good. my goodness if i could make something this beautiful id consider my life a success.
I really enjoy watching your vids. I've been a modeler for over 30 years and find your tecniques very intresting. When I do shade and bleaching of paint I often use a slightly darker shade as a base layer than what I'm supposed to , then lighten it up very gently. To me it looks more natural and more like the sun has actually worn down the paint. Also i look at all the pics I can get my hands on of the real aircraft and see how they are actually weatherd. When it comes to weathering more is less and although it may look spectacular, many modellers really overdo it. I think you have a very nice ballance on how much you weather your models. Always use all the refrances you can get your hands on it pays off :) Very nice spitfire build :D
Plasmo, that post shading is a work of art on it`s own. plus, I applaud your dedication to masking tape. Most, (even pro`s) would just throw Maskol on there. Beautifully done.
Superb work, Martin! The Spit looks fantastic. It's great you've shown all the techniques you used. Using oils for little stains as well as very thinned black for post-shading these are definitely worth trying for great effects. Cheers, Radek
Just beautiful! I'm just starting out on modeling again now that I've retired and appreciate your video. VERY helpful. Like your choice in background music. Very cool and dramatic too.
La octava maravilla del mundo. Realmente orgulloso de poder tener a una persona tan capaz y detallista en el mundo del Aeromodelismo maquetario. Saludos de Argentina.
Amazing work, turn out really great. I've always pre shaded after primer, then top coat. Your shading after top coat with the thinned down black is awesome line control with the airbrush
An awesome job...you have a great talent...you inspire us who want to reach that level of realism in the hobby...you make it look so easy...A++++++++++++++++++
That's a sweet looking Spitfire! I see you don't pre-shade but rather post shade the panel lines with very thinned down paint after painting the model. I do that to old models that have raised panel lines and rivets, but pre-shade when they are recessed. Great result! Cheers, Martin : )
Absolutely amazing. I do have one question though… the upper surface grey looked too light to me. Was that deliberate to mimic looking at the real plane from a distance in daylight? I thought a darker sea grey would have looked more realistic. Incredible work though.
Great work...what did you brush over the wing emblem(looked white).(after they had set).was that a wash..it kinda skipped from the application back to the black wash....
14:25 painting "metal" wear patterns on propeller. Actually the Rotol constant speed propellers on Spitfires were made of a form of compressed mahogany covered with "Rotoloid" - a form of canvas and then painted. The leading edge might be protected with a thin brass strip. Thena ll painted over with FLAT black paint. There would be no metal wear marks. In fact any wear would be cause for the propeller to be changed out. Rotol Drawing number RA690/RS
Hi Plasmo your works are great and i look to your videos as to a beautiful movie ! no frills at all and really great result...and you look like very young so lots of congratulations to you ! but do you usually make post shading only with XF1 or you also make color fading with spot of lighter blue and green (in this case) ? anyway, number one ! i usually made pre-shading, but the risults never satisfied me and it's too much intricate, so thank you a lot for sharing
VERY nicely done, although I must say that a lot of modelers have this crazy obsession with over-weathering everything. Real planes rarely look as weathered as most modelers depict them. The irony is amazing....people take note, sometimes LESS is MORE.
Hi Fantastic job!! After you put the gloss coat and done all the weathering, did you spray some matt/flat coat or left it in gloss? Keep up the fantastic job!
What proportions of the Tamiya mix did you use for the underside and upper surfaces? I'm unable to colour match and have to rely on proportions or specific colours, and I do like Tamiya as a whole.
Hey David, i love your channel and your video's. You are not only getting better at moddeling but als in making the video's here. Please keep up the good work! I have one question and one request.Question: when you did the post shading with the airbrush on wich ratio did you thin the paint and how much pressure had the compressor? Request: please make a how to video on using the dremel tool. I know you shown a bit in your vid "making details" But maybe you can make a bigger video in which you explain how and why you use wich tool. I got a dremel myself but dont know where to start...greetings from Holland
+Twentecable Thank you very much. When I do postshading, I usually thin with ratio 1:5 or more. Pressure is recommended 2 bar 30 psi. Video about dremel tool? Good idea, maybe I will make it as my new year's resolution.
Moc hezké a velká inspirace pro mě. Vracím se k modelům po letech a hltám každou informaci. Jediné, co mi v tvých videiích chybí, je popis barviček a laků a všech těch vodiček. Bylo by super to tam napsat do titulku co zrovna používáš nebo nakonec nebo do popisu videa nebo alespoň mě sem do komentářů :-) Ono to tam sice na chvilku občas ukážeš, ale já se v tom ještě tolik nevyznám, abych to poznal co je co. Jakou máš pistoli a jak jsi s ní spokojený? Ješte jednou klobou dolů...
bonjour, excellent travail...le rendu est magnifique quelles teintes as-tu utilisé pour peindre le "dessus" de l'avion? tu montres les pots de XF19 XF71 XF2 pour le dessous, mais pas pour le dessus....d'avance merci
How did you mix your wash? This is a verry cool modela, Im a beginner and need some help with the weathering tecniques specially with washes. What mixture did u use on this spit for the washing? Greetings Alan
Me at the time with an american mk IXc Tunisia june 43. The Music is very nice ...opposite all thesub crap noise and too load of many videos over there...thanks because this 🙂😉👽🦅🍀
Ahoj poprosím o radu jakou používáš lepící gumu. Zatím mi každá dělá více či méně mastné fleky po sundání. Už jsem zoufalej. Předem děkuji za případnou odpověď
Martin, Excellent work, from nose to tail, very well built.Congrats! Any fit issues with this kit? I ask because Eduard's 190 D series has some gun bay and wing spar fit issues that you have to be very precise with, and sand done some pieces for a good fit. Once again beautiful Mk.IX. - Bob
Great model - I love your attention to detail and your painting skills. What are you using as the clear coat to give the model it's shine? I've heard people using future and the Tamiya spray can but is like to know what you're using.

A seriously gorgeous Spitfire - one of the nicest I've seen. Superb!

Doing this kit at the moment I think its the best fit I have ever experienced
Thanks for showing us how it should be done

Superb thumbs up to both video parts. Fantastic realism in the finish to the kit. Thank you.

Incredible. You really do justice to such a beautiful iconic plane
Tears in my eyes, I've never seen a better model then this thanks for sharing!
+Bengt Stam thanks
+PLASMO - plastic models no problem keep on going! You should make a Top 10 best modeling tips just a sugestion! :D
Top 10? :-D Surely it would be fun. Thanks for the tip.
+PLASMO - plastic models No problem! More like top 150+? :D
Beautiful work. The post shading looks awesome!
Dude this is awesome. One of the best modeling I've ever seen.
Amazing work, turn out really great. I've always pre shaded after primer, then top coat. Your shading after top coat with the thinned down black is awesome line control with the airbrush
What an wonderful and precice job. It´s only an ordinary Spitfire, but it is and it will be an awesome piece because it´s an ordinary Spitfire.
You are a true master mate! You make such beautiful work look SO effortless....Its amazing!
who the hell can give his work a thumb down I don't noo,is work is amazing..
Beautiful job on your Spit Martin. Very nicely done.
Your hands are so steady in airbrushing those panel lines. Wat a pro, bro :)
An awesome job...you have a great talent...you inspire us who want to reach that level of realism in the hobby...you make it look so easy...A++++++++++++++++++
Love your work I managed to picked up a few good pointers thanks!
The Spitfire succeeded very well! Incredibly great work!
That really is a thing of beauty. Some very useful techniques as well; thank you.
I really enjoyed this. A really fantastic job
You're a wizard! Phenomenal work!
That's a sweet looking Spitfire! I see you don't pre-shade but rather post shade the panel lines with very thinned down paint after painting the model. I do that to old models that have raised panel lines and rivets, but pre-shade when they are recessed. Great result! Cheers, Martin : )
Very impressive at such a small scale !
Wow!! amazing job! the plane looks incredible!
Perfect as usual, great work martin look forward to youre next build
Great work on the spitfire plasmo , a true master. Did you use a low air pressure whist post shading?
I'm very impressed all I can say is AWESOME !
Excellent video & job building your Spitfire!!
Absolutely amazing. I do have one question though… the upper surface grey looked too light to me. Was that deliberate to mimic looking at the real plane from a distance in daylight? I thought a darker sea grey would have looked more realistic. Incredible work though.
Great work...what did you brush over the wing emblem(looked white).(after they had set).was that a wash..it kinda skipped from the application back to the black wash....
Absolutely fantastic and well detailed!Your mother should be proud with such a talanted person :D
T a l a n t e d
Super Martin. You are truly a professional. I take my hat off to you.Thanks for sharing.
Awesome build man, thanks for sharing, I learned so much. Take it easy.
Fantastic job ! Really interesting to follow and very well filmed. See you soon on your others videos.
Excellent work, a pleasure to watch an experienced hand..!!
Awesome work as ever. though I am not personally a fan of panel lines being shaded in that manner you have made another stunner of a model.
Nice work! What color you used for the raf sky on the band and the propeller?

Wow interesting
What a beautiful job!!! I love it
What airbrush did you use for this model?
Did you overcoat the decals with gloss coat before applying the oils? Thanks

Martine to je NĚCO !!! paráda veliká PARÁDA !!!
Thank you for uploading this video. I enjoyed watching and learnt a lot from this.
Fantastic paintjob and weathering! Could you please tell me what thinner you use to spray tamiya/gunze paints with airbrush?
Thanks & greetings!
what weathering wash did you use and what did you use to remove the wash afterwards?
Hi Fantastic job!! After you put the gloss coat and done all the weathering, did you spray some matt/flat coat or left it in gloss?
Keep up the fantastic job!
Wow nice build mate I cant seem to get the panel lines to stand out what is te best way to do it
Graham
How long do you let your wash dry? Great video! Keep it up!
What proportions of the Tamiya mix did you use for the underside and upper surfaces? I'm unable to colour match and have to rely on proportions or specific colours, and I do like Tamiya as a whole.
I wish I could say nice job; but that would be too much of an understatement. DANG! Beautiful Spit!!!

+PLASMO - plastic models cool I would very much like the dremel video :-)Do you use accrylic or enemal paint for the post shading?
I used acrylic colors.
Velmi krásné,výborná práce.
Nice build Plasmo
do you scribe panel lines before or after priming the model?
Moc hezké a velká inspirace pro mě. Vracím se k modelům po letech a hltám každou informaci. Jediné, co mi v tvých videiích chybí, je popis barviček a laků a všech těch vodiček.

Oki, díky vyzkouším ;-)
Excellent Martin. Do you recommend the Tamiya panel line solution. What do you use to remove the excess?
how do you post shade... what PSI and paint:thinner ratio do you use
bonjour, excellent travail...le rendu est magnifique
quelles teintes as-tu utilisé pour peindre le "dessus" de l'avion? tu montres les pots de XF19 XF71 XF2 pour le dessous, mais pas pour le dessus....d'avance merci
+jo DSP Green xf-58 + xf-62, Blue xf-18 + xf-21 + xf-24, all is in video.
Thank you for such a captivating video.
Nice video! I wonder what airbrush gun and compressor you use?
+Lauch Bert Airbrush is hansa 581 and Compresor is just compresor.
How did you mix your wash? This is a verry cool modela,
Im a beginner and need some help with the weathering tecniques specially with washes.
What mixture did u use on this spit for the washing?
Greetings
Alan
Nice Spit...
please can you tell me what tools do you use to make rivet?
kindly,
George
t\hanks man! nice tutorial.
This is a masterpiece!
Me at the time with an american mk IXc Tunisia june 43. The Music is very nice ...opposite all thesub crap noise and too load of many videos over there...thanks because this 🙂😉👽🦅🍀
Great work! I would like you to tell me what is the wash at 13:48.
Ahoj poprosím o radu jakou používáš lepící gumu. Zatím mi každá dělá více či méně mastné fleky po sundání. Už jsem zoufalej. Předem děkuji za případnou odpověď
Amazing! Would love to write music for your build videos. Just incredible to watch.
WOW super praca. Krasne si ho postaval !!!
Let me ask you, why you do not priming your model?
beautiful job on the seatbelts may I ask what the dimensions for making scratch built seat for a 1/48 scale aircraft
Is it Blu-Tac or something similar that you use for camo's ?
Nádhera! Máš šikovný ruce
Martin, Excellent work, from nose to tail, very well built.Congrats! Any fit issues with this kit? I ask because Eduard's 190 D series has some gun bay and wing spar fit issues that you have to be very precise with, and sand done some pieces for a good fit. Once again beautiful Mk.IX. - Bob
excellent work. Congratulations
Great model - I love your attention to detail and your painting skills. What are you using as the clear coat to give the model it's shine? I've heard people using future and the Tamiya spray can but is like to know what you're using.
Paul G from other videos ive noticed he uses 'MR. Colour Super Clear 3', im not sure if thats what he uses here but it might be worth a look
Your post-shading is beyond amazing. What's the ratio - something like 10 % paint 90 % thinner?
+Erlend Sæbø Yes, something like that. Maby 1:5
Hello! You could not write which colors were mixed and used for coloring?
Just on the video not the whole palette is shown.
Do you make your own masks for the clear canopy parts or are they bought ones?
It is not profipack so I made own from tamiya masking tape.
Nice Job ! why don't you use Mascol for the camouflagee of the wings? it's a lot simplier than the way you do it
May i ask what kind of brush it is that you use for your very fine details in the cockpit?
tamiya pointed brush small www.amazon.com/Tamiya-87017-Pointed-Brush-Small/dp/B000BMYWY2
thanks alot
when you took the oil wash off did you just use a dry paper towel or did you put alittle bit of mineral spirits on it?
+Les Laxson Just dry paper towel.
Jaké jsi používal laky ??
do u use acrylic wash the same way?
Have you ever done a P-40 Warhawk?
not jet
What colours did you use?
